[ota] it's time to move on, time to get goin'
Who: Yusei Fudo (
planetary_bonds) & Genjo Sanzo (
smithandwesson) & you!
What: the saga of yusei's move to wyver and other catchalls for january
When: from right after the gala up to the first week of january
Where: olympia, wyver, and the woods in between
Warning(s): yusei's naked in the last prompt. nothing sexual, but it happens.
[a. wyver scum] - olympia business district
[Something doesn't feel right here. He can't quite put his finger on it, but he's starting to feel more and more uncomfortable walking the streets of Olympia. At first, he thinks it's the excessive decoration that was put up for the gala still lending a rather austere air to the whole place, but even after that starts being taken down he feels on edge. Like he's being eyed with disdain.
Catching some dirty looks from people who think he can't spot them makes him realize that it feels like being in Neo Domino City all over again, where the mere glimpse of his marker alerted them to his being from Satellite and left them free to eye him with all their scorn. The feeling of being judged and reviled, through no fault of his own...
His feeling is only confirmed when he's found trying to negotiate with a vendor who had received his repairing services just last week. Said vendor is being ambivalent about the whole thing, at first responding to Yusei like he's merely making a joke, then pretending to not recognize him. Yusei watches said vendor's eyes slowly harden as the conversation turned haggling turned argument drags on, until they eventually spew a harsh insult, demanding for Yusei to leave at once before they call the guard.
Yusei glances around, spots other people all looking at him that same way, with that same thinly veiled dislike, as if he's tainted, unclean, a nuisance to be swept away and forgotten. He grits his teeth, scowls, then slowly walks away, murmuring to himself.]
What's...going on...?
[He's unaware that this whole thing is simply due to wearing Wyver's pin at the gala, even if he barely competed in the competition itself. Such a minor thing doesn't even enter his mind - he barely remembers such a small detail.]
[b. up and at 'em, time to go] - olympia residential district
[When he does figure out that his less than positive reception from natives is from such a simple thing, he can't help but question the mindset of the average Olympian citizen. Receiving a survey causes him to toss the paper in the bin with disgust - it's nothing but one-sided propaganda when one reads between the lines, almost daring citizens to think of Wyver with antagonistic feelings while bringing up Olympian pride. It only cements the feeling he'd had that started a long time ago when touring Wyver for the first time - this place, as hospitable as it had been at first, felt far too much like Neo Domino City. Maybe now would be a good time to make good on his promise to Sanzo - he feels bad about leaving in the middle of repairs, but at this point the citizens are nearly done, and they won't take his help anyway...
There wasn't much in his apartment to begin with after Sanzo had left, but he still takes the time to pack up what little personal effects had been left behind by the monk during his frantic escape, as well as the small cache of tools and parts he'd acquired over his time in Olympia. Even with how little was left in the apartment, however, it still takes time to load the half-completed rickshaw-motorcycle, especially when he has to fill the spare gallons of water he's carrying for the journey. It's quite the sight, honestly, watching Yusei pack up, and it's actually got some local citizens glancing aside curiously.]
[c. over the river and through the woods] - south outpost and the surrounding area
[Honestly, the journey goes smoother than imagined. Yusei thought that being incomplete and powered by steam, the bike would have some difficulty handling the journey to Wyver. But going through the South Outpost (and he can't help but feel a little bitter passing by it, when just a week or so before a celebration of unity had been held right in this spot) means he has smoother roads to follow, and other than some side-eyeing by the local guards he hasn't had much trouble.
Honestly, the only real problem is that he has to refill the tanks more often than he's used to,
steam power really doesn't allow for long distance travel, and so every five or ten miles he has to stall the engine and get out to grab one of his spare water tanks...and find them frozen. Great.
Maybe travelling through the countryside during such bitterly cold weather wasn't the best of ideas, Yusei thinks ruefully. At least he's getting better at making fires, though. Anyone passing by on their own quest might be grateful to stop for a brief moment of warmth.]
[d. naked as a new year's babe] - wyver
[The weather is significantly warmer in Wyver (at least during the day), compared to Olympia and even his increasingly warm journey down past the South Outpost. Yusei's been finding himself grateful for this recently, especially as of now. Why?
Because he's strutting around naked in the closest thing Wyver has to a public town square.
Granted, strutting is exaggerating things a bit...but it's definitely not overstating the truth to say that he's in the buff (and...quite buff, actually), carrying nothing on him but a rather large sign.]
I AM AN OVERLY OPTIMISTIC LITTLE MAN-BABY WHO THINKS PEOPLE ARE PERFECT AND INCAPABLE OF MAKING MISTAKES. FEEL FREE TO POINT AND LAUGH.
[It's definitely an...attention getting sign. Judging by the deadpan expression on his face, he's not particularly happy to be holding it, either. Whether he's actually walking around or sitting crosslegged in the middle of the square, he's definitely giving people quite the eyeful, and explaining his predicament to the locals gets him...surprisingly, not scorn, but amusement. After all, this all happened because he lost a bet regarding the nature of humanity, and anything that affirms the idea that Olympia isn't to be trusted can only be a good thing, right? Great first impression to be making on the locals, Yusei.
Some of the locals seem to even be congratulating an odd-looking monk that's observing the shenanigans nearby and - aha. Of course. To those who know him, finding out that Sanzo may just be involved in this wouldn't be much of a surprise.]

How long are you supposed to be out here for?
no subject
[Yikes.]
After that, I still owe them dinner.
no subject
[A quick scrunch of his nose at the idea.]
With an ego like that, I'm rather surprised they're not out here blowing a horn to draw attention to you.

[Yusei, stop throwing shade at the priest-that-barely-acts-like-a-priest.]
no subject
[He looks a bit shifty after he says that, though, as if uncomfortable with his own implication.]
Ill-fated a wager though it may have been, don't let him take too much advantage of you.
no subject
[Also a priest and probably shouldn't be paying coin for that, but still.]
That being said, I don't think things will extend beyond this one bet. [Unless they make more bets. Yusei's a bit of a sucker for good games.]
