12th Throw - [ action ]

December 18th:

[Clove can be found in the village. She looks older than she usually does. Nineteen or maybe twenty to her usual sixteen. She's grown just a couple inches, and she wears her hair up, rather than back. Her skin is flawless, none of the sun damage or minor scarring she usually has. She also seems, in general, much more serene.

She goes to the bakery to get some fresh bread and a small apple tart for herself.

Then, it's the clothing store to pick out a dress. All she wants is something simple but warm. A couple of heavy coats, too.

Before her errands are done, she lingers in the item shop where a few stuffed toys with red and green ribbons have appeared. She picks up a bear the size of a small child and just looks at it a few moments before putting it back. But she hesitates.

Maybe, just for the hope... Maybe she ought to get it.]


December 19th:

[That stupid bear is in her apartment now. She wants to shred it into a thousand pieces. Burn it. She hates it. She hates the lie it stands for.

Another hi-jacking. Another false life. The same one she'd known before. And Cato still thinks it's true. She played the calmed wife and mother when she left, kissing him sweetly and promising to be back before long.

Then off came the long coat, abandoned in the hallway of the apartment. She's dressed like a tribute again and immediately goes into the forest, looking for a hunt or a fight. She doesn't care which. Something to give her an outlet for aggression rather than tears.

Late in the evening, she finally wanders back to the village and goes to the fountain, using its cold water to clean up the sweat and dirt on her face before she goes home and has to act like she doesn't know what really happens to her and Cato, like being sixteen again is some sort of shift and not reality.]



(Clove from both her Victor!AU for a mallynap effect and then after it's worn off. Feel free to run into her anywhere either or both days!)
rashness: (Clean for a year)

[...Wha-] Oi, oi girl, don't unzip out here! That's cold, and it's indecent. [Or so he assumes. He doesn't really look that closely, instead looking away because of his own assumptions, waving a hand in her direction]
rashness: (Free and Dream)

[personal profile] rashness 2012-12-22 03:56 am (UTC)(link)
We... well it's still gotta be more cold, so just keep it zipped. Come on. [He only... sort of looked. Assumptions and the dignity of the girl in front of him in mind and all. He in fact had a hand over his eye - a little- when he glanced back at her, but when he saw what it was it lowered quick enough]
rashness: (Basho...)

[personal profile] rashness 2012-12-22 04:06 am (UTC)(link)
Oh huh, so that's how you do it? I've always wondered how ninja and stuff do that sort of thing. Me, I need to unroll my sword each time. [He sort of shifts the thing on his shoulder, which is his sword all wrapped up in a bundle with a strap on it]
rashness: (Serenity Fires)

[personal profile] rashness 2012-12-22 05:05 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, you throw 'em? That's a neat way to do it. [He glances at her again, and her arms]
rashness: (Cool Guys)

[personal profile] rashness 2012-12-22 05:09 am (UTC)(link)
[There's a slight visible flinch at someone his own age saying "kill," but he resists that, and nods. Focusing instead on... well, the distance thing] Yeah, definitely. Like Eyebrows's a Tamer, or how Koneko's an Aria. None of 'em are up front like me.

[...Well shiemi is destpite being a Tamer. But the principle stands]
rashness: (Spirit Inspiration)

[personal profile] rashness 2012-12-22 05:16 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, uh, meisters for exorcists, like me. [He shrugs, his tail shifting with him. He's totally keeping this girl] After getting your face wet, you gotta be cold - if we're gonna keep talking, are you sure you don't want to step in somewhere?
rashness: (Methods of keeping--)

[personal profile] rashness 2012-12-22 05:31 am (UTC)(link)
Sure. [And he motions - he was just heading to the grocery, there's only really a short walk there from the fountain, and with a nod he glances over his shoulder at her.

(in addition to tail there's also lightly pointed ears and lightly over-long canines, but those are way more subtle, but to put them on the record)]


Exorcists are people who save other people from demons. [...] Err, do you know what demons are?
rashness: (And that day was hot)

[personal profile] rashness 2012-12-22 05:51 am (UTC)(link)
Right, uh... Okay, in my world, there's like two worlds on top of each other. One of them's Assiah, and that's the one humans live on, and animals and all the other people. [He has gotten way too used to explaining this...] The other one's Gehenna, and that's where demons are from. Assiah's normal and stuff, but Gehenna's twisted and... well, pretty much evil. So the demons who come out of it, for the most part, are evil. They want to torment and kill and generally just mess with humans when they slip on into our world.
rashness: ("Now" your ally)

[personal profile] rashness 2012-12-31 01:24 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, basically. And someone's gotta protect people from them. That's us exorcists.

[And with a sage nod, he now holds the door of the grocery open for her]
