Who: ANYONE AND EVERYONE Where: ANYWHERE AND EVERYWHERE When: May 29 - 31 Summary: GET IN HERE AND MINGLE Rating: BUT PLEASE MARK YOUR THREAD CONTENT ACCORDINGLY Log:
[And yep she turned around and that's her. There's a short moment where Tulio just stares at her, but then he allows a smile as well, splaying a hand against his chest in a gesture to himself. Look how stupid he still is, Nanao. did you really miss this guy.]
{She chuckles, crossing her arms and putting her weight onto one foot. She missed this, the banter, the self-aggrandizement... The handsome face doesn't hurt.}
[Huffing out a sigh, he nods.] Right, sure. This place never made much sense anyway.
[But hang on. Tulio was never the most emotionally aware type, but it hasn't been years for him and he still remembers a lot about her, so he frowns at her even though he doesn't call attention to the fact that she's being somewhat avoidant. Not yet.]
{OH BOY HOW DOES SHE PUT THIS. She takes her glasses off and rubs at the bridge of her nose, before finally looking at Tulio's face again.}
You might be, but I'm not sure if I will. Things... aren't going great back home. {And by not great, she means that her people are being massacred by this other group of people and the entire world might be destroyed. It's a long story.}
[He remembers that - it's somewhat distant and foggy, but you don't just forget about that kind of conversation, and he studies her a bit more closely.]
Doesn't sound like the best place to go back to, exactly.
[And enter the slightly awkward pause. Rubbing at the back of his neck for a moment and looking out into the distance to buy time - they were never ever easy, her and him - Rey snorts and stomps his hoof sort of impatiently, so Tulio rolls his eyes and then extends a hand down to Nanao when he refocuses on her.]
[... get your head out of the gutter, Nanao. He scoffs at her, then gestures at her to come on and take his hand already so he can help pull her up on the stupid zebra.]
no subject
Please, who else would it be?
no subject
I don't know... Miguel, maybe? {SHOTS FIRED}
no subject
Tch! Come on. You always liked me better anyway.
[Don't even deny it. He has Rey come closer by just a step or two, but has a more serious expression when he looks down at her.]
When did you get here? Last time I was around, you'd pulled another disappearance act.
no subject
Me? Not too long ago. {She can't keep his gaze, and looks at the buildings instead.} I've been bouncing back and forth like a ball, apparently.
no subject
[That doesn't sound fun. At all. But that begs the question-?]
How long has it been, anyway?
no subject
It's not quite been that long for me... but enough's happened that it feels a lot longer than it's actually been.
no subject

... sides, we'll be back sooner or later.
[Is that?? why you're being weird?]
no subject
You might be, but I'm not sure if I will. Things... aren't going great back home. {And by not great, she means that her people are being massacred by this other group of people and the entire world might be destroyed. It's a long story.}
no subject
You'd ... died before, right?
[He remembers that - it's somewhat distant and foggy, but you don't just forget about that kind of conversation, and he studies her a bit more closely.]
Doesn't sound like the best place to go back to, exactly.
no subject
{She moves closer to him - if she reached out, she could touch Tulio's knee.}
You look good. More tan, if that's possible. {Change of subject? What change of subject.}
no subject
Well yeah. No houses in the jungle.
It's, uh ... it's good to see you again.
no subject
The feeling's mutual, believe me.
no subject
You uh, you want a ride?
no subject
If you're offering, then of course I'm going to accept.
no subject

Are you going somewhere or not?
no subject
Depends, where are you going?
no subject
Around. Wanted to see if anyone was still here.
[He casts a look back at her over his shoulder.]
Well, unless you have other plans.
no subject
Not really - I've been checking the 'Gear, but mine seems to be on the fritz. I'm happy to follow your lead.
