Her foul mood that mirrored the climate could hardly be missed but, used as he was to dealing with much worse, he decided to ignore that. People had bad days, that he could accept.
Slipping on a pair of thin cloth gloves, he tiled the bag to examine the -- pieces -- ? He examined adislodged gear between index and thumb. Once a watch, now little more than scrap metal components. Several other parts were subjected to his critical gaze before he returned them safey to the bag, his mouth set in a grim, thin line.
"Are you sure it is worth repairing?"
{ +3 } at the clockmakers'
      { ❦ };—   Darcy swept from the confines of her carriage and into the clockmaker’s shop as fast as she could, so as to avoid becoming soaked in the hammering rain. Once she stepped into Weathers Clockmakers, she let out an audible huff of annoyance as she tried her best to pat herself dry, and she made her way toward the man. She had been in a foul mood all morning.
'I need you to repair this pocket watch,' she said, taking out a small brown bag that held loose pieces of a pocket watch. Darcy was trying her best to sound polite, though that was proving to be much more difficult than she thought.

"Ozymandias" by Percy Bysshe Shelley Read by Bryan Cranston I met a traveller from an antique land Who said: Two vast and trunkless legs of stone Stand in the desert. Near them, on the sand, Half sunk, a shatter’d visage lies, whose frown, And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command, Tell that its sculptor well those passions read Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things, The hand that mocked them and the heart that fed: And on the pedestal these words appear: “My name is Ozymandias, king of kings: Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!” Nothing beside remains. Round the decay Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare The lone and level sands stretch far away.

He cast a glance at the downpour lashing the shop windows. With London caught in a deluge, his thoughts turned to the prospect of more enquiries by letter than in person in the following days. Surprise flickered in his lilac eyes as the door swung ajar and he kept the open magazine out of sight.
"Good afternoon, but what a terrible bout of weather. How may I help you?"

He didn’t know what was defeating him, but he sensed it was something he could not cope with, something that was far beyond his power to control or even at this point in time comprehend.

"Japan?!" He stared at Naveen, eyes wide as any frightened, confused tourist who realised he had boarded the wrong plane only after landing.
Tumblr media
"Ahh...how did I even get here? I must have missed a step, but which one--?" Opening his left palm, a book appeared, which he wasted no time in consulting.
"Ah well, you’re in the Asada Laboratory, located a little bit away from Osaka, Japan," he answered, crossing his arms as he spoke. With all of these people coming by, the androind almost felt like some sort of tour guide. Or if you could really call it that to be exact.
"Pleasure to meet you, Hewlett. Plus, yes it is Naveen."

              A REMINDER:
                    If you are an OC roleplaying account and you are still here—pat yourself on the back because creating a character, giving it a home inside your head and working so hard on it to give it life is such an accomplishment okay?  (*´・v・)
                    It’s like raising a child from scratch and molding it into a versatile someone with a personality and an extension of your own creativity and intelligence is freakin’ cool okay? It’s a bonus if you’re having fun with it and making friends!! (●´∀`●)
                    Don’t be too discouraged by other roleplayers okay? You’ll end up finding those who will really connect with you and appreciate your character if you give it a chance!!
             (ノ´ヮ´)ノ*:・゚✧ Keep on truckin’ because you are wonderful okay?

Japan. Osaka is in Japan. The mage blinked.
"What?!"
Tumblr media
"Splendid. Surprisingly splendid." Each syllable pedantically precise in that clipped British accent, each utterance shot through with the bitterest poison. Wentworth inhaled, and then exhaled in a long and grave moment.
"I am sorry for the outburst on your premises, but the spell backfiring was a complete surprise." His head inclined in a bow-like gesture. "-- And, I seem to be missing my brother."
"Osaka is a city in Japan, not Norway," informed the android, continuing to type out some directions. Boy, this was going to be a long trip it seemed, from Osaka to somewhere in Britain.
Tumblr media
"…Is there something the matter…?"

PSA: I don’t care if we’ve never rp’ed before, but if I post a meme or an open starter and you feel like replying or participating, then go right ahead. I would never hate/get mad at you for it. I would simply love you :)
