#si: in a sea of doubt | marian

kireek! if marian had (nonpermanent, washable) markers or paint to draw something on you, what would you want to be drawn on (or what would you hate the least) (^w^)/

KIREEK: "That's a question I've never heard before. I guess the most unobtrusive would be some kind of design or symbol, one that wouldn't look out of place next to my Section ID. Marian isn't the type to draw aimlessly, though, they always have a plan behind it... how inconvenient."

MARIAN: "Hah! Friend, you speak as if this is a hypothetical. I have a wonderful idea brewing in my head now... Kireek. Your title is the Black Hound, is it not? Stay still for a moment. I promise this won't hurt a bit, but it may annoy you."

[Despite his protests, Kireek is still as a statue while Marian procures a marker out of nowhere, uncaps it, and proceeds to doodle all over his chestplate.]

MARIAN: "And... done! You are permitted to look now. How do you like my handiwork? Is it as great as you expected? I figured an adorable puppy would suit his menacing nature well. I am quite the artiste, am I not?"

KIREEK: "...These scribbles are supposed to be a dog? I can barely tell what it is."

MARIAN: "Of course you can't, you're looking down at your own chest. If you remain bothered by my lack of talent, would you prefer it if I left lipstick marks on your face as I did once before? I recall you saying something along the lines of, 'That color's barely visible, you should kiss me one more time.'"

KIREEK: "This conversation is over. No more questions."

official f/ovember post!

this november, i've decided to participate in the event hosted by @cherry-bomb-ships. kireek and alhanalem will answer asks from my followers, and they'll be joined with their respective self inserts at times. answers will be color coded for each character. i'll let them take the reins now and introduce themselves ^^

KIREEK: "Since Marian's roped me into this, I suppose I have no choice. Really, I don't like working with others, but if they insist, I'll answer any question...within reason. Just try and keep it short."

MARIAN: "You could at least attempt to be cordial, you know. Your personality isn't exactly the most welcoming, so I wouldn't be surprised if our friends would prefer to direct their questions over to that kindly bird fellow over there." [Marian punctuates that remark with an adjustment of their glasses.] "Speaking of which... I don't believe I've seen him before. He doesn't look like anyone living on Ragol. Sir, if you wouldn't mind introducing yourself?"

ALHANALEM: "...Hrm. It is an easy mistake to make for someone not of this world, but I am not a bird relational. I am Alhanalem, former servant of King Kolka, and member of the household royal. While I am currently too preoccupied at the moment to give an introduction formal, I am happy to assist in answering questions whenever I am able, whether they be personal or magical."
