Jamal paused as he collected his pop can, glancing up with a manner that clearly showed he wasn't interested in hearing what she had to say, at least...at first. The fact she even said anything to him was more promising than a stony silence though so he did give her the benefit of the doubt.
"Mmmph, I see," he murmured, disbelief still apparent, but not as thickly so. She was from a city...that made sense. Jamal understood that whole "watch your back" mentality. "Well, you not sayin' anythin' didn't help none, so ya know."

((Gack, so sorry. I deleted that post because I didn't know if Sabin and Kamiki were posting back or not e.e Yeah I'm an idiot who got ahead of herself. So repost then... or we can delete these and save them for later, Jade.))
Rayanya watched the black man for a few moments, contemplating, before deciding to take a bit of action. Granted, he could just blow her off without saying a single word, but she still might as well try. After all, where she grew up ethnic diversity was hideously common; hell, you could still occasionally catch a tinge of German accent in her voice. And she knew how to read people's faces, especially when they thought you were discriminating against them. You learn a lot in New York City schools, and by growing up in the middle of Hell's Kitchen.
"Hey," she said to him, raising her voice a bit to ensure she was heard. "I'm pretty sure I know what you thought I was thinking, and I wanted to say I wasn't thinking that at all. You startled me, that's all that look meant. Where I come from, bad things tend to happen when people appear randomly behind you."
((To go before Jamal's last post))

Swiping a bit of hair from her face, Ray kept her gaze on Jamal. "Just wanted you to know. I'm not like that, I don't discriminate, in case you couldn't tell. I'm not even close to normal." She chuckled, but there was little humor behind it. "And you're just another person, take no offense." Ray reclined in her chair a bit and watched for Jamal's reaction. "So basically, I'm sorry for any wrong impression I might have given you."

Jamal didn't say anything for awhile, but finally nodded. "A'ight then..." he drawled. "But sumtimes peeps dat look diff'rent be hatin' mo' then normal lookin' peeps, so you ain't impossible ta be one of -them-." He tossed his trash into the nearest available can and sauntered over to her table, vaguely curious as to what she was drawing that entire time.

"I assure you, I'm not one of them." Rayanya offered Jamal a smile, though, as ever, it had something eerie behind it -- most likely caused by the heavy makeup Rayanya wore on her face. Calm gaze on her face, she watched Jamal approach and gave him a small tip of her top hat. "I'm Rayanya, by the way." She moved her tray to the side with a simple sweep of one heavily-ringed hand.

"Jamal," he said, caring little that she probably heard them using his name. "Now, I take it yer new...cause you ain't changed none. When'd you get herr?"
((Sorry for short post and LONG delay D: ))

((No problem. And... I don't know whether to go by the date on my cert or the day I recieved the art. So I'll go by art/RP.))
"Fairly new." Rayanya finally matched her blue eyes up with Jamal's; it was something she normally did from the start of a conversation, but she had decided to wait with him due to his poor first impressions of her. "I've been here about a month now, but, for the most part, I've stayed in my duplex. I'm really not one for social situations... well, at least I wasn't. Maybe its the nice weather but I find myself out and about more often these days."
Ray cracked open her own soda and took a drink. "You look unchanged as well, how long have you been around?"
((Edit: Sorry Jade, I'm worn out, in a great deal of pain, and stressed. I'm gonna wrap up this in my journal and finish some net stuff, then do that sleep thing.))
Rayanya's small watch beeped, and she gave a startled look. "Oh!" She leapt from the table and grabbed her tray. "Sorry, Jamal, gotta run! Need to take care of something. Nice meeting you!" After discarding her leftover food and tray, she dashed quickly from the cafeteria, skirt billowing out behind her.

~ New RP ~
Joliette wandered into the rec room of the town hall and peered around... empty, somehow that didn't entirely shock her. Most places around the village were often empty, even with about 27 people there at current sometimes she felt like she was living in a ghost town. Wearing her black Gi she wandered over to the movie shelves and dug through the selections looking for one of her favorites, she had very few, but she had some none the less. She found what she was looking for after a fair amount of digging, it seemed british comedy wasn't high on the list of 'to-buys' on the isle.
Setting it on a end table she decided to get some practise in.... "When the gale blows, the stiff oak resists and breaks, the flexible willow bends and survives" She says quietly to herself as she moves, her mind clear and alert. She stood at rest for a moment, her fist resting near the hip, with the palm facing upwards. Then she opened her eyes and struck out, her arm extending forward in a straight line, wrist twisting as her elbow passed her body, till she completed the punch so that her palm faced to the ground, she was punching thin air but didn't care "Ichi.. Ni... San... Shi... Go... Roku... Shichi... Hachi... Ku... Ju" she counted each number in turn quickly each time she repeated the move and each and ever time she repeated the move she pictured the git at the connecting end of her blow, like the day in the jungle.......

Chubbs rubbed his eyes as he came yawned and popped a cigarette in his mouth, it was one of the few he had left. He lit it up and dragged his hefty butt towards the rec room, to crash on the couch and watch a movie. He had been working hard, getting up early and staying up late watching Joliette.
He heard the sound of a familiar voice, Joliette doing her kata. He pulled the ring back on his can of coke and watched her with a smile. He figured she could kick his a** if she wanted to.

Joliette pauses hearing hte compresed air of hte soda can escaping and looked towards the door to see who it was "David!" she grinned widely and relaxed her stance and the man she had fallen for wandered into the room.

Chubbs took a sip and chuckled as she saw him, he hadn't planned on interupting her through her training.
"Aww man, this is twice now I got in the way of you training... I'll umm come back later okay?"
He smiled and took a smoke of his cigarette, waving to her.

Chubbs blinked and turned around, looking at his cigarette. It was a force of habit to not smoke inside buildings, and he took one more puff before throwing it away and stepping inside.
He took another drink and wandered towards his beautiful girl with a smile. Chubbs wondered how he could he, he would do anything she wanted of him.
" What can I do ya for?"

"Hold this, gives me something to hit." She miled and held towards him the thick coushin, she winked slightly "I like having someone to practise with"

Chubbs chuckled and held onto the cushion, placing it near his chest but not on it. He braced himself in front of her.
" YA know I got my bag up in my room, maybe next time ya can try that. I finally got it up"
