RONIN if there's one thing i'm good at, it's surviving
One to go. Ronin has no idea what this innocuous white flower might hold, but based on his experiences so far, he has decided he will walk the streets far, far away from anyone he might know. The Star is out of his training clothes for the first time in what feels like forever, bundled up against the cold with his boots crunching in the snow. It is early morning, and the clouds above are heavy with more snow to come, a gentle fog rolling in around Ronin's heels. He has just plucked the very last petal from the white flower, huffing out a breath and flinging the stem over his shoulder. Well. Now it's just time to... wait and see, he supposes. He's not impressed at first, when nothing happens, pausing on a bridge to look out over the Silk Houses far, far below. "This is great," he grumbles. |

Seraphina the artificer
wanna play cheat, now says the sloth
a domino flush to his nose Of course Seraphina is out in the city. Where else would she be? Her workshop? A likely idea but today is a day solely for her, without appointments and everything else. It’s time for her to shop and dine and enjoy the little things all by herself. At least, that’s the plan. She hasn’t made it very far in her outing, having only bought a new coat laden with warm pale furs, the fabric a deep plum color accented in the milky white of hares and mink along her collar. The rest of her is decadently dressed as usual, a warm skirt, dark leggings beneath to keep her warm, and warm boots that crunch along the snow as she moves to head over the bridge toward the other set of stores.
Distraction comes easily, however, not immediately recognizing Ronin and his particularly notable brooding atop the bridge. She nearly passes him, dark eyes glancing over him as she does anyone else she passes in Stormbreak. But realization comes quickly, the Artificer spinning on her heel to plant herself beside him, arms resting along the side of the bridge as she peers up at him. “Don’t you look dashing not in your training gear?” She chimes playfully, her dark hair falling slightly as she cocks her head. “A little broody, but we can make do.” This is said with a bit more amusement, trying to lighten his mood in the only way she knows how. Jesting and poking fun. tickle that cheek and take your throne pump your veins with gushing gold the White Knight

a domino flush to his nose She brings him out of his brooding, momentarily, but she can’t help the way her smile shifts slightly under his attention and the words that leave him, a glimmer of confusion crossing through her face before she pushes it aside with a quiet laugh. “Oh?” She tries to play along, until he’s stumbling over his words and trying to explain and while Sera’s smile remains, her eyes crinkle with confusion.
So she aims for humor instead. “I know I wasn’t perfect during our spar but you don’t have to rub it in.” An elbow sneaks out to nudge him playfully, a chime of a laugh leaving her before she realizes that he’s acting strange and she leans so her hip rests against the rails of the bridge to better focus on him. “Are you feeling okay, Ronin?” A tilt of her head is given, dark curled hair falling over her shoulder again as she rests her elbow on top of the rail, gloved hands folding together. tickle that cheek and take your throne pump your veins with gushing gold the White Knight

Seraphina the artificer

a domino flush to his nose Something is happening and all at once Sera’s smile fades into concern. Her jest is met with worry when he tells her he’s not okay, that he’s dying, unsurprisingly unable to read between the lines when his words sound so much like a love confession and the rest of his body language screams otherwise. And then he says he wants to get married and she chokes a laugh, shaking her head. “Ronin, you are married.” She informs him at first, at a loss at what else to do.
She certainly wasn’t going to get roped up between Star and Lullaby, that much was for damned sure. She reaches out to grasp his arm, to drag him from the bridge toward the gardens to keep their conversation an edge more private. “Have you been drinking?” She asks, despite being unable to smell alcohol on him or spy any other off mannerisms. tickle that cheek and take your throne pump your veins with gushing gold the White Knight

a domino flush to his nose Oh but he really is married. Still, Sera finds herself relaxing a minuscule amount as he tells her he’s drunk, a cloudy breath of a sigh leaving her as she focuses on his face, on the snow that clings to both their dark hair. But he turns from her, slaps himself hard across the face to her shock and surprise, and belts a truth across the bridge that has people pausing in their walk, birds flying from where they’d originally been minding their own business.
Her feet move before her mind does, stepping toward him to grab both his hands and peer up at him with a raise of her dark brow. “Yes you are. Come on now, let’s get you something to sober you up?” If Ronin’s flushed from whatever’s happening, Sera is too — the awkwardness eating at her in a way she’s unsure how to deal with. “And maybe it will stop you from slapping yourself and shouting what everyone already knows, hm?” tickle that cheek and take your throne pump your veins with gushing gold the White Knight

a domino flush to his nose He doesn’t stop her from dragging him toward the end of the bridge, their hands still together even as she pauses and his words marginally begin to make more sense. “Good morning…?” She repeats, though ends with a question. Not for the time of day, because it is still morning, but for the shift he’s taken and the explanation.
Her features soften as he explains, grateful for the bluntness, a cloudy laugh leaving her in a sigh as she shakes her head. “Oh thank Frey.” She murmurs, her gaze landing on their hands again before she immediately drops them before it prolongs into the already more awkward territory they’re driving straight for. “That would have been… A lot.” She finally decides, unable to surmise how much shit it would have stirred. “A quest for Safrin, though? One that has you professing love to people you hardly know?” Her jesting tones are back as relief spreads through her. tickle that cheek and take your throne pump your veins with gushing gold the White Knight

a domino flush to his nose Oh it was a lot, so much that Sera still hasn’t entirely processed it. But to know it wasn’t real allows her the ability to shift it to the back burner, to not have to worry about it in the present. Which also allows her to walk with him, a leisurely stroll that has her collecting snow just as much as he does. But they don’t melt right away, at the very least. He explains further and her gaze slips from the path they take to glance back at him with a playful smile crossing her face.
“Astral projection, hm? That sounds useful.” She can only imagine how much easier things would be if there were more than one of her. But he tells her he thinks it was lying, the petal he’d taken, and she can’t help the next chime of laughter. “Oh it’s quite alright. At least you didn’t tell me I was hideous and to get out of your sight.” Ever the vain woman Sera was, the rest of his comments hadn’t bothered her. In fact, she flashes him a wide grin and snakes an elbow out to nudge into his side. “I’m fine, Ronin. It is very relieving to hear that you don’t want to marry me and you aren’t thinking about me constantly, let me tell you.” tickle that cheek and take your throne pump your veins with gushing gold the White Knight

a domino flush to his nose Surprise crosses the Artificer when there’s suddenly two Ronins, and she can’t help but to offer the projection the previous coat she’d carried from making the purchase of this one, before her attention flits back to the source with an amused laugh. “Gods, imagine the work I could get done with another one of me.” She snorts, shaking her head as she guides him through the gardens toward the shops on the other side.
A nod is given at the fact of lying going other worse ways, and all in all Sera feels the tension release from her body. “Iiiiii,” she begins, trailing out the beginning of her statement before she turns to him with her chin raised, coat on full display, “bought myself this beautiful new coat.” She chimes before beginning to walk again. “Today’s an off day for me. I can’t help but to go and indulge.” A bit of explanation before she’s glancing sidelong at him with that same playful smile. “What do you say I treat you to some hot chocolate and perhaps browse for something for you or that Lullaby of yours?” tickle that cheek and take your throne pump your veins with gushing gold | ||||||
