"What even are these? Human knockoff bands? Come on, who would even do something like this...?" Uzi walks her fingers along the CD selections, but nothing catches her eye. Correction, nothing good. A lot of these bands have similar names to ones she know from back home, but they're all humans instead.

"Is this some kind of sick joke?" she mutters. She starts listing off the real bands as she spots the impostors. "My Chemical Robots, Fallout Bot, Linkin Port, Desktop Confessional, Funeral For A File, Panic! At the Disc, Blink-182-Bit, R.O.M., Green Data...! I hate this place!"

She raises one of the CDs above her head before realizing that if she smashes it on the ground, they'd probably make her pay for it. Teenage rebellion gives way to teenage resignation, and she carefully puts it back in its spot.

But someone's been watching her- or maybe they've just been nearby and Uzi's self-consciousness thinks they've been watching- and this girl looks... trendy. Uzi doesn't have a great history with teens like that, but the people in this city have been pretty nice so far, so...?

the familiarity of controlled, measured, managed cursed energy cannot be overlooked. non-shamans do not do this, but shamans do it like breathing. he does not know this girl, of course ( student-aged... one of the school's, maybe ; and isn't that a novel thought, someone even distantly familiar even here ) but he does approach her as if he knows her.

overly familiar, maybe. his fake smile certainly seems to give that impression, even as he searches her own expression in turn.

"pardon me ! but can i trouble you for your name?" he begins, then holds up his index finger. "and... maybe even place of education."

Welcome back to scenic Isola Radiale, Nobara!

You will be housed at the Itadori Residence.

You will retain everything from your previous stay.

Enjoy your captivity!

Siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiigh.

Eiden's flopped over the counter of a juice bar, cheek plushed against the table, body completely limb as he miserably stares on the counter.

[ text ] will give details when im there!!! [ text ] long story but its kind of a short one

It doesn't take long for Vash to show up; even after the move into his own home, he's still not that far away from where Kugisaki lives. One arm over-full with everything he could possibly need, his free hand has to fumble with the nob a few times before finally getting it open.

"You're a life saver!" he calls out, peering around the side of the near mountain in his arm as he passes the foyer. "My brother and the little guy live too far out for me to ransack their kitchens." That, and he's not sure Knives would be overly fond of Vash's takeover if he knew what it was for.

The bag gets deposited on the counter gingerly before reaching in and grabbing the eggs off the top just to make sure none splat against any hard surfaces.

"Mm… Nevermind, I'll come back later," He sighs in defeat.

Hi >/

But at least her shift was almost over! She just had one flyer left, and there was a girl that looked to be around her age!

"Cluck! Cluck! Take a flyer, please!" Honestly the clucking wasn't part of her job description, she'd just be doing it to be more "in character".
