.001 | Mostly Open
Who: Piper and mostly Open!
When: Throughout the month
Where: Throughout the city
What: Influence Threads! General interactions.
Warnings: Nah
For Jason
[ It would not be unjust to say that Piper McLean has a personal vendetta against cold weather. Having a snow goddess freeze your boyfriend right in front of you while her creepy brother talks about how you’ll get used to him and what an excellent kisser he is could do that to a girl. With her thin California blood already shivering in sympathy for the landen who were so desperate to get repairs on their houses that they shot a councilwoman, Piper is glad to volunteer to help make heating spells and witchlights. Even if the Ebon Council is organizing this, which is… strange to her. Why this, why not move to rebuild the houses instead? It seems like slapping a bandaid on, but she supposes a bandaid is better than nothing.
And anyway, this is good practice with the craft. And if she and Jason happen to see a few houses out there that they can try to help patch up so the heat doesn’t just evaporate while they’re at it, well, she’s willing to try.
As it is, so far the landen they’ve seen haven’t exactly been friendly when approached, more startled than anything, but so far they’ve been able to put heating spells and witchlights in several houses. All the same, Piper is kind of glad she’s not walking these streets alone.
B. Shock it to Me
[ Look. Piper is a vegetarian. Has been since she passed a slaughterhouse on a road trip and smelled what was happening. But this is the first time she’s gotten up close and personal with the animals she is no longer eating.
Cows… are big.
But even though she feels a little hypocritical leading them back to their fates… it’s not like it’s going to be much better for them out there. Feel free to find her either 1) trying to catch a cow, 2) petting one now that she’s caught it, 3) humming under her breath and walking back to the gates… several cows are following her. Her Opal jewel is active, if hidden. It is just… easier this way. ]
C. General
[ For the first three weeks, Piper can be found living in the Queen’s Residence, eating porridge, going to the training sessions, except not exactly in that order. She’ll be very curious about meeting the other Strangers and the members of Fayura’s court, so it’d be very easy to strike up a conversation during breakfast, or in the halls, and if she sees you, she’ll greet you.
After a while, she decides against getting her own place and goes to move in with the boys. It’s just… better that way. There’s not much at all to pack up, and this inspires her to head to the Old Town Bazar to find some clothing so she doesn’t have to keep doing laundry every day. The clothing, although fine, is expensive. She won’t be getting a stipend after she moves out, and has no idea what she can do to earn any money, so she heads to the River North. She’s surprised that the cloth in the landen district is actually of better quality, and less expensive. That doesn’t stop her from shamelessly haggling in order to try and get a better price, although she won’t use her power to do so. Feel free to come upon her while shopping in either place -- or even helping out a shopkeeper in exchange for being able to walk away with an extra pair of pants. ]
