Concrete Jungle - Chinatown
A wanderer has to wander. Sedition had been in Jaded Shadows only a few days and the need to travel over took him. Even at Berowick he had scouted and surveyed along with traveling into the nearby territories so this time shouldn't be any different. As a subordinate he didn't have many responsibilities and so, without much contemplating he set out. Concrete Jungle had been Salvaged's haunt of sorts although he had talked about "Luminous Sanctuary" more. The jungle though, left behind by the humans held so many treasures that begged to be seen. Packing up his satchel with a few things along with his carving tools he had managed to leave before the sun had rose the next day and now, hours later found himself standing along the twisting streets that marked the lands known to the humans as Chinatown.
Prowling through the streets, a leather vest draped across his shoulders and glancing his chest as he walked he stopped before a karaoke bar. Tipping his head in curiosity he went inside carefully not wanting to start some sort of avalanche of debris. Old microphones, old amps, a lonely bar with crusty bottles of ancient liquor. It was more than he had hoped of finding. Walking behind the bar the silver male grinned foolishly as he tossed a bottle of rice wine into the air and caught it behind his back. This would surely make juggling a little more interesting. Among the chinese and asian liquors were some north american liquors. His eyes quickly read the labels after scratching away the dust. Whiskey, Bourbon, Vodka, Sake, Rum... it was too much to handle all at once! His tongue had only tasted moonshine and some whiskey before this it ached to taste the new and strange liquor in front of him. "Which one to try first?" He asked the bottles, wondering if one would jump out and scream, "Pick me, pick me!"
When none did he grabbed the bottle of Vodka and settled back behind the bar, imagining the humans gathered around and laughing. He had only heard about karaoke through the elder's books but with the scene laid out before him he let his imagination fill in the gaps.
