I need a helping hand

[damnnearperfect]

Date & Time: The last week. Just about anytime.
Location: Outside Unit 107. Sup Shepard.
Characters: Miranda and you! (So very open)
Summary: Someone needs some hobbies. And friends. Until then, one ex-Cerberus Cheerleader is just going to be walking by Shepard's apartment. Often.
Warnings: None?

[Like just about every other day, Miranda is stalking walking past Shepard's room for the 25902434th time that day. She can be seen tinkering with her omni-tool, which she's rigged up to sync with her netbook.

Without the threat of the Reapers hanging overhead, she feels at a loss of what to do. The last few years of her life have revolved around Shepard. In the new setting, she wasn't certain of her purpose anymore. She was restless and directionless and hesitant to offer support to the Initiative.

So really, it left her with not a whole lot to do. When she wasn't in her room sleeping, she was training. When she wasn't training, she was working on her omni-tool. Now that she had finished the sync, she had more time on her hands than she knew what to do with. Thus, the pacing.]

[She glances up from her omni-tool to see her small roommate. They hadn't interacted much, which was fine by her. She spent most of her time elsewhere. Still, he is a child and she's hesitant to just brush him off.]

Ico, nice seeing you out. I was starting to think we'd never cross paths outside of our apartment. What have you been up to? Me? I've just been getting some fresh air.

[He lifted his nose and smelled the air. The city air was nowhere near as fresh as the one that ran through his home village, but he said nothing about it.]

I needed some money so I cleaned a few stores. I also looked around this city. It’s the biggest one I’ve ever seen. Did you see that clock tower? I bet you can see a lot from up there.

[He looked in the direction of Big Ben. His Mark and sword made him look so small, but his body was strong.]

I think I’ll climb it someday soon. Then I’ll see everything.

[damnnearperfect]

The biggest you've seen? Where exactly are you from?

[She looks over at the tower. Her years in the air have given her little room to be impressed by ordinary buildings. Although her curiosity of Earth's relics was piqued.]

Be careful, okay? We wouldn't want you having another unfortunate accident. How close are you to paying for your earlier damages?

[hornedomen]

I’m close, I need about fifty Marques.

[He smiled confidently.] Don’t worry about me; I was just surprised that time. I’m from Toksa, it’s a small village but there are many trees there. I used to climb them all the time. It is bigger than the trees but I looked at it before, there’s plenty to grab onto so it won’t be difficult at all.

[As a show of his skill, he leapt onto the rail and balanced on it. It was easy for him and he even walked on it.]

[damnnearperfect]

Congratulations, I'm sure you'll get it in no time.

[Color her impressed. She likes to see a hard working youngster. She smiles fondly at him.]

You're certainly adventurous. I bet you got into all sorts of trouble back home.

[hornedomen]

[He did not say anything about it but he chuckled.]

What about you, where are you from? Does it have big towers like this one?
