Has anyone located somewhere that carries weapons yet? I have a handgun and a hunting knife, but I'd like to see what other options there may be.

. . . I'd also deeply appreciate anywhere I can find a large umbrella. My name is Zero.

[ Vampires and rundown unforgiving desert weather do not match. Moving on to what's more important, however.]

If 'Imeeji', 'Tokyo-F', or 'transfer' mean anything at all to you, I'd like to speak.

Work Like the Rent is Due Tomorrow
[ While traveling the distance to reach the ruined coffeehouse won't be too much of an issue, given his speed, Zero opts to make the trip towards nightfall. It's much easier to move about when the sun is no longer an issue and the temperatures have begun to go down. Regardless, he has on a hooded cloak and is moving with purpose as he salvages what he can, tucking any sugar, tableware, and smaller items into a duffel bag he pilfered elsewhere.

Any assistance is certainly welcome! ]

Anything interesting over there? I think I've grabbed what sugar I'm able to find.

Operation Min-Min
[ Before anything else, it takes Zero some time to contemplate how he wants to go about subduing the Min-Mins he's located. Not that it takes much. Bringing out his gun, Bloody Rose, it isn't long before a mass of metallic, thorny rose vines erupt from it. Zero immediately, silently commands them to bind three Min-Mins down, mindful to secure their mouths shut and quickly coil tightly around their bodies. He then takes out a hunting knife to get to work.

If anyone happens to be around, he'll nod towards a container just off to the side on the ground. ]

Mind grabbing that for me?

wildcard!
[ Zero will be around Sunspire, exploring what stores and vendors have to offer, possibly trying to barter. It's pretty obvious that he's seeking shadier areas. And food/water. I'm up for any plotting, so feel free to shoot this account a PM, PP me @ existentially, or starsongs @ discord, just lmk who you are first! ]

You can make an umbrella, but it might not be portable. Cloth tends to be on the pricier end of things needing to be traded here.

[bloodyrose]

Unfortunately, I would need to be able to carry it with me.

[flashiness]

I understand, I take care of my skin too. May I suggest getting your handcrafting up? Otherwise it might be a long wait for what you seek.

[bloodyrose]

It's more a matter of being especially sensitive to the sun, with how intense and persistent it is here, which doesn't play too kindly towards vampires. I probably will be looking into making myself one ultimately, provided I can find the right types of materials.

[Hearing he needed help finding things would have been enough but reading to the very end of his message, there's something even more important.]

oh!! i know the place you're talking about!! i was there too.

Re: un:persecaria

[bloodyrose]

[ !! ]

What's your name? What unit were you on?

[wonderofwonders]

it's Otori Emu! but when i was there they called me Persecaria. i was on LiliS

[bloodyrose]

I was on Taisho. What do you make of all of this so far?

[wonderofwonders]

something definitely doesn't feel right. someone else i know is here but that's it. i don't recognize anyone else. it's been this long and there are no rules, no nothing. it's really weird.

[bloodyrose]

I hadn't even thought about the absence of rules. Same for the lack of any host. And it can't just be Hell proper. . . I don't feel like I'm grasping for my consciousness. I'm fully aware and in control.

[wonderofwonders]

mmmm... something out of their control happening isn't impossible. but i don't get that same weird feeling i used to get when i got too far from the hotel either. unless maybe it just hasn't been long enough?

[bloodyrose]

Possibly. Is your current outfit still in LiliS aesthetic?

[wonderofwonders]

yep! i remember this outfit-- it's one of the first ones i got from LiliS. what about you? do you still have your clothes from taisho?

[bloodyrose]

I arrived with my initial outfit as well, but- something else is strange. I believe I essentially went home first, in between, only to be pulled away from it again. It's hard to describe. My memories flooded back to me, at the very least.

[subside]

Does it need to be a compact umbrella?

[bloodyrose]

That would be the most ideal. Anything as long as I can easily carry it with me.

[subside]

we could make one for you, but it might take a bit to acquire the materials unless we can figure out where to source them. Can you get along with a hood or some such for now?

[bloodyrose]

That would be deeply appreciated. Yeah, some kind of hooded cloak was the first thing I searched for once I noticed what the type of environment this place has.

[subside]

understood.

we will need wood or metal, rope or plant root fibers or something similar, and the cloth. you would know what type of cloth suits your needs best.

if we had access to any type of strong adhesive, that would be an advantage.

[bloodyrose]

It just needs to provide adequate shade and protection from the sun, particularly with how it can get here, along with the heat. I don't do especially well in it, and trying to strictly move about at night likely wouldn't be the most conducive either.

[subside]

I see.

Large palm leaves may also suffice then temporarily if necessary. Contact me when you find the materials.
