Where: Archer Park

☆A Little Little Fun



On the morning of the 24th, the sun rises over Vista City and, more importantly, Archer Park- a series of rooftop parks connected to each other by bridges and overflowing greenery of all sorts. It's a popular on most days to start with. Today, however, is the day of the Double S Charity Concert. Thus, it's more packed than usual.

One of the park "islands" is home to a concert stage, and that is where the concert is taking place. All throughout the next couple of days, various musicians will perform songs they've written about or dedicated to another in the industry. With the entertainment value of the idea and the fame of the musicians, of course the place is packed.

The stage is where every musician will end up at throughout the day, performing for the masses, but behind it is also a rest area for them to either bide their time or just hang out. It's supposed to be restricted to just those musicians participating, but frankly... security is lax just enough that bandmates and the such could duck on in to see their friends. No fans, however, sorry. It's not the most impressive of places, with seating areas and a salad bar and all the pizza that could possibly be ordered, but hopefully it's good enough. This is also where one can find event organizer Jenny around, in case they need to bring anything up.

Of course, no one is required to stay back there while waiting their turn, or after they've done their performance. Attempts to raise money go beyond just the concert. Double S has all sorts of stalls set up, whether to explain to people the various causes they can specifically pledge support to, or to sell merchandise. Can't forget the food stalls. There is, of course, a stall showing adoptable animals. There always is.

Finally, there's one last thing Double S has set up for any willing celebrities. It's a meet-and-greet area for the fans, where they have the chance to meet their favorite musicians. Giving out autographs, taking pictures with fans... There's even a karaoke set up for everyone to use. Musicians can sing solo, or with others from their label, or even with a lucky fan. AKA feel free to get NPC MP here. Hopefully, it'll get some good publicity for those interested in that kind of thing.

Tickets have been made astonishingly cheap in the hopes that more people will show, with anything else being made up by merchandise sales or donations.

[ As concerning as that reaction to merchandise might be, there are more pressing matters here. Namely, Squalo had noticed the egg-head speaking with Genos and the latter looking all love-struck, and while he hasn't heard nearly as much details as Kido has, he's starting to piece it together. ]

[ So as soon as Saitama's relatively separated from the crowd (as in, not too far away and possible to reach without shoving elbows in people's stomachs), he'll be approaching him. ]

[ ...and sort of just circling him without saying anything, eyeing him up and down with a slight snarl, his lips curled just enough to show a bit of teeth. Just like a displeased dog, though his presence might feel just a little bit more evil darker than an annoyed pup. ]

[ You don't exactly look like a hero. ]
heroforfun: (Blank stare)

[personal profile] heroforfun 2016-02-02 01:05 pm (UTC)(link)
[Most people would be intimidated, probably. But Saitama's just standing there, sipping on his milkshake.]
sharktrash: (serious // talking)

[personal profile] sharktrash 2016-02-02 01:16 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Alright. Definitely infuriating. It'd probably remind him of certain shounen protagonists if he, you know, remembered any of them. ]

[ As is, he decides he should confirm his suspicions first, so eventually he'll stop right in front the guy and cant his head slightly to the side. ]


How do you know Genos?
heroforfun: (Muscle buddha)

[personal profile] heroforfun 2016-02-02 01:17 pm (UTC)(link)
[Oh, hey. He smiles.]

Are you a friend of his?
sharktrash: (unsure // what the fuck)

[personal profile] sharktrash 2016-02-02 01:32 pm (UTC)(link)
[ ??? ]

[ WHAT A FEARLESS INDIVIDUAL ]


Yes. [ His expression goes a little flat. His vanity just took a punch below the belt, okay. ] You actually don't know me.
heroforfun: (Muscle buddha)

[personal profile] heroforfun 2016-02-02 01:33 pm (UTC)(link)
Not at all. Keep an eye out for that guy, yeah? He's reckless.
sharktrash: (blank // i don't give a fuck)

[personal profile] sharktrash 2016-02-02 01:50 pm (UTC)(link)
I try. It's harder than it sounds.

[ Says the guy who'd probably be in jail by now if it wasn't for Genos, but still. At least he knows how to chill in his downtime. The same can't be said for his "I'm supposed to be made of metal" buddy. ]

[ Narrowing his eyes; ]


So you do know him.
heroforfun: (Don't disappoint me)

[personal profile] heroforfun 2016-02-02 01:51 pm (UTC)(link)
[He just shrugs.]

Name's Makoto. Genos was following me.
sharktrash: (neutral // what are you looking at)

[personal profile] sharktrash 2016-02-02 01:54 pm (UTC)(link)
Do you know why?

