[Everyone might be nice here that he could tell, but he's never gonna be entirely comfortable living in a place without his own special brand of protection around it.

The shops thankfully have what he needs and he sets himself up near the fountain in the square, a multitude of coloured threads wrapped around his fingers in some kind of pattern only understood to himself.

Every so often he pauses and lets a dab of power run through them, weaving the spell along with the threads.]

[Um. What.]

Was there an arts an' crafts fair an' no one told me?

What are ya makin', a pot holder?

[Seriously, dude. What.]

[She cocks her hip and answers with a smirk.] Do ya want me ta answer that?

[And an arch of the eyebrows.]

Your security system looks like a friendship bracelet.

[Just. You know. Saying.]

Yes, I won top marks in Miss Adeladie's Charm School of Charlotte.

[This is a lie. FYI. She even emphasizes it with a roll of her eyes.]

An' if you were goin' around wearing something sleek and metallic with flashin' red lights, I'd wonder which prison truck you escaped from. So. [A quick grin.] Point.

[Rogue hesitated.]

I shake your hand, your friendship bracelet's not gonna snake out an' bite me, is it?

This is Luceti, sugah.

[She extends her gloved hand and takes his.]

It never hurts ta check.
touchofrogue: (Aww shucks | Hair Tuck With a Smile)

[personal profile] touchofrogue 2012-10-05 06:28 am (UTC)(link)
That sounds - useful. Lemme guess - magic?
touchofrogue: (Smirky McSmirkerston)

[personal profile] touchofrogue 2012-10-05 03:14 pm (UTC)(link)
That's - quite a line of business.

[If they were back home, Rogue would think you were full of it. As it is, Rogue only thinks you're about twenty percent full of it. Habit, you know.]

[Confidence bordering on was a different kind of 'it,' and she could smell it on him - which was fine, she was kind of used to that. The twenty percent of the OTHER kind of it was where she doubted the existence of such things entirely.

Though possession... that drew her face into sober, guarded lines.]


I can think of a few things... [She shook her head.] But not many.

That's life, right?

[At least it seems to be hers.]

[personal profile] touchofrogue 2012-10-06 02:25 am (UTC)(link)
[Rogue smirks and speaks without thinking.]

Don't ya think you should buy me dinner before ya start tellin' me your life history?

[personal profile] thefirstbionicsoldier 2012-10-05 05:12 pm (UTC)(link)
Knitting is a respectable pastime, I guess. [Just teasing. He figures you can take it.] Whatever gives you your jollies.

[personal profile] thefirstbionicsoldier 2012-10-05 05:31 pm (UTC)(link)
Just like ma used to make.

[He snorts softly, goodnaturedly.]

...Appreciate the offer, but I think I'll stick with my jacket.

[personal profile] thefirstbionicsoldier 2012-10-05 09:39 pm (UTC)(link)
[Were those threads glowing? Maybe if he took off his shades more often he'd see things more clearly.]

...Never knew glow-in-the-dark sweaters were a thing. Learn something new every day.

[As for the question:]

Sure you don't need me to figure something out - aren't you the creative one?

[He can think of a number of terrifying things, thanks, but doesn't really understand what this is for.]
bionically: (Default)

[personal profile] bionically 2012-10-06 06:27 am (UTC)(link)
...Sure.

I'll tell you what's terrifying. Forgetting where you parked your car in a jammed parking lot larger than a football field.

[Some would argue that's more annoying as fuck than anything else, but anyway, it's not his intentions to go grim on this guy with war stories, and right from the start.]

[personal profile] thefirstbionicsoldier 2012-10-06 08:45 pm (UTC)(link)
I'd tell you I'm glad to help, but I have no idea what my input is going towards. Call it a hunch, but it doesn't seem like the kind of thing that would inspire a knit pattern.

[personal profile] thefirstbionicsoldier 2012-10-09 09:34 pm (UTC)(link)
[He's not following.]

From what I can tell, this place seems pretty safe for the most part when the Malnosso aren't screwing around at their control panel. [Then, with a lighter, joking tone:] Who'd you piss off?
quicktoanger: (Neutral)

OBLIGATORY

I barely even noticed him, aside from the odd tangle of thread on his fingers. Hell, I've seen weirder stuff than that around here.

It wasn't until I saw him touch the threads and felt the prickle of magic that I took a second look.

"What was that?"
quicktoanger: (Amused)

[personal profile] quicktoanger 2012-10-05 05:35 pm (UTC)(link)
"Heh. Wish I was that lucky. All my stuff takes months to enchant and is a fantastic pain in the ass."
quicktoanger: (Default)

[personal profile] quicktoanger 2012-10-05 06:03 pm (UTC)(link)
"Heh. Yeah, fireballs I can do no problem. Actually, I'm not bad at shields, either, if I have a focus. It's the delicate stuff I'm bad at."
lostinmyway: (Oh my isn't this lovely?)

[On her way back from tending the Memory Garden, Grune notices someone she hasn't met before by the fountain, doing...hmm. What is he doing?

When she gets a little closer and notices all the threads spun between his fingers, she exclaims:]
Oh, my, that's so pretty!
