Orus is really the kind of person that doesn't go out of his way to become physically confrontational during a conflict. He's very used to his prowess as a stealth assassin and keeps to the shadows while working with others in subduing a target while using as less energy as he can to get the results he wants.

Of course, not all of his missions end up perfect and Orus is always the last one to back out before things get hairy. If he can keep his concentration just right, he can aim and nail an opponent in the weak spot with his poison-laced weapons without getting harmed.

He does depend on others to defend him when he's on the job, if the task proves to be too much for him (which he likely won't admit, but let's be real he has to swallow his pride sometimes when it comes to money and living without the threat of his family becoming endangered).

Snake - day 4

Tangle and twist around your enemies,

Strike with venom when they least expect it

[glorytoclorin]

"It smells like dried up cod here suddenly and I don't like it."

[glorytoclorin]

"Yes, i've tasted my own poison before. No, it doesn't do anything for me and also no, it doesn't taste like anything you'd expect for it to taste like."

[glorytoclorin]

"Oh, I see. Being wanted by the law and all, I shouldn't be too surprised. It's not like i'm any different, I sort of contribute to the chaos BUT for good reason." It's not like he actively goes out of his way to enjoy assassinating kingly figures and important idols in order to tip power imbalance, but a job is a job and money is money. If he couldn't put his own poison to good use then it's quite a waste of potential, in his mind.

His lips pressing in a fine line while in mid thought, Orus sighed slowly. It's a content sigh, a relaxed reflex met by his body slouching to get comfortable. They all really are getting chased by a lot of things, aren't they? Surely this job won't get easier, but...

Then, a small smile appears on his lips. A genuine one, this time.

"Well then, maybe this means that we were meant to find each other out here in this dog-eat-dog world. Even if you both are running from the law and all, it's not impossible to gain an extra footing into the mix. I do have some rather tasteful experience in slipping away from stuff like that."

A chuckle, and he leans his cheek on his arm. His gaze then settling onto hers as he feels an eyebrow inch upward. Amused, in a way.

"You think i'd be cuter if I stopped fighting you?" He echoed, his head lulling to the other side as he felt a hint of genuine fascination for a moment.

"I think that it's cute that you say that. Maybe I only do so because I like our little moments like this, but maybe that's also because in a setting like this.. we can just enjoy each other's company."

This isn't something he USUALLY says, but since these two are here in his own little hideaway... he may as well let them and himself feel security.

ㅤㅤ " NO point in actively bothering him when we're all supposed to be asleep by now anyways. Besides, we both came up here to be alone, didn't we ? " At the end of the day, everyone was alone when night fell for all to slumber but still ... it wasn't bad to have unexpected company when solitude was her only companion. If only they could have conversations like this during the day but well, it didn't matter too much in the moment. She was far too tired to care.

ㅤㅤ " Mm ... well, you should've known better than to be an asshole lest you make a fool of yourself -- which is exactly what happened but for better or for worse, you're here with us now. And believe it or not ... Dusk and I met by pure chance. He was being chased by a bunch of soldiers then I ended up being dragged into his mess but it wasn't as if I had a goal or place in mind so I just ended up tagging along. I suppose the journey so far hasn't been too terrible. A bit troublesome at times and having you around ... well, I suppose I tolerate you at best but you'd be much more cuter if you stopped fighting me, you know ? "

"Confidence? Well, that's not the first time someone has called me that, honestly. Maybe it's because I tend to pick up a lot of side jobs and such while im on my way through my traveling." Or maybe he never really thought about being TOO confident before-- but either way, the swordsman couldn't help but chuckle at the regard. He found it lighthearted, if anything!

A surprised blink when he hears something shatter and Blue Bird's attention immediately goes towards where the mug USED to be. Just- just what happened-?! Well, as fast as it happened his mind was quickly taken off on the incident when Wylan made his point clear.

"Ah- Oh-! Well, since i'm just a traveler I don't really tend to remember fleeting faces. Maybe I should fix that, actually…" Blue Bird taps his chin. He's REALLY making the gears in that tiny brain turn, he's TRYING!

"What if we just retraced my steps? Maybe eventually we will run into them, and it's not like i'm going to be too late on my next assignment." Honestly though even if he WAS going to be late, he didn't feel right just leaving the poor guy in utter confusion. What kind of adventurer would he be?!

Cocky, this one. Perhaps in response to or in spite of the mishap that had just transpired. Wylan may have come across a little harsher than necessary. But points needed to be made. And reputation needs to be properly honed like one of his many other dangerous blades. It’s good to be amiable and approachable, it’s another thing to be easily stepped on. Wait. This is Wylan. That works too under the right foot…

“So what you’re telling me is you’re an innocent bystander. Interesting. Forgive me, but it’s just… you presented yourself with such confidence I find it hard to believe you weren’t in on the joke as well. Hey! Water under the bridge, right?” A dismissive gesture of his free hand after taking another sip of (gourmet) coffee. Then. The mug is tossed. Discarded. Shattered. What mug?

“So now I have to figure out-” An arm is thrown over Blue Bird’s shoulder. Tone is kind but don’t be fooled, you are currently under the restrained status. Attempting to escape will have consequences. “-who it was that sent you. You get it, right? I need you to tell me. Make it easy for everyone.”

She lays on the ground and stares up at the sky. It's beautiful tonight, all of the shooting stars above move so effortlessly. Ah... she yearns to be just like them. Fleeting and carefree. Bright, shining sparkles in the night. If only she didn't feel such dread overwhelm her, but this is why she simply settles for gazing upon them in the dead of night.

Beautiful. She lifts her hand and traces a faint line of where a shooting star had grazed the starry night sky.

"Why am I here..."

[glorytoclorin]

"...I don't know why you're looking this way, but I certainly don't have the answers that you seek." Short and to the point, as she always is. Stella's gaze had befallen on the wayward one who decided to interrupt her concentration on what seemed to be a spell book in her hands.

Blue Bird's a little dense if you say something stupid is actually a sport he'll believe you no questions asked

[glorytoclorin]

@dcviated Wylan caught fish punching in 4K lets GO!!!

Blue Bird couldn't even fathom what was wrong with this situation- in fact, as he listened to Wylan slowly sip his (fancy?) coffee, the swordsman began to dust his hands and look out the doorway where this supposed 'sign' was. Ok… maybe this WAS a stupid idea, but to be fair it wasn't HIS fault that he ended up here with what he THOUGHT was important cargo for this 'fish punching' business.

With a slow blink, he looks back at the guy- oh shit ok NOW he's seeing that he probably screwed up this weird delivery. Hands waving up with a chuckle, Blue Bird smiled sheepishly at the confusion.

"Haha, well I can't say that I entirely knew what was going on, but I believe that you didn't even let me explain myself as to why i'm confused about this little set up. You see, someone directed me here because they promised me a little pay in my pocket. So, to be fair, I assumed you were in need of this, erm. Ridiculous sounding sport."

Whether or not he thought fish punching was still a sport or not was beyond anyone, but he couldn't say that this was at least a little hilarious to get caught up in.

"Oh, these?" He looks over at Aether, and then at the eggs in his arms. Ah, yeah maybe he should've thought about how many eggs he was willing to take as a reward. "They're for helping that one guy down the street over there, and he promised free food- but honestly... I didn't think that far into this. I, uh... I might need some help, actually."

ㅤㅤ" ... DID you wrangle a bunch of chickens or something ? What are you gonna do with all those eggs anyways ? "

[glorytoclorin]

"I guess I do give that impression that, with some effort, anything is possible." He's saying this as he's standing there with an armful of chicken eggs.
