[Open] + Catchall
who: Yuuri and anyone!
what: Training and exploring the city
when: Early May
where: All around the city
warnings: None so far
A. Perimeter Guard Barracks
[Anyone training in the late morning will notice an unfamiliar face in the area. Though Yuuri does his best to keep out of everyone's way, he doesn't realize he's probably drawing attention to himself just by being there and not going with the flow of things. He's not holding a weapon, for one, nor does he seem inclined to find one to practice with. Instead of approaching anyone, he opts to study people's forms as they practice instead. Feel that prickling sensation at the back of your neck? If you turn around, you'll probably find Yuuri standing a little ways off, watching you intently.
Once he realizes you're actually looking back, his eyes will widen and he'll stammer out an apology.]
I-I'm so sorry! I'm not bothering you, am I?
B. Community Center, Ice Skating Rink
[As always, the ice is a familiar haven to him, a place where he can skate some of his anxious thoughts away. After weeks in the city, Yuuri's managed to figure out the center's schedule and find a perfect time to practice. It's just a break between the classes, and while the rink is still open to the public, he's found that it's usually not very crowded at this time of the day.
Yuuri glides across, alternating between skating some compulsory figures and practicing a jump or two. While all this is normal for him, what isn't normal is the thing that comes rushing out toward him suddenly, making him squeak in surprise, flail his arms, and then go crashing onto the ice. He rubs at his hip with a groan.]
You really have to stop doing that... [Who is he talking to? There's no one there, but if you squint hard enough, you might catch a metallic glint out of the corner of your eye, accompanied by a hollow sounding snicker.]
C. Library
[Ever since picking up his first aid lessons with Dr. McCoy again, Yuuri's tried to stop by the library's medical section to brush up on his knowledge. He vaguely remembers a few things from the mandatory biology courses he'd taken in university, but that's nowhere near what he needs to know if he isn't going to be a burden on the doctor.
Even with his determination to learn, Yuuri finds himself drifting off during one such library run. At first, it's quiet for a while, Yuuri simply dozing at the table. Then, it all happens in a chain. The book he's reading slips out of his hand, falling to the floor with a loud thump. Yuuri jerks awake, startled by the noise, and his elbow just happens to catch the pile of books next to him. Though he tries his best to catch them, the books all go tumbling down to the ground, one loud noise after another, until most of the people around the tables are staring at him.
Turning a brilliant red, Yuuri sinks down in his chair a little before deciding the best way to escape is to slip onto the floor and start picking up the books he's knocked over. Hopefully nobody was reading those!]

Gladio
This time, when he heads to the barracks, he scans the area until he spots a familiar figure. Yuuri heads over to him, tingling with nervousness.]
Gladio? [He calls out, once he's close enough, hoping he isn't disturbing him.]
no subject
Calling his name gets his attention. Gladio peers over his shoulder and down to Yuuri, then turns to face him, hands on hips. ]
Hey, you're here.
[ A half-gloved hand is offered. ]
Yuuri, right?
no subject
Eichi's mentioned you a few times--it sounds like you're keeping him busy.
no subject
Hey. [ Thankfully the handshake is brief, as Gladio requires that hand to scrub at the back of his neck. He hopes he didn't also hear about his hospitalization. ]
...Did he? Hah, we're neighbors so it's only natural we hang out. How do you know him?
no subject
We're friends. [Yuuri pauses. Now that's a loaded question, even if Gladio doesn't realize it.] Ah, did Eichi ever mention some place called Eluvio to you?
no subject
Is that the name of one of the clubs he performs at?
no subject
No, it's--it's the place we were at before this city's portal pulled us here. [He pauses.] This isn't the first time we've run into a portal.
no subject
...You warm up yet? You can tell me all about this place while we get ready.
[ Gladio will take the lead, guiding him away from the barracks towards a practice area. ]
Another alternate universe, huh? Did they make you guys go through quarantine too?
no subject
They did a health check up before we were allowed to join everyone else, but no... no quarantine. [Yuuri frowns slightly, even as he walks alongside him.] It was a space ship that we ended up on, though. Not a city like this one.
