Who: Tidus & You! (Open!)
Where: Kitchen car, around, where pets can be petted (or bite him)
When: Grasshopper 16 onwards (can include a few days before)
What: Tidus has a 'bet' that's less of a bet now and more 'see what doing chores consistently does for your points', but also just generally around the train too!
Warnings: should be nothing!

( ooc: Tidus will easily approach others so if you want to set up a thread where he'd need to be the one to say hi, go for it! above is some areas where he'd be to do such or even for your character to do it first. o7 )

1. aid // for purple team CR:
- Tidus has an objective, first coming from a bet of 'who can get the most points!' to 'okay, but do you get anything out of doing chores than the sense of self-satisfaction of helping out the community (pffft, boriiing)'? That's what Tidus wants to do, and suuure, he really has no reason to think that chores gives you anything when he hasn't...been the best at them, but.
That's not stopping his little inner nag from wanting him to find out, and what better way to run experiments with a friendly face? Perhaps an unsuspecting one, when he comes to a Purple-clothed team and starts, with a bright and familiar face on him.
"Heyyy. You free?"
2. cleaning:
- ( a. kitchen ) Or maybe he's already recruited your character, they were already there to do chores, or they just happen to be in the kitchen at the time, which great! Tidus is easy with conversation, piping up with a "Hey!" to anyone that comes into the kitchen, and for those he's already with, ask, "You meet anyone interesting on the platform?", "You order anything in?", "So, what'd you think about that last mission?"
Despite this, he is trying to do as much he can think of to do: Put the plates and cutlery through the dishwashers, set them aside to be put away again; mopping the floor (and even saying to those he's partnered with beforehand, 'I'll do the floor', like it's his personal mission). And he's fine with clearing up some of the trays and bowls by hand in the sink, but he's...rather awkward about it. Minding how deep his left hand goes in, his SCA still strapped around his wrist, and doing what he can to make sure it doesn't hit the water. And maybe even looking around and seeing if there's anything he can put around it. Can he tuck kitchen roll around it...? ...he does try...
( b. bathrooms ) lol no he won't and YOU CAN'T MAKE HIM.
3. around
- Otherwise, Tidus can be found around normally on the train. He's often trying out the sports in the gynasium, from badminton, tennis, to volleyball, and if your character happens to like to join there too, he won't be afraid to ask, "Hey, mind if I join in?"; he's on the lookout to see who's into sports, or who might be checking out the room with interest.
He also takes part in the training gym, whether in one of the group sessions or taking time in it setting up obstacles with the balancing beams, ropes, and so forth. The floor is lava and you need to run across the beams, jumping onto the climbing set and swing across the next lot! He's a monkey with too much energy. Or maybe your character is already up to something in there?
Tidus does know how to do chill however. Find him in the cinema car watching what's already playing or some dumb comedy, or even in the music car to see what tunes are available for his SCA. There's a also a chance of finding him on the upper quiet car floor, the doors closed and...he's sitting cross-legged on the floor between the couches, his eyes closed and head slightly hanging. What. Knock on the door, or leave him be?
Also, maybe he'll be checking out a random pet wandering around. Heyy there little guuuyy how friendly are you? Insert your pal [here].

"Yeah?" There's an incredulous note. "I mean, your whole world sounds like one long story. Anyone know why that happened in the first place? Or you just gotta hope it doesn't suddenly happen again?"
no subject
It wasn't like he didn't want to oblige, after all curiosity was a wonderful thing.
"The best we can figure from all indications at the moment is that it was a weapon, likely from an enemy off the planet, although considering the limited contact we've had thus far I can't rule out it being an AI, versus an alien of some sort. The broadcast we've intercepted comes from the moon's surface, at least, based on the location and tracking it fits in with the movement of the moon and our position on the planet."
He pulled out from under his collar a thin rope that at the end of it was a device that looked like a trefoil knot. "We're calling this Medusa. Don't worry, it doesn't work. Whatever energy it takes to use, it's completely out of juice."

Tidus leans in when he shows off the necklace, not actually sure what the assurance is about until a few seconds after; looking up from the peculiar interwoven design to Senku. "Eh? What, has that got something to do with whatever turned people into stone?"
Like a smaller version of whatever was apparently on the moon? What is the deal with moons in other worlds...
no subject
Senku had a vague direction but the planet was kind of big just to guess. It may not have even been in Japan.

Senku lived his life by rules like that, of course.
"Ah, actually, yes." He smiled slowly. "I've come up with something that will crack the petrification and restore people. The only barrier at the moment is resources. We were on our way to America to hopefully secure some corn to produce alcohol."

He was, in fact, telling the truth. He was a horrible liar anyway. "It took about a year, but regardless, as convenient as that might've been, we'll find a way to make it one way or another."
He wasn't afraid of an insanely long timeline.
no subject
"Well I hope it goes well for your planet! Some things take a long time to change, but it's good things are looking up for everyone."
no subject
"Yeah, we just need to gather the ingredients we need to revive everyone, and of course, travel the world to do so. It's going to take an insanely long time. Oh, and of course, go take care of the one responsible, so we'll be mounting an invasion on the moon too."
It would be fine if Tidus thought he was crazy. Everyone did.
no subject
If the guy and whoever else wanted to go on the moon, be his guest, but also that was a bit of a ramp up, wasn't it.
...not that Tidus thinks it's that crazy. Go after the people responsible--he could respect that. Did it himself, even!
no subject
"Naturally, I need to build a lot of separate components, but it's nothing I can't do with a lot of time and patience." He did say he was tenacious.
"As fun as it would be to recreate Doraemon or something, there are other pressing matters."
no subject
More than just it being a book or not, but in general, he wonders. It'd been a joke, but hey, he's curious.

Not that he could say for definite those were what the fiction stories all were, but plenty were, and that was enough.
no subject
"I bypassed those to get to the good stuff." He held up the chemistry book. "Not that there was a lot of choice in the hard sciences, but it's nice all the same."
He was planning, when Tidus was tired of talking to him and wandered off, just reading and zoning out over comforting material.
no subject
"If you knew more books, I'd say we could get more in." But Tidus does decide to pick up his legs, cross them over with his feet tucking on him, getting more into the position he was in on the floor.
"If you're interested, if you can talk to some other people about what'd be good books like that--" Tidus nods at the book Senku has, "--there's a kind of potluck going on here, helping people get what they want. An actual list would be good so people know what to buy. We can add them."
Why not? Tidus wasn't interested in hard science, but the book section wasn't just for him.
no subject
"I know a lot of books." Senku answered. "Not that much fiction, although I have a probably decent grasp of science fiction." He liked to pick it apart for its inaccuracies.
"Books cost points, and I don't really have any yet, but I wouldn't mind getting some books when I do." He wasn't going to hoard them either, knowledge was meant to be shared, that was his personal opinion.
"A lot of what I did growing up was read books like this."

He mused. "Something like Grey's Anatomy, if you like biology and want to understand how the human body works, it's great for medical purposes."
"Really depends on what you're focus is. I've read books in all of the hard science fields."
no subject
no subject
"Sure, I can do that." Senku offered agreeably. "I don't really know what appeals to massive amounts of people, especially with them being from different worlds."
do you want to wrap up this thread? also i can note down those book :)
There were plenty of personalities onboard, and sure, even from different worlds. Senku's kind of books--at least the nerdy type; Tidus might take a look at the robot cat comics...--wasn't for him, but it would be someone else. A few someones, he bets.
Sure thing :)
He let the conversation lapse naturally, and if Tidus took up his meditation, that was fine, Senku would happily lose himself in the book for awhile.
