[A short pause.]

That could have gone better. [Pause, pause... he draws something that looks like a jellyfish.] Anyone know what happened to my box?

[ooc: Scribbled out words are partially readable if you stare/squint at them. Cloud spent today just sort of... wandering around ES aimlessly, so it's possible he ran into various people throughout the day. If you want to say he ran into your character, that's cool. Just make a note of it in the tag or something /handwaves]

Looks like I won't be sleeping in any of these inns. [Pause] I hope the weather stays nice tonight.

Did anyone need help bringing anything else down here?

[Longer pause]

Pollux, did you and Castor make it down find a place to stay?

Looks like those crystals really are popping up everywhere. [Pause.] I would like to know how one managed to end up in my coat pocket. And does anyone know why couldn't I see anything in my memory? I'm assuming it had something to do with the crystal itself.

[Pause.]

Pollux, are you busy? I have a favor to ask.

[Pause, pause]

Mushi

[ooc: If your character can read Japanese kanji feel free to see that as 'insect'... but it should translate as mushi for everyone else.]

[Backdated slightly to shortly after his birth, on the 8th. The drawing is... so not mine, lolz.

A few small drops of ink, as he hesitates before putting pen to paper. The words look awkward and stiff, and there are ink splatters here and there; someone isn't used to writing with a pen.]

Before I do anything else I need a better coat, and maybe some other clothes. This place isn't the warmest. Is there a shop or something that sells clothes? What else is for sale in that 'Bazaar' place?

Sky said I had to get a job or I'll get kicked out eventually. [Slight pause here before the writing resumes.] I saw the list so I know what jobs there are, but can someone tell me what the duties are of… say, an adventurer. Or what the duties are of any job, I'm keeping my options open here.

[Pause]

Oh yeah, the name's Cloud.
