The city was large. It was definitely interesting: she preferred the more populated sections of any given area, but would much rather be isolated in whatever typical crappy, college student-destined apartment she could find. Perhaps the loud noises that were only dulled by the thickness of a room's walls and the fixed height of which her apartment grew from the cracked concrete and into the atmosphere were the best background noise for her, as permanent silence forever dwelling within the very corners of the room and always, always seeping from the dark edges and leaking onto the ceilings and floors and suffocating Gumi, but most of all, deafening her ears and numbing her nostrils.
One thing she was not appreciative of was the lack of consistency. It was as if there were five separate cities combined into one, a mere label messily glued and all borders forgotten, long evaporated into the air. Inconsistency and change were two far too common things Gumi could never come to feel even merely neutral towards.
West Zion was a mess. It was too -- beyond -- dirty for even her low tastes, and she figured she may as well, even if she did not view getting outside even every so often as an activity that could even slightly be interpreted asĀ funĀ or some other variation of that, that she would at least appreciate an area in which her lungs could at least somewhat properly function and her mouth did not ache from the gas that was surely soon to replace most of all the surrounding available oxygen.
She was wet, though. The river water heavily weighed upon her clothes, and the stray, passerby cat that had been her target was currently nowhere to be found. Gumi had never seen a feline so eager to jump into cold, yet still evening, water just in order to escape the small drips of affection of a regularly cold young human.
"...Ah..." It was more of a groan than anything. She had walked all this distance here, after all, and now the wind was much bitter than previously. Not exactly an ideal travelling partner.
