I. RUNE(TCH A SKETCH)

[ Honestly, Izuku just keeps picking jobs that will allow him to get some magical hands-on training...and runes? Runes are so far his favorite thing, ever. He's not so great at making things (although he can design things, somewhat) but adding runes to already made things is like...well, it's almost easy. He's always been good at memorization, and he carries a pen with him everywhere anyway...

It's just a matter of creatively applying runes to things now, right? He has the steady hands and teh ability to draw straight lines, and he can throw spells into scrolls as long as he's taught the spells to load up. He does his work cheerfully and without complaint, and then...

Well. He makes enough money to buy a small mountian of (to put it nicely) absolute junk. Old bracelets, rusted rings, scraps of nails and really ugly brooches...just things that could be held or kept close, along with borrowed work tools to actually etch runes in place...He sets up outside the house that he shares with several others, legs crossed as he sits out on the porch in easy view of the street, fingers flickering with green light as he works, squinting at the latest piece of Absolute Garbage to get his magic touch...

He's easily interrupted if you're curious, or maybe he looks up and waves you over? ]

II. POTENT POTIONS

[ Being drawn into festival preparations was kind of inevitable. Izuku is bad at saying no to requests to help and furthermore he likes to help with set up...and given his new apothecary in progress training, helping to make potions seems like an easy one!

Unfortunately, luck is just like...rarely on his side. It's his job as a manga protagonist to run into improbable mishaps every so often, and in this case it happens to be spilling some of the potions he's just finished and is delivering to the appropriate booth on you. Maybe you took a corner faster than you should have? Or he got knocked into from behind and then into you...

Either way, these are love potions. So, depending on how much or how many you got on you, your character may or may not fall in love with anyone in the vicinity, including but certainly not limited to Izuku - or maybe it's just warm fuzzy friendship feelings for a few drops? ]

Oh no. [ EITHER WAY THERE GOES SEVERAL HOURS OF WORK...he looks crestfallen. ]

III. MIRROR, MIRROR

[ He's also experimenting with mirror magic, for some reason. Find Izuku in the residential quarters (still in the garden outside his house, or on the porch) playing with some hand mirrors, trying different incantations and sort of peering into them.

He frowns every so often, so whatever he's trying to do maybe isn't going too well? ]

WILDCARD

[ I'm open to any quests this month, and will also write unique starters for other quests or specific people if asked! I'll probably throw any other threads I need to do on this post as well. ]

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

[ Oliver nods. ]

Apparently the change can be to almost any kind of predatory mammal animal.

Are they all predatory, then? No, er...rabbits?

I mean... I don't think so, but... I may be wrong? Now that I think about it, I'm not sure.

[ He chuckles. ]

I'll ask in the next class.

I'm wondering if I might be able to sit in on those...I mean, I'm not, er, changing, but...I'd like to be able to help my housemates who are.

[ Specifically the one who won't GO to those classes. ]

I don't see why not? At the least you could ask them. The worst they can say is no, and then you can go look the information up, maybe.

I think I'll definitely try that...by the way, do you mind if I ask what drew you to this particular job?

[ Like, Izuku did it to learn more magic, but. ]

I am very good with my hands, and I used to carve symbols and letters on stone back home, as well as making my own arrows, so I decided why not do a job that I can lend some skill too.

Also, it lets me learn what all these runes mean, and have an idea what is going on when I see them.

Your own arrows? You do archery?

[ Is he from like the medeival ages or. ]

I do. Its a skill I picked up back home, and it comes in handy here, in this world where food is hunted down, rather than processed in factories.

[ He nods. ]

Maybe I should try to learn...but, um, I'm not sure I could handle skinning an animal or anything like that...

[ He might cry. ]

Its not fr everyone, but it is a useful skill to have, just in case. I could take you out, help you train up to try, if you want.

[ It would be good for Oliver to have something else to do as well. ]