[ ...yeah he's pointedly not introducing himself. Yet. ]
heroforfun: (chit chat)

[personal profile] heroforfun 2016-02-02 01:55 pm (UTC)(link)
He thinks I'm amazing, or something. It's hard to tell, I tune out when he talks for more than twenty words.
sharktrash: (frown // ugh gross)

[personal profile] sharktrash 2016-02-02 02:04 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Okay, scratch his "mission". This guy here evidently doesn't care about being fanboyed by a friggin superstar. Frankly, he's much more used to things being the other way around. ]

...seriously? Who the fuck do you think you are?
heroforfun: (chit chat)

[personal profile] heroforfun 2016-02-02 02:05 pm (UTC)(link)
[Saitama is a weeeeeird guy.]

I'm an average guy.
sharktrash: (unsure // what the fuck)

[personal profile] sharktrash 2016-02-02 02:10 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Forreals. It's like he's so average that the averageness is absolutely suspicious among all these non-average guys around. ]

Then start acting like it. And listen when better people talk to you.

[ Whoa Squalo sit down. He must really think highly of Genos huh. ]
heroforfun: (Squints at)

[personal profile] heroforfun 2016-02-02 02:18 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh. Did you come over to start a fight? Because I don't really feel like it.
sharktrash: (grin // just die already)

[personal profile] sharktrash 2016-02-02 02:22 pm (UTC)(link)
Up to you.

[ He grins. It's rather unkind. No, he doesn't really want to start a fight right here and now either, but if he has to... ]

Just saying, if I find out you hurt his feelings or something I will find you and peel all the skin off your dumb face.

[ ...threats come surprisingly easily to him lately. Probably best if Cyborg Prince doesn't hear about this, though. ]
heroforfun: (Casually grabs a sword)

[personal profile] heroforfun 2016-02-02 02:24 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, yeah. I'd rather not waste my time on a disappointing fight.

[This guy is like a brick wall when it comes to that stuff - literally anybody else would probably be at least a little worried or angry at the threat, but Saitama is just so unimpressed.]

He's not my kid, I'm not responsible for his feelings.
sharktrash: (frown // unamused)

[personal profile] sharktrash 2016-02-02 02:34 pm (UTC)(link)
You're really pissing me off right now.

[ What an arrogant bastard. Just like Xanxus. Who, to be fair, did win a fistfight against him, so it'd probably be wise not to start anything... but he's not wise, he's temperamental, or something. ]

Congratulations, now you are. Actually, just stay the hell away.
heroforfun: (We can change)

[personal profile] heroforfun 2016-02-02 02:35 pm (UTC)(link)
If you're his friend, I'll protect you, too.
Edited (nah just back to vague) 2016-02-02 14:43 (UTC)
sharktrash: (sweatdrop // woops)

[personal profile] sharktrash 2016-02-02 02:51 pm (UTC)(link)
[ ?????!!?!?!?! ]

[ Good news: Squalo's urge to fight seems to have deflated for now. Bad news: he's utterly and completely baffled. What the fuck just happened? Who is this person? Just what. ]

[ He edges away and side-eyes him as if he's a venemous spider on the shower wall. ]


...I can take care of myself, no thanks.
heroforfun: (Casually grabs a sword)

[personal profile] heroforfun 2016-02-02 02:53 pm (UTC)(link)
[Forever unflappable, but Squalo actually has his full attention as Saitama stares right into his face. There's something odd about that emotionally blank stare, especially since it's still focused. He's a freak, Squalo has every right to stare at him like he's a dangerous spider.]

So? What's your name?
sharktrash: (grin // tattoo it on your eyeballs)

[personal profile] sharktrash 2016-02-02 03:01 pm (UTC)(link)
[ HE WILL CONTINUE TO DO SO, THEN. ]

[ How did it turn around like this? Buuut if this is the person Genos had been mooning over, he supposes that unshake-ability is rather impressive. ]


Squalo. [ Want him to snap out of shock, ask him about himself. His voice gradually returns into its normal, loud and confident quality, and he grins again, this time less threatening and more smug. ] Or "flawless", if you prefer. I'm the best cellist in the world.

[ HE'S PROBABLY NOT but hey never let facts get in the way of a good story. ]
heroforfun: (Is it fun?)

[personal profile] heroforfun 2016-02-02 07:56 pm (UTC)(link)
Ah. Is that fun? Being the best?
sharktrash: (diplomatic // no srsly keep your trash)

[personal profile] sharktrash 2016-02-02 09:08 pm (UTC)(link)
[ ...hey that's actually a good question. He supposes it might get boring if people stop challenging his genius, but... ]

So far so good.
heroforfun: (Is it fun?)

[personal profile] heroforfun 2016-02-02 09:08 pm (UTC)(link)
Good. I'm glad for you.
sharktrash: (blank // calm)

[personal profile] sharktrash 2016-02-02 09:13 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Blink. ]

[ Blink blink. ]

[ Slooowly starts backing off, as if dealing with a wild bear or something. ]

[ Then curiosity wins out. ]


Do you listen to music at all?
