[MIDSYN] So what's going on with Gojyo?

In the comments to this post I'll be sharing what Gojyo's been doing for the past month, any immediate future plans, things other people might notice about him, etc.

Whoring
Gojyo is currently taking clients for the Maeve. Women only, singly or in small groups (no more than 3 at a time), for afternoons, evenings, and full nights. He's seeing at least one client a day, sometimes as many as three.

Pig House
The money from all this sex work is going toward Pig House, his secret wayhouse/orphanage for street kids. It's three small apartments in one of the worst areas of Eros (images to come) that doesn't offer much more than beds and bathrooms, but he's going to try and feed the kids, too. Any time he's not in the Crossing working, he'll be in Pig House or out in Eros trying to scavenge more supplies for the place. He should have the place set up and ready to take in kids starting in February. While Gojyo has told nobody about Pig House, anyone with contacts among Eros's poor or gangs is welcome to have heard that one of the whores is trying to set up a house for homeless kids, and to have a good idea where in town it is/who is running it.

Specific character interactions
At some point, if he's going to continue getting it up six times a day, he's going to have to approach Samantha about getting some herbal assistance.

He's volunteering with Chika's habitat for humanity program, too, helping rebuild houses for Eros's poor.

He's recently stumbled head first into proof that Yoruichi has boyfriends other than him. He knew this -- it's not like they've got a committed, monogamous relationship or anything -- but it was still a shock to meet Ezio. Gojyo doesn't like feeling jealous of Yoruichi's other lovers, and he's decided that he's clinging to her too much. He shouldn't be relying on anyone but himself, so he'll be avoiding her for the foreseeable future.

He's simply not able to bring himself to be nice to Evelyn to her face, so the next best thing is to keep his head down, take clients like the Maeve want, and to try to stay out of Evelyn's way.

Feel free to notice:
The stress of avoiding his girlfriend, trying to take care of all these kids, and fucking women who see him as an exotic toy wills tart to get to him during January, and Gojyo will start drinking more. He won't ever get to the point of slurring or stumbling, but other characters are welcome to notice that he smells perpetually like beer (or, if it's early in the morning, that he's clearly hung over). He'll be doing most of his drinking at the Black Wheel, a dive bar within stumbling distance of Pig House.

Goku/travel
He's got a little pulse (not a heartbeat, just a steady beating) in his left wrist that tells him that Goku is still alive and well, courtesy of Perdita. This tracker is the only reason he's not trying to break into Evelyn's rooms constantly -- he knows Goku is okay, so he feels safe leaving the manor house and moving about in Eros. However, he will not be leaving Eros voluntarily any time in the near future. He doesn't want to risk being too far away from Goku, in case something happens.

In the shops below are a little family-run bodega, a 10-machine laundromat, and a carpeting store that launders money for one of the local mobs.
