Tag You're It [D-Rank]

Today Shin could deal with compared to the adventure that had led them to the sewers of Iwagakure no Sato. Still not believing that the previous day had happened and refusing to comment on in, Shin stared at the wall of the first shop they were tasked with restoring. Compared to the sewers, today he could handle, though he felt like he could still smell the sewers no matter where he went; a long shower certainly hadn’t helped his nose forget the smell, he could only hope cleaning the graffiti off these walls would at least provide a well enough distraction to forget about it temporarily.

The piece of art before him, if it could even be called that, was simply a skull that didn’t know like a skull whatsoever. Though it wasn’t the only addition to this one wall, for there was a second piece of art that joined it upon sidewall of the bookstore. This at least looked like something reasonable; a rat… or a mouse. Shin didn’t care which one it was for it would soon be removed from the wall before him. Looking down before him at the rags, gloves, sponges and canisters of paint remover, Shin let out a breath of relief that at least today would be far simpler than the sewer had been. Grabbing a pair of gloves and putting them on, Shin reached for one of the canisters of paint removed.

Shin’s attention would turn to the circular looking squished food cart and his head would tilt to the side trying to see what it actually was. It certainly did not appear to be a food cart. Shin’s conclusion was if it was a food cart… it was a terrible food cart. Katsumi’s input of it being a skull, still had him looking at the image and simply not seeing the skull either. It just looked like someone scribbling away randomly with no rhyme or reason, resulting in whatever the hell that was. “Might as well move on to the next shop when you’re done. I’ll meet you there and we can just get this all out of the way quickly.” Shin would approach the wall and begin removing the paint upon it. The graffiti upon the wall he was looking at was some letters that were nearly illegible to the normal human eye, and Shin did not want to attempt to read it whatsoever. “Well, if you want to advertise who you are to the world, might as well mark your territory as something ridiculous. I myself couldn’t be bothered with something like this.” A few solid minutes would pass by with Shin scrubbing away and the drawing being completely removed from the wall. Shin would move on to the next shop of the three they were supposed to clean up and the process would be repeated. It wouldn’t be too long before Shin was done with cleaning up the walls.
