There's a difference between the ability to be social, and the desire to be social. I function perfectly fine going outside and talking to people, but that doesn't mean I *like* doing either.

Pepsi and Milk, also known as an affront to everything good in this world. And my tastebuds.

Pilk seems to be trending, so I tried it. Anyone who tells me this is a good drink is no longer a person I wish to associate with.

Bio

The day that Moss was hanged, eight others were cut down,
And when the graves had all been dug, the queen rode out of town.

(I have a badly written 1x1 check if you want to know what kind of person I am.)

I haven't disappeared- just been inactive in everything. Having nothing to do all day left me in a writing rut for the whole of August- hopefully I'll get my groove back once I go to school tomorrow. I've been making some good progress on the Lite/Maisy duel, but it's still going to take until at least the end of the week to finish at the rate we're going.
@Ammokkx
I kinda purposely left it vague. I'm game for doing stuff if you are.


Leaving it vague just means people won't know where to look for you, so I could have Rura move from the safari to somewhere else but I'd need a location for her to (maybe literally) bump into your character.
Oh, so duels were happening.

People should probably mention this.
I was kinda hoping for someone to stumble onto Rura but I guess that isn't happening-

Unless @Scarifar is planning on interacting with her, I could probably find some kind of excuse for her to go to the pool (maybe wanting to soothe Tidal? also she can't actually talk to spirits or anything, she just likes taking care of her cards) or I could do something with @Clanjos' character... the only issue is that I have no clue when or where any of his stuff is happening.
I'm far from dead, guis. I've just not been very inspired for anything, and you might not get another reply out of me for a week or two. I want to wait for school to start again, and start properly, so I have something to take my mind off of everything and make my writing less uninspired.
@Ariamis You should apply to become a stormtrooper.
Bright, blue skies with only a few errant clouds dotting it set the tone for the day, the sun having free reign to shine down from above. It didn't seem like a droplet of rain would fall from the sky, not this day. The water misting fan rigged over one of the seats in the audience had been turned off. The occupant of the seat was not bothered by the sun shining down on her skin, heating up the entire body. She sat with her eyes closed, half-heartedly listening to the dull announcement made by the grandstanding showoff at the very bottom. This contestant, Õja Rura, respected Seto Kaiba only for his dueling prowess but not for his attitude.

Once the announcement was over, Rura was finally allowed to leave this overdesigned stadium and be left to her own devices. She waited for the crowd to disperse a little before getting up herself, unwilling to be caught in a crowd of weak-minded individuals. When she stepped out of the arena she was met with more blazing sunlight, two cards jutting out of her deck in response. Rura took them and held them up high in the direction of the sun. The shade the cards cast on themselves obscured their artwork but the levels three and seven, as well as the FIRE orb in the top right corner were all still visible.

"...Yeah, I know. This reminds you of home."

Rura muttered to herself and slid the cards back into her deck, taking a quick look around. Sticking around the amphitheater wasn't going to get Rura anywhere, but she still had to fill the day. She raised up the duel disk strapped to her arm and stared down at it for a few moments, then glanced at one of the guiding boards nearby. All distractions seemed like they would be fitting places for parts of her deck, but none of them looked interesting as a diversion. Still, the woman didn't have much choice in the matter. Rura headed in the direction of the safari park, mildly curious to see what animals this egomaniac decided to buy with his excessive wealth. It took some navigating and dodging people with the same idea as her, but eventually Rura found her way to the zone proper.

There were paths laid out to follow which were decorated to look like part of the environment, but it didn't seem like there was anything stopping visitors from going off of them and exploring on their own. Rura didn't feel particularly adventurous today and decided to go along one of the dirt roads, only mildly glancing to the side to see if there were any animals around. She eventually came to a more dense tropical forest, with thick foliage and unbelievably tall trees. The woman was hit with a wave of nostalgia and decided to take a break in the area, leaning against one of those trees and cooling off in the shade. Much like before, she took out two cards of her deck and stared down at them. This time they were levels four and seven with the EARTH orb donning their top right.

"...Daichi..." Rura muttered to herself, looking solemn and lost in thought.
Anybody else working on duels or should we move to tests or something?


I mean, I'm working on one with Tree but I'm going to be honest, I've been kind of neglecting it and everything else right now. I was actually kind of hoping for other people to be dueling in the meanwhile, but that isn't happening apparently.

I know for a fact Sat is working on something, though.
I could say Kaiba World has a gold course but that'd just take away from the card games.


You're saying this as if you can't do both.

EDIT: Got something out. Figured since you didn't reply to my question that the answer was 'no' so I scrapped my original idea and did something else.
Wait, how are you even going to interact with people if you're cooped up in a hotel room?
Isn't that counterintuitive?


Yes. Yes it would be.

Which is why I would naturally have my character move out of the room.

Just because I would start a post in a location does not mean I have to end in that location.
