in the dark I see you

[The southern city, late afternoon. Time doesn't change a place like this; it's as hedonistic and rough-and-tumble in parts as it ever was. And of course, the seedier places of the city thrive in the shadow of all that glitter and glam; a curious girl who grew up on stories might find herself enticed by that sort of place.

Which is why this particular raven has done exactly that. And for a fashion-conscious girl, she walks through the streets with the confidence of someone who fears nothing.

It's going to get her in trouble. Someone might want to intervene.]

[Someone really should pay better attention what she is doing. Namely if she's going to just kind of look like a target, she's going to get targeted. And before that snare can close completely -- after the catcalls and asking if she knows if she's lost or not but before anything physical occurs -- there's a sharp, shrill whistle.]

Not that one. That's bait.

[He can't be older than her. He might actually be younger than her; probably close enough to the same age, though. But that is a man who looks like he was born to help people make bad choices in low lights. Strangely, the thugs look kind of stymied.]

Really. You should have seen it by now.
nogooddecisions: (Another girl; another game.)

[personal profile] nogooddecisions 2016-08-27 08:31 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, not you. I know someone looking for a cheap thrill when I see one. These boys aren't going to satisfy you -- and I would really appreciate you not tipping the delicate balance I've been setting up here? It's like one of those ships in a bottle, only made of blockheaded criminals.

[They're watching him, but seem to be getting the idea they need to leave.]

Really, let her go on. You're not going to have fun with whatever she's got in mind, I promise. Shoo.
nogooddecisions: (And I don't feel if you don't.)

[personal profile] nogooddecisions 2016-08-27 08:43 am (UTC)(link)
I'm not, but if there's a guy who keeps telling you which horse to bet on, and he tells you, "not that one," are you going to punch that ticket? You might; you strike me as a contrarian, but those guys know they've got no chance if I say they don't.

[Yeah, those are out and out wings.]
nogooddecisions: (But I don't care if you don't.)

[personal profile] nogooddecisions 2016-08-27 08:55 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, quite the contrary. My father was cut from the darkest pits of places like this. It's in my blood, no matter what, so it's only best to own that. But that makes sense, doesn't it?

[In case she was wondering if they worked or not -- yes, he just extended them.]

Eagles hunt by diving down, snatching the things that they want.
nogooddecisions: (Another girl; another game.)

[personal profile] nogooddecisions 2016-08-27 09:11 am (UTC)(link)
That makes you the varistytär then, doesn't it? Curious, curious. I suppose this follows. As they say, fate conspires to bring people of quality together; real recognizes real.

[They fold back up.]

I suppose I should wish you good hunting, then?
nogooddecisions: (And I don't want it if you don't.)

[personal profile] nogooddecisions 2016-08-27 09:30 am (UTC)(link)
[Holy shit she could bounce a quarter off of that.]

Well, then. Where to, little crow?
nogooddecisions: (And I don't feel if you don't.)

[personal profile] nogooddecisions 2016-08-27 09:37 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, this is rich. Sure, sure. I could use a singular amusement here...

[She seem to have legitimately cracked him up some, there.]
nogooddecisions: (Laughing at the Christmas lights)

[personal profile] nogooddecisions 2016-08-27 09:46 am (UTC)(link)
Kiran. Do try to remember it this time, Marie~

[...Implying implications there, birdude. But he will continue to follow her through this place. He isn't phased by this bizarre walk.]

I am impressed with how direct you are, little crow. But for the sake of it... what is your aim in all of this?
nogooddecisions: (But it's just the same)

[personal profile] nogooddecisions 2016-08-27 10:12 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, no, it's lovely. Every shirt has to basically be built like an incredibly complicated scarf. I sometimes just go without them for that reason.

[WINGFLOOF. Just full extension.]

Go ahead. Make your considerations.

[He might have chirped a little when she got into finger preening them. Also ohgosh they're so soft. It is kind of insane. They are surprisingly large, though, given they're golden eagle wings scaled up to man sized to some extent.]

You and so many others would hope so, yes?

Oh yes, I can picture it now. First, losing the glasses because they're a distraction in flight. Then, outfits designed around two things; leaving only the most tantalizing bits to the imagination, and making sure they stayed that way under intense velocity. A tendency towards maniacal cackling. A fondness for crushing people under heel. And.... having a hard time with feelings, when someone realizes who you are underneath.

[He grins, looking up. He might actually have both wings and arms extended dramatically by the end of that.]

Am I right?
nogooddecisions: (Laughing at the Christmas lights)

[personal profile] nogooddecisions 2016-08-27 10:55 am (UTC)(link)
Not so much, actually. I've come to terms with the notion that legacy is important but not wholly consuming of my identity. I won't lie, though, it took some time. But moreover.

[He reaches out with a surprising speed and just snatches those glasses.]

It seems I was right about the glasses, at least.
