RP: Jackson
Who: Jackson, Leon, Emily, Renko, Derek, Marty
When: Wednesday mid-morning, January 25, 2012
Where: Venice Beach, CA
Summary: ...and then Jackson arrives in Omega Reality
Dressed in shorts, t-shirt, and flannel, Jackson walked his normal route down to Venice Beach from his apartment, Vans slapping on the cracked sidewalk. As usual, his padlocked weatherproof backpack rested on his shoulders and he carried his hard-sided guitar case. It was nearing ten in the morning and getting warm outside. The skies were clear blue. The sun blinded him for a moment, and he shielded his eyes with his hand before crossing the street to the boardwalk.
Buskers, street vendors, and tourists were already crowding the boardwalk. Jackson went for his normal spot, only to find it taken by a puppeteer. Normally, the buskers kept their staked out spaces and left the others alone.
The guy must be new, Jackson thought, moving along to find another space on the low retaining wall separating the boardwalk from the beach. He saw a couple other new vendors, as well. Must be more people hit by the bad economic times.
Making sure to keep clear of other singers, Jackson picked a spot, took out his guitar, and perched on the wall. His backpack stayed on and he hooked a heel in the top of the open case by his feet. After tuning his acoustic guitar, he began singing a soft melody and start earning money for the day.
