Paralogue 14: A Random Guy Tries to Steal From You

Featuring: Claire, Drew

[6:49 PM] [SPICY] bemun: In the busy streets of Amaterasu (or something), Claire wandered the city, looking for a job opening that she could fill to keep from going into the red

[6:50 PM] [SPICY] bemun: While on her search, she bumped into a fellow who appeared to be rushing through the crowds. The two fell down.

[6:50 PM] [SPICY] bemun: Claire helped up the stranger, making sure he was alright, and went on her way

[6:56 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: Drew on the other hand, was walking to his new job, he saw the 2 fall and looked at one of them, thinking they looked familiar

[7:00 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: He noticed something was off with the urgency the other one ran

[7:01 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: As he was running in Drew's direction, he kicked him in the chest onto the floor

[7:01 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: "Woops, here I think you dropped something"

[7:02 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: He picked up Claire's gold

[7:02 PM] [SPICY] bemun: Upon hearing some commotion, Claire turned to see Drew standing over the fellow

[7:02 PM] [SPICY] bemun: "Drew! What are you doing?"

[7:02 PM] [SPICY] bemun: She ran over

[7:02 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: wait she's gona think I stole it...shit, I hope this works

[7:03 PM] [SPICY] bemun: "What's going on?" she kneels down to help up the fellow

[7:04 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: Drew hands Claire the gold "This guy stole your gold when he bumped into you!"

[7:04 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: "It was really fast.." kind of impressive actually

[7:04 PM] [SPICY] bemun: "Wha- how dare you!? You can't just kick people onto the ground and accuse them of thievery!"

[7:05 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: "But....I saw it happen?"

[7:06 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: "Look for your gold....go on"

[7:06 PM] [SPICY] bemun: Claire pats her pockets.

[7:06 PM] [SPICY] bemun: "Well, maybe I left my gold at home!"

[7:07 PM] [SPICY] bemun: "Or maybe it fell out during our collision!"(edited)

[7:08 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: "You really think a theif, someone who probably makes no money, is just gonna give back a pouch of gold that falls down?"

[7:09 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: "Just take it"

[7:09 PM] [SPICY] bemun: "No, its not mine, it's his."

[7:09 PM] [SPICY] bemun: Claire grabs the gold and "returns" it to the stranger

[7:10 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: "And what if it was yours?"

[7:11 PM] [SPICY] bemun: "Which its not."

[7:11 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: "....."

[7:13 PM] [SPICY] bemun: "I refuse to believe you would do something like this."

[7:13 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: Drew is utterly confused

[7:14 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: She seem so sure....

[7:15 PM] [SPICY] bemun: "I'm so sorry for this sir." she turns to the stranger

[7:16 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: Drew goes from confused to annoyed

[7:17 PM] [SPICY] ColdToiletSeat: "Oh, thank ya very much, miss!" The thief grinned, re-adjusting his cloak after he happily accepted the bag of money "I really do appreciate tha honest people in this world!"(edited)

[7:17 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: "What the?"

[7:18 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: "....seriously?"

[7:19 PM] [SPICY] bemun: "What, Drew are you still trying to convince me that he's a theif?"

[7:19 PM] [SPICY] ColdToiletSeat: "Yeah! C'mon then, what are ya on about?" He added, looking back at Drew

[7:20 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: He stares at the theif "how much gold do you have"

[7:21 PM] [SPICY] bemun: "Wha-!? No, sir you do not need to answer that. Please, just be on your way."

[7:22 PM] [SPICY] ColdToiletSeat: "I ain't loaded, if that's whotcha thinkin'!" The grimy man responded, raising his chin and starting to backpedal away(edited)

[7:22 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: She wont even let me interview him!

[7:23 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: "Just....sigh some people just have weird views"

[7:25 PM] [SPICY] ColdToiletSeat: The man added an ever-so-believable "Hmph" before he turned around a corner and disappeared into an alleyway.(edited)

[7:25 PM] [SPICY] bemun: "Drew, what's going on with you? I expected you to be better than this."

[7:27 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: "I expected people to have common sense as well, seems we both have been let down" He has a blank stare, trying to figure a way to solve this

[7:28 PM] [SPICY] bemun: "I don't think I understand, or appreciate that tone."

[7:29 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: "Well, have you ever done a "what-if" scenario?"

[7:29 PM] [SPICY] bemun: "Yes, why?"

[7:31 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: "What-if, someone tried to mug you?"

[7:32 PM] [SPICY] bemun: "Are we talking about robbing someone? Or pickpocketing?"

[7:37 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: "I just want to see what you think of both, now" He pulls out a self-defense dagger and points it at her "A random guy tries to steal from you, with force, what do you do?"

[7:42 PM] [SPICY] bemun: Claire grabs his hand and twists it

[7:42 PM] [SPICY] bemun: "I would fight back"

[7:47 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: "OW, GOD!- dontgetmaddontgetmad

[7:48 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: "GREAT" He says through his teeth

[7:49 PM] [SPICY] bemun: "Oh! Did I do that too hard?"

[7:49 PM] [SPICY] bemun: Claire retracts her hand

[7:50 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: "YYYES"

[7:50 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: He picks up and sheaths his dagger, then holds the hand that got twisted

[7:51 PM] [SPICY] bemun: "Oh, I'm so sorry! I didn't- I did that on reflex, I-oh dear, lets find something for that!"

[7:56 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: "FIRST-" He tries to speak normal now "apply that to a pick-pocket, you have to be aware of your gold or else people will get away without punishment"

[7:57 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: This really hurts

[8:03 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: "Now please get ice or something!"

[8:03 PM] [SPICY] bemun: "Wait, is that- oh of course!"

[8:03 PM] [SPICY] bemun: Claire runs off to get some help, or ice too

[8:05 PM] [SPICY] bemun: She returns with a large cube of ice.

[8:05 PM] [SPICY] bemun: "I had to ask around, but I managed to get this, here."

[8:10 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: "Th....thanks"

[8:10 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: He puts it all over his right hand

[8:12 PM] [SPICY] bemun: "Is it feeling better?"

[8:14 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: "Yeah....but more importantly" He looks up at her with a semi-real smile "Did ya learn anything?"

[8:15 PM] [SPICY] bemun: "I didn't learn anything, you just reminded me to stop thieves."

[8:15 PM] [SPICY] bemun: "Wait..."

[8:19 PM] [SPICY] bemun: "Wait! That means, that guy, he. gasp imsosorryishoulvebelievedyouandgetmymoneybackomigoshimessedup"

[8:20 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: He smiles for a second, happy he got through

[8:21 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: "Well....im glad!...I didnt walk away with just pain in my hand!"

[8:21 PM] [SPICY] bemun: "But, that was the last of my..."

[8:22 PM] [SPICY] bemun: Claire looks off in the direction the thief left

[8:25 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: Drew feels bad hearing "last of"

[8:25 PM] [SPICY] bemun: "I'll be right back."

[8:25 PM] [SPICY] bemun: Claire runs off after the thief

[8:25 PM] [Ew Doritos] ChaoticAce: "I can- oh ok then"

[8:26 PM] [SPICY] bemun: Claire does not find her gold ===end rp===
