WHO: Ritsuka + anyone
WHERE: just some random street corner
WHEN: 1st of July
WHAT: Ritsuka found herself whisked away to another world? Must be Tuesday...
WARNINGS: Probably none, this time

There's a new face in town! Or at least, there's a redheaded young woman who, while not appearing particularly bewildered or confused, most definitely is spending some time looking over the surrounding buildings and cityscape. As one does when trying to figure out where one is or how to get where one needs to go. In any case, it's definitely true no one here's seen her in town before!

Should you approach, though, she'll promptly swap from that evaluating stare to a friendly grin.

"Oh, hi there! Are you from around here?"

If you're especially observant, though, you might notice a set of red marks on the back of her right hand. But that's probably not important, right? Right.

Well, there's definitely some useful information to file away there. Ritsuka hasn't yet figured out arrangements like a place to stay, but she has all day, she doesn't need to act on it right this minute.

"Sounds like that app's a way for them to get people to take care of things for them..."

Really, it's just too convenient, when you explain it like that.

"I mean, that's definitely a way to look at it." Note that he's not denying it. "But, well, if it's an issue that they're bringing to our attention, it's something we probably would've dealt with anyway. At least, that's what I figure."

He shrugs.

"We're more or less just left to our own devices most of the time, at least."

[prunedworlds]

"Right, but having something like that where everyone using it is someone who can probably help is pretty convenient, isn't it?"

Like, seriously, what are the odds that just those people use the app, and not a bunch of other randos?

[onahairtrigger]

"Yeah, I'm not sure I'd say everyone... And some people choose to not bother, so." Ah, but that's not the important part.

"Again, with some of what goes on, it's stuff we would've wanted to take care of anyway." Another shrug. "And yeah, I know it's probably more concerning to be this unconcerned about it, but... I dunno. My focus is never really on Zodiac. Just on the people using Libra."

[prunedworlds]

"How come?"

She's genuinely curious. She might still find the whole app thing a little too convenient, but it's worthwhile hearing someone else's observations, too. Especially someone who's been here longer.

[onahairtrigger]

"I'm more of a 'what's right in front of me' kind of guy, honestly. If there's anything I'm focusing on, it's how the people themselves are doing. Patch people up if they're hurt, that sort of thing."

[prunedworlds]

"Oh, that makes sense."

And she can sympathize--even if she's had to keep the bigger picture in mind out of necessity, she's never been good at leaving the people right in front of her to their fates. Not if she could do something to help.

"If there's people taking care of that, then that means other people can work on dealing with whatever the problem is, too."
