[ 1A. Knuckle Crack the Bone (Ethical Bones) ]
[ Well, at least his hoarding instinct can be put to good use. Since he favors skulls, giving up the smaller bones he typically collects is no problem. The problem is, though, that Berserker's methods are not what one would consider "ethical": the bones he collects tend to be from the animals he hunts for food.
He can be found just outside the bright wall, stripping meat from the carcass of what used to be a deer (mostly with his hands, a knife is utilized only when necessary). As the ribs are revealed, he breaks them off cleanly from the spine and sets them aside. His work is meticulous and it's all he's focused on...Seemingly, anyway. As he's being observed, he speaks without stopping his work. ]
If you want the bones, you're out of luck. Find your own.
[ 1B. Walk Me to the Graveyard (Ethical Bones pt. 2) ]
[ This time Berserker can be found further out of the city, armed with Gae Bolg (his spear) and ... a shovel? In his time spent outside of the city, he's located makeshift graves. What are graves full of? Bones. His methods may not be "ethical", but it's unlikely these bones will be missed.
Knee deep in a half-dug hole, he busies himself finding the bones beneath the loose earth. He carefully sifts through the dirt, leaving the bones he finds in a neat pile by the stone marking the grave. Again, his attention seems to be completely focused on his task until he hears something close. In an instant, Gae Bolg is in his hand, leveled at whatever made the noise. ]
What are you doing out here?
[ It might sound threatening if it weren't so apathetic. ]
[ 2. Setting Up Shop (City-wide Quest #2) ]
[ Of course Berserker's going to help Waver and Caster set up shop. He's grown quite fond (and protective) of Waver, partially due to them being Bonded to the same person. Caster...He owes a lot to Caster, too. This is the least he can do. He can be fond doing whatever requires the strength of a dragon, but mostly cleaning. Sweeping, mopping, scrubbing...
He does stop eventually, though, to take a break. He takes a seat in the corner where there's a number of bottles of ale: his gift of encouragement for those helping to get this place set up. As he settles in for a little rest, he opens up a bottle and takes a drink. Noticing someone nearby, he offers an unopened one. ]
If you want to take a rest for a moment, here.
[ 3. Small But Dangerous (Full moon) ]
[ Unlike last month, Berserker is conserving warmth by taking on his smaller form. About the size of a large housecat, it's much easier to keep warm when he's this small. He can mostly be found around familiar places, curled up on hearths in the shops or bars he frequents. He can be recognized in this form by the crimson scales beneath his eyes that mimic his tattoos.
If someone disturbs him, he pops his head up and hisses, baring his mouthful of sharp teeth. ]
I'm not a pet. Try that again and you'll regret it.
[ 4. Wildcard ]
[ These prompts not doing it for you? Did we plot something out? Drop me a starter or PM me here or on Discord (glitzkrieg#0673) and we can work something out! ]

[ And she gets not wanting to talk about it, too. People suck, and it's not just in this world.
She takes another drink from the bottle and hums slightly. ]
This stuff is pretty good.
no subject
[ It's where he works most permanently. Why pay more for stuff he's giving away? That and it's honestly not bad for being brewed in a bar with a reputation as questionable as it has. ]
... How do you know Caster, anyway?
[ He's curious. Caster's business is his own, so he normally doesn't care about it or pry as to who he knows or why someone knows him. His own connection to Caster is apparent in the fact that, aside from Berserker's tattoos facial tattoos and dragon parts, they look nearly identical. ]
no subject
[ The rose baths had been a godsend, and while she and Caster had initially eyed each other over and assessed threat levels, there were few things that got people to bond like talking about scars and giant lizard attacks.
Though now, thinking of how they met, Lex is suddenly very aware of Berserker's physical similarities to Caster. She wonders, idly, if the scars are the same. ]
We're Bonded.
no subject
So you know him well, then.
[ Or as well as Caster wants her to know him, more than likely. ]
no subject
In some ways, at least. [ Being psychically connected had its merits and drawbacks, after all. ] But honestly... I'm not that good with people.
no subject
no subject
[ Whether those people think it or not. She takes another sip of her drink, settling in her chair. ]
...you two have history. [ Seems obvious. She's not going to pry, but... there's definitely a question there. ]
no subject
[ Sarcasm delivered in a monotone. He knows someone would have to be blind to not recognize the similarities between himself and his lighter side, even as changed as he is. ]
You should ask Caster about me sometime.
[ Pass the buck because he doesn't want to explain it. ]
no subject
Should I ask you about him, then?
no subject
no subject
But nah. I don't know that I ever introduced myself to you though, did I?
no subject
[ Truthful, if a little harsh. As changed as he is, Berserker's still not very nice. ]
