Would anyone would like to go on a date?

Only requirement would be that you are female.

It's almost Christmas. That alone really gives me a craving for pheasant and some nice cranberry sauce. I wonder what we should do about that this year? Last Christmas we spent it in Italy and this year we're on the X so... I guess we can manage getting our hands on it somehow.

Maybe get some more Zs before then though. It's too dark out to do anything right now.

That was really fun. I haven't done anything like that for a long time. Five years at least but now we're back. The heater's all set up for the winter weather when it comes and we've even returned with proper dress. I'm not sure how well the scarf will stay on Kir but this hat kind of reminds me of our travels to Russia. It was nice seeing Picon again. She seems well and she was really happy to see us again. The hot chocolate was a nice treat.

We all got back in one piece in anycase.

The thought of stealing lives seems like so much more trouble then it's worth. Stealing people is far more simpler, it's easier and they tend to come willingly if you do it right.

Is the world really that reliant on violence to solve matters? Is crime really the reliant on violence? Come to think of it, I don't think I've come across and irrational person yet.

Well, that cop that commented on flowers automatically being a symbol of homosexually seemed rather irrational. Not to mention it's rather insulting to all the men and women working in that industry. Each flower carries and bears a symbollic meaning. I thought it was kind of sweet, trying to cover a city in flowers. Every man, woman and child could recieve something with good intentions that way. A magical kind of moment.

There was a few other people who seemed to share that same mind set. Natsu, I believe it was.
Come run away with us. It'll be for ten days. Apparently the people in this city don't experience a lot of freedom.

Well, not the same kind that I'm used to. Ryusuke, you can come along too.

Everything is running smoothly. Who knew playing an instrument would be so easy? I even made some money from busking today. It's easier when Kir keeps quiet in the city. He doesn't draw as much attention that way.

Tomorrow, you'll see it coming. It'll come from the sky. Thousands and thousands of them. Expect a flying saucer, it will be out of this world.

I've never had that happen before. Aren't these kind of things supposed to be exciting and come to a climatic end? That must not be what I was supposed to do here then. It's so much slower this way but last night in the cafe was bit more exciting. Тревожит то, что человек там хотел препарировать мою руку. Он не мог пройти через этот слой так или иначе. We were running low on orange juice so today we went and picked up a bit more. Popsicles and some other food too. There isn't much for storage in this place. I think I might need to find a fridge.

Un chien rapiécé. Maintenant, c'est quelque chose digne d'être volée. Séparation des partenaires n'est jamais chose que je pouvais bien faire. Sauf que j'ai gagné les deux.

Das macht die Sache erledigt. Heute Abend werden wir trinken!

If it's a Cross, then there should be a Cross running through it, or it should be in the shape of a cross when you view it from the sky. All the buildings could be crosses. Better yet, paint over the city. Buildings, streets, yards. A painted cross over the city of Cross. That would surely put it on the map.

'X marks the spot.'

This is the only place that fits that description just from it's name. I wonder what it is she wanted me to do here...

All that matters right now is that I'm here so time to make the most of it. I expect we'll discover whatever we were meant to do here soon enough. For now, we'll make a home in one of the abandonned buildings, fix it up, put a lock on the door and build some furniture. That shouldn't be so hard. A few blankets around the place would give it more of a Indian feel. Kir's been sleeping heavily for awhile now, so a good rest will be the first thing on our list.

