Who: Tidus and OPEN
When: End of October
Where: Myste Aura, Nakagawa, Curti Center, and various
What: Spooky mysteries, stone-throwing, and disciplinary studies. Open prompts below, closed in comments.
Warnings/Notes: Mentions of death/ghosts/existential crises, will update if needed
a. a stone's throw away
It's been a difficult month for Tidus' confidence. He's screwed up mission after mission, and it's clear that what he's been doing isn't enough to save this world. The problem is that he isn't sure what to do about that, so he resorts to the familiar at first. If anyone should happen to be in the vicinity of Myste Aura, they won't find him tearing up the blitzball stadium as usual. Instead, he's jogging on a very cool and windy morning, rather underdressed for the weather. And what's with all the fog lately
He shivers, but grits his teeth and presses onward. Maybe if he runs fast enough, he can leave his worries behind. In fact, he's so focused on his task that he kicks up a storm of sand on an unsuspecting person before he finally skids to a halt.
"Whoops---uh, hey, you okay there?"
b. back to basics
His next stop on his quest for self-discovery takes him to the Swordmaster guild in Nakagawa. He'd initially taken up the job because it was familiar, but this month's events have shown him that he has much more to learn if he wants to be truly balanced. He can be found inside the guild going through practice exercises again and again, or once he steps outside, balancing on a nearby fence post. He's actually succeeding at shutting out all the mental distractions for now, looking like the model of a disciplined warrior.
Except it's still Tidus, so he soon starts hopping from post to post.
c. with so much to learn
Finally, he returns to the Curti Center where this whole foray into the unknown began. When he arrived, he'd been full of wonder, questions, and renewed hope. He was now worn down with experience, down on his luck, and a little afraid of what was to come next...but he couldn't let that stop him. So he blew right past all the decorations for the upcoming holiday, retreating into what was very much not his natural habitat: the library. He soon hit the books, looking very out of place behind a teetering pile of mundane documents he'd collected at random.
Was this what it took to be serious?

[If the world survives long enough to make it there, that is. He has to help make that happen. He waits to see that she's okay, then steps back.]
Anything about old legends. I looked at that kids' book that was scanned for us, but there's gotta be more strange stories.
