SHINING WORLD ; a panfandom tropical roleplay

[Philip is sitting on the porch of the Rider group's house, flipping through his blank book. He'd heard about Valentine's Day before, but last year Shotaro had told him not to bother with it and that they had more important things to do. They DID, so he hadn't actually gotten to research it, but now he thought maybe he'd take another look at it.

He's eating a box of chocolate he found on the welcome mat, not at all thinking that eating strange food might be dangerous. After all, he DOES have to eat or he'll get yelled at.]

[Philip was sitting out in front of Tendou's house. His house too, he supposed. But he didn't really consider it his. He was just staying there. He still very much looks like he hasn't been sleeping, and if he has, he's had a hard time of it. He has been eating, at least, since Tendou pretty much forced that on him. He's grateful, and says as much sometimes, but the fact that he's been banned from reading int he kitchen has been problematic since it's hard for him to break out of his research.

Slowly but surely, with the help of others, Philip has been gathering keywords. He's been narrowing his searches, weeding out what's locked from him from what isn't, figuring out what information he has. He'd taken over a room adjoining the one he slept in for the purpose of being able to map things out on the walls, but that's since spilled over into his bedroom as well. It was starting to overwhelm him, so he took the project outside, and has been sitting in the grass, reading whatever he can access, staring at his blank book. His eyes widen slightly. It seems he's finally made a breakthrough.]

Add keyword: Witches.

[He's still for a moment, then shuts his book and re-opens it, starting from the beginning. It's the only result with the final keyword added in, but it may be just what he's been looking for… With one hand, he's turning pages, and with the other he's typing notes in short-hand into a notepad application on his phone, wishing he hadn't gone outside to do this, but not having the presence of mind to get up and go inside.]
