Entry tags:
[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.

Pep talks are clearly not his forte. But Molly's sarcasm makes him crack a smile, a lopsided sort of thing. "I'd agree that it's unsettling, especially given the potential. I don't know that I like the potential of what it could make me."
It's also a little more honest than he would have preferred, but Molly had likewise revealed more than it seems he had meant. To the drinking comment though, Bucky just shrugs. "Is this a bad time to tell you that I don't drink alcohol?"
no subject
"You don't?" Bucky might not be big on pep talks, but what he says is enough that Molly doesn't feel inclined to keep pressing the matter- again, not a drinking conversation. Or a conversation-conversation since Bucky isn't a drinker, which strikes Molly as surprising. The only person he knew who didn't drink before he came here was Jester. "I'm beginning to think where I'm from, pub culture's more common than it is in other places. I don't meet a whole lot of people who swear off the stuff entirely."
