Location: Residential District: Shopping Center
((January 27th, evening))
The park is a place where many people take walks and hang out, humans and reploids alike, all enjoying a quiet evening. There is a particular man sitting on one of the benches, with a rabbit with cybernetic implants sitting on his lap, an odd sight indeed, and he appears to be taking a snooze.
Of course, he opens his eyes suddenly and yawns, covering his mouth with a hand, he looks around.
"Oh... it's this late already?" Akira said to himself as he watches the fading daylight, there are still some people walking around, but there's definitely less than before. "Hrm.... I should really get back to the shop now, right Metal?" Akira asks Metal sitting on his lap, and petted him. The rabbit didn't answer, of course, it can't talk, but it does looked content at being petted.
"Right.... maybe I should stay here for a while longer, it's not like there's a lot of customers these days..." Akira sighs, he do need to find a mechanic soon, that can fix tools, he can't do that, he breaks things further if broken tools are given to him, like that bent pair of shears.... he accidentally broke it in half.... it was a accident though.
It was easier said than done, who would willing to work for such a small tool shop like his?

((OOC: Muahahaha... let's set up another alliance between these two~!))
And indeed, the park was where many people hung out. Sitting not too far away from Akira was this twenty-year-old. It had been several weeks since he had encountered Julianne and Model Jw, but for now, he had driven the incident out of his mind and was adding the final touches on the toy pogostick that he had promised Model Q.
"We're getting there, kiddo. Don't you worry about it."
//...~//
Yep, things were good. Once he got that done, he didn't have to really worry about it too much, and could instead focus on finding customers that needed their items fixed. That way, he could actually be able to afford more than 10 cups of ramen for 10 EC.

Akira tilts his head a little when he heard someone....talking? Well, the only other person that is near him is this 20 year old that is currently fiddling with something....
Curiosity did get a little better at him, so he tried to look at what he was doing... oh, is that a pogostick? You don't see that a lot these days.
"You don't see that a lot these days."
Oh...crap, did he said that out loud? "Sorry... I didn't mean to pry, haha...." He said a little apologetically

Ah, the park. Such a wonderful place to be. Especially for this boy which enjoys this place. It's a shame nobody stops to watch the mother nature taking place... even if it's being ripped apart little by little with all the shops around. For Thetis, though, eating a bowl of ramen is better if the place the restaurant stays is covered by fresh air, like the one he's currently at.
"Hmm. Delicious! Can I have another one please?" Said, asking the cook selling these, which replied yes with a smile and served a generous portion to Thetis. "Thanks!"
Starting to eat his second bowl his eyes get caught by a man occupied with a toy pogo-stick. Wow! Do these still exist?

As for Aven, he put the finishing touches on that pogostick toy that he had been building for Model Q, before putting his tools down on top of his bag. He grinned, and then looked at his pocket where Q was hiding.
"There we go, all done~."
"...~!"
Before either of them could say anything else, he heard a man near him talk about the pogostick. Q let out a squeak and sank further into Aven's pocket, while Aven nearly jumped and looked up at the man standing above him, who seemed to be looking at the pogostick.
"Nah, its okay. It was just something that I was making for fun." He didn't take any special notice of the kid at the restaurant.

"Oh I see... did you make that yourself?" Akira asks, getting really curious by now, it was quite an amazing feat to be able to create a toy out of junk.... not to mention if it's just for fun... is he a mechanic?
"Oops, sorry, I forgot to introduce myself, my name is Akira, nice to meet you." Akira extends a hand shake to Aven, and then he asks, rather awkwardly. "If you don't mind, can I sit here with you?"

Nomming on his ramen bowl he looks around. Mostly the kids. He sees a kite being pulled by one of them, another is playing with a dog... He wonders why he grew up so fast... probably because of the game of destiny but... at least he can take care of himself thanks to L.
His eyes go back to the man with the pogostick, which is now talking to someone. Thetis wonders if he would sell the toy. That looks to be fun to play with.

"Yeah, yeah, I did make it by myself, out of scrap metal I found."
Aven beamed a bit with pride, grinning at the man. He was quite happy with the toy pogostick that he had made. Now that he knew how to make them, it was probably going to be much easier the next time that he made it. Hm. If kids other than Q were interested in these, he could probably make a few and sell them.
"It's okay, I didn't introduce myself either! My name's Aven Phare; nice to meet you... Akira, was it?"
Aven stood up, shaking Akira's hand, and then shrugged as the other asked whether he could sit down with him. Nope, no problem, even if Q was not going to be a chatterbox because there was another person present.
"Sure, why not? I was just by myself, anyways."

"That's amazing!" Akira said as he sat beside the young man, he smiled when he asked about his name. "Yeah, Akira, but you can call me Aki if you like."
"Um...." There is this rather troubled expression on his face, as if there something he wanted to ask but feeling rather hesitant. "Um... are you by chance, hire--" He never get to finish his sentence because Metal was freed from his hands and jumped on Aven's lap.
"Metal!" He exclaimed, before quickly taking the bunny back and put it on his lap. "Bad Metal, you shouldn't do that!" Metal just flails as he was taken off Aven's lap and place on his owner's lap, and blinked at Aki in reply as he scolded him.
"Oh.... I'm sorry, this is Metal, my pet rabbit." Aki apologized as Aven might be staring at him by now. "He's a little bit feisty...haha...."

((OOC: Trigs mentioned he was skipping his turn as Thetis.))
"Hn, really? It's just something that I do for fun." It was quite nice to be praised for stuff that he was good at, even if he was doing everything for fun.
"Alright, Aki then, and, hire? What did you need me to do-"
Whoa, that rabbit just jumped from Aki's lap into his and stared at him. Aven chuckled and affectionately petted the rabbit behind the ears before Aki took him back. What a hyperactive little rabbit!
"Ah, no problem, I don't mind. Metal, was it? Seems like quite the friendly one."

Akira petted his rabbit rather absent-mindedly, it's something he do with realizing it He chuckled a little.
"Haha, well, I'm afraid he's a little too hyperactive at times." He paused, tilted his head a bit before continuing. "He likes to run off somewhere sometimes, and I had to keep an eye on him. Right? You little bad rabbit?" He asks Metal in a teasing tone, and the rabbit just twitch it's ears.
"Oh! Where was I..." Akira suddenly realized than he had gone off topic because of Metal's sudden interruption. "Oh yes, I was wondering if you are working for someone else. You see, I own a tool shop, but I'm rather short on hands at the moment, and we really do need a mechanic with your skills to repair broken tools customers send to our shop....which I'm afraid I'm not really good at it." Oh Aki, you're not only bad at repairing tools, you're horrible at it.
"If you're already hired it's fine, forget what I said, but.... if you're not... are you interested in working for us?"
