Who: a draconic thief and you!
When: i'm flexible with the days as long as it's after the full moon! diy!
Where: a dragon's underground den.
What: an open log for those signing up for the city-wide wanted quest!
Warnings: will add as they come! a note that eren will not attack anyone unless they steal from him— which, if you want to go that route, by all means hmu for plot!
ᴏᴏᴏ ʜᴇ's sᴛᴇᴀʟɪɴ!!!!!
[ past the constraints of the bright wall and just before the wilde creeps into fresh plains, slums and farmlands with its frosty winter nip, lays a hole; a hole that seems too large to have been dug by a rabbit and can easily fit man or monster. if one has followed the incredible amount of scattered shedding (black scales with a scarlet-plum sheen, perhaps orange or gold depending on how light bounces from it), it leads them further down. many elders are sure to give tips if you ask: flattery will help you if you talk of liberty, bring something else that's sharp, that'll do it, i would bribe him with one of those fair-folk, haha, and perhaps oh, send him my cookies. whether either of those work or not, it needs to be tested!
the tunnels are identical to those made by miners, twisting and turning into different, multiple paths, some leading into scorched dead ends while others may only seem to take you lower . . . and lower, into more intricate corkscrew bends. some spots aren't all that dark, lit by runes carefully carved and enchanted to glow a deep orange, but those with less of a knack for seeing in dark places might do well with an extra source of light, no harm done. if successfully navigated, intruders will find an opening that spans into a large, large den, one expected to be the interior of a mountainside. the cavern is impressive in size and sculpted entirely by claw, molded by spine and reinforced with dragon flame. the ceilings are high and the floors— that might be a problem.
the floors harbor an ocean of sharp objects that create mountains, piling up to nearly half the wall of the entire dome— heaps of any kind of knife, long blade, spear, needle, gardening and construction tools, broken glass, ceramic and . . . that's a piece of paper, yes. anything that has a fine, dangerous cutting or stabbing point is hoarded here, the product of a monster's growth of over a year (and counting). the dragon, though, the dragon may not be instantly seen unless one looks so very hard for two pairs of glistening, crystal-blue horns protruding out of the mass— or, perhaps, you'll want to play it safe and look for the obsidian knives in a literal haystack of knives. ]

no subject
grumble, but not entirely a no. proceed. ]
no subject
Best pastries you're gonna try, believe me.
no subject
he has a mouth, and the mouth slowly hangs open with an expectant gaze. yes. feed him. make sure he doesn’t lose a single crumb. he hungers. ]
no subject
What Nero doesn't expect is that this hulking creature wants to be fed. ]
Uh...
[ Welp.
Still...not the strangest thing he's done. ]
Yeah. Open 'em up wide.
[ Like he couldn't just dump the whole batch in at once, Nero instead pulls out a single muffin and tosses it over like a corn throw into the dragon's mouth. ]
no subject
he's even widened his mouth for you! ]
no subject
Oh.
[ Well...whole bag it is, then? ]
Right. Here ya go--
[ He tosses one, two, three--four in a row, but the fifth one is just a little too wide. Eren could probably catch it if he tries to, though. Looks like the sixth is following it. ]
no subject
They're good. [ very. very good! congrats! and now for your prize! ] You can have your blade back, or you can take back one obsidian knife. Your choice.
[ but not both. he's being lenient. let the negotiation begin. ]
no subject
But...but not now. Right now that dragon could absolutely make a meal out of him if he wanted to. And he might, though Nero doesn't think he'll be as tasty as muffins.
So...
Sorry quest dude. The only horse Nero has in this race is his own. ]
Red Queen and I have been together too long to abandon her now.
[ He points at his sword. ]
no subject
god damn it, the sword gets so neatly presented even if he’s cringing inside and wants to throw something at him. ]
When you’re my size, [ he says, almost begrudgingly as the red queen is taken from his draconic palms, ] I’ll fight you for it.
