[CR-Specific] A Day Out with the Town Bicycle
Who: Dmitri "North Dakota" Katina & his merry band of love interests
What: Dates!
When: Throughout late April and early May
Where: Various
Warning(s): Discussion potentially may turn to the circumstances of his death in April, or threads may turn NSFW. Will be marked appropriately, so check individual threads!
-A Rainy Day with Fever-
North's taking care of his usual farm duties on a rather gloomy day, when the thought bubbles up in his mind. A discussion he'd had with Fever at the Swift Social, not all that long ago, but after everything the two of them have gone through lately it feels a bit like a lifetime. It's not a major chore day, just the usual stuff, and he's got a pot of his most recent attempt at "best soup of all time" simmering on the stove while he feeds his cows. Wouldn't it just be serendipitous?
And just as he's walked all the way out to the far end of his vegetable fields to check on the cucumber he's been trying to grow for a certain festival, it starts. Slow at first, then harder, until North is drenched by the time he's halfway back to the ranch house.
"Pearl!" he shouts to the dappled grey mare that serves as his primary mode of transportation. "Get out of the damn rain!"
Pearl, who had been staring pensively into the middle distance, looks at him with the weariness and defeat of a middle aged woman who just picked up smoking again after having quit for a decade after the divorce with her ex husband finally ended. She does not move.
"Ah, fuck it, do whatever you want," North grumbles, reaching for his sending stone. "Hey, Fever, you'll never guess what just started--- we still on for today?"
-A Horseback Ride with Ragatha-
And of course, if you don't like the weather, wait.
After several days of rain soak the ground to the point that riding becomes difficult, all it takes is a day of warm sun and steady breeze to dry things right back up, and North has gotten antsy. After how long he spent aboard the Mother of Invention, it's easy to get a little twitchy in that old, familiar way when cooped up, and it's starting to give North hives. Besides, Pearl could use the exercise.
And so he saddles up, fancying a ride on the trails through Lockwood Forest, packing a nice lunch for two--- after all, things like this are better with company, and he can think of just the doll.
Picnic supplies carefully loaded into saddlebags, he and Pearl trot over to the neighboring plot of farm land. Catching her outside already, he pulls up with a smoulder on his face. "Permission to catcall you respectfully, ma'am?"
-Rooftop Stargazing with Jax-
After having a dedicated day for Fever and Ragatha, North finds himself in dire need of some rabbit time. Both out of fairness and wanting to spread his time evenly, of course, but also out of a desire for that specific brand of tomfoolery that he can only really get with Jax.
He goes a little more out of his way to prepare, dropping into town to pick up a few things special. Some situations require a more personal touch, and "you just had a huge blow-up with my sister and I want to reassure you that I still like you very much" is certainly one of them.
Preparations are made, and the sun is setting. A flat part of North's roof, accessible by the hallway window, is laid out with blankets and a couple of pillows that aren't important enough to worry about rolling off the roof into the dirt below. Sending stone is produced, and a call is made. "Ooooh you wanna come to my house so bad right now and hang out with meeeeee."
-Impromptu Dalliances-
Wildcard me here! I can think of a few other people North would be interested in seeing (Edgar, SQQ, Violet) but that I didn't have any particular plans with, so feel free to DM me or just jump me with something, I don't mind!
