(GS3) Field: Card Capital

[Golden Sage NovaRaizer]

Darren walked in behind her. The sights of the shopping district caused him to get distracted, but not enough to lose his way. When he looked forward to see all of the cards and fighters. "Oh wow... so many..." he said as he looked at the displays. He saw a particular unit, a special unit not available in normal packs. "Super Dimensional Robo, Goegal" was its name.

Someone noticed him looking at it, giving him a closer look while watching him. Its effect seemed perfect. Darren wanted this unit, but he didn't have enough money for many copies of it. "I think I found what I want," he said to Rosalia, declaring what he would be getting.

[RosaliaIzanami]

Rosalia watched Darren look around the shop, wondering what it is exactly he was looking for. The past he lost? Or a new card to take a step towards the future? She would obviously go for the later, but sometimes you need that physical memory in your hands to feel complete. Just thinking about it, she could never lose her Luquier. At Darren's declaration, the redhead walked over and looked at the card, tilting her head. "Super Dimensional Robo.. Goegal? Your robots have weird names..." she mused, giggling softly.

[Golden Sage NovaRaizer]

Darren couldn't help but laugh at her comment, a small chuckle that went with her giggle. He turned and said, "Its like my Enigman unit but... the next level. Enigmans were the deck I learned Vanguard with, but my Avatar is something different. I've tried to make them work together but it isn't working. But this feels like it would put both together into one."

He counted his money, enough for two copies of the unit. Buying singles over buying packs, it was odd but it was also all he needed. He placed the money on the counter and moved into his backpack. He took out a second deck box which was black and red as opposed to his black and white one that had the deck he used against Rosalia before. "With a bit of editing... maybe I'll have something that can work."

[RosaliaIzanami]

"Mhm~ If something doesn't work, try and try again. Different combinations make different flavors in cooking, even if using the same ingredients," Rosalia grinned, then thought at the mention of food. Maybe she could head home early to cook something for dinner instead of going out to eat... or bake. She still swore that she would bring cookies at some point, so with the camping trip coming up, maybe she could bring them as a treat for the Cardfight Club. That's a lot of cookies though... Oh well. Watching Darren again as he messed with his deck, the redhead pointed at the new deck box. "Is that a completely different deck? What's that one like?"

[Golden Sage NovaRaizer]

Darren turned to her from her metaphor. He blinked once and said, "So you like to cook? Remind me to call you if I run out of grocery money." He was half joking, but at the same time he was practically living alone with his schedule conflicting so much with his aunt, so he hadn't had a home cooked meal since he arrived in this town.

When she asked about the deck, he nodded lightly, "Yeah," he said to her lightly. "I've only used it once and it is stronger... but something about it felt like I shouldn't be using it. I figured I wasn't ready to use it... but now I know that without it I can't really do much against fighters like you. Since there seem to be a lot around here, I can't really afford to hold back, now can I?"

[RosaliaIzanami]

Rosalia scratched her cheek at the joke, not exactly sure how to answer. Other than her parents, and unless it was a desert item, the only other person she cooked for was Seifer. At least he answered her question about the deck, the female watching him mess with his cards curiously. "So.. Well, I'm still sorta learning. I've only played for about a year, compared to everyone else I know who's played for twelve times longer than I have... B-but I'm glad you think I'm good at fighting~ I've been trying harder lately to catch up with everyone in the club... They've been through a lot more than anyone else, and I want to feel like I can compete on the same level as them..."

[Golden Sage NovaRaizer]

Darren was surprised at her response. He looked down at his units, then back to her before he said, "I guess we've got that in common. You're the same as me, trying to keep up with everyone else. That means we can help one another out, doesn't it?" He smiled as he put the finishing touches onto his deck, setting it down as he felt like he had something that would work for him. "That's the last unit... This should be a good deck for me now..."

