Check Back

Shiruba pokes her head into the shop. "Hello? Gwen? It's Shiruba!" She holds up the Crescent Burger food sack she has thanks to Arashi catching her when they were checking on Kaydon. "I've got food! And news!" The former seems to be the best way to get one to pay attention long enough for the later to be told.

There's no answer there's no one at the counter oddly at the moment, Where did Gwen go? She might be upstairs, there' some sounds of someone working with cloth up there. There's no reply something clearly is going on. Gwen forgot to even reply to any messages today too...

Shiruba sighs... Though it's about what she expected. Though she kind of expect her mom to be watching the shop while Gwen's occupied. Maybe they went out to hunt more materials for her.

Fortunately she knows where the passage upstairs to the loft that serves as living quarters is. "GWEN!" It's not a howl but she can definately get her voice up there when she wants to. "I swear, if I have to physically drag you away to make you eat so help me I have a snare arrow and I will use it!"

Gwen has had people snap her out of her mood from time to time such as Uta or her family but as Shiruba head up stair she'd find Gwen thankfully not stinking but clearly she's been working on thisd massive tapisty for some time and it's very the sort of thing you expect to see in an old casle or in a museam. However if Shiruba takes notice she would spot the party she was with on the day of the apoch in one part of the partially finished work.

"huh what... I just sat down to work on it for a little...what time is it?"

Shiruba gives Gwen a somewhat flat expression as she walks over. "You probably don't want to know." If it wasn't for dealing with this 'mood' from Kaydon going into his, she'd be more worried. But it seems to be a matter of some kind of hyper-focus. That kind of makes her glad she's not a crafter. She waggles the Crescent Burger sack. "Doesn't matter, I've got food~. And news."

Gwen pauses for a moment "Look I cleaned this morning." She pauises for a moment. "Kaydon, Att, Kaleido and now me?" She's having a mment she then pauses for a moment. "Well give me both then come sit down we can catch up I guess I can take a break."

Shiruba squints a little at there being more names on that list than she was aware of. "You people make me glad I'm not a crafting possession." Ponytail wags as she shakes her head. Then grabs Gwen's arm and gives her a light tug to move over. "Come on, I want you to eat, but I don't want you to drip anything on all your hard work, either." Also a convenient excuse to get her away from the workbench for a little bit. Once there's no threat to the tapestry she hands Gwen the bag.

She did notice some of the similar looking figures in the design, but right now she doesn't want to point it out or Gwen will get all distracted again.

Gwen says "What it's not that bad really." She's pulled to get away from her work station. She doesn't fight 3ith that logic either. "Does this stuff have taste?" She manages to asks s she moves to sit down elsewhere. She looks to her friend for a moment. "Also what's the news?"

"It's from Crescent Burger, Gwen, that's a silly question to ask." Shiruba would be worried about the lack of clarity towards anything other than the project if she hadn't already seen it in others. "I swear, I should be enjoying that you're not trying to shove me into random cute outfits right now, but I'm too worried about making sure you don't forget to do other important things. Like -eat-."

"As for the news..." She takes a deep breath for the sake of composure. Even though she's not nearly as anxious over it talking to her best friend and surrogate older sister. "I got promoted! They made me one of the guild leaders for the Silver Sword."

Gwen perks up at this. "Oh that sounds good. Did you get the desert outfit yet?" She asks recall the one she gave Uta and has one for herself. She will take a moment to think and then make a go for the food. She unwraps the burger and will start to devour it while listening. "MMUHSM MUG!!!" She swallows the food. She will brigthen up a bit at this. "That's wonderful!"

Shiruba rolls her eyes a little. "Yes Gwen, you gave me the desert outfit." After a moment she admits "It was actually useful for the trek from the port to Breg Epona for the meeting." Though she changed into her usual outfit once she was in the city. It's just a little too rowdy with the tourny reaching it's end for her to wander around in alternate attire. Then her eyes widen at Gwen. "Good grief, don't choke yourself in excitement!"

Gwen says "Okay I was just making sure and I'm glad that helped!" She goes back to eating and is silent for a moment after she finishes the first burger. "SO anything else of not going on that you might find interesting?"

Shiruba shakes her head a bit. "Really the only difference is I have to be more organized in doing things." That counts as different? She usually was the organized one, despite her efforts to keep up the wilderness child appearance.

Gwen says "Don't let yourself end up an Office Lady here." Gwen notes as she goes for some fries and ponders. "Then again I wonder about the bosses and the waves. Also that lady Glass she had lander and Adventure Icons..."

Shiruba pffffs. "Oh please. You know darn well I'm too happy on the move to sit behind a desk." With her bit of exciting news out of the way she sits down, letting Gwen eat. "Yeah... and so far nothing has been seen of her otherwise. How does she stay hidden like that?"

Gwen says "Good I'd hate to end up an office lady /again/ myself. Yeah I wonder what's going on there and I got to wonder about the Landers. At this point it's like that whole Philiptical zombie bit...I rather be safe than sorry."

"This world isn't a static program anymore. It's changing, and we're going to have to keep adapting too if we want to make our place in it." Shiruba shakes her head again. "No desks, no offices. The wilderness is my office. I just have to consider my than just myself now. Other people are going to be looking to me for help and guidance."

Gwen says "Digital or meat? A mind's a mind right?" She grins a little bit at this. "Ha a good way to put it. " She grins evne more and then ponders for a second. "Oh dear you might break at that."

Shiruba huffs softly. "If they didn't think I could handle it they wouldn't of picked me," she retorts. Then gives Gwen that scrutinizing look. ".. What are you plotting now?"

Gwen grins. "For when I'm done my main project I have an idea." God only knows what she's up to now and she will have this idea cooking in the back of her mind for weeks...

Shiruba lets out a sigh. "I suppose I should be glad you're not completely off your rocker," she teases. She hops up from her seat. "Buuuut that's also probably a good sign I should go before you decide to not wait!"

Gwen looks to Shiruba "Look it's just like when I play an X4 I forgot all time. Oh don't worry that will be awesome first the main project. I have to get it done or I won't be able to get it out of my head..."

"Yeah, I know. I'm just teasing a bit. Get'em in while I can." The wolfgirl starts to head back to the other room. "And then use your couch for the night before I take off again, so I'll let you get back to work. Just remember to sleep at some point!"

Gwen looks to her frien one last time. "Oh then maybe we cna play cards ot something have a full on sleepover." She laughs at least Gwen's in good spirits. "Also be glad I shot down Morri's idea for an outfit for you..."
