Fourth Wall Catch-All

This is a catchall post for all of my characters in the 4th wall, for both days; please let me know who a tag is for in the subject!



Sheena has work to do, and spends most of her two days in the tea shop, making and serving tea and trying to handle crowd control. This all feels so familiar it makes her shiver, but she doesn't get a sinister sense from it all, wings or no wings. Of course, it's still a bad idea to take her by surprise, particularly from behind.


Nephry, once she figures out the influx of newcomers is strange and confusing at best, leaves off trying to do anything with them through the Welcome Center and spends her time in the cafe instead. The last time there was an abundance of new people like this, it was really a cultist invasion. She's not willing to be caught unawares again - whether it was her fault last time or not. When not at the cafe, she'll be at house 1.


Mia isn't due in for work but checks in on both clinics anyway, thinking that the population burst might end in some...conflicts. Other than that, she stays in house 16 out of the way when she can. It's crowded enough without one more person milling about looking uncertain.


Luke is no dummy. Once he sees a few people reunited with others from their homes, he goes everywhere he can, just...hoping. His favorite places in which to hope are the bakery, the library, and around the fountain until he gets to cold he's back in the bakery again. He looks around expectantly almost the entire time.


Raven has the smithy to use as a sanctuary, and she's never been more thankful that she can recall. It's no place for people to just gather; when they try, she's well within her rights to tell them to either shop or leave. That's how she likes it. On her lunch break and any other time she'll be in the restaurant, despite hating the crowd.


Rue almost wants to get enough people together that she could dance for them. Dance with Mytho for them, maybe. She has everything she needs here, and lacks most of the things she doesn't want, so apart from trying to keep Mytho from getting lost, she doesn't really care about all the new people milling around. She keeps an eye out for ravens, of course.

[Oh no.

Oh no.

That voice.]


Inspector! [Not that Luke's ever been able to deter him from his usual hysterics.] Inspector Grosky!
youarebusted: (thinking)

Eh? Who's there?

[That's a very familiar voice. But Grosky swivels a bit for a moment without noticing him... sometimes he doesn't notice people who are beneath his chest level.

But then, he thinks to peer down and sees the boy.]


It's you! You're caught up in this mess too, eh, boy?
hisapprentice: (look at this thing!)

[personal profile] hisapprentice 2014-01-27 02:21 am (UTC)(link)
[Wow, he's not that short anymore! Get that pompous hair out of your face, Grosky!]

I've been here for a long time, sir. Trust me, you won't get anywhere by shouting.
youarebusted: (shirtless action)

[He does adjust his pompadour. Is it a trick of his eyes, or does the boy look quite taller...?]

A long time? Now that's a story if I ever heard one! Was only days ago, I saw you at the Monte D'eor. Figures you lot pop up wherever there's an unusual case! Where's the Professor at? If the culprits aren't revealing themselves, I might as well chew on his brain for a bit!

[As much as Grosky loved getting cases done himself, especially when it involved pile-driving crooks into the asphalt, he had increasingly come to accept the value in hearing the professor's insights.]
hisapprentice: (inconceivable!)

[personal profile] hisapprentice 2014-01-29 03:12 am (UTC)(link)
Monte D'or? Inspector, that was four whole years ago! It's been forever since then!
youarebusted: (pomp)

[personal profile] youarebusted 2014-01-29 06:24 am (UTC)(link)
Four years? What're you trying to sell me, boy? [He jabs an accusatory finger.] I remember it like it was yesterday! In fact, I think I still have some sand stuck in my hair, courtesy of that blasted desert!
hisapprentice: (no way!)

[personal profile] hisapprentice 2014-01-30 05:11 am (UTC)(link)
I'm not selling you anything, sir, it's true! We left Monte D'or years ago! [Look, Luke got himself a whole sweater in the interim.]
youarebusted: (shirtless action)

It's impossible! Where's Layton gone off to? I'd like to have some words with him!
hisapprentice: (table slam!)

[personal profile] hisapprentice 2014-02-01 06:17 am (UTC)(link)
He's not here, sir.

[Luke keeps his composure through saying it, but it's still hard.]

He's back in London where he belongs.
youarebusted: (pomp)

[personal profile] youarebusted 2014-02-02 12:00 am (UTC)(link)
Is that so? [He peers down suspiciously.] I thought the two of you were thick as thieves these days! Or should I say, thief catchers? [He barks a laugh for a moment.] I don't see Emmy around, neither... Don't tell me you're on your own, lad.
hisapprentice: (ha! got it!)

[personal profile] hisapprentice 2014-02-03 04:32 pm (UTC)(link)
Right now, I sort of am. This isn't London either. [And he does not relish explaining what it is to Clamp Grosky.]
youarebusted: (shirtless action)

[personal profile] youarebusted 2014-02-18 03:32 am (UTC)(link)
Is that so? [He says in a very disbelieving town.] Who's responsible for this, then? Americans?
