[Semi-Open] A Nurse with No Name

[clumsynurse]

After discarding a majority of anything that had some semblance of familiarity in her wardrobe, Compa found herself in a village on the outskirts of Eastern Planeptune.

Using spare credits, she took on the plain black long dress of ceremonial robes with a deep hood to conceal herself. She was nearly out of her home nation and as minutes ticked by, she knew she had to at least be across the border soon. There were a lot of places she could stop and hide once out of the boundaries of what was familiar.

Comments

[clumsynurse]

Compa was pushed forward as the doors opened. A rush of people left her wedged and pushed right up to them!

"Eek! Sorry sorry!"

[lovelettergeneral]

Stumbling forward with a look back. "Ah it's okay! Let me help you- Compa!!" A happy exclamation as she grabs her friend.

[chalicerouzer]

"Compa-chan?" Looking around as she was usually flanked by her taller partner. "Are you alright? What are you doing out this way?"

[clumsynurse]

"Ah!" A shushing. "Emmm...I'm just headed...out. I need to gather for my stores. I've been wiped out of a lot of my supplies...ehehe..."

[lovelettergeneral]

"By yourself? What's with the robe?" A blink. Something wasn't right here. She had no gear.

"Ne, ne! Did you want to accompany us? Seeing as you are going our way! It could be fun to catch up!"

Offering a rub to her back.

[chalicerouzer]

"Yes, it's dangerous out here. We just finished a major bounty ourselves" ushering them away from the major push of people boarding the train with them.

A grimace of annoyance, but hey! They find some decent seats.

[clumsynurse]

"Oh um...Takeshi has been sick. So he's staying home. I'll be alright. Ah s-sure..!"

A bit of a forced smile, keeping her hood up when she sat by the window

[lovelettergeneral]

"Oh no! Well, we wish him a speedy recovery, right?~" a small smile to her and nudging her Rider.

"How is Neptune and the others? I wanted to stop in but we were pressed for time"

[chalicerouzer]

"Oof-erm...yeah"

A slow nod and reassuring smile to Compa as well as Saori. "So what is it you're in need of?"

[clumsynurse]

"He'll be alright. He always hangs tough"

An uneasy smile, looking down at her hands.

"A few rare herbs. People have been so sick lately, I've lost track of restocking..."

[lovelettergeneral]

"Are you sure you're okay? You're acting a little strange" grasping her friends hand.

[chalicerouzer]

"How are you going to collect them? Looks like you misplaced your gear"

The nurse had nothing with her, so this was a bit odd.

[clumsynurse]

"Yes! Just...just tired" a nod to affirm. It wasn't totally false.

"I was thinking of buying new gear anyway! My other ones were so old!"

[lovelettergeneral]

She wouldn't press for now. A nod.

"Well! We'll be sure to guide you to wherever!" A ping that their stop was coming up soon.

"All set?"

[chalicerouzer]

"Let's make our way over so we're not bulldozed"

[clumsynurse]

"Mmm, I didn't expect it to be so packed..." but the more cover the better

[lovelettergeneral]

"Neither did I, but it's okay! We wouldn't have ran into you otherwise!~"

[chalicerouzer]

Once the tram slows, he would usher both of them off to avoid having them get knocked into.

People filing in or out all around them once again.

[clumsynurse]

It was a snug exit, but they made it through!

Compa giving a bit of a glance around. She seemed to be in the clear for now. A faint sigh of relief

[lovelettergeneral]

"Phew! Finally, some fresh air..." Shaking her hair out with a stretch. "Everyone okay?"

[chalicerouzer]

"Thankfully now" a sigh.

"Let's branch out a bit from here"

[clumsynurse]

Compa near them, but a bit more of a space between. Standoff-ish, glancing around out of nerves.

[lovelettergeneral]

"Ne, ne...let's see-ah!"
Pointing to an inn. "How about we drop our things off and look around? A nice change of pace instead of sleeping outdoors"

[chalicerouzer]

Nodding. He wishes he could spare no expense for her, but work was at times difficult to come by.

"Sounds like a plan. Let us see what the night life can entail."

[clumsynurse]

"Oh...sure" a small nod.

"That's a good idea. Maybe also scope out how citizens are and what is the newest gossip!"
