[ So like, by Saturday he's cleaned up because he's discovered the makeshift bathtubs behind the cabins, so he's not looking as bad as before. When all you have is water, you can't get to looking spiffy exactly but he'll take what he can get.
And then he's around in the town, possibly sitting somewhere in the shade but certainly not where people are mingling, looking vaguely disoriented and definitely like maybe he hasn't slept too well. ]
[ yuffie is out running around all the locations fastly with her giant shuriken in her hand. she means business! and is obviously looking around for someone ]
You asshole! You can't just disappear!
[ she hasn't noticed him yet, which is weird of her ]
[ McDowner Boring is out and about again! He doesn't seem as bad as yesterday when he was full-on disassociating and just drinking grape juice but he's just a different way in general.
Giving off a general lack of any discernable emotion at all, besides probably what can be read as a simmering negativity and of course, the ever-lying exhaustion. ]
[ yuffie jumps and panics a little when this memory first starts off -- mostly because she doesn't realize it's a memory, she swipes at the environment before realizing that is isn't real. it's... a projection. like vr. a memory.... daan's memory? ]
[ it's a creepy, oppressive atmosphere as this plays out. reminds her a bit of the nibelheim mansion.... but so much worse, somehow. moldy and disgusting and abandoned. but there are some things are ring familiar here: his search for answers..... the death of loved ones. she didn't know he had a wife. ]
[ then he came to this hellish place for answers ]
Is that why you were in that place? Trying to figure out the sigil?
[ she has been stealthily following daan to make sure he's okay after hearing about what went down between him and aqua. please feel free to describe him coming out of the swamp ]
[ Help I love how this sort of implies Alfyn abandoned him. No I'm kidding Alfyn had a lot of people to swamp, I'm sure he's busy.
Well he fucking escapes from the swamp gasping for air, like he was a man drowning. And then he reaches for the 'shore', so to speak, only to crumble in on himself near-instantly with a muffled sound of great pain. ]
[ He has no cute flowers. However he does also unenthusiastically bark back in a low ruff sort of way, because the curse wants him to react impulsively to that. ]
Well not AS much? It'd be hard to tell anyway since he was wearing longsleeves, a high collar, and has a fringe, but he does maybe seem to be somewhat less of a mess. Helps that he is picking away at wiping the blood off of himself. ]
[ He's just hanging... idk if the jail has like. Benches. Or if he's just meant to be in the dirt when he doesn't feel like standing. His features are still weird, indistinct and goopy. ]
Oh? What an invasive question even before a simple "hello". They just don't teach kids manners.
[ in between 28390283023 curses, yuffie is just kind of... people-watching quietly somewhere. trying to get a sense of what goes on in the gy and what people are doing. she seems almost a little disconnected from what she's seeing ]
[ but she does wave to daan when she sees him. hewwo ]
[ If it's in-between curses, Daan is exuding the aura of loathing and hatred. I'm sorry, that's so funny we have not met under good conditions in forever.
It's not at her though, he just nods. He's wearing a hoodie with the hood up... he's not bald his fringe is visible. ]
[ All my pcs today start with one powerful phrase which is: what the fck
But it's after their. Victory...? Over the weirdest god Daan has had the displeasure to come into contact with, and that is honestly a very high bar. He's just standing off to the side smoking a cigarette while watching everyone else mingle and disperse, keeping an eye... his only eye... out for anyone who seems particularly injured or unwell. ]
