Upon receiving an explanation for his missing item, Shin lets out a gentle breath of relief. "Ah.. I-I see.. Y-yeah the instrument was just something I've been working on.. but, I wouldn't say it's any valuable.. hah ..hahah.." He scratches his head as a hint of embarrassment arose from Shin upon mentions of his little guitar project. But he was still relieved, at least those still remained intact. Shin immediately rejected the idea of having Mim clean up his mess while he ate, however. "A-ah! No, please.. I-I couldn't possibly make you do that..! You should come eat too!" Shin hurriedly stood up and waited for Mim by the door. "I-I'll try to tend to this right after I'm done.. o-okay..?" He says, while trembling a little. -
Extremely taken aback by the sudden mention of Lizaveta, Shin nearly let out a nervous stutter. "....!-" But quickly shook his head and obediently followed along with Mim's words, while averting his gaze from her and glanced around his own room. "..A-ah, okay... I'll head on ove-" It was then he noticed that there was a certain something missing from his room. He just remembered that he might have left his room unlocked last night, but it should've been fine, he had nothing that anyone would necessarily want.. Plus, Shin's room is not really a place others would like to be in. He looks around his room a little more, specifically towards the loose papers he has on the floor. ..But still, he didn't remember anyone coming in at night. He did feel a pleasant breeze or two gently flowing across his face while he tried closing his eyes, but that was about it. He quickly turns to Mim mid-sentence. "Hey.. wait a minute. Mim, did anyone come in here last night or something?"

Though feeling a little bad, Shin gratefully takes a drink from the canteen. Thankfully the cough didn't get too disastrous, preventing him for making more of a mess. *Cough* "A-ah, thank you M-Mim.. I'm fine." He then attempts to hand the canteen back to Mim, but it was then he realized that a new disaster had already begun. "It was just a-.." "...cough.."

Shin had barely slept at all, but he had been too dazed and out of it to even notice Lysander's deft maneuvers. Well, it's not like he had much to steal ...that had any monetary value anyway. Shin's dry, bloodshot eyes glanced towards the window that let through the bright morning light. He had hoped for a renewal that came with a new day after some sleep but this felt more like it was only going to go on for much longer. He rubbed what felt like dried up fluids off from his face, and averted his gaze back towards the ceiling. "Ahh.. It's already morning." he thinks to himself. Before he even had enough time to sit in his thoughts a little more, he was jolted up by the sudden knocking on his door. He didn't really expect anyone to come get him usually, he could only start to wonder who could it be before his question was immediately answered by the voice of ..Mim! This was a surprise to Shin, he thought that after his sorry display yesterday Mim would've wanted nothing to do with him, as he was used to people feeling so. He didn't want to keep her waiting, and plus it wasn't like he could even sleep in the first place anyway. He tried to respond with a simple, "Ah.. I'll be a bit." but his excessively dry mouth and throat only forced him into a violent coughing fit. "Ah-" He couldn't do anything but kneel on the ground while desperately trying to calm his coughing while answering at the same time. *COUGH COUGH* "I-"*COUGH* "c-c-"*COUGH*

It took a while for Shin to process Ferdiad's question, he had never been asked this sort of thing before so this clearly took him by surprise. It was a good surprise though, for a change. "A-ah..! really? I-I definitely could.. I wouldn't mind at all-" A tiny smile forms across his face. "..I'd really like that." Shin had more that wanted to say, but in the current moment this was all he could remember to reply with.
-
Ferdiad's words reassured Shin somewhat, he knew he wasn't the only one in pain from all this and that he didn't need to deal with all of it alone either. He picks up his head. "..You're right." "..I-I'll try to work towards doing better for everyone too." Shin pauses for a bit. "s-somehow."
-
Shin paused at the recollection of the whole day for a brief moment before responding. "It was.. a mess, wasn't it.. We did meet some new people, and that makes me happy, but.." He then glances away with the thought of Baldur and Lizaveta before murmuring "I.. caused a lot of problems too." "I don't want to cause anything like that again." He pauses once more, before asking: "But.. have you been dealing with everything all okay, Ferdiad?"
-
Doing nothing but laying in his bed, he takes a look around his messed room. "......" Until he hears a knocking on his door. ..He wasn't sure how long he left whoever was there on the other side waiting, but he eventually opens the door just a crack to answer them. Anyone could easily see how red and tired Shin's eyes are at the moment. "A-ahh.. Ferdiad..! It's just me in here." "I think I have everything I need.. thank you." Shin says as he takes another look around his room, and notes how much in disarray it really is. He then looks back at Ferdiad with guilt. "Um ..t-thanks for always working so hard for us, by the way.." His face grows increasingly awkward as he continues on. "I-if I could ever help with anything on your end.. please do let me know."

