Lera and Jamie: Walk and Talk

[firecracker_hopping]

Who: Lera and Jamie
When: Monday evening
Where: A park in Fall City
Before/After: N/A
Warnings: Probably nothing?

Lera still had a headache after work.

Her company had a lot of requests pouring in after the rest of Bastan appeared in the city. There was a need to update every map they had made of the affected region, especially with changes in elevation and the like. As exciting as top soils were, top soils could get old after a ten hour day and the promise of another tomorrow. She knew it would be a long day; they had to report to work early to go near the castle and take more measurements.

She wanted to clear her head after work, which a walk was good for. It was warm, too, which she liked; it was not that common in Fall City. It meant she could wear a T-shirt and skirt and not be shivering.

She walked through the park, hands shoved in her pockets, purse over a shoulder, and sighed. It still ached back behind her eyes, even if getting outside (without measuring equipment) was nice.

Jamie didn't like it when it was warm. He hadn't liked it in Arizona, which was a practical desert, and he didn't like it here. It meant his hoodie was a bit hot. He was, however, used to it. At the moment, he was decked out in his hoodie, baggy jeans, gloves, boots, and basically everything that would spell "uncomfortably warm".

He'd told Siegmund he was going out for groceries - which was true - but what he hadn't said was that he was interested in getting a breath of fresh air, before he did. The park was relaxing, even though the heat was somewhat uncomfortable.

Jamie was, at the moment, talking a small walk himself. He'd been trying to rebel a bit, lately - when he was in school most of the athletics he tried bellyflopped due to risk of overexposure. But, at the moment? Jamie was fine. He wasn't entirely comfortable, walking on the leg that he was well aware should be broken, but he was forcing himself to go along with his schedule. However, his gait was currently definitely favoring his other leg. Sure, his leg was healed. But it was strange to walk on it as though nothing was wrong. (This was also why he was stopping on park benches a bit more regularly then he'd have done, normally.)

Lera might see him anywhere, really - he was an interesting sight to see. Sitting, walking, or just simply bumping into her via the powers of not paying enough attention.
