Xenos's Penthouse Apartment
-Xenos leans against the railing on his balcony, looking down on the streets below-
Wonder what Jean's up to... haven't seen her since I left her to her own devices around here.
-he sighs, while sipping a cup of coffee-
The Park
-Cappro starts off his day, removing the tarpaulin from the picnic table he was sleeping under-
-he stretches his muscles, and sighs deeply- Servant business just adds more to my life, I can already feel it.

-Cappro might be able to see the small blue-haired, eye patched boy looking at that doll of his.

-...What's a little boy doing with a girly doll anyway?-

Streets - Nearby Xenos's Penthouse (Jean)
-Jean's walking along the sidewalk, looking a tad worn out.-
-It was a struggle, but she managed to find someplace to stay. Apparently some girl named Frey was willing to let her stay at her new farm if she helped out around there.-
-Jean's not really experienced with crops, but she agreed. After all, it meant a roof over her head.-
-But working hard on a farm during the morning combined with still being worn out because of the fight against the Skaven means that she's definitely looking tired.-
"I didn't expect taking care of plants to be so hard..."
-SO MANY CROPS TO PLANT.-
-SO MANY CROPS TO WATER.-
-SO MANY CROPS.-
-SO MANY CROPS.-

Well, speak of the pharaoh... -he says to himself as he sees Jean down on the street-
-he thinks to himself, sips his coffee-
-the coffee finished, he calmly puts down his mug-
-and vaults over the balcony railing-
-landing with a thump behind Jean- Looking worn out even after a few days, huh?
The Park
-Cappro does indeed see 108 and quietly observes for the moment, before putting on his helmet-

-Jean wasn't really expecting the sudden thud, and quickly turns to face Xenos.-
-She naturally relaxes when she realizes it's him.-
"Oh, uh... Hey, Xenos."
-She looks a tad sheepish at the mention of her looking tired.-
"I've been helping around at Frey's farm in exchange for a place to stay. Not used to the farm work..."
-All of those video games made it seem so easy!-
-Even if she's been training with punches, it doesn't really make other muscles much stronger.-
-...On the bright side working on the farm's definitely going to build some body strength.-

Park (108)
-He hasn't looked up yet, and instead is still staring at the doll, as if not even certain of what to do with it.-
"How would she feel if I move her arm?"
-He asks that aloud with that blank tone.-
-He fiddles with the doll's arm a little.-
-He strangely seems a tad uncertain though...-
"...I do—-n't think she would be happy..."
-If it were him...-
"...I would be confused. Would she be confused as well?"
-...Seems like he's trying to speak with the doll, but it's extremely awkward seeming...-
-He's speaking at the doll, wondering what it would do...-
-This boy is very strange, Cappro...-

-Cappro is a little confused-
-but he soon seems to get the idea of what's going on- So, did you ask them their name?
The Streets
Excellent, farm work. That'll help you out in the long run.
-he folds his arms- Round out your character, build up muscles.
In fact just wearing the traveller form should've been helping out with that a little. Higher forms require more than just spiritual exertion.
-he leans against the wall- But it's ultimately good that you found a place either way.
If you hadn't by now, I was probably going to suggest grabbing an apartment in the same building as mine.
Still! How are things?

-Aichi looks towards Cappro upon realizing he has company.-
"Hello."
-He looks back down at the doll.-
"...No, I have—n't. I—'m supposed to name her, but I am uncertain of what her name should be."
-...Although...-
"...I can—'t explain it, but she is familiar. I think I—'ve seen her before."
-In reality he recognizes her because the deck Leos bought him has High Dog Breeder, Akane in it, but alas, he doesn't seem to remember it at the moment.-
-He fiddles with the doll's ponytail as well, still seeming uncertain of what he should actually be doing with the doll.-

