A panther in the night, a fire burning bright.
It was midday and Ray found herself walking through the port. She had just finished up a rather fruitful meeting with one of her spies. Apparently the recently discovered Draig Cordillera was a rather dangerous place from which few had returned. Those that were lucky enough to escape whispered about various dangers. One persona even insisted that there were dragons guarding the mountains. That tidbit had only been proclaimed by one of the individuals Ray's spy had met. Not enough for Ray to take it seriously. But it would be interesting to see if similar reports came through in the future. If there were dragons guarding the mountains, then that required something worth guarding hidden within the rock and snow. But those musings were for another day. So for now Ray wandered the port aimlessly, listened to conversations and browsing the merchant's wares. Perhaps one had come in with a useful herb? Or maybe a new dagger that Ray could buy? r a y

if there's one thing the gods love, it's tragedy The Port always seemed to be bustling. Today wasn’t any different, especially as he drifts down toward it to the shops, in search of something for Nate – because he’d been given a beautiful gift, and seeing as Sunjata’s quite competitive when it comes to gifting, he can’t quite let Nate just get away with it. So he makes his way there, Haai tucked at his side with her wings folded in tight, large fuzzy head peering around each time they stop.
Initially, he stops by a space that has jewels and jewelry, pausing as he considers maybe getting him something there, but no. He’d done that last time. He can’t repeat himself, after all. So he shifts his attention to something else, the weaponry one, pausing with his tattooed arms folded across his chest as he debates between throwing axes and bows. But he spies a crossbow in the corner, his steel eyes slipping toward the griffin at his side. “You think he’d like that?” His accented rumble crosses the air as he focuses on his companion, as the griffin’s emerald gaze drifts toward the crossbow in question, before she’s moving and her wings loosen a bit as she tries to get a bit more of a closer look toward it, the edges of her feathers nearing Ray close enough that it might brush by her legs. with wings that burn and boys who fall SUNJATA Feel free to use magic/force on Sunjata, without killing him <3 Sunjata speaks with an Australian accent and has a passive magic that makes him produce a subtle scent that matches exactly to whatever those around him most desire him to smell like.

if there's one thing the gods love, it's tragedy As Ray moves slightly and the griffin can slip by her more, the wolfish magpie cross lifts her head to peer at the woman with a puff of smoke from her maw, a swift ‘thank you’ from the griffin before she gets a bit closer, sends those mental flickers of images to Sunjata from her closer vantage point. The governor, however, isn’t too distracted to not hear Ray speak – a familiar enough voice that has his head turning toward her.
Immediately there’s an easy smile, a nod as he moves to go and stand beside her so they can talk easier. “She is, yeah. This is Haai.” He says, unfolding one arm to gesture to the griffin. “She’s a bit more of a pain in my ass though, if I’m being honest.” A quiet huff of a laugh slips from him with that smaller comment, before he’s noticing the daggers that she’d been eyeing. “Are you here to look for something new and shiny?” He asks, raising a dark brow, head nodding toward the set of daggers. with wings that burn and boys who fall SUNJATA Feel free to use magic/force on Sunjata, without killing him <3 Sunjata speaks with an Australian accent and has a passive magic that makes him produce a subtle scent that matches exactly to whatever those around him most desire him to smell like.

if there's one thing the gods love, it's tragedy Sunjata can’t help the amused roll of his eyes in response to Ray’s commentary to the griffin, Haai on the other hand offering quite the canine grin and slinking closer to the other attuned, a pointed look back at Sunjata that seems to say ‘ha, fuck you’ which only has Sunjata reaching up with a hand to rub at the side of his face with a quiet groan. “That’s how she gets you.” He offers, fingers parting across his face so that he might wink to Ray, before the hand falls from his face again and he huffs a quiet laugh.
It fades easily at the mention of the Wilds, a nod given to the woman. “Might be a dangerous adventure.” He murmurs thoughtfully, steel gaze eyeing the daggers again. “Never hurts to have extra protection. What are you planning on saving for, for Deepfrost, if you don’t mind me asking?” He hadn’t really heard much of people saving up for Deepfrost, but he supposes it makes sense. Typically Sunjata’s books got fuller when the colder season rolled around, at least back when he was in the Grounds. The VlamVloed was almost always busy during the snows. His gaze drifts back to the crossbow on the back wall, however, as he hears Ray’s question. “Mm, not a trip per say. More of a gift for my husband, actually.” A crooked smile is slanted Ray’s way, a shrug of his shoulders. “I think he might like it.” with wings that burn and boys who fall SUNJATA Feel free to use magic/force on Sunjata, without killing him <3 Sunjata speaks with an Australian accent and has a passive magic that makes him produce a subtle scent that matches exactly to whatever those around him most desire him to smell like.

