Heading to Town

[lookingforhead]

Who: Celty and YOU! Newcomers welcome
When: Throughout January
Where: Various places around the Far Shore, Tokyo, Anywhere that works
What: Celty running deliveries for her side business, for temple business, and otherwise just riding around
Warnings: None



Deliveries
Celty's done her best to promote her business, though some of it did get drowned out other things going on.v In any case, even with the holiday season winding down there's still a need for couriers. She's also done her best to promote her work in the land of the living and a couple people manage to remember her ad long enough to hire her, even if they don't remember anything about the driver herself. It works well enough for her and it's a way to make some money on the side. She's also doing a fine service in helping to gather things from the near shore that people simply need or want on the far shore.

Perhaps you're sending her out on a job or she's just finishing one for you? Or maybe you run into her in Tokyo or elsewhere while she's out on business.

Temple Business
Celty of course isn't so selfish to focus on her side gig to neglect helping her god. Now and then she's able to help with a few things that fall into the relative domain of Thoth. Bookstores, schools and libraries find deliveries from Ibis Publishing mixed in with their orders...but all the paperwork seems to be in order and the books are of surprisingly high quality.

Back at Patchouli's temple, Celty can be spotted unloading boxes of books she's picked up from the land of the living, some to add to her god's personal library or simply borrowed from other libraries. She can also be seen taking care of the birds, baboons and cats lounging around the temple grounds basking in the general Egyptian ambiance.

Hit The Road
Even if she doesn't have work to do it's in Celty's nature to take to the roads. If anything her delivery work is more of an excuse to drive around long distance and top speed. She takes care not to put anyone in danger and she does follow most traffic laws in the land of the living, but given the chance she just pours on the speed. She can also be seen on the roads in the Far Shore, and for those who only saw her up to this when she first arrived, or those who just arrived recently, her bike is doing a much better job of mixing with the local ambiance.

Namely, it's just about silent. There's no roar of an engine, no billowing of smoke, no smell of burning gasoline or rubber in the air. Her black bike runs smooth, but whenever she lets it go for a strong run or takes a particularly tight turn the sound of a ghastly horselike wail fills the air. She'll pull to a stop if someone flags her down, but anyone who decides to ride up alongside her may be taken as a challenge to race.

Relived at the lack of judgment, Ginia hops onto the back of the motorcycle-horse. In addition to visiting the ocean, it's nice riding a motorcycle. Maybe it's something she should get for herself one day. Indulgent, but it makes for an exciting way to get around the Near Shore.

The location isn't too far away with some open street parking marked out for motorcycles too. The boardwalk is decorated with tiny sparkling lights and Ginia pauses to take pictures.

It's really pretty with everything decorated like this, isn't it.

It certainly is a nice thing to have, though Celty does have the perk of having a mount that she doesn't need to pay to feed, either in food or gasoline. She does like doing her personal work for her personal wallet though, just for those indulgent purchases of her own. And to make sure her cat is properly pampered. Though being that she lives in an Egyptian temple, the feline is doing quite well for itself as is.

'It is. Is there some sort of event going on?

[unlucky7]

Ginia looks around for any signs or banners that might point toward something specific. Christmas is long past, but a few places still have winter illuminations up. It's a nice way to liven up the evening.

Not sure.
I think it's left over from all the lights for Christmas?
Maybe they stay up through January too.

Ginia pauses as a thought strikes her.

Want to take a picture together?

[It's really nice though. Even if it's past the season. Actually, sometimes it's a little better that way. The lights and warmth leading up to Christmas are a big help in getting into the depths of winter. It's nice to have some left over to help on the way back out.]

Sure. That sounds fun.
