Honestly, what was wrong with some of the Harpwood University students? It was supposed to be a prestigious campus, yet they just leave their trash lying around for some maid to pick up. If they didn’t have to be such slobs, Red would have less work to do. But no, they just leave their junk all over the place, resulting in Red having to meander around campus holding trash bags, picking up wrappers, bottles, just anything lying on the floor. If some kid lost his term paper somewhere on the floor, Red wouldn’t be sorry. Their fault for just throwing it on the floor and not caring about it.

\\ Nightfall. It was summer, so it was exceedingly hot in Brieves, the heat still lingering throughout the night. Even worse, it was raining. Raining on a humid night, and guess what Red was doing. He was looking for a place to sleep. The rain had caused quite a bit of following, making it hard for Red to find a dry place to sleep. Everything was closed by now due to the rain, and Red was already soaked, exhausted, and just miserable. It was just too hot for him to continue on like this.

"Dammit, where's a bus shelter when you need one?" Red muttered under his breath as he dashed through the rain. He didn't know where he was, he was just running through various streets, looking for somewhere to sleep without being kicked out or shooed away. So far, he was having no luck.

And karma's a bitch. Already drowning in misfortune, Red wasn't looking where he was going, slipped on something, and ended up plunging into a river. "...Fuck." Now Red was soaked, exhausted, sticky, and 10 times more miserable than before.

"At least there's a bus shelter here..." Red finally found a place to sleep after what felt like hell. It was in front of an apartment, but who would be heartless enough to shoo him away from there? Hopefully he wouldn't meet someone like that tonight. For now, he'll just rest. Tomorrow he'll assess the damage made to his body and the damage to his knapsack.

“I feel so sore today…” after getting ready for the day, Red assumed that the aching in his joints would go away. However, the pain didn’t fade away, and it just irritated Red. “Maybe I should stretch…” With that, Red started doing some basic stretches, ranging from stretching his arms to doing the splits.

alright here's my tracker lmao

\\ Red knew it was pretty risky. To fall asleep in an empty field was only an invitation for animals or for muggers to attack. Furthermore, the grass would stain his clothes, and he would smell like nature. However, the grass was the closest thing to a bed he had felt recently. It was just so comfortable… he’d probably regret it later, but for the moment, he felt utter bliss.

The first thing Red woke up to was the sound of buzzing insects. The grass no longer felt comfortable, and now it was just itchy. His clothes were stained with a yellow-greenish color, and he had a major headache. Plus, he had gotten the attention of a certain blond man.

\\ So why exactly was Red Takahashi walking around Harpwood University completely soaked from head to toe?

Some sink in a classroom was broken, and Red had to go and fix it. It was an easy fix, but it didn’t come without its problems. The sink was spewing water everywhere when Red initially checked it out, and when he tried to get close to it, a torrent of water decided to barrage him. After a few minutes of fighting with the water (strange, isn’t it?) he eventually managed to get it under control. However, it didn’t come without damage to Red. He got drenched while trying to calm the mad faucet down, and he was probably going to catch a cold if he didn’t hurry back to the storage room.

\\ If Red did have a favorite pastime other than doing homework, doing his job, or looking for food, it was making friends with cats. Mostly just stray cats, but who cares about rabies anyway? Red didn’t.

He meets cats all the time, at least one cat every day. Today, he stumbled across a ginger tabby after getting off from work. Red looked around, making sure no one else was there before kneeling down to start communicating with the cat.

“You’re a cute one, aren’t you…” Red extended his hand out to the cat as a request to pet the cat. The cat nuzzled his hand, and Red started scratching its ears. “So….. do you have a name?” his childish side started to rear its head, whenever he was around cats he would act less like a 16 year old and more like a 5 year old. However, soon after, the cat suddenly ran away, appearing to be startled.

“Ah? Why are you running away?” Red reached out for the cat, but the cat was already gone. Putting two and two together, he deduced that someone had come out of nowhere and bothered the cat.

\\ Being almost entirely broke had its pros and cons.

Today was one of those days where Red regretted leaving Tokyo with almost nothing. Looking for dinner was probably the hardest task of the day, especially when all the cheap restaurants had subpar quality food, and all the expensive restaurants had the great meals. Red knew he had to be frugal, but still, eating fast food pretty much every day was bad for his health. It wasn’t his fault that all the healthy foods were way out of his budget. He suddenly stopped in front of an Italian restaurant, intrigued by the scent of the shop. Pasta really sounded good right now….. but when Red took a look at the price, he cringed. Those were… some pretty pricey plates. Just a bowl of pasta was 49 euro. Nevertheless, he might have enough spare money. Red pulled out his funds to see if he had enough to buy it.
