Jerath: Shake him down.

The things you do for love.

You did promise your matesprit you’d get out of the hive more, and she certainly did seem...taken with this crafty little bookseller. You have to admit, you’re somewhat curious yourself what this capitulating, smugly obsequious little nit might look like.

So far you’re unimpressed with this town. It’s too warm, full of steam and charlatans. You feel totally out of place, and you wish you could draw a weapon--just for a little reassurance. Every time some machine or building hisses a gout of steam you resist the urge to jump out of your husk and smash it, in exactly that order. You are currently on your Best Behavior.

Of course this little fuck is holed up in Highfog. A more ostentatious admixture of dubious technology and arcane witchcraft could not exist anywhere else--and to think this place is nearly in your lawnring! Close enough that you have debated checking out the extensive archives to supplement your mythological research, but rejected the idea on the grounds that you would surely catch a haint if you stepped foot in that accursed library. Your fingers drift to your silver necklace idly as you think on it. At least you’ve got some manner of protection, but the less time spent here, the better.

You hold Vide’s hand (out of flushed affection, and not at all because you are scared of witches), and approach the door that she indicates is the correct one. You put on your sternest expression, flex instinctively, and knock as loudly as you fucking can. You’ll be damned if you’re the only jumpy one here.