Streets (Jean)
-Yeah, now that he mentions it, she thinks it did help a bit.-
-She smiles a little upon the fact that it'll help in the long run.-
"Yeah, I think you're right..."
-She hadn't considered it, but perhaps it really will help boost her strength more than she realizes.-
-An apartment near Xenos...-
"I would have, but I don't exactly have a lot of cash on me..."
-She would have needed to arrange something, and sadly she isn't really sure how to go about talking with whoever's in charge about dealing with payment.-
-With Frey she just needs to work on the farm for free, which she honestly doesn't mind doing when there's a roof over her head.-
"Other than farming throwing me for a loop, I'm doing pretty good. Been busy with getting Frey's crops dealt with while she takes care of finding a carpenter..."
-Frey's wanting to upgrade the house, but sadly she has yet to find a carpenter...-
The Streets
I didn't pay for my apartment, Jean. A few of the apartments in the building are just free-lease.
It's free real estate.
And I got the penthouse up there. -he points right up to his balcony- In fact, that's where I saw you from.
So I decided to drop by and say hi.
The Park
The internet could probably help you with that.
Random name generators, or something- to give you ideas, and then let your heart take over.
Of course, you could always just name it after something it reminds you of.

-Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa! Wait a sec!-
"You're telling me that they have free apartments?!"
-She seems absolutely baffled by this.-
"You mean I could have just... gotten a free apartment..."
-...-
-...Wow. Talk about her luck.-
—
Park (108)
-The internet... He knows of the internet. He has actually managed to access it with his computer.-
-It is surreal to him. It's like searching through a database, but not.-
"Random name generator? You mean it—'s possible to generate a name, rather than make one yourself?"
-He seems a tiny bit surprised by this.-
"..."
-He looks back down at the doll, seeming to be thinking.-
"...I—'m not certain. I want to know what she reminds me of..."
-Once he learns it, then he'll go from there...-
Park
Well, just think about what you've seen before.
Things you've owned, movies you've watched.
I don't know.
But yeah, you can generate names. There's even books that are just filled with different names and their meanings.
People will probably think you're an expecting father though.
The Streets
Yeah, but hey! The farm's good for you.
1.5 imperial gallons of tea were consumed during the writing of this postStreets (Jean)
-Yeah... That's true. Not to mention that Jean doesn't really want to go back on her agreement with Frey.-
"...Yeah, the farm work's going to be good."
-Just try to look on the bright side of things for once, Jean!-
-Even if you're absolutely mentally kicking yourself!-
—
Park (108)
-...Huh? They would think he is an expecting father?-
"Come again?"
-He seems confused about this.-
-Think about things he owns... Movies he's watched...-
"..."
-His only possession other than his doll is...-
-...!-
"I remember...!"
-There's a tiny bit of happiness in his voice upon realizing just what it was he was thinking of.-
-He quickly pulls out his deck, and begins looking through it.-
-He finally stops on a card.-
"High Dog Breeder, Akane."
-He holds up the card for Cappro to see.-
-Ah, this does match that doll very closely!-
"She is like High Dog Breeder, Akane...!"
-Awww... He's got a little smile now!-
-The poor boy's not used to comparing things like this, so it didn't really dawn on him that the doll resembles Akane.-

Whatdoyaknow, she does as well.
Well, lad, I think there you have it for a name. Akane.
The Streets
Oh, I lost track of Mimic when I dropped him off here before, by the way.
So who knows when he'll turn up. I just know he wasn't caught up in the end of the world.
1.5 imperial gallons of tea were consumed during the writing of this postPark (108)
-Yep, Aichi's happy now. He's got that adorable small smile as he looks at the doll and card.-
"Her name—'s Akane...!"
-He's glad she has a name now!-
-...!-
"I think she would be happy too...!"
-He can imagine that Akane would be happy to finally have a name. He's happy to have his, after all!-

Streets (Jean)
-Xenos hasn't seen Mimic since then?-
"Do you think he's OK...?"
-Jean can't help but be very worried. Even if he apparently made it out, who knows if he's all right.-
-Sure, he's a robot, but still!-
The Streets
He'll be fine. I doubt there's much out here right now that could seriously put Mimic in danger.
Plus, he has threat analysis. He knows what he can and can't fight in his configurations.
And I haven't given him access to the other forms that I saw the original Legend take, yet.
The Park
Well yea, having a name's great.
But there's only so much you can live out in your mind with just one doll.
Consider gettin' another one once you're used to that one.
Then you can start thinkin' about the kinds of adventures they might go on.

