#[ mIHR IS SO AWKWARD ]

Day 11: Truce

(vaguely inspired by that headcanon I shared a few weeks back; prompt from @oc-growth-and-development 2021 OCtober list. I know I’m skipping around but I’ll take the inspiration when it strikes and fill in the rest when I get time ^.^;;)

It started small, so very small. Mihre had their hands full keeping over-eager buds in line, and one slipped outside their control for just a few minutes. They found the missing floran with a screech and a crash, and the guilty party scrambled back to Mihre’s side, pursued by two angry crasberries. After pacifying the crustaceans, Mihre dragged a confession out: Nat had dared Belli to sneak into the hylotl boss’s room and take a treasure as proof. Which would have been fine (they were here on reconnaissance, after all, this happened all the time) if Belli hadn’t knocked the boss’s prize bonsai off her desk. Frustrated, and muttering about dang sprouts and their whims, Mihre sent the rookies home to report on the actual successful parts of the mission, while they went to survey the damage. 

It was hopeless, they realized from the start. The pottery could be repaired quickly, and Mihre did just that, but the fall had dislodged the wires from one side and cracked two branches. The poor plant… Not much they could do to hide that. Cursing reckless youths with even more enthusiasm, Mihre twisted the wires back into place as best they could, supporting the broken branches, and scrambled for the exit before the boss could catch them. Rookies causing havoc was one thing. Getting caught fixing the havoc would be just embarrassing. 

Then they went straight to Marcy’s library and borrowed three books on hylotl gardening techniques. 

Tensions mounted for the next few days. One of the rookies had to be fished out of the bay. They were alright after a good bath, but their joints creaked with salt for weeks. A group of sprouts got spooked by a flash mob at their school; the bubbstep was loud enough to rattle the mayor’s windows two streets over. That got it shut down fast; the floran and hylotl gangs could brawl all they wanted, but stars forbid they bothered the politicians. The whole bramble was raring for revenge, kept in check only by Greenfinger Akhi’s insistence that they needed to plan this proper before someone else got dunked. 

Now, the Greenfinger needed a plan, before their more reckless underlings realized this excuse was just buying time. They knew where to go: this had started after that blasted scouting mission. “Mihre!” they called, pounding at their lieutenant��s door. “Mihre, thorns take it, this is a fine stew your party caused.” 

“Hush.” Something soft hit the door. Probably a pillow.

Akhi fumed. “Don’t hush me. Get your carapace out here. I cannot fix this alone.”

Something rustled. “Resssearching. Go away.”

“Researching what?” They could feel their petals bristle. What kind of answer was that? “We do not have time for research. It’s a mess out here!” 

“I know. Fixing it.” 

Frustrated, but resigned, Akhi retreated to their office. At least they had gotten an acknowledgement. No one else would have gotten this much patience out of the stressed Greenfinger, but Mihre was their best sniper. And they did have a knack for fixing problems. Even if the solutions were weird sometimes. 

Mihre left the warren after dark and snuck along to the grey-market. No one was quite sure where the name came from, but it was a good place to get goods that were technically legal, and Mihre liked that. Great place for guilty pleasures and midnight snacks. They weren’t here for that this time, though, even if it hurt their soul to pass the pozest stand by. No, they wanted something specific this time. The hylotl manning the register gave them a weird look, but no one ever asked questions in the grey market. 

What Mihre hadn’t expected was that the boss had the same idea. Their hands closed on the pot at the exact same time. 

“Well. This iss awkward.”

“Yes, quite.” 

“Could talk. I know a place.” 

“What a coincidence. So do I.”

The cashier wilted under their combined stares, and stammered out the address of a third option nearby. 

It was one thing to meet the tiny but terrifying hylotl Matriarch in her hideout, flanked by a dozen bodyguards she did not need, staring down even the fiercest of intruders without a blink. It was another entirely to share a plate of waffles with her at 3 a.m. in a seedy little food shack on the other side of town. She had good taste, in Mihre’s professional opinion; they requested a second bottle of syrup, and watched her demolish the improv breakfast with unconcealed fascination. She was also a shrewd negotiator, but Mihre had come prepared. They countered with an offer she just couldn’t refuse. 

Greenfinger Akhi knew better than to ask Mihre why the ambushes stopped so fast, or why the sniper kept vanishing every other week. They could guess all they wanted; Mihre would share if they wanted to share, and it meant Akhi didn’t want to know if they didn’t. The bramble had their share of mutterings about the sudden quiet. A few even met with forbidden contacts over in the shoal. But none of their hylotl counterparts knew much, either. Just that the boss had “urgent work” every other week or so. And that there was now a second bonsai on her desk.
