@forgottenluck liked for a Xillia anniversary starter!

It seemed fortune might have favored him that day.

Jude's intention had been to check on how things were in Nia Khera and the surrounding area. Ivar had been nowhere to be seen, so he assumed the former handmaid had decided to leave for parts unknown. That didn't mean the village deserved to be without someone checking to make sure everything was okay. It was as Jude was checking the forest that he spotted a familiar face. One he'd only encountered by chance when he'd stumbled into a realm he wasn't supposed to be in.

"It's you..." Jude smiled. He couldn't quite remember if they had actually introduced themselves when last they'd seen one another. That said, it still was good to see him. But what was he doing near Nia Khera?

"I didn't think I was going to see you again," Jude said. "What are you doing?" The same could have been asked of him, but Jude could explain himself in a moment.

"... Is there ... Something going on with sharks that I should be worried about? Why does Koun seem to be freaking out so badly...?"

Was Koun afraid of sharks? How interesting! Flynn always thought sharks were a little cute.... In a weird 'they look soulless' way.

@forgottenluck sent ❛  are you bleeding?  ❜

Shit. He hadn't even realized. Slowly, he looks down at his person to see the blood pouring out of the gash wound on his side. He blinks at it, he hadn't even felt it before now, but now that he sees it? It hurts and he can feel the dizziness hitting him from the blood loss he's experiencing.

"Hey.....would you look at that. Guess I am." Shit, he's gotta get this stitched up before he bleeds out here.

@forgottenluck liked for a small starter

"Oh hello! You must be new to Arendelle, welcome!", Anna chirped, bouncing slightly in place. After the gates were open and the kingdom was safe for it's cursed state, the young Queen was relieved to see that so many people still wished to venture here.

"So what's your business here, play or business? Hopefully it's play cause we've got a festival coming up that you would just love! Well maybe love, I mean I don't know you yet so many you're not the type and-you know what I'll just stop talking.", she laughed awkwardly. "I'm Queen Anna. And you are?"

"Huh. Thought you'd be taller...."

Zack paused, looking back over one shoulder, and then the other in an attempt to locate who the guy was speaking with. He wasn't going to assume that, just because it appeared his eyes were focused on him, that he was actually speaking with him. Sometimes perspective made things a little less clear than it maybe should.

There were people about, but none that were close enough to have drawn his greeting.

"Eh? Me?" He turned back to the stranger, gesturing to himself, positioning his hands on his hips. "I can honestly say I've never gotten that before. What can I do for you?"

@forgottenluck The wheel of fate chose... Eizen for your starter!

He had to be some kind of desperate to be looking for aid of this sort.

Well, quite frankly, Eizen was just that. The Reaper's Curse was a heavy burden to bear and had led to him hurting the one person he had sworn to protect. That same person now lived alone on the mountain home Eizen had made for the pair of them, and he scoured the land far and wide for ways to rid himself of his 'blessing.' So there he was, walking the unfamiliar path toward what he could only hope was some sort of salvation.

Truth be told, he wasn't even sure if this lead he'd found would work out like he hoped. Eizen only knew bits and pieces of this legend of sorts. Some sort of good fortune based god, that was said to hold dominion over a village. At least, that was what Eizen had gleaned from a book he'd found. To him, it sounded like maybe it was something akin to a malakhim. Or if it wasn't, a very powerful entity. Whether this being really could eliminate a pre-existing blessing of bad luck was up in the air. He just had to hope that, contrary to everything he'd known ever since figuring out what was causing bad things to happen to himself and his sister, he had a little bit of luck on his side.

As Eizen walked, he took note of the surrounding area. For a place that was supposed to house a village, it seemed rather quiet. Perhaps that was because the good luck entity kept away daemons, Eizen reasoned. It was either that, or the area was so sequestered that nothing could come to bring harm.

...Or perhaps there was no one left to fear for that sort of fate.

The farther Eizen walked, the more apparent it became that the village had suffered some sort of ill fate. There wasn't a soul present. Houses that once must have belonged to humans were empty and dilapidated. The village might as well have been completely forgotten by time.

Was he too late? Did the good luck entity even live here anymore? Eizen couldn't even blame this on his Reaper's Curse. Not really. Still, he'd come this far. If the luck god he'd read about did live there still, surely it couldn't hurt to try and find him. So he walked further, unmistakable blue eyes scanning everything in the immediate area as he moved, but he saw nothing that would prove who he sought even lingered there.

The blond malak couldn't stop himself from sinking to his knees. He should have been used to this despair by then, Eizen told himself. There couldn't be a cure all for the Reaper's Curse. Still, against his better judgment Eizen had gotten his hopes up. And for what?

"Damnit..." A shaky breath was drawn in. How was he supposed to go back to Edna like this? The curse still lingered. He'd only hurt her. All that was left was to just turn and leave. And yet...

One last desperate thought nagged at him. Just because he couldn't see this being didn't mean he wasn't there, right? What could it hurt?

"...I came all this way seeking the favor of fortune," Eizen said, trying to sound as determined as he could. "If you yet cling to these lands, answer. I don't know where else to go."

I need help.

(I know we haven't interacted i'm just....doing a bunch of these so that i can.....get ideas for my own LOL.....also not denying it's a posibility if we ever get to rping too so :D)

are you eden's type ? || no longer accepting

─「エデン」─  a stranger, how peculiar. the TRAILBLAZER couldn't help her gaze shifting between the paper in her hand towards the other person. there was something about him that she couldn't quite put her finger on. a sense of ... power ? he carried an aura unlike any she had encountered before. " two bingos. not bad. and you did check quite a few that'd prove positive in influence. "

                " the fact that you'd be willing to be a partner in crime or bail me out of trouble is particularly enticing, if anything. i wouldn't ask what sort of crime you are thinking about just yet. " the affectionate part was, of course, appreciative. and penchant for CONSTELLATIONS was always a plus. tucking the bingo sheet into her jacket, she held out a gloved hand towards him.