-He should get more dolls? Will that help him use his imagination too?-
"I should get more...?"
-...He doesn't have money...-
-...Although...-
-He looks down at his deck.-
-They are warriors, and on Planet Cray they would most likely do interesting things...-
-Blaster Blade especially is a legendary hero, and surely he'd have amazing adventures... Like all of those TV shows he's seen!-
-Maybe he can imagine that too!-
"...Can I imagine Blaster Blade and the other Royal Paladin units on adventures too?"
—
Streets (Jean)
-Yeah, that's true...-
"Right..."
-He's so human-like in that form, so she can't help but worry about him like she would anyone else.-
-...Legend has that many forms?-
"How many forms did he have?"
-She knows that the guy was apparently really strong, but...-
Edited by CrystalMemoria on Dec 3rd 2018 at 12:51:14 PM
The Streets
You've met him at his base form, that's just the one based on him personally. It's not based on any recreated legend.
His other forms that I've seen have included... -he thinks to himself-
Well it'd be kind of a spoiler if I said the specific figures.
But his final form's also based on him personally. I believe he called it 'Forged Legend'
-he sighs, and taps his foot slightly- Man, wish I could remember the names of the other forms... I know one held a sword, but that's no help at all is it?
Legendary swords are dime-a-dozen on earth.
The Park
Yea, anythin' works for imagination.
It's all about inspiration, not just your mind.
Think of it like this: the imagination's your engine, and inspiration's the fuel.

-'Imagination's your engine, and inspiration is the fuel'...-
"...Imagination is a vehicle?"
-...Seems like he doesn't really get it, Cappro.-
—
Streets (Jean)
-So there really is a lot of them...-
"Not much you can do if you can't remember them all..."
-Especially considering Mimic's based on Xenos's memories of the guy.-
-Although...-
"...What's the story behind 'Forged Legend'?"
-...Or, um...-
"I-If it's not private or a spoiler or anything."
The Streets
I mean, I don't know Tomomi's story personally.
But Forged Legend was what he pulled out last before I beat him to the curb. He's not dead or anything, in fact he could come here potentially, and that'd be awkward.
So, as far as I know his story- Forged Legend is the realisation of his own power, rather than the imitation of legends. It's the crystallisation of being a legend, I guess you could say.
The Park
Yea, it's the vehicle of creativity.
Metaphorically.
1.5 imperial gallons of tea were consumed during the writing of this postPark (108)
-Metaphorically...?-
"Imagination transports creativity? I do—n't understand."
-He still seems confused.-
"It—'s not based on the hypothetical?"

Streets (Jean)
-The realization of his own power... The crystallization of a legend...-
"Wow..."
-The idea of that sounds really cool, and it's probably pretty easy to tell that it's awe-inspiring to her.-
"Something like that..."
-...That's what she wants to be able to achieve...-
-She can't really see herself getting there, but it's what she wants to achieve.-
-To have a true strength that could be used to help people...-
The Streets
Something like that is exactly what you want as well.
However, my belt's based on changing your fate. Small difference I know, but.
Still pretty awe-inspiring if I do say so myself.
The Park
Oh yeah, that's kinda what its' about.
You need imagination to be creative, and you need inspiration to be imaginative.
It's like a set of dominos, ya knock one over and the rest'll follow through.
You get inspired by your Baster Blades and your Dog Breeder Akanes, imagine their adventures, and then you've created something in your head.
1.5 imperial gallons of tea were consumed during the writing of this postStreets (Jean)
-Yeah, it is!-
"Yeah, the idea of changing your life..."
-It's also incredible.-
"...It's amazing. To tap into your own strength, and the ability to change fate... Those are things I've always enjoyed seeing heroes strive for."
-And... maybe with enough practice...-
"...I hope I can get there too..."

Park (108)
-So he needs to start with his doll and cards? And eventually he'll be able to imagine even more?-
"Okay...!"
-Aichi will try his hardest to imagine it!-
-...-
-...Is this what Kai had wanted him to do when they met...?-
-The words Kai said to him blurred together in his memory, as they meant nothing at the time, but...-
-...He thinks back... and suddenly it pieces together for him.-
<Come on! Just imagine it! Imagine yourself being as strong as him.>
-...Imagine himself strong like Blaster Blade...-
<Imagination will become your strength!>
-Imagine... Imagine!-
"I understand now...! This is what Kai wanted me to do when he gave me Blaster Blade...!"

And the brain's in your head. That's where your thoughts come from.
