Week II
A - Being rich is Hard (Leith/space bars)

[ Like really. Yeah sure life's cushy as hell when you're Qreshi royalty and you have everything you could really want at the tip of your fingers, but for Rhys there's also the ever-looming reminder of the fact that he's Land Kendry. He's a member of the elite's upper crust and no matter how much he generally dislikes his family he's...allied with them. Della Seyah's words speak for all of them: she's the head of the family. And as part of that it's his duty to put up a unified front not matter how much he desperately wishes to be distinguished from them.

The Kendry name is useful, but Rhys wants more. He wants to get out of the rat race, get out of all the false smiles and pleasantries.

So it makes perfect sense when he decides to hit the upper echelon lifestyle up where smiles couldn't be faker and the pleasantries more unfounded. But hey, that's how Rich People cope. Or at least how Rhys does. So whether it's hiring his favourite bioweapon and pilotchauffeur out for a movie-slash-hokk, complaining to his fellow elites in their houses, bumming at the Company HQ after hours with his "coworkers" or just hitting up some of the more comfortable establishments of Leith, Rhys can be found there being entirely self-indulgent. Because he needs some serious R&R right now, or at least a distraction from his life in general. ]



B - Wtf Hyponia & Simms I mean seriously (Westerly)

[ No, seriously. What the heck is going on with those guys?? Hyponia's to blame for the Derrish attack? And Simms might be their ally...? Rhys has...well maybe not exactly friends but like, associates? Who are Simms and the implications of this are just insane. Sure Land Kendry can't exactly just take all of Hyponia out, but he knows the greedy looks in his relatives' eyes when he sees it. There's blood in the water and all anyone's thinking about is a way to come out on top from it while outwardly projecting an air of concern and disbelief. As if any of them wouldn't cut throats the first chance they got to seize more Qresh land for themselves.

So yeah. Predictably Rhys doesn't go in to work which ultimately doesn't matter because his job is a trophy position anyway. No one's even going to notice he isn't there, which is good. He wants to be anywhere but where Royalty and Company are, so yet again Rhys does the Totally Sane Thing and goes to get drunk off his ass. Very likely at that bar you frequent or happen to be at, for once not proudly displaying his Kendry colours. He doesn't exactly want to be associated with them right now. Or anyone.

So yeah there's definitely some well-coiffed dude just sort of leaning with his head on the bar, a tall glass of neon blue Hokk (the establishment's most expensive), running his mouth off to anyone even remotely close to him. Because again, ResponsibleTM.

It's just one night. What's the harm?? ]
Week III
B - Infectionnnnn (Leith)

[ Which is to say that this is where Rhys either gets infected or gives it to you, or is hallucinating the hell out of things.

Initially Rhys doesn't even realize he's been infected. Being sick is for Poor People and the news of the infection hasn't even started circulating yet. No one knows how deadly it can be or what the symptoms are, so Rhys takes his mild fatigue as a side-effect of the recent goings on, probably slightly related to his drinking all that Hokk the week before. So he thinks nothing of it and goes about his business as usual: work, family meetings, the odd, incredibly awful and unsolicited visited of a certain Scarback, and of course going to see a black market arms dealer.

All completely routine stuff. ]
Week IV
Wildcard

[ ooc; I DON'T HAVE A LOT OF PLANS HERE aside from Rhys getting the cure, so if you wanna do something either just promot me or hmu @ [plurk.com profile] owlits! ]
