[011: Action]

[technologic]

[April has been busy the last few days; with all this stuff about the church going on, April needed to get her computer lab set up for some info gathering. Plus, there's that whole Valentine's thing, which has made her more anxious, and she needed to get something she promised she'd get for someone. So today, April can be seen around town either:

1.) Walking down the streets carrying a pile of boxes; this wouldn't be too much of a problem if the boxes didn't block her vision, so she currently can't see where she's going. Luckily, she has been able to to avoid bumping into anyone, even though a few times her tower of boxes almost looks ready to topple over and it doesn't help that she's carrying a few bags too. Don't worry though, she'll try not to walk into anyone.

OR

2.) Later in the day, April has decided to go to the park and is now seated underneath one of the tress there. And she's tinkering with... something, humming to herself as she does so. Judging by the faint frown on her face, the tinkering doesn't seem to be going to well (the thing may have just sparked at her for a moment there), but she continues to hum while she works.]

[You are lucky, because Ledah will just take a few boxes off the top of the tower without asking.]

[technologic]

[Oh hey, she can see again. She blinks in surprise for a moment, before glancing over at Ledah.]

Ah, t-thanks, Ledah! [She shifts the boxes she still has a hold of; they aren't light, so not having to carry so many is a relief.]

[gaveupfeeling]

Don't mention it. Back to our room, I assume?

[technologic]

[She nods a few times, squeaking quietly when her now smaller tower wobbles for a moment.] Y-yep!

[gaveupfeeling]

Understood.

[He doesn't need directions to get there.]

[technologic]

[Despite her tower almost toppling over a few times, there's no problems on the way back to their room

And when they get there, she carefully places her boxes and bags on the table with a sigh of relief.] Ah, thanks again, Ledah

[gaveupfeeling]

Not a problem. I happened to be passing by.

[technologic]

Good thing you were passing by when you did, or this would have been way harder to carry... Though I probably shouldn't have tried to carry so much at once.

[gaveupfeeling]

Many people in this city have cars. You're fortunate that the hotel is within walking distance at all.

[technologic]

[She gives a sheepish laugh.] That's true. Maybe I should try to learn how to drive one day though, it'll make carrying stuff like this easier.

[She goes to open one of the boxes, which contains computer parts, just to check if they're still intact after all the almost falls April had, and luckily they still are.]

[gaveupfeeling]

...I have no idea what that is.

[technologic]

Hmm, this stuff? It's computer parts. I've been working on building computers for the last few months, and I'm nearly done.

[gaveupfeeling]

I've never seen the inside of a computer... I've never seen a computer before I came here.

[technologic]

[She tilts her head slightly.] Well, I can show you one day. I just need to get my lab finished, and then I can show you.

[gaveupfeeling]

I look forward to it.

[technologic]

[April smiles brightly, before she remembers something.] Oh, I just remembered... [And now she's offering one of the bags she was carrying to Ledah.] Here, I bought you something!

[Around the tree, on the other side, there's a soft rustling sound -- possibly hard to hear over all the concentrating happening on April's side.]

[It's a bit harder to miss the familiar melody that starts to flow from around the flora a few minutes afterwards, however.]

[technologic]

[April stops what she's doing when she hears the song, and just listens to it for a while.

And then cue her curiously peering around the tree a few moments later.]

[devola]

[You know that thing where someone seems to have eyes in the back-or-side of their head?]

Heya.

[Considering the eyes in the front of Dev's head are closed, and she's not turning to face April quite yet, that would be a Thing she is doing.]

[technologic]

Hi, Devola. [She moves around the tree so that she's sitting near the other woman, the thing she was working on still clutched in her hands, though most of her attention is on the music now. She actually starts humming along with it after a moment, but it's pretty faint humming.]

[gaveupfeeling]

Oh, thank you. [Curiously, Ledah takes the bag and opens it.]

[technologic]

[Inside it will be one kite; a red one with a nice design. And her expression turns slightly sheepish.] Ah, well, I did say I was gonna buy you a kite. I had meant to buy it earlier, but I've been kinda distracted lately...

[devola]

[She just keeps playing, eventually opening at least one eye. She waits for a lull in the humming before speaking again -- don't wanna interrupt April, after all.]

How ya doin'? Enjoying the bit of warmth in between bouts of chill?

[gaveupfeeling]

Thank you. It's a lovely kite, and I look forward to using it.

[technologic]

[April doesn't really notice that she is humming; it's a habit she does without noticing it. So, she pretty much answers her question right away.]

I've been good. I'm happy that it's getting warmer, since I'm not a fan of the cold. How're you?
