[ Celty was gone.

Shizuo hadn't really known what to make of this place. The lack of Izaya was certainly a plus, but the feeling of being trapped wasn't exactly a good one... and the bizarre things that happened just outside the door weren't much better. He didn't like it at all, couldn't even begin to wrap his head around it.

It was better to get some semblance of normalcy. Unemployment didn't suit him. Everything was free and he didn't need to pay for the things he damaged, but the job was more about actually doing something and getting out of the house. Being normal.

There was a bar here. He'd heard it from the few times he'd opened the journal here. ~~he was already well dressed for it so why not~~ He was still familiar with the work and had enjoyed it the last time he'd been there. And so, Shizuo can be found either by the fountain taking a smoke today, or at Good Spirits trying to get a job. ]

[ She's not familiar with this area; that was probably why she was having trouble finding her way back to her house. Though she wasn't that worried...

Okay, she was. It wasn't that she'll probably have to sleep outside if she doesn't find the house soon. It was because her brother would throw a fit if she's not back by time he returns. And lord only knows what action he would take.

A brief shiver goes down her spine at the thought. She takes another turn down the path and finds a fountain before her very eyes. Then her eyes trails off to an older man sitting by smoking a cigarette. Maybe he could give her directions. ]

Excuse me sir! I'm terribly sorry to bother you but I'm a bit lost. Could you perhaps point me to the right direction?
