1st junk sale | [Action]

[So, for those who were wondering what happened to the newest thief after such a dazzling battle with those Riders, he is in the medbay of the White Chalice, surprisingly awake now after several hours knocked out. Currently, he is just tugging at the handcuffs that are linking him to the bed in desperation, growling. Eventually though, he does stop, but to take a breather.]

Okay, is this really necessary? It's not like I was the one who intentionally smashed the Dijeh! [Or in the mobile suits case: sliced to ribbons and barely even functioning.]

What happened? Okay, for the costume dudes' problems, ask them, because I can't even BEGIN to describe what happened! [But riding on a dragon to throw a beam naginata at a so-called immortal enemy was cool.]

As for what happened, I was just there because I heard there might be some decent materials and mobile suits I could sell and salvage for back home. So I go there, get in the Dijeh, Roux drags me out to where the bad guys are, I'll help/nearly die while getting the Dijeh literally sliced apart, and somehow I am alive and not thinking I was on drugs or anything.

Guess it was bad luck of the draw for you. I'm fairly certain that Tsukasa could tell you about the presence of Riders at Bunch 30, though I commend you for living through that mess.

Still, you said you were there to salvage mobile suit parts, right? You seem to be a bit young to be with the Junk Guild.

Not like I had much of a choice. Those wars and battles have seen to that.

[Kamille feels you, bud. Titans ruined his life.]

So, where are you from, kid?

[Not that he's much older himself, mind.]

[Not gonna let down his guard, but he didn't seem like one of the soldiers around here.]

The name's Judau, just so you know.

And I'm from Shangri-La.

[A smile as he takes a seat near the boy.] Kamille Bidan, from Green Noa. What's Shangri-la like, Judau?

[Judau on the other hand is not smiling, but is at least comfortable enough to bring up some stuff about home.]

Crap, for starters. If you're a rich snob, fine. If you're like me though, you can barely afford to make a living. And even when you do try to salvage junk, there's always competition that gets in the way. And if you get in their way, they have a habit of making things more difficult.

[And considering they were all older and could outpower Judau, going against them was about as effective as attacking a wild bear with a stick.]

[The smile drops for a more neutral face.]

It must suck to have to deal with that, then. I can see why you'd be willing to head to bunch 30 in such circumstances.

[thinks back to his parents and their non-presence in his own life.]

Got any family?

If I was told that giant immortal aliens were around though, I might have reconsidered. [He knew the difference between absolute death and taking a gamble.

At the mention of family, he only growls.]

Parents abandoned me when my sister was only like four. Since then, I've had to take care of her. [His anger lessens at least when he speaks of Leina.] Honestly, she's the real reason I went to that colony in the first place. If there was anyone that really needed to get out of there and make something of themself, it's her.

[ouch. A tone of bitterness is present as he speaks of his own family.]

I can relate to bad parents. They may not have abandoned me, but the way they ignored everyone in the family to the exlcusion of themselves was ridiculous. Father was always actively cheating on Mother, usually using my own things to give as gifts, while my Mother threw herself into her work, for the Titans no less. I didn't have any other siblings, but I honestly wouldn't be surprised if I have a few illegitimate half-brothers or half-sisters from dad's affairs.

[lightens up at the mention of a sister.]

There's this girl on the ship, Fate, she's really young, younger than you, even, and yet she's already incredibly skilled at most of the things she does. I might not have siblings, but I can understand why you're willing to go such lengths for your sister, Judau.

[For once, Judau was feeling sympathetic towards this guy. His are wide with a bit of surprise after listening to that short tale. Still he remained silent through both tales before smiling at Kamille.]

Gotta admit, surprising stuff...but thanks.

[That gets a smile back.]

It's no trouble, Judau. Hopefully when all of this is cleared up we can send you back to your sister.

Yeah. Thankfully she's with Beecha and Elle--

[And cue wide-eyed shocked Judau as he put two and two together.]

Wait, if Beecha is there...oh no...

[He stares at Kamille.] Does this place got a monitor or something I can call from? I think I just realized I may have another problem.

[That's no good.]

Here, you can use my communicator. [hands him the device.] What's wrong?

My so-called partner tends to have a big mouth on him. If Beecha ends up spreading any lies and I can't deliver, we're gonna be in a lot of trouble!

[After turning the device on, thankfully he is able to talk to his friend. Banter was indeed held, much to Judau's annoyance, and soon enough, after much discussion and yelling on Judau's end not to screw everything up and tell Leina that he is already trying to figure out a way to send money, he ended the transmission.]

Okay, one gigantic problem solved at least. [He sighs.] Okay, they're all alright, thankfully. Still, if I can't even earn some cash by selling junk, things aren't gonna go to well for Leina. [He gives the device back to Kamille.] Thanks though. Saved me from turning into a ghost there!

It's no trouble. Still, I have a few ideas about the money issues, but I'm not sure how receptive to them you'd be.

...I'm listening. [Not like he could do much else, and he was curious as to what was Kamille planning.]

Idea 1: How do you feel about repair work?

You think they would let me near a suit after last time?

So long as you were supervised I'm sure. I'm certainly willing to vouch for you, and it'd be nice to have some help in the hangars, what with it only being Lowe, MarKus, Yuu, and me in my off time from the kitchen.

The captain's a nutcase to begin with, so it'll probably slide past him easily.

Edited 2012-01-23 00:08 (UTC)

[Judau shrugs.] Better than janitor duty at least. And as long as that captain doesn't shriek as loud as Roux's, I think I am up for it.

Thanks um...[He raised an eyebrow.] What was your name again?

[A sigh] Kamille. It's no trouble. You seem like a good guy, Judau, and I wouldn't want you to go home to your sister empty handed.

Already going to get an ear-full from her, but hopefully the cash can make me less deaf.

[deadpan] I suggest investing in a hearing aid all the same.