[RosaliaIzanami]

"That's great~ One step closer to being the best you can be~" Rosalia said happily, but when she was about to ask about what his "new deck" was actually like, her phone started ringing. Being on full volume, the redhead jumped before fumbling with her bag, trying to get the techno-violin mixed tune to stop playing. Finally in silence, she was able to see it was a text... from none other than Seifer. "Oh!... Meet up with him at the place we ate last night... The seafood place~ Sorry Darren, I gotta go. See you in the club sometime, and don't forget about the camping trip!" With a wave, the female was off running.


Darren   AF +4

[Cece Lockhart]

They couldn't hear Noel from the park when Darren and Rosalia left so she followed them and finally caught up. She wanted to tag along with what they were doing but it appears she arrived too late. "Darn, I guess I made it too late to catch up with you guys on what you were doing?"

Her phone then vibrated from another reply from her brother.
"Oh wow so it was recent, lol. At least I was able to tell something was going on, lol. But hmmm, you had something similar too huh? Strange, mine feels more like an internal struggle of some sort. You could ask if you want to see if it's anything with meaning because I mean, it's just odd having the same dream over and over you know?"

[Cipher Izanagi]

'Sometimes that happens. I'll ask around. In any case if I go quiet, sorry. Gonna hang out with Rose now. Haven't been able to really since we got together. Talk to you soon. Should come over some time. There's a key under the plants outside.'

[Golden Sage NovaRaizer]

Darren wondered who she got the text from. Was it the roommate she mentioned before? Maybe he would get to meet her sometime. He looked at his deck, placing it in the white and black deckbox as it was the one he used the most. All of the extras went in the black and red deck box so he wouldn't make a mess. He waved Rosalia off even though it was belated before he stood up, wondering how he should test his deck, or if he could today at all.

That was when Noel appeared. He gave a small grin and said, "Yes and no. Actually, I was working on a new deck. I was thinking of a way to test it out."

Rosalia  AF+4

[Cece Lockhart]

Noel had walked in when Rosalia left, basically confirming Seifer's message of spending some time with her. He only saw Darren there with two deck boxes on the table, one of them was probably his deck.

"Oh cool, new decks are always fun to test out. Unfortunately it seems the store is closing for the night and we have school tomorrow meaning we need to do our homework sometime tonight. There is some time left before we have to leave so what did you end up getting?"

She then got her phone and did a goodbye reply to Seifer
"Yeah, please if you can find out let me know asap. I swear these cards are real, lol. And ok cool, I'm at Card Capital and saw Rose leaving so she should head over to you sometime soon. Well then, don't mind if I do. Don't be surprised if your house starts looking different or have extra stuff, lol. Kusanagi's need to live in style, xP"

[Golden Sage NovaRaizer]

Suddenly, Darren felt lucky that he got to the shop when he did. Any later and he might have had to wait a day before making his deck. Upon hearing her question, Darren sighed and said, "You have a point about the homework... Even though I wish you didn't. But my deck is something similar to what I had at the Train Station that day. Though I have made a few changes that fit me better. Fighting Rose today made me realize I can't push that kind of strength aside, but some of the units didn't suit me well."

[Cece Lockhart]

"Huh, kinda like me. My current deck wasn't giving me what I wanted so I passed by here after I left the Cardfight Club and found some new Jewel Knights for my deck. I managed to revive my Jewel Knights even if it's just a small percentage of what they once were. I even got a Salome from a friend that was here also when I came in. We could probably have a test fight tomorrow at the club room if you want so we can test decks. Anyway, I gotta go back to my hotel room. You should plan to get home too and do your homework. Later!" With that, Noel left eager for the next day to begin and use her Jewel Knights once more.

Darren +1
Seifer +2

[Golden Sage NovaRaizer]

Darren smiled lightly and gave a nod, seeing that everyone else was leaving the shop as well. He gave a light sigh, looking at his deck as he hoped that this would be the deck for him. He wanted his Avatar unit to shine so hopefully this was the start of what he needed. He decided to go as well, heading back to his hotel room for one of the last few nights before the fumigating of his current home was finished.
