Things were rapidly changing in Rutaba's life as of late, and with one thing happening after another, it just felt like there was no good downtime. First off, Jinjer appeared out of nowhere into the Peacekeeper's life and suddenly he had someone else to look after. She was young, it was like being a parent on the turn of a dime and Rutaba was hardly of age to be taking care of a child without preparation. And second, his mind had been running with various ideas that had been posed to him that he didn't want to give in to just yet. About the only thing he could do to get his mind off of everything was training around various places on Plant but, he could only get so far doing that.
For the first time in ages, the Saiyan had very little idea of what to do with his free time. But then again, he was a Peacekeeper. Perhaps he could lowkey go on patrol as an excuse to just, head around the capital city? It didn't sound like quite a bad idea to put himself out there. Without too much more thought put into it, the Saiyan left the imminent safety of solidarity and headed to the Northern Capital of Plant for the first time since he had arrived it felt like. At least, in the way he was going to now. He had always flown above it to get to Demalia's place, but never once had he actually landed to see the bustling areas down below, and with the day being so young, bustling it was!
The Saiyan stood out like a ridiculously tall sore thumb like this, the many Tuffles that he moved around in the streets all easily being around half his size. His coal-colored eyes and hair didn't help at all to make him not stick out in the crowd, and soon enough he'd find himself just being lost in a sea of people that he couldn't actually look at because the tops of their heads blocked out his sight. He hadn't realized just how different Tuffles were from the Saiyans in this way. He must have seemed like a giant to all of them, he was the abnormal one here not them.
Getting a bit claustrophobic in the crowds of small people, the Saiyan would make his way to the closest area that was a bit more open to catch a breather. It was a small market that only a few people were actually present shopping, but that didn't stop him from noticing just how small the stalls were as well. Thinking back on it, everything would probably be scaled down a bit from what he was used to. As he walked through the market, he'd have to lean over a bit to see properly inside some of the places, peering inside at the odd things he wasn't accustomed to seeing. Saiyan and Tuffle culture were so different from one another that even some of these shops carried things he didn't even know existed.
It'd be an understatement to say that this tall man in a small world looked like a lost sheep. He didn't even know how to interact with anyone at this rate. Perhaps he should have waited for Demalia to show him around to get more used to things, she was far more used to this world than he was and would have been able to ease him into it. "I... don't think I should have come here." was all the Saiyan could mumble to himself as he walked back into the more crowded streets that awaited him. The feeling of towering over everything else hit him even harder this time as he had time to dwell on it. The city definitely wasn't supposed to accommodate him, but he was having trouble adjusting to it as well.
Not even noticing it, Rutaba had wandered off in his worried train of thought and got himself entirely lost. He was only able to snap back into reality as he found the crowds he was sifting through actually sort of fizzling out and becoming smaller in density. It took him a moment to get his bearings to find out why, and it turned out he wandered his way into a school district. That was no surprise either, the Tuffles were known for their high intelligence, so schools were bound to be everywhere. It was nothing like the academy he was put through to get into the force. It looked so much more peaceful of a place. Somewhere of knowledge, not fighting. Had Demalia come to a place like this once upon a time as well?
He stood there for quite a while wondering about that, the tall Saiyan standing sort of idly in the more open space among the much smaller race as he lost all other trains of thought. He probably looked weird just sort of sitting there, though.
