[ACTION; PRIVATE]

*Up to this point, he'd been looking forward to the memories; all the little memories of Tomoe, their marriage, their meeting, and so on. It had been spurring him on, knowing someone was waiting for him. Someone who loved him, who was waiting for him to come home.

The end of that illusion came, ironically, in a dream not long after the last batch of anemoi he got.

It was too vivid to be anything other than a memory. Images of her collapsing, then her in a hospital bed. And then... a phone call after a heroic rescue, a hurried rush home, and opening the doors to the sight of HER, tastefully laid out in the traditional style, a sheet covering her prone body.

He woke up, still confused; it was a dream, right? But then he reaches his cheeks, and feels the tears, and remembers. Six years ago, now.

Tomoe was dead.*

[ACTION; PUBLIC]

*Not that he shows it too much in public. He tries his best to be his usual cheerful self around others; only when he's by himself does he let the melancholy in. He doesn't need anybody worrying about him, after all.

But maybe you catch him in one of his down moments. Briefly. Do you approach?*

[VIDEO]

You know, I was thinking. A guy like me, hoarding all these memories for himself when other folks might want some! Seems kinda selfish, doesn't it? How about I just give some of you guys the ones I find instead? Just for a little while! Come on, what do you say?

((OOC: 3% on Tomoe's illness and death.)

[Today, Booster is wearing a suit and tie. And if that won't get your attention, I'm not sure what will! OK maybe the fact that he is also clearly trying to get people's attention, that might do it.]

Hello, people of Sirocco! I'm Booster Gold, and I've got a very important announcement for you all today, especially for our local heroes. Back home, we've got an organization of heroes called the Justice League, and, as a member of said prestigious organization, I am of course authorized to form a new chapter here. In other words, Justice League Sirocco is now recruiting and open for business!

If you're interested in joining or you're in need of some superheroic assistance, feel free to get in touch with me or stop by our headquarters at 6040 Jubilee Road. I can promise there'll always be somebody there ready to help you. And if you're in need of some spare anemoi, we can help with that, too! Again, that's 6040 Jubilee Road, not too far from the Suites or the lab.

If there's any questions, I can answer them right now.

This is the time of year when everyone starts preparing for winter and making lots of good food, which means it's a time when extra jobs start to appear.

Helping People Jobs

- Ms. Li at Sirocco Elementary wants someone to make an inspirational film for her students. She'll lend out the equipment if nobody has any. This is a job for a lot of people, so let's all team up!

- It's getting to be time for winter, and that means it's time for winter fashion! The person in charge of K K Ace Designs seems to be in a rut and needs some outside help. People good at fashion or inspiration are best for this one, but someone with a good body for modeling might help too.

Scary Jobs

- More and more new monsters have been showing up! There's a few big ones with snappy claws around the far side of the harbor. The kitchen staff want to find out how they taste, so bring one back for us!

- There's a hungry bear foraging around right outside town. It's pretty cute, but if it starts getting into town and into garbage cans and pantries, it could cause a lot of trouble. It's not a very big for a bear, but it's still pretty big.

Big Jobs

- It looks like the new superhero headquarters needs some work done before it's in tip-top super shape! The building's pretty good, but it needs a few more things.

1. Electricity! It's already in the network, so this is mostly about hooking up all the stuff like computers and telephones and extra lights and coffee machines.
2. Security! It should have a sturdy fence, at least, or maybe a wall or a scary dog. EDIT TIME IT'S EDIT TIME~ Booster is afraid of dogs so that last one is no good. DOUBLE EDIT~ IGNORE THE LAST EDIT BECAUSE IT IS A SECRET!
3. Decoration! Nobody wants to work in a drab place, so spruce it up with nice wallpaper and that kind of thing. Some of the furniture isn't too good, so you can scavenge in the ruins for better things.
