[In which TA fails at topic titles...]
It was hot and Ren sighed to himself as he stepped out into the blazing summer air outside of Akihabara station. Curse needing a new mic, and curse actually having a show coming up where he actually needed the blasted thing. Of course, his old one, which he'd had since his days in a band with his two best friends, had broken. It was really just his luck. Smoothing down his red, pleated skirt which had been ruffled by a cool blast of air from the station's doors sliding open behind him again, he started walking. It wasn't long before the whispers started, and he grinned. Even with his usual red contacts replaced by a warm, honey brown, and his black ears being left at home, he was still being recognized by people. Whispers of, 'is that Black Cat?' and squeaks of people sure that they were correct followed him, but rather than calling more attention to himself by confirming who he was, the blond just kept walking. It wouldn't be long before the whispers would fade out. He would be marked as a look-a-like soon enough.
...still, he couldn't help throwing a few winks that had girls and guys alike swooning a little before escaping into the crowds. It was much too hot to be messing around, and it didn't help much that he'd decided to wear a black hoodie of all things, not to mention the acoustic guitar case hanging from his shoulder. Soon, he'd need to stop somewhere for a cold drink. Luckily, he'd just gotten paid at his boring, going no-where job that day, so he had a little extra money to burn.
Making his way to his favourite music store was easy, and it wasn't long before he was walking out, new mic in a bag hanging from his wrist as he decided what to do next. He didn't really feel like going home right that moment, even though it was hot. Tugging the strap of his guitar case a little, he decided that he'd maybe find a nice, quiet (and hopefully air conditioned) cafe somewhere and work on his newest songs. Song-writers were usually quite welcome in little cafes, he'd found. Especially when they added the fact that said song writer was a popular indie idol. He tended to attract crowds and gave places like that some good business... Now it was just a matter of finding one that suited him. Tugging lightly on the chain linked between his lip and ear thoughtfully, he turned and started walking, humming softly under his breath.
