No canary in a cage for me
Who: Laurel Lance + OPEN
What: Catch-all log w/open prompts
When: Month of December
Where: Several locations
(i) Ｔｒａｉｎｉｎｇ
Over the past few weeks Laurel had established a training routine for herself, agreeing to train or spar with a couple of her fellow Sleepers at least once a week. She focused on hand to hand combat, perfecting her technique with the tonfas and just general cardio to keep herself fit.
Laurel made the most of the limited resources in this place, knowing that she wouldn't find a gym like the ones back in her city. At least the workout areas in Trench didn't cost a monthly subscription or involve people trying to sell the latest protein shake or a detox that promised 'miracles.'
When she wasn't training with another Sleeper at an agreed time, Laurel rose early and tried to get some workouts before having breakfast, wanting to get an energetic start to her day.
(ii) Ｗｉｌｌｆｕｌ Ｍａｃｈｉｎｅ
The hustle and bustle of the area that Laurel had chosen to live in reminded her of Star City. Part of it anyway. Back home only seemed to have open markets and sellers in certain parts of the city or at certain times of the year, but it seemed to go on all the time in Willful Machine. She's already traded a few things, getting used to how the sellers operated, negotiating with them until she got a good deal.
At least her skills as a lawyer were proving to be useful.
Laurel can be found in the general area of Willful Machine throughout the day and also into the evening when the market sellers packed up their stalls and headed home. When she isn't patrolling, she heads back home after grabbing something to eat or ingredients to make a really simple dinner for herself.
(iii) Ｏｕｔ ｆｏｒ ａ ｒｕｎ （ｍｕｌｔｉｐｌｅ ａｒｅａｓ）
Between her training sessions Laurel kept her fitness up by going for a jog around different parts of Trench. She also uses it as a way to familiarise herself with places, in case she ends up stuck in one of them for some reason or another. After the horrible experience last month, Laurel knows it would be easy enough for something like the zealots to snatch her up and take her God knows where. Knowing the area and by extension, maybe getting to know the people there may help her in the longterm.
Her jacket is tied around her waist as she runs, feeling too warm to put it on despite the colder temperature. In one hand Laurel is holding onto a canteen filled with water because of course this world didn't have anything like the containers she was used to. But Laurel was resourceful and made do with what she had.
She takes an occasional break to stretch out her arms and legs, regulating her breathing at the same time.
((ooc: If we have plans for December’s event, you can use this log for it as well. ))

"You'll figure it out. You're smart." Laurel will do what she can to help him with the process. "It's a small, one-bedroom but it's got a couch and I've got spare blankets. I also have an area set aside for research so you're more than welcome to use it too. It's not too loud, but it all depends on what market sellers are around."
She's used to noise from living in a large, busy city.
no subject
He's not sure, mothers can be tricky subjects for people. His own is nothing but an empty spot in his memories- but he knows other people...well. It can be painful. He nods at the description of her room.
"That sounds pretty perfect, actually. And I promise I won't take up too much space," he gestures to himself, haha, short joke.
no subject
She laughs at the joke, covering her mouth with a hand for a moment. "Is it okay that I laughed, right? Because that was a good one, Varian." He really is a sweet - she doesn't want to use the word kid despite him being much younger than her - person.
"I'm just a message away."
no subject
He appreciates that, he's eighteen in a few months- NEARLY AN ADULT, GOSH WOW!
"And thank you, I really do appreciate the help."
we can wrap up soon for event things? c:
He has also become a friend to her and like Luz, someone that Laurel has become protective of.
"We can go to my place now if you like? Even for a couple of hours until you have a rest."
aww yee works for me!
He nods, glad to get moving, really. He pulls out his Omni, sending a quick message out.
"Sure, I'll let Fern know I won't be home for a while in case he worries," because he will. "And I'm all set, lead the way!"
