anemoi | 01 | action + audio

[ACTION]

[The amusement park had been fantastic! Jaime didn't exactly know why he felt like a little kid amongst all the other people, but he'd felt right at home with the bumper cars and the ring-tosses and had even managed to come home with a couple of prizes. Except in retrospect, taking home a giant stuffed beetle may have not been the best option.

Cue Jaime attempting to take it out of the apartments... except it's a little unwieldy, even for him, especially since this thing's like five feet tall. Even for a "cute" stuffed beetle, it had its limits. Although Jaime plans on taking it to the local orphanage/shelter/goodwill, he didn't really bother to go look for a map before he left...

So he might be wandering all over town with this ridiculously oversized giant stuffed beetle that nearly blocks his face. Good grief, maybe he should've thought this one through.]

[AUDIO, made after the initial trek]

Hey guys. Sounds like most of us're in the same boat, so I'm going to outright admit that I'm one of y'all. Anyone planning on grabbing some anemoi anytime soon? I wanted to go explore and look, but I don't feel like doing it by myself.

If you want to meet me, just let me know! The more, the merrier, right? Oh right... I'm Jaime! I hope I'll see you guys around soon.

[It takes a moment for Jaime to rest his head ontop of the beetle, as he's barely taller than the thing---and it's not like Jaime's short, either.]

Maybe. Thing is, I'm not sure where I'm going either.

Well, what are you planning to do with it?

Probably donate to a shelter or an orphanage or somewhere that'd just appreciate this thing more than my roommate.

Oh.

...And you don't know where the shelters and orphanages are in this city, huh?

[He shakes his head.] Looking back, it might've been a good idea to grab a map.

...You think we could find a phone booth with a phone book in it?

Probably. I think our phones might have maps too, but I haven't figured mine out entirely.

Do they? I've never seen a phone that can do this much.

[Yep, this kid predates the iPhone by three years.]

Really? I know I don't remember much about myself, but the iPhone I got was pretty cool.

[It takes him a while, what with the giant beetle and all, but he pulls out his smartphone and shows Shirou.] There should be a map function on there somewhere...

If there is, I don't know how to access it. This is more advanced than any cell phone I can imagine.

Huh. Basically, you just... hang on. [Jaime pushes a few buttons, comes up with the map, and shows him again.]

What's your phone like, then?

Oh, I have the same model.

[He pulls his out.]

Wait... so you have a phone like mine and you can't use it yet? [Jaime can't help feeling sorry for him, even if it's misplaced concern.] Um, once I get this beetle out of my hands, I could show you the rest of the stuff on it.

You could? I'd definitely appreciate it.

It'd seriously be no problem. I mean, it's not like I've got anything else to do.

Then in the meantime I'll help you carry this.

That'd actually be awesome. It's not heavy, just really unwieldy.

It looks it.

[Shirou walks around and grabs the other end.]

[Jaime gives a grateful nod before starting to direct them towards the location he found on his map.]

Lesson learned: when they offer you a huge carnival prize, don't take it.

Yeah, that's not a good idea unless you're a kid. And even then, you have to be careful.

Oh, by the way, I'm Shirou.

No kidding.

I'm Jaime! It's nice to meet you, even if it was under kind of weird circumstances.

Same here. Now let's get this donated.

Heh, yeah.

[With the addition of their handy-dandy map, Jaime easily starts walking in the direction of the nearest Goodwill--and of course, he's good about telling Shirou when they have to turn left and right and so forth.

They get there eventually! And once they do, Jaime gives Shirou the most grateful of smiles.] ... Thanks. I couldn't have done this by myself.

I'm just glad I could help.
