Likely so. Perhaps we can go searching for it - ah.

[he says, but if tsuru's getting them hella lost, there's no reason to presume why they wouldn't just. drive right past it.]

That one.

[preowned]

[ the way that tsuru just fucking SLAMS on the brakes, and luckily there is no one behind them or else they would have definitely just caused an accident. ]

Let's go look!

[ he is going to break some traffic laws to park it's fine ]

[unsaid]

[he'd respond

if he didn't just get choked out by his seatbelt hello

he's just going to be turning to the side and coughing for a second]

[preowned]

[ he is...... not apologetic whatsoever, it's horrible.

but once he's parked, he'll innocently look over at jiji while he unbuckles. ]

Is everything okay?

[ as if it wasn't his fault ]

[unsaid]

... maybe I should look into getting a chauffeur again...?

[he won't complain directly though, no....]

If we're already here then there's no trouble, I suppose.

[tsuru literally violated traffic to get them here]

[preowned]

Oh, that's too bad.

[ about the chauffeur

but it's fine. this is a busy part of the city so there's probably like, also stores around as well so it's fine. ]

A quick look won't hurt!

[unsaid]

I think you take too much pleasure in these 'joy rides', my crane.

[but it's fine there's so much to do here! also do you remember how they kept lockers by the retrospec building in order to get memorabilia - jiji's going to wander toward those now]

Have these always been here?

[no]

[preowned]

Maybe it was built for the building?

[ he tilts his head. admittedly, it's not like he actively lives here so it wouldn't be too hard for him to miss a new building springing up between now and his last visit.

but he'll walk over to peek through the windows... it looks like a normal lobby. ]

[unsaid]

[mikazuki is going to inspect the mailboxes and




try to open every single one]

Interesting, interesting... Perhaps this is what they call a corporate takeover?

[preowned]

It's impressive, especially since they managed to get that thing on our phone.

[ tsuru says this, when he has accidentally downloaded so many things. but the fact that the app can't be seen by other people is very uh

suspect ]

How do they do it, I wonder.

[unsaid]

... well, I suppose that now is as good a time as any for an old man such as myself to learn a new trick or two.

[i can't believe that jiji has to research technology and retrospec now? he's going to break it.

but there is an odd click suddenly when one of the lockers actually manages to nudge open instead of resisting his curiosity]

Oh....?

[preowned]

[ the sound of the click catches his attention, and he'll wander back to mikazuki to nestle at his side. ]

Is there anything inside?

[ how did jiji break it ]

[unsaid]

Let us find out.

[as he moves to nudge the door open so that he can reach inside? what he manages to pull out is -

an omamori. you know, the kind that the saniwa gives to swords in order to keep them from breaking the kind that lune ended up keeping on his person out of habit and yet he still broke from the force of a meteor strike after corruption not that mikazuki knows this!]

Hm... lucky?

[preowned]

[ SHUT THE FUCK UP

but interesting... that gets him nosy enough that tsuru will obnoxiously attempt to open all of the lockers as well. ]

I wonder if all of the lockers have one of those?

[unsaid]

[wow i was just giving context

mikazuki will just move to put the omamori in his coat pocket - he can't help but feel as though it belongs there - as he watches tsurumaru try to open the others

then he'll move to close the locker again - and hum softly when his attempt to reopen it is denied]

.... I suppose there's no way to find out but to try. Though it would appear as though once it's empty, it will seal itself again.

[preowned]

Is that so...

[ no luck, none of them open for him. he pouts for a second, before pointing over at the building. ]

It's locked. But there doesn't seem to be anyone inside, so I don't know if it's simply closed or what.

[ it's the middle of the day though, which is an odd time for a business to be closed. ]

[unsaid]

Hm... Do you think we ought to make an appointment? Or shall we try to enter via the garage?

[what garage

he's just going to start looking around and see if there's another way to get in]

[preowned]

We can try both...

[ how. what garage. but will also look around... time to wander around the building. most people ignore them, unsurprisingly. ]

Do you think these windows are reinforced?

[ please don't break a window ]

[unsaid]

[please don't break a window]

Ha ha ha, are you trying to test out how fast your legs can carry you away from a crime scene?

[please don't be so okay with breaking a window]

[preowned]

Well, I think that'll be good information to have.

[ you never know when you need to do a quick getaway. but... he glances at mikazuki, his smile turning more amused. ]

But we can test that out another day.

[ is he concerned about whether or not jiji can run fast? perhaps ]

[unsaid]

[it's not a matter of whether he can or not - only whether or not he will. but he doesn't seem too bothered by this, instead just reaching out to take tsurumaru's arm like they really are still elderly old men who do their ambling walks]

Very well, very well.

Do you suppose we should continue our reconnaissance another time?

[preowned]

I suppose... it'll be helpful if we can meet someone else who knows about this.

[ because they can message them on the app, but both of them barely know how technology works so it would probably be easier if it's in person. ]

Shall we look for a store then?

[unsaid]

[the way we literally have to stop writing plot for our psl because we have to handwave interactions with tech-literate characters i hate it here

anyway!

back to the gay agenda]

Mm, let's. Perhaps this way? It looked rather busy...

[so that means stores are there, right? or they can just ask where to go and honestly get recommendations by strangers on the street about how to dress. nice!]

[preowned]

[ yea. they are just walking together now, because tsurumaru is not moving away from mikazuki's grasp.

but he is trying to keep a look out for where the youths seem to be gravitating towards. ]

Their pants look very tight.

[unsaid]

[ah the grandpa shuffle down the promenade. at least mikazuki can be slightly excused as he's obviously window shopping as they walk along]

Do you think they have to be helped into them each morning?

[no you fool that's just you]
