[Min-Gi gives a stiff nod and drops the gem in the man's hand, closing the little box and putting it in his pocket.
The man hands Ryan their parcel and that's that. Min is already opening the door to get out.
Out.. into the street. That he absolutely doesn't trust. Looking around suspiciously before allowing himself and then Ryan out into the cobbled lane.
Good, okay, that's done. Now he's on a mission, he just wants to complete it and-
-and what, exactly. Go home where it's safe? Nowhere is safe. A portal almost ate him in Shiro's house, why would inside be any safer. One could open under him while he's asleep and he would have no way to know or escape.
Which is what he's been thinking a lot about since the end of last month. It makes sleep difficult. It makes relaxing difficult. The only reason he could let loose a little with Shiro is the fact they were on a hover bike and the likelihood of a portal being able to get them felt a lot lower.
Man, unless once opened suddenly and they went careening into it.
No more hover bike rides.
Damn.

I wish these places had catalogs, it would be so much easier. We should go to a shoe maker next and then somewhere for the rest of the basics. I don't want to be carrying around a bunch of parcels.
