ā ā¹ DOPPO is in a fog, his natural state of being -- and he feels in down to his bones. His eyes are heavy and he feels the gentle tug of sleep at his consciousness even if heās apt to ignore it right now. Anxiety, a constant fuel beneath his skin, propels him forward; itās only mid-day and he really doesnāt have any excuse to be so tired.
It is his fault, though, that heās so sleepy -- he should have been better at making sure his sleep schedule was consistent since getting here. He let himself sleep in once and since then...
The internal monologue of berating himself is indeed cut short the moment he enters a small bookstore. Heās not sure what made him come in here (except, maybe, the idea of coffee and a comfortable chair) but itās one of the people he distinctly does not want to see that causes him to pause.
He stares at Gentaro for a moment before taking a step to the side in an attempt to hide behind some bookcases, hoping he hasnāt seen him. He sighs, leans against the bookshelf and causes a precariously balanced pile of books to tumble down with a loud thud.
āOh... great.ā
