these boots were made for running [open]

Characters: Sora and YOU.
Format: Any
This log is: open
Location: The road around Rakuen's inner town. Other places as she gets lost.
Summary: Having been asleep for quite a while, and thus having missed a lot, Sora attempts to get back to her knightly training regime after the assembly. In the meantime, she thinks. Dangerous, I know.
Warnings: None

Running was easy. Even if she couldn't remember where to go, or what to do, she could still just follow the road around the outside of the town, past the gates of the schools, until she was too tired to keep running. Movement was her only talent, after all. It helped to subdue her frustrations at always being asleep or injured when her friends needed her - when everyone needed someone to help them. This place was even more complicated than the Utopia Academy, and without someone like Tsuki or Karin to guide her, Sora had absolutely no idea which path to take to help everyone. If she fought the system with all of her strength, wouldn't it hurt the headmistress and the others? Wouldn't they be forced to punish those around her, in retaliation? No, she didn't want to take that road. It would only lead to pain and bitterness.

But that didn't leave many options. Sora wasn't exactly imaginative at the best of times. She needed something to do rather than something to think about. She couldn't even remember anything that would be useful to everyone! And so she ran. If she trained, if she learned how to fight properly, she could at least fulfill the role of a simple knight.

She rounded a corner, and, seeing someone on the path ahead of her, stopped beneath one of the groomed trees next to the road to catch her breath. That was another thing she could do, wasn't it? She could make sure she knew everyone in the city, so when they needed help, she could give it. No problem at all. She wiped sweat from her forehead, and waved to the approaching person.

"Good morning!"

"Morning," Becca offered quietly. She was a quiet and sullen girl, unless you caught her around Shion. She'd been defeated with Sora's weapon once, though Sora hadn't actually been there, so Becca didn't connect the dots about who she was seeing. "What school are you from?" she asked curiously, trying to make conversation even if she was terrifically bad at it.

"Haha! Morning kiddo!" He called back in enthusiasm, offering the girl a wide, bright smile in return for the greeting as well. "How are ya doin'?"

[mutesician]

[Louis is actually running in the opposite direction from Sora, trying to take flight. He is failing miserably each time, and doesn't notice her greeting at first. Even if he did, he couldn't respond.]

Golbez had just gone out for a walk, with no particular destination in mind. It was Sunday, so he didn't have anywhere to really be. When he caught sight of Sora crossing his path, he waved back slightly.

"Ah. Good afternoon, Sora."

John smiled up at the girl from where he was sitting in the bench. She looked like a sweet young lady. "Good morning, my lady."

[Jake was out wandering around as he has taken up doing. There was still a lot to see in the city. When he was suddenly greeted he grinned. People could sure be friendly.]

Salutations, madame!
