6th Dusting

[Out tonight. On roofs, over buildings, watching. Looking - it's gotten colder so now's in in a coat and all, but ... restless. Back from the mission on the second, slow to give Summers back the scythe. Slower still to calm down after all that fighting. Winged bastards. Her own wings twitch in the night air- she can still see her breath in the air too. Ridiculous. See her all over town tonight looking around for something that needs protecting or watching. A patrol, in other words.

This is complicated at about midnight. A bizarre feeling strikes her she can't pinpoint he origin of. A great sense of loneliness and need to belong. It's from that moment that she decide to first go to the item shop late at night - either breaking in or walking in depending on if it's open - and seeing if she can find some piercing studs. From there, to the Smithy - see if anyone's there, and if no one else (and given this late hour she doubts anyone is) admiring that's in the windows before shaking her head and walking back to her apartment. The next morning, this appears on the journals:]

[Voice]

Anyone know if you can pierce these hokum wings? They heal it up or infect?

[sundead]

[what even.]

That's the exact opposite of something I want to try.

[Action]

[kineticcajun]

Old habits, chere. Hard to break the habit of bein' up half the night.

[Not that there's much reason to be awake here, but still.]

[voice]

[endgames]

There's a guy running around here with a pierced wing. If you're willing to put up with the consequences, it's do-able.

[Voice]

[makeitquick]

["does it matter-" no she already threw it out.]

In Versi, we don't got creds. Solid coi and other stuff - sil, gold, jade. Feel like I oughta put some coi on these things if I'm gonna have'em.

[makeitquick]

Then go on in.

[she would break the door but... no ones there. it would be pointless]

[ voice ]

[makeitquick]

I got my points at the end?

[voice]

[makeitquick]

How do you know it's actually got you healthy?

[Action]

[makeitquick]

Right. Bet those eyes keep you up.

[Glowing and all]

[voice]

[makeitquick]

Really? Spled.

[Action]

[kineticcajun]

[Grin.] They sure do make it easier t'see in the dark.

Speakin' of. Anythin' in particular you were lookin' for? [He can tell this isn't any plain old midnight stroll.]

[voice]

[endgames]

Really really. Have fun with that, if that's what you're set on doing.

[Sounds more painful than it's worth to him.]

[bamfing]

[He hops to the ground between her and the door, then holds out a hand.]

Want to join me?

Action]

[makeitquick]

No. Not right now.

[Lightly. Never anything doing. the same, the same. Dull dull. Ugh]

[voice]

[makeitquick]

Will do.

[Because she so is, clearly]

[makeitquick]

[...What? Okay. She takes the hand there]

[Voice]

[shadedsunlight]

[The slang is odd, but it doesn't take too long for her to parse out a meaning.]

If you get anything done, I'd like to see. When I can see again.

[Voice]

[makeitquick]

[...]

Who are you anyway?

[Voice]

[shadedsunlight]

Ah, yeah. This is Ginia. Your neighbor. Well, was, I moved up a few floors.

Before you ask, Malnosso, kidnapped, blind, can talk.

[bamfing]

[HOPEFULLY SHE IS READY.

When they teleport, they'll be inside the smithy. A brief trip, but it's kind of like going on a roller coaster. Backwards. All in less than a second.]

There. Easy.

[voice]

[flaring]

Pfft, never got the appeal of sticking holes into yourself.

Is it worth the risk? I mean those wings are kinda important.

[ voice ]

[herotypical]

Saving up for anything nice?

[voice]

[sundead]

Because other people warned us about it.

[Voice]

[makeitquick]

[A light whistle here. which prompts the sound of a demon monkey reacting in the background, but we don't talk about that]

[makeitquick]

[...Jesu. she lets go abruptly, but doesn't show much a physical reaction beyond that and flinching]

[voice]

[makeitquick]

And you're accepting that?
