Who: Akira Kurusu, Goro Akechi, Nikolai Gogol, and anyone interested in some shenanigans!
Where: A handful of locations around Aldrip
What: Akira and Goro have decided to do some people-watching to determine the identity of Gogol's farce to fake his death.
Warnings: There's a closed prompt that's gonna result in half a centimeter from death, but otherwise the only real warnings are that Goro and Gogol are involved in this log. ...probably a lot of innuendo and stupid teenager bullshittery, also.



[Picture this; it's a normal Wednesday in Aldrip, the weather is reasonable, you're going about your daily life. There's been some craziness lately, hasn't there? Some clown stole some organs, some people got messed up getting those organs back, and then some more people got messed up killing the clown. Yikes!]

[What you may not realize, is during the Killing of the Clown™️, some more things were stolen. Goro took it upon himself to steal Gogol's cloak and tablet, and... Well. As it turned out, Gogol's death was merely temporary, try as he might to convince others he was gone for good. He'd like his things back, but he's currently under the guise of an unassuming Salaryman...,]

[Cut back to this perfectly pleasant, normal Wednesday! Goro Akechi has opted to attempt to sniff out Gogol's trickery, once and for all. With the help of his partner (in crime and everything else), they have stationed themselves in separate areas of the city, connected by a seemlingly innocuous phone call, enjoying the weather and doing some good old-fashioned detective work by way of people watching. What could possibly go wrong?]

//ooc; please do not reply to this main post! comments will go up shortly for both goro and akira, as well as a third closed prompt. pick who you'd like to interact with, or hassle them both! reply to their comments for any and all sort of shenanigans, centering on your character's basic daily life in aldrip. :>

[Akira looks-- well, it's actually sort of hard to tell. He masks his expressions startlingly well, so for a moment his face is just blank.]

[And then he closes his eyes and pulls off his glasses, pinching the bridge of his nose.] Fucking hell. I-- [He looks over his hand between his eyes.] Again, not worth much, I know he needs to not be insane. But if I can do anything, anytime. I work at Lupin and a few other places in the city.

[heartstopping]

[Rolo does not look terribly impressed.]

I doubt I'm going to need anything from a bar.

[Objectively, Rolo knows he's being kind of unfair to this guy, who seems at least pretty decent and apologetic. But he's finding it hard to care, given...well. He's a teenager.]

[chemex]

[Akira is nothing if not a self-sacrificial fool. He sighs, dropping his hand and shaking his head.] We serve more than just alcohol, I'm probably not much older than you are.

[He doesn't want to push. Rolo's ire is warranted, as far as he's concerned, and the last thing he wants is to agitate him further. He knows what it's like to be given paltry apologies from the wrong people.]

[heartstopping]

I don't need food either. My brother is probably a better cook anyway.

[ he can't help but brag about lelouch smh

It's a pretty dismissive statement and the whole vibe he's giving off suggests he has no interest in this interaction. There's a pause like he might just walk away, but he hesitates, and after a moment frowns and glances back at Akira.]

Why do you even hang around that guy?

[chemex]

Well, if you ever find yourself needing anything, you don't have to be 20 to come in.

[Rolo's kind of being a little shit, but Akira can't entirely blame him. The question gives him pause, and he looks the brunet over for a long moment.] Because I understand the things that made him behave how he does, and I love him anyway.
