Slumber Sentinel There was no way that anyone was going to get Shizuo to paint nails or do any of that. However, when everyone seemed to be going (including his novice,) Shizuo decided that he'd go in his own way. Somewhere in a corner there were clothes tucked away, because he didn't need them for a while.
Instead, with a bunch of the stuffed animals, there looked to be a life sized tiger one, just laying there! Not moving, but sometimes one could see the way the eyes moved to track some of the parties moving around. Or after a long stare, (a staring contest?) there's a slow blink.
'Just' One Day It's only one day without vampire powers, they said. It'll be fine, they said. Except because of it, Shizuo was doing something he never really did, which was wearing a hat that completely covered his scalp. It's the exact same thing he'd done 20 years ago when there was an eclipse last, in order to hide every bit of ash brown hair that he had. Between that and being unable to wear his sunglasses because his human night vision was never as great.
He needed all the vision he could get to catch anyone running past too quickly, or notice other little dangers. "Just one day, they say..."
More people meant it was that much more of a problem. Yet despite this being his riskiest and most dangerous time, Shizuo was ready to get in the way of any fights or other problems. That's what happens when you're ready to act as a shield for others.
Marketplace At least there's one good thing about being around in incognito mode, or so Shizuo likes to think he is, which is going through the market. Not just to make sure the peace is kept, and to spend a few coins, but to see the wares and make sure no one was getting fleeced. Between having had a more worldly experience with what many goods and animals were worth, and having been through the market a previous eclipse, he could get close and try some of the stuff.
Including stopping someone's hand from paying for something. It was either because it wasn't using authentic ingredients or knowing when the quality wasn't up to snuff, or because he knew about a particular animal. However he started with a "Hold onto those coins before you waste 'em."
New Moon Patrols There's not just lions going around on a regular patrol, but with his classes sort of... Nerfed to being in the training areas and going by too quickly for his liking, Shizuo was also going around spending both class time and outside of it wandering in animal form. Which was a large tiger that was white with thick black markings, padding through and sometimes stopping a bit of a ways from others to shake off the rain water.
With a look that said he clearly felt no guilt over it. Especially if you're near the forest when you were someone who shouldn't be. Or to knock people out of being distracted.
What, you going to do something about it? This was a tiger that was definitely over 500lbs.
