[OPEN] you can change the darkness in the broad daylight

Who: Molly and various
When: Throughout May
Where: ~Various places~
What: Open influence prompts, plus any and all planned meet-ups and shenanigans.
Warnings: Self-harm for any fighting threads because of Molly's stupid powers, otherwise I'll keep you updated.
Other: The influence prompts are OPEN TO ALL, but if you want a specific casual meet-up, you can post a wildcard top-level here or get in touch with me via PM or plurk and I'll put up something specific for you!



i. PALATE CLEANSER

Molly is so disdainful of the Black Widows that he's absolutely fine with taking this job. "Leave places better than you found them," he always says- well the Black Widows sure did their part in making them worse. The truth of the matter is Molly is still not used to the finer details of this kind of magic, even with as dark a Jewel as he has. The cleansing webs he gets the hang of easily, but the trap webs keep tripping him up.

Fortunately, he's not the only one doing the work. "They make this look so bloody easy, don't they?"


ii. TRADE WARS

At the moment, the mercenaries are playing nicely, and Molly watches from his position sitting on top of one of the poles spaced along the dock and tied off with rope to keep people from falling off the damn thing. Every time one of the groups starts to eye each other like they're about to fight, he throws in a cheerful comment or a teasing insult and their attention diverts back to him. It's luck that they haven't just tried to attack him and some of the guards are exasperated by his attempt at "helping" but... No fights have started since he's been there distracting them.

Yet.

He has his swords and his Jewel if that changes, but for now giving them a target to be pissy at that isn't each other is a little more useful and involves less bleeding on the docks.


iii. STREET RATS

Of course he's sympathetic to the people starving in the slums. Molly would be doing this even if he wasn't being asked. He's not wanting for food after all, and he gets along better with the poorer sort having lived with the downtrodden who found joy in the world through the circus.

You can find him doing one of two things here:

(1. Sharing food and entertaining the children with card tricks.

(2. Fighting off the rats with a kind of bored air that says that this is more irritating than fun, but necessary. Their functional ecosystem is making other people sick. Away with you, rats.


iv. RUMOR HAS IT

Molly is entranced by stories from farther reaches that aren't available to him now, so of course he's going to do some heavy lifting- well... not really. He's not very strong, but he does what he can and has probably dragged someone more fit along to help him, whether it be friend or stranger lured with the promise of drink.

"This isn't such a bad way to spend an afternoon, is it?" Says Molly, who is carting the bare minimum, while his associate deals with heavier loads. Look, you're getting free drinks out of it, and he is built for speed and grace, not lifting.

Not looking forward to that. Cleanup's always the worst, and this'll be even worse than normal.

[If she weren't Mordred, she'd be dreading it, but since she is, she's just pissed off about the whole thing.]

I don't really want to deal with that crap anymore than I have to either, but somebody's got to do it.

Yeah, every freaking time, it sets someone else off. Don't get me wrong, my kingdom had a bunch of problems too, but you didn't have crap like this happening all the time.

[At least not until the end, then there was all sorts of crap happening that kept Camelot from functioning.]

So I've got no clue how this place functions when everything sets off everyone else and everything you do to try and fix it just pisses someone else off.
arrogator: (no one saying do this)

[personal profile] arrogator 2019-06-01 03:49 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, here's to it.

[She'll raise her now empty glass and then decide to order another one.]

Here's to her and the rest of us, trying our best while everyone else does the opposite.

[She knows they're sort of trying their best too, but a lot of the townspeople's best sucks in Mordred's opinion.]

Of course, I didn't mind the expectations and all that, but this place is a hell of a lot harder to deal with than being a knight was.
