Characters: Sheena and YOU!
Date: All of February
Location: All over Aifaran
Situation: Getting blamed for things, Checking out Buildings, running away from fans...
Warnings/Rating: None

A: Faith--Spirit of Mis-Fortune

"Stop!"

Feeling her arm roughly grabbed, Sheena doesn't bother looking before twisting and flipping the person over and onto the ground. Placing her foot on the person's chest, she puts her hands on her hips and glares at them.

"What the hell do you think you're doing?"

B: Commerce--Favorable Bank Error

Anyone who knows Sheena would realize something is different about her today. There seems to be a happy bounce to her step as she wanders the city from empty building to empty building, peering inside and taking pictures and making notes, seemingly oblivious to anyone who may be following her.

There's even some humming going on as she works. And if people get close enough, they'll see her actually pinch herself with an "ow" and a quiet, "Yep, this is real" before going on her way.

C: Art--Going Viral

Sheena's a pretty fast runner, but even she's having a hard time keeping ahead of the shouting crowd behind her. Variations of declarations of "loving her" can be heard as she passes business after business before seeing her chance to escape.

Timing things just right, she leaps on and over a heavily-laden cart, putting it between her and the crowd and using it as cover for where she really goes.

From her new perch on the roof of the nearest building, she watches the mob run by, shouting her name and declarations before turning and sinking down with a sigh.

"What the hell was that all about?"

D: Wildcard

Want to do something else? Meet up with her elsewhere? No problem!

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

Sheena had been so focused on the mob, that she hadn't even seen that someone was up here. Good thing she hadn't landed on him!

Peering over the edge, she chokes back an exclamation of surprise as the crowd seems to have grown slightly larger. Sinking back down, she shakes her head.

"Tell me about it! And I have no idea why!" She looks at the young man warily. "You're not going to start saying the things they are, are you?"

"I don't think I am!"

He'd probably notice if he were. Heh.

"At least they don't seem angry." Quite the opposite, actually. "I could go down and ask, but you'll have to stay out of sight."

With the fervor the mob's showing, he actually isn't sure how viable staying out of sight is.

"That's good," she sighs.

Peeking around to look at the crowd again, she mutters, "Angry would be better. I'm used to dealing with angry."

Looking back at him, she shakes her head. "I can probably stay out of sight." A comment that shows she's thinking the same thing about the mob. "But I can't ask you do that! What if they start chasing you?"

He really wants to know why she's more used to dealing with an angry mob...but that can come later, probably!

"I'm really good at losing crowds." Which is actually an exaggeration; what would be more accurate to say is that he has some tricks up his sleeve. Sounds like Sheena has some herself, though.

"Meet you back at the Dreaming Bridge?"

She may tell you--if you ask. Okay, she'll definitely tell you.

Sheena glances in the direction of the mob. "I hope so, because this one seems pretty determined." She'd really hate for him to have to go through this, and she sits there, mulling over her decision. Finally, she nods. This might be the only way to get away.

"All right. I'll meet you there! But be careful."

"Don't worry about it! See you later."

He goes to the side of the building adjacent to the crowd, and jumps down. From there, it's a simple matter to tap someone on the shoulder and ask what's going on, and then pretend enthusiasm (which isn't hard, he's been an enthusiastic person for much of his life and habits don't go away that easily), and when he gets back to the Dreaming Bridge, he has a big excited grin on his face.

"Shee~na!" ...Whoops. Having learned her name from the crowd, he...probably shouldn't be shouting it when a rousing crowd is also looking for her.

—Too late. One of her fans has overheard. Judai has to quickly run away and lose them by rounding a corner and scaling the building before they can see where he went.

"Whew!" He straightens. "Now where can she be...?"

"Okay."

She watches as he leaves, doing a silent count to ten before making her move away from the sudden burst of sound. Just what is he doing? Whatever it is, it's working, as she makes it to the Dreaming Bridge undetected.

Up on the roof, she's peering over the edge when she hears her name, and immediately draws back to seek a secluded place up here to hide just in case. Finding one, she remains still, her breathing slow and quiet when she hears someone else on the roof.

Oh, great. There goes this hiding-- Oh.

Leaving her spot, she makes her way over to him and taps him on the shoulder and answers his question.

"I'm right behind you."

He jumps at the tap on his shoulder, but relaxes when he sees who it is. “There you are!”

Just the person he wanted to see! (Never mind that he was looking for her. Shh.) "How come you didn't tell me your Xa Xa was so good?"

Please excuse how vague and unhelpful he's being, Sheena...he's excited.