if there's one thing the gods love, it's tragedy “Smart plan.” Sunjata offers with another crooked smile, a nod of his head in agreement with her plan to venture to the Wilds. In terms of saving up for Deepfrost, though, his gaze focuses a bit more intently on her, nodding here and there as she expresses what she’s going through. And then a thought occurs to him, one that somewhat ties the conversation all together.
“You should talk to my husband about it.” He begins, his smile brightening a bit. “He and the clinic have been setting things up for Deepfrost, perhaps the two of you could collaborate on something? Help out one another so it’s less hard on you alone?” But his gaze tears away back to the crossbow, to the next conversation that has him chuckling lightly. He exhales in a quiet sigh, a half smirk shot back toward Ray. “It’s usually jewelry or weaponry for me. I suppose sometimes the two cross.” He offers before stepping forward to get the attention of the merchant. with wings that burn and boys who fall SUNJATA Feel free to use magic/force on Sunjata, without killing him <3 Sunjata speaks with an Australian accent and has a passive magic that makes him produce a subtle scent that matches exactly to whatever those around him most desire him to smell like.

if there's one thing the gods love, it's tragedy He smiles easier when she perks up at the idea, Sunjata always a fan of ensuring that there’s other paths to take, to not have one end be the end all be all. It’s always a bonus when he gets Nate involved with it as well. So he’s positively pleased with himself as he nods to her, a crookedly boyish grin spreading across his face as he looks down toward her. “And hopefully neither of you will burn out with it.” He agrees, a softer edge to his tone before his head is tilting away to catch the merchants attention, to drag them over.
“Why not?” He asks, flashing her a grin, before the merchant’s standing before him. He speaks up the details of what he’d like for the crossbow, a few adjustments to tension in the string here and there, as well as a few more aesthetic additions – a silver charm to add to the end of the bow in the shape of a feather, provided it wasn’t too much trouble. He even agrees that having it done in the next few days before they send it to his home is fine, before the merchant is lingering and Sunjata’s nodding his head toward Ray to get the merchants order over here as well. “And those daggers that she wants, you can put it on mine.” On his payment, of course, his silver gaze drifting back to Ray with an easy smile. with wings that burn and boys who fall SUNJATA Feel free to use magic/force on Sunjata, without killing him <3 Sunjata speaks with an Australian accent and has a passive magic that makes him produce a subtle scent that matches exactly to whatever those around him most desire him to smell like.

if there's one thing the gods love, it's tragedy “I can only imagine.” He hums, though there is some glimmer of understanding beneath that mind of his. He understands what it means to have yourself on the edge of a rope, still working, still continuing on, because that’s the only thing you could do. And if he could personally stay as far away from that as possible, he was often a much happier person. He imagines Ray would appreciate the option to not get that far as well.
So it’s easy for him to tack on her daggers, to watch as she glares and almost flounders, that grin on his face growing much more amused. “Nope. There isn’t.” He flashes her a wink as the merchant moves to grab the daggers, to wrap them up nicely for Ray while the Governor shifts his attention to the woman beside him a bit more fully. “You’re welcome.” He rumbles with another easy grin. “If you’re determined on paying back, perhaps I’ll have something I need help with later on.” His shoulders shrug easily. with wings that burn and boys who fall SUNJATA Feel free to use magic/force on Sunjata, without killing him <3 Sunjata speaks with an Australian accent and has a passive magic that makes him produce a subtle scent that matches exactly to whatever those around him most desire him to smell like.

if there's one thing the gods love, it's tragedy “I’ll keep it in mind.” He tells her easily, moving back from speaking with the merchant when everything was squared away. His attention lands back on her as Haai returns, her large head lifting up to sniff at Ray and let her pet her should she wish to, feathers ruffling as she readjusts her wings tight to her back to fit through the throng of people.
He supposes that’s his cue to go, however, turning to start following Haai through the crowd. “I’ll see you around, Ray.” He offers, a hand raised to wave to her, before slipping away through the crowd following the griffin likely to the Clinic to walk home with Nate once the sun sets. - FIN <3 with wings that burn and boys who fall SUNJATA Feel free to use magic/force on Sunjata, without killing him <3 Sunjata speaks with an Australian accent and has a passive magic that makes him produce a subtle scent that matches exactly to whatever those around him most desire him to smell like. | ||||||