Upon finishing dinner, Shin immediately left for his room, shut the door and hoped to whatever force that's out there to allow him to close his eyes and end the day, despite normally being averse to sleeping. Maybe a reset of sorts would be what he needed the most. He took off his equipment and set them on the empty bed-frame, and collapsed onto the mattress he'd move onto the floor. He lay there... ..for what felt like an hour, maybe even more. But it seems like every force was intent on keeping him from escaping the thoughts plaguing his head. He could only stare at the ceiling as the calm moonlight radiated through his window, calmness he so desperately wanted. But all that was coming to him we're the muffled yelling from the outside. It was faint, but pleasant it was not. ..he somehow felt like he had a hand in that as well. This long day seemed to have no intention of ending, it seems.
-
The surge of emotion he felt had completely choked him up. Shin couldn't do anything but just look at her, trying his best to stop himself from completely losing his grip on himself. A few moments later his gaze moved towards the ground, as he weakly let out whatever words of appreciation he could. "...I-I.." "..thank.. you.." Shin couldn't do anything else from then on. But in his heart he finally started to realize that people did care about him, with Liza and Justine's words replaying at the back in his head. After dinner, he silently went back into his room hoping that he could fall asleep, to get a fresh start tomorrow.
-
"AAH- L-Liza..! T-thank you--" Startled at being caught by Liza, he looks at her and nervously replies. "I think I'm okay.. it was just a clumsy move on my part ..as always.." Shin tries to regain his balance on the ground, looks to both Lizaveta, Justine and Reiko before regrettably muttering: "I.. didn't mean to trouble you all again, though.. s-sorry.." before he lowers his head in gratitude.
-
Shin slowly raises his head with his hand on his forehead, wincing as he tried to speak. "Agh..! Y-yeah.. I think I'm okay.. sorry.." He says before losing his balance.
-
Shin sets aside his things and starts following after Arthur. "Wait! I can clean this, I didn't know there would be this many new people moving in-" he yells as he tumbles down the stairs.
-
Shin couldn't really process what was happening, he couldn't have possibly expected that suggestion from Mim. But all he could ..no, HAD to do now was to stop all hell from breaking loose. "A-AH No, wait! Arthur you don't wanna go in there yet-" as he desperately tries to stop the ma from entering his room. (to no avail)
-
With his headache subsiding, Shin silently follows behind the rest of the gang as Kane had ordered earlier. Clutching his chest as he moved. "I.. I'll try to sort myself out when we get home.. No point in staying here."
-
I regrettably announce that Shin couldn't afford the promotion fee "I thought that all was lost, but it turns out I could do just fine.." Shin promotes to Nomad Promotion Bonuses: HP +2, STR +1, SKL +2, SPD +2, CON +3, AID +3, MOV 5 New Preferred Stats: SKL, SPD New Personal Skills: Escapism - (If Shin moves more than half his MOV, +15 Evade until his next turn.)

Upon the reveal of Crimson's name, a headache snapped Shin out of his trance ...for a little bit anyway. "Ar..thur...?" Shin says as he presses his hands against his aching head in response.
-
".........." Shin could only just stand in silence, normally he wouldn't be opposed to having more people on the team. But after what had just happened, he could only shudder as he realized there would be more people he'd be burdening. His expression growing increasingly more pained, as if the anguish was burning a hole straight through him.
-
Feeling unable to do anything apart from causing more trouble than he already has, Shin offers Lizaveta with some tissues. His face painted with guilt upon hearing her muffled sniffling. "Here ..in case you- ..here." He then mutters one last line before heading off to an unoccupied section of the area, being consumed by his own thoughts soon after. "I'm.. sorry, for all this."
-
Absolutely devastated by what had just occurred, he quickly rushes towards Lizaveta. "Are you okay-?! I-I'm sorry, I..."
-
Growing increasingly tense from the escalating banter, and with Lizaveta having to stand up for Shin, he desperately tried to stop it from getting even more out of hand. "N-no, please.. s-stop for a bit-" "A-ah.. Li-...Scarlet! It's okay, that's enough! You really don't have to-"
-
Shin quickly tries to explain, but Mim was already storming off, his words landing nowhere. "A-ah n-no they're all good! It's just that I-"
-
"A-ah.. no no they all did great... I um.. I always look like this.."
-
Shin was in the middle of day dreaming when he feels a bouncy presence approach him, he then confirms it as Mim trying to start a conversation.. maybe? Shin looks around him, seeing if she was directing the question to anyone else nearby. A moment passes before Shin nervously responds: "D-do you mean.. a-are you asking ...me?" "Ah h-hi.. uh. My name is.. um.. Shin." He was not used to people being this friendly with him, especially after how chaotic and bumpy this whole ordeal was. "Ah.. n-no no, I don't- I mean I-I do use a bow, but-" "I.. didn't do much, really.. haha.." Shin then quickly adds on while sweating profusely: "But y-you did really good though..! You we're really cool back there.."
-
Through all this talk of theatrics and performances, Shin heads towards the center of all the noise as he jests to himself. "We have masks and everything, we could probably pass off as some circus crew..." Shin stops at C8 "..It would be much different from whatever we're doing now, that's for certain.."
