[Open] Irregular Mages Ahoy

[justice_is_blond]

WHO: Anders and Thor and You!
WHAT: Various adventures and misadventures
WHEN: Early to mid Bloomingtide
WHERE: Kirkwall
NOTES: Gonna put up some basic openings here first for either, then specific headers. Hit me up on plurk (Nadat) or Discord (Nadat#4647) if you'd like something for your dude!

Anders 1. The Clinic

There's a pause in the regular flow of traffic, enough that Anders is free to clean some of the slates leftover from an earlier class and straighten chairs and tables, moving steadily through the Clinic and greeting people by name or nod.

Anders 2. The Gallows Herb Garden

He's not alone as he tends to the plants and gathers a few sprigs of what the Infirmary's short on. Sprawled out in the sun, belly-up, is a tuxedo cat that's half-watching everything. A bit more active is a large orange fluff of a cat that's sneaking gathered herbs out of Anders' basket and piling them off to the side whenever Anders isn't looking.

Anders 3. Infirmary

He's here as usual, healing, providing potions and medical advice. Anyone dropping by gets seen to quickly, regardless of how he might feel about them. Any Rifters, though, get an additional question.

"Does your world have equality? Or some semblance of it?"

Thor 1. Tavern

Half the taverns in Kirkwall are closed to him, Tevinter, past conflicts, all that, but that just means that he's all the more happy this one is welcoming. Thor is loud and large and in a very good mood as he drinks his ale and chats with anyone who looks like they might tolerate a conversation.

In fact, if someone, some human or dwarf, is sitting alone, Thor will come over to their table, plop down, and order them a drink on him.

Thor 2. Lowtown

"It can't cost that much," Thor says to the shopkeeper, eyes a little narrow. He has a feeling the guy is trying to rob him... but Thor hasn't spent a lot of time handling day-to-day funds and expenses before. It's all been estate stuff that he signs off on. Haggling for a rather nice-looking cloak is a new challenge, and he finds himself glancing around to see if anyone will help weigh in on the topic.

Thor 3. Gallows

Evening is falling as Thor takes a guard post by the Gallows docks, leaning against a handy bit of wall and actively watching the people coming and going.

"Nearly curfew," he calls out to what looks like a Rifter considering getting on the boat. There's no heat to his voice. In fact, it sounds a little curious. He's wondering how the Rifters are taking the recent news and if it's chafing just yet.

Thor, 2

[summerfae]

Resa has no idea how much things are supposed to cost here. Even if she hadn't just recently fallen out of a hole in the sky, minor things like economics hadn't been her strong suit--not when taking things was a great deal easier. But what she does know is that this guy is 1) very cute and 2) in need of her help. So when he catches her eye, she barely stops to think about whether he's right or wrong.

What she does do is slide up to them, a charming smile on her face as she takes a few moments to appear to look closely over the cloak in question. Then she glances up at the shopkeeper, flashing a dazzling smile to him. "I think he's right, surely you could go down in price just a little bit? After all, if you keep the customer happy, he'll come back more often, and spend money here more often. It just makes sense, doesn't it?"

It's not the best argument that's ever been given for getting a discount, but the shopkeeper seems unable to argue with it, nevertheless. Slowly, he nods, and mutters his agreement, which makes Resa flash that dazzling grin at Thor in turn. "And there you go!" Amazing, what a little application of magical charm can do.

She is tiny. And adorable. Thor beams down at helpful woman as she successfully helps him get what he feels is a far better price. The shopkeeper's lack of satisfaction confirms it for him, and as soon as he's got the cloak in his possession Thor is holding out a hand.

"Thank you!" It had felt like magic was involved, but he had neither seen anything nor could he identify what had been used, which adds another point in her favor. "I am Thor of House Asgard. Will you join me for lunch? I would like to repay you for your assistance."

And find out more about the tiny possible mage. The hair probably means she's a Rifter, but he's found some of them to be good company. Writing them off as demons is far too easy... and far too Southern.
