A → Thursday, November 2nd [From morning to early evening]
SPPD Headquarters

Same business, different environment. Nothing felt out of place.

At least, that's what Jayden kept telling himself. The busywork kept him occupied even if it did entail long, tedious paperwork. Sometimes he would find himself slowing down from the occasional headache or sore muscles for that matter. A person can be cooped up inside of an "office" for so long even though he was theoretically working on Mars. Don't overdo it. That's all you gotta do, right?

Just one quick break. That's all Jayden needed to get the blood flowing again. Where he was walking towards he had no idea, really. He would pass by the other offices and take a quick glance at the open or slightly cracked doors. Then there was the vending machine. Obvious place to take a break but Jayden's legs felt reluctant to stop there. Then again, somethin' salty sounded real nice right about now. Or maybe sweet. Before he realized it, he found himself in front of the damn thing debating between "D7" or "B2".


B → Sunday November 25th [early afternoon-???]
???

Jayden was willing to roll the dice on this one. Little did he ever go out to explore the city on his own. Maybe for the occasional errand or two but that was about it. His job was beginning to occupy a majority of his free time. There was this one bookstore with a little cafe inside he liked to visit whenever he had the chance. The coffee they made had to be be strongest blend in the whole god damn world. Not even cream would soften the punch. But where else can he go?

Uptown, downtown...who knows. Perhaps he needed to approach this with more direction. Have a fuckin' plan at least. This always happened whenever he stopped working. Work or ARI. ARI or work. The two were synonymous. If he didn't use ARI for work then he used ARI to kill time. When he didn't use ARI then there were other work-related items to take care of. Take the two away and Jayden would have no idea what to do with himself.

So there he stood. Not sure what he should do next.

Scene B!

[ella_of_frell]

Ella was out exploring too, for that matter, although she wasn't alone. Kyra, her wolf, was always with her - or near enough. No leash or anything though, Ella apparently trusted the animal enough to not run off.

Or she just didn't have a leash. Either or.

She was looking rather pensive, wandering by Jayden, only to - peripherally at least - take note of his at a loss-ness. Enough that she turned with a faint smile, and took a step back towards him. "Excuse me, but are you alright?"

Scene B

[bestseller]

Alan always explored. Although he hadn't been going out as much as when he first arrived -mostly on account of figuring out what the hell was going on- he still liked to get a breath of fresh air every now and again once he'd 'settled in.' And considering that he'd been spending a little too much time cooped up, it was time to get out.

Being from Manhattan, Alan enjoyed walking. He'd been so at ease with knowing his way around the streets and no need for a car on account of the subways, Alan enjoyed traveling on his feet. Even though this place was nothing like the Big Apple -and there was only so much to see- Alan still continued around familiar streets looking for new things.

And that's when he spotted someone standing there. Normally, Alan would go about on his way, ignoring them as he passed by, but Siren's Port was different. And maybe Alan was really bored.

"You look like you need help."
