Monday DE: We're Busy Doing Nothing

Ooops.

Guess who just realised it's a Monday! Sorry, folks.

What does your character do when they haven't got anything to do?

Jon says he loves downtime, could just sit with a cup of tea and contemplate the universe, yup.

The lies he tells. He pretty much always has a book or a statement to read or a little project around the apartment to finish or... something. And if he really doesn't have anything on his personal to-do list, he'll make something. Like a little DIY furniture demolition. Something like that. :D

Klaus, on the other hand, can definitely just zone out and wait for things to happen. There's quite a lot of times in his life where his only option is to sit and wait.

Wei Wuxia may not have anything officially to do, but he will always find something to do. Even if that something is 'go get some wine and sprawl on my crush's roof'.

Sabine finds something to do, likely some art.

Ahsoka avoids elder jedi who will give an idle padawan something to do.

Jess gets nervous that something world-shattering is about to go down.

Wen Qing would check the status of her herbs and maybe work in the garden.

Ben just leans back with whatever book Klaus held last so he can do some reading.

Zenigata: There's no such thing as nothing to do. [depression switch gets flipped] I'm sorry I haven't left my bed in four days, shaved or showered.

basically, if there's nothing to do, Zenigata has given up and depression and alcoholism is running the show. He doesn't stay idle long; he likes to relax and have a beer and talk to a friend but that's still Something that takes an effort. Bjut he'll make work where there's little to do to keep himself busy.

Zuko: ....what's that like? I don't rememeber. Did I ever? Zuko has had to do Sit Around and Wait, but it was always something he could fill with training, shouting, fire, dodging his uncle, trying to meditate, etc.

Lan Zhan: This is the perfect time for tea, watching the snow fall, and maybe meditation. He's literally the only one without a sense of performance/productivity based anxiety.
