[Open] July quests
Who: Fang and Open!
When: Any time between 7/3-7/13
Where: Aristocratic district, and outside the city
What: Quests: Pickpockets, and Cartography/Lucky Ingredients (stellar bear hunting)
Warnings: none yet
I. Thick as Thieves - Aristocratic District
["They're not human," the ad had said. If it weren't for the constant snowfall plaguing the district, the mystery thieves might have been easy to catch. Hell, they might still be. They're so amateur it hurts.]
[Fang hadn't expected to be loitering around, shoveling snow off the walkways for a bunch of stuck-up pricks, but sometimes, the snowfall wasn't heavy enough and some careless footprints needed erasing. Hope you weren't investigating that trail.]
[Or maybe you did question one of the pranksters, but they insisted it couldn't be them. How could it be? The monster lady had been showing him and his friends a mirrorbound-world game. Or they were in a snow fight, just ask the monster lady that got caught in the cross-fire. Or—]
[You get the idea. They were conveniently around the "monster lady" at the time of the crime.]
II. Multi-tasking
Ooh, I was hopin' we'd see one of these.
[Fang keeps her voice low, but doesn't bother masking the excitement in it. She crouches largely behind a fallen log, looking down at a clearing below the ridge she's on.]
[A stellar bear forages below—a long, lean creature with glowing dots tracing the constellations of this new world along its hide. The creature looked deceptively small, on all fours like that; maybe no taller than a wolf. The wildlife of Gran Pulse, the behemoths in particular, taught Fang not to underestimate it. Its limbs might be lanky, but they hid power beneath the shaggy coat, and when it stood up, it'd probably dwarf a person.]
There's some real claws on that thing. We should give it a go, while Melv's busy mappin' that last part.

No, no, it's... It's fine. Like I said, I have friends. One of them is in the Coven infirmary right now, and could use my support.
no subject
The infirmary? What for?
no subject
[ But that really wasn't the issue here. Ursula knew. Fang was sincerely worried about Ursula being able to handle herself now that they were bonded, facing a lengthy period apart. She sighed, shaking her head. ]
I... I didn't mean to make you worry. This is all just... new to me. I was fine being on my own for most of my life, and now it suddenly feels... not as fine. But I'll adjust. I promise.
no subject
[Which was easy for her to say, considering Fang only bore a single ounce of shame in her body, and that ounce was usually on vacation.] If you're ever havin' a rough time of it, I'm not gonna brush you off.
[Fang tilted her head, smiling slightly, and gently poked Ursula's forehead with a knuckle.] But if you've got friends for the job, that's fine too.
no subject
Just... don't stay out there too long, I guess. Come back every few days or so. Sound like a fair compromise?
no subject
I can live with that. Not like I'm headin' out now, anyways.
[Which reminded her... Fang fought a shiver again, emptying the thermos.] Moons're gonna hit me tonight or tomorrow. Not sure what time all that starts. Figured it'd be good to have you around 'til I'm sure exactly how many screws I'm gonna have loose.
no subject
I'll be there with you through every bit of it.
no subject
[Fang passed the thermos back, rolling a shoulder.] I'm gonna go warm up in those springs before the sun sets—my back's killin' me after all that damn shovel work. I'll be back at your place by evening, 'kay?
no subject
I'll have dinner ready for you when you get there. Something nice and meaty.
no subject
Listen to you, thinkin' ahead like that. [The monster part of her was actually pretty stoked about that. Fang chuckled, pulling her cloak around her and starting towards the baths.] Looking forward to it.
