CHARACTERS: Riza Hawkeye, open
DATE: over the span of the week after the storm
WARNINGS: talk of dead bodies, will update with anything else
SUMMARY: general prompts!
I - INVESTIGATION
(ooc: Riza would have made a network post about offering to teach people basic martial arts and how to use a gun in self-defense in the wake of everyone's magic being MIA but I ain't got time for that so feel free to handwave that your character learned about it there. Or just have them randomly show up, that's also okay. If you wanna do something else, shoot me a PM or pp me at
speedforce and we'll chat! Or just leave me a starter, I'm easy like Sunday morning.)
DATE: over the span of the week after the storm
WARNINGS: talk of dead bodies, will update with anything else
SUMMARY: general prompts!
I - INVESTIGATION
[As if sliced open dead bodies weren't bad enough, there's talk of sacrifice and worship to go along with them, whispers given credence by the offerings appearing all over town. Some are mundane and nearly missed, others are so obvious she can't help but stop and inspect.II - WELCOME TO THE GUN SHOW
Her fingers reach out, following the path of the elaborate seashells circles carefully placed in the dirt. Like and yet unlike the all too common alchemical circles from home. A thought strikes her, shivers down her spine and freezes her fingers in place.]
No....
[There's no way it could be such a thing, could there?]
[The offer's a long time coming but necessary (to her) in the wake of magic rapidly seeping from the land - and the Nalawi slowly losing their grip on rational thought as a result. Away from the main village she sets up a temporary base of operations, though it's nothing more than a few well-placed coconuts and an old torn sheet with a target drawn across in dirt.III - OBLIGATORY DOGE PROMPT (TWO DOGE FOR THE $$$ OF ONE)
As for Riza herself, she sits with a small box open next to her, giving the gun her one hand one last good polish. Faint circles color the skin underneath her eyes but her posture is straight as ever when she unfolds and stands up, chin lifted and shoulders parallel with the ground.]
Ready?
[Her tone is all business, matching the hard glint in her eyes. Hayate sits with his tail curled around him at the base of a nearby tree, dark eyes watchful for unwelcome passersby.]
[Even ash-filled skies part ever so often to let in a few momentary rays of sunshine and the same goes for Riza's mood - mostly dark but peppered occasionally by bright moments, most often brought about by a pair of four-footed furballs.
Sieglinde might be missing but Isengrim certainly isn't, and Riza's hardly about to leave him without spending at least some time in his company whenever he elects to appear. (Fend for himself he might be perfectly capable of, but he'll get no love from any of the Nalawi in their current state.) Hayate seems glad for the company too, and the sight of the two playing with each other is enough to bring a smile to her face.
Isengrim bounds up, tongue lolling out of his mouth, and she leans forward to give the large skulldog a few scratches behind one ear.]