                " the name is eden, what do i call you, stranger ? and — would you like to join me for stargazing ? it's always better with company, after all. "

FIRST INTERACTIONS STARTER SENTENCES / Accepting!

@forgottenluck wanted a first encounter (and got Ninná): ❛ excuse me , i think you dropped this.❜ (first meeting thingy, whoever you think would fit best with my foxie)

His ears twitched slightly at the voice swiftly, clawed hands pawing at his makeshift satchel. Oh no! The small rip it once had, got even larger, and one of his vials of plant oils was missing. Swiftly swishing his head as he turned around to see the other. "Oh! My pine oil, thank you, sir!"

The foxlike youth came closer to take the small vial back, giving the man an appreciative smile but it was quickly replaced with a curious look. He openly sniffed the air as his tail swayed from side to side, tilting his head slightly. His presence felt oddly nostalgic despite never meeting this stranger before now; perhaps it was due to the fox-like similarities he had. Realizing he had become lost in thought for a brief second and perhaps even rude he apologized.

"Oh, I'm very sorry, sir--but yes, thank! Oh here, actually have this as my thanks you can have this. ." Going into his ripped satchel to pull out and offered another vial--this time of laurels.

◌・❀➵ It wasn't out of the ballpark of possibilities to run into people from other realms, after all, the angel did enjoy traveling. Rheairds made that such an easy task, yet she wasn't truly expecting to see the other. She had been engrossed in her observations of plant life that she hadn't registered his existence until he was practically looming over her, "Oh. Hello. I didn't expect you to be here. Out to admire nature as well?"

[ofstarsandskies]

Julius' attack on Lady Yukina is rewarded with the expected reaction from Lady Kaena. "It's my job," He's said this over a hundred times as Spirius' (former) Crown Agent. His threat as well, "And I'll do so again regardless of who tries to stop me."

On the opposite spectrum, Koun isn't on the offensive. He stares at them--moreso Ludger as he explains their intrusion's purpose. Whether or not Koun believed Ludger's story, he doesn't treat them as threats; he instead asks them to sit back down by offering drinks and ordering Lady Kaena to fetch a meal as well. What kinds of questions he wanted to ask, alas he can't be sure. But if talking saves them an unnecessary confrontation, he'll obey and sit down. Ludger joins him right after.

Koun's first question also answers one of Ludger's: why'd he choose to contact them? He detected the Prime Koun's scent and wanted to know how it got there despite them being strangers. "Um... Well, we--" Ludger grapples with words until his brother puts a hand on his shoulder to signal he'll handle it.

"What you're smelling is the Koun of our dimension," Julius can feel Ludger asking what the hell he's doing, yet he presses on. "He currently lives with us as part of his pact with my brother. And until we destroy the Divergence Catalyst inside Lady Yukina, we're unable to return home where he's waiting. So you see why we're pressed for time--"

"Brother, STOP!" Ludger shouts over his brother, though his attempt to shove him aside is thwarted by Julius grabbing his wrist. "I know I ask you to be more honest, but this isn't what I meant! You're making it sound like we're hostages!"

"Yelling over me doesn't change facts, Ludger," Julius continues in his usual calm, neutral tone. "Each minute we're in this dimension could be seconds to decades back home. We found our objective and our cover's blown; our time acting as innocent bystanders is over."

Ludger clams up-- his brother always finds a way to frame things in a way to shut down dissension.

Everything seemed to happen all at once. With the oppressive weight of cold gone, Koun was able to get his bearings again....but those were thrown to the side as his guests attacked.

Kaena was instantly on edge, a screech coming from her as she stumbled to her feet and held her broom as a weapon, brandishing it at Julius. Sure it wasn't much, but it was all she had.

"How dare you raise a hand against Yukina-sama!"

A small detail that might go unnoticed was that she was no longer standing in front of Koun. But that was possibly because Koun was standing now, eyeing the two in front of him with an unreadable expression.

He listened carefully to their words, eyes holding flecks of gold, but not fully golden. Silently gauging their words, their reactions. Going over what they were saying in his head.

Did they really think they could lie to a fox? But what on earth could be their reasons? Yukina was sick? That was utter nonsense...

Unexpectedly, Koun turned, and moved off to the side, busying himself with something at a cupboard nearby. Kaena's single hand tightened slightly on her impromptu weapon, but then Koun was back, setting down some teacups in front of the brothers.

"K-Koun-sama.....what--" Kaena seemed confused, her broom lowering slightly.

"I have questions for them." Contrary to how his tone had been when they'd met, now it was stilted.

"They just attacked Yukina-sama! They could attack you!"

At those words, Koun just merely gave his shrine maiden a haunting smile. A smile that spoke that....he didn't care if that was what happened. For the first time, a 'tch' left Kaena, and she lowered the broom.

"....Why don't you get us some snacks, Kaena?" Koun's words were gentle yet melancholy. It took a moment, but the girl bowed and muttered 'As you wish' as she left the room.

The melancholy expression didn't leave Koun's face as he turned to the brothers, humming under his breath for a moment as he poured the two of them some tea.

"So." He started with, watching them with half lidded grey eyes. "....why do you two smell like me?"

[tenebriism]

He's just gonna pick up Malon by her stomach, holding her at his side. "You said something about picking up?"

" . . . . . " He gets NOTHING from her for several minutes, and thank goodness he can't see her face from this angle; it would give him EVERYTHING he needed as proof, even without her speaking. " I said . . . n-nothin' of the sort, Koun. "