CHARACTER WRITTEN PORTION
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF PERSONALITY: Jing is an optimist to the core. It's very rare that he ever gets low about anything, unless it's an act or the situation really is just that serious. But even then given a moment or two, he'll burst right back to that smiling, joking, well spoken, well mannered self. Even for a bandit, Jing is well aware of how to twist a few arms when it comes to theiving what he's looking for. Somehow, due to this nature of his, he collects many girls. Not literally of course. There would be too many to carry if he had the room to do so. He's not a direct charmer by any means but dispite this, there are still a large handful of girls who have fallen for Jing, yet he, never says a word about whether he is currently involved with anyone or not. Most often, he might say something about his mother being the number one woman in his life. Despite everything, he's likely to be a mama's boy forever.
Now, because Jing IS the King of Bandits, it's a title he'll throw around but it does completely belong to him. He emits every ounce of that title as he is quick, witty and so very insightful. He knows things about people that they don't even know about themselves most of the time and naturally, Jing is well acquainted with himself too. He's not afraid to say "I am awesome" because he is but he won't be cocky about it because that would be rude. Well, sometimes he's a bit cocky... He has no shame in acting out. He has no shame in being himself. As a common act of showing how much faith he has in himself Jing will leave notes about what he's to steal next, so if something along the lines of "I will cover the world with silver roses - King of Bandits" were to show up pinned to the front door, well, he'll find a way to do just that. In an inventive manner too.
Speaking of inventive, Jing is very smart and quite able to think on his feet. Have a dillema? Jing will solve it just like that. Don't like it? Too bad for you. You're lucky he even spared the time, really. The King of Bandits has a knack for just about everything and his super smarts only make the young man all the more impressive.
As an a side warning: It's sometimes hard to tell when the truth is being told by this one. Generally, his tales will be told to be true, but if for some reason he's bending around the bush, it's all a part of his plan. Don't be surprised if he plays up a situation to enrage so-and-so or laugh with what's-their-face. It sometimes makes stealing whatever easier.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF APPEARANCE: LOOKS EXACTLY THE SAME AS HE DOES IN THE MANGA. His eyes are hazel too, as an fyi. Under his coat on his right arm he has a gadget that dispenses his blade and also makes his arm usable. (more about that below) Also, he will almost always have an albatross with him. The albatross's name is Kir, it can talk rather loudly, but it will squack too. The bird's feathers are basically black and white. Black eyes, bushy black feathers over the top of his eyes, nearly black beak, white body, and has a red hankerchief tied around his neck.
BRIEF IN-GAME HISTORY: Jing has a lot of history for a man so young. He was ALWAYS the King of Bandits because he can't remember a time when he wasn't. As a child, his mother left his side somewhere before he was ten years of age. Many of those first years were spent being unable to use his gimp of a right arm. Regardless of such a draw back, Jing managed with his other arm just fine but when his tenth birthday did come about, he got a present from his mother. It was a gun to help his arm mobilize again but due to another series of events (his friends bringing him an egg and Cassis getting kidnapped) Jing broke the gun and made use of the hatched bird instead. He and the albatross have been together ever since. The broken gun was mailed off to return when he turned 30 years old, but for now he manages with his own inventions and his faithful partner in crime at his side. Jing has travelled all over the world, high, low and everywhere in between. It's very rare that the King of Bandits stays in one place for very long unless his task takes longer then intended. More often then not, it's his own easy distraction and curiousity that will keep him hanging around in a city. Generally, he's pretty in and out with cities and towns, but he always stays long enough to get a feel for the place.
As for where he's been? Jing has been pretty much everywhere, and how he gets to each place is sometimes as equally interesting as his adventures there. China, the Caribbean, France, Brazil and even the Antarctic. Jing won't ever stop travelling the world and doing what he enjoys most. He could tell you stories of his tales for eternity and that'd still probably be only half of them.
HOMELAND OF CHARACTER: Maybe here, maybe there. His homeland could be anywhere but to those who follow was born in Prague.
BRIEF IN-CHARACTER JOURNAL POST: If it's a Cross, then there should be a Cross running through it, or it should be in the shape of a cross when you view it from the sky. All the buildings could be crosses. Better yet, paint over the city. Buildings, streets, yards. A painted cross over the city of Cross. That would surely put it on the map.

'X marks the spot.'

This is the only place that fits that description just from it's name. I wonder what it is she wanted me to do here...

All that matters right now is that I'm here so time to make the most of it. I expect we'll discover whatever we were meant to do here soon enough. For now, we'll make a home in one of the abandonned buildings, fix it up, put a lock on the door and build some furniture. That shouldn't be so hard. A few blankets around the place would give it more of a Indian feel. Kir's been sleeping heavily for awhile now, so a good rest will be the first thing on our list.
BRIEF IN-CHARACTER RP SCENARIO:
"Hey Kir, do you know what King Louis the Eleventh's dying wish was?" the King of Bandits asked his caged companion as they rode on the upper level of a double decker bus.

There was only a muffled noise from the bird as his beak was held shut. Regulations and such. He didn't want to get caught here for whatever reason.

"A bite of Brie de Meaux, apparently the best tasting cheese in the word. Le Roi Des Fromages," there was that confident little grin on Jing's face and Kir knew just what that meant. They were headed for Brie, it had been some time since they had last visited France anyways.

The muzzle was removed from the bird as it began to squack, "-Hey! Jing!-" It seemed to be almost whistled in a way, "-Will there- -be- -gi-rls-?"

The bandit laughed and gave a nod, "There just might be. Don't get ahead of yourself, Kir. We're still on the bus afterall."

There was another kind of call, the bird seemed aggrivated by such an answer but curled up in it's cage anyways. "You're going to bed? Well, it is late so I guess I will too. Goodnight." He tapped the top of the cage and leaned back in his seat.

By morning the duo were no longer present on the bus. In fact, the driver was far to confused as to where the passenger and his bird had gone as one could not have gotten off without passing the door near his seat. All that was pinned to the seat where the young lad was 'Thank you for the ticket money - King of Bandits'.

The driver later realized the fifty Euros in his wallet had gone missing.
