Who: Wukong and (insert your name here)!
When: Early April
Where: Capablanca
What: Someone's really enthusiastic about gathering up various food supplies... with mixed results, of course.
Rating: None for now, but will edit if needed...?



A. An apple a day keeps...

[ Juggling a few apples in his hands, Wukong at least looks the part of an entertainer as he tries to show off the few applicable personable skills that he has. In front of the farmers, however, it's more likely they're surprised by the fact a walking, talking monkey is a Hero rather than him trying to get information from them. Three apples, in perfect condition, looking like they'd never touch the ground if the monkey could keep his concentration...

And then, noticing you approach, he tosses one in your direction. Think fast, because the other ones will be coming too! He hopes you can juggle, otherwise there might be a few disappointed farmers and their children. ]



B. If you teach a monkey to fish...

[ But with his newly acquired information, he's told that fishing might be the better option when it comes to finding fresh and delicious food. The apples, safely stowed away in a basket he acquired from earlier, friendly folk, sit nearby as he swings a net around. It looks like that he would be using something that isn't a rod for some reason, though one sits next to the apples looking like it could picked up and used immediately.

Looking out at the river, the water sparkling as the sun hits it just right... Wukong's a little concerned that he might not be able to catch as many fish as one who may be skilled at the fine, patient art of fishing. Mostly because he's not exactly patient, practical, and a little too energetic for his own good. ]


You know, I've never gone fishing before. I have a much better idea.


C. Honey, I've made a terrible bee-stake...

[ The clouds are coming and soon, the sky is dark and threatening a terrible storm. The wind is picking up and the smell of ozone lingers on the senses. Then, suddenly, a horrible buzzing. It's nearly louder than the wind, and it's bearing down on you quickly because... ]

RUN! RUNRUNRUNRUN!

[ You're in the way of Wukong, who doesn't even try to be nice as he pushes past you roughly. Then again, there's probably a reason for his rudeness and it comes swiftly, on many irritated wings. A swarm of bees, hurtling toward you and the monkey, who is already past---

--- you better catch up because this is going to bee-come a huge problem for you. ]



D. Wildcard

[ When not being a dumb, Wukong is locating fruits for another purpose! He's even keeping them separated, because he has a taste for banana nut bread that only one can sate. Or, perhaps you see him resting in the shade of a tree--- either in the sun, or dodging the storm, being particularly thoughtful. Either way, come at me scrub lord. I'm ripped? Or, come fight me at [plurk.com profile] aslyfox ]

D - Under the tree

[ He's not here for the job, which you should absolutely worry about if he is, but Tieria also happens to be resting under the same tree after a vigorous session of sword practice. Seeing the monkey so thoughtful is somehow strange that he couldn't help but ask. ]

What are you thinking about?

[ He's curious... ]

[ Tieria doesn't rush him, giving Wukong all the time he needs to answer or not. He wouldn't press him if he doesn't want to disclose anything. His answer however, is interesting. ]

Why? Was the condition back home that bad that you'll prefer a foreign world over it?

[ He considers Wukong's offer for a short while before nodding. He's tired, might as well eat something. ]

Sure.
buildyourworld: (Well then...)

[ He mutters a quiet thanks for the apple and takes a bite as he listens on to what Wukong has to say. ]

Noir hasn't used even a fraction of their actual power if what I read from the old war logs are true. I believe the troops they sent are scouts, because we're an anomaly they have no information about.

[ Once they do, he's sure Noir would start sending her actual troops. ]

True, there's merit to having more available hands and diverse sets of skills to utilize.

There's no such thing as one perfect strategy. Noir wouldn't be relying solely on their scouts. There are multiple facets to intelligence gathering, I'm sure Noir is more than capable in them, including using magical methods that we're not familiar with.

[ Tieria is not naive and definitely wouldn't put it behind Noir to use whatever means necessary to reclaim their old capital.

As for the rest, Tieria couldn't but agree that despite the differences, there are similarity between Ensprise and Earth that invokes his protectiveness over Ensprise's citizen. However, he couldn't say the same for Blanc or Noir. He could care less about the governments and if he has his way, he would finish them both for good.

But none of those thoughts made it to Wukong as Tieria keeps them in his mind. No one in this world needs to know about him. ]


I suppose that's one way to look at it.

[ He gives Wukong a slap on his back to help dislodge whatever stuck in his throat. ]
buildyourworld: (i don't like the sound of this)

[ He nods and offers Wukong his water bottle.

It surprises him, honestly, that Wukong would place so much weight to his words despite them being nothing but mere acquaintance. There really are all kinds of people in the world and sometimes he really envies those who could easily places their trust onto people. It's bravery Tieria could not afford to have, for the burden he bears are much too important to wager on trusting just anyone. ]


There's something twisted about this world. This war between Blanc and Noir isn't as simple as they claimed. Between redacted war logs and hidden hands, if we can't figure out the contradiction of this world, nothing we do will help it.

[ There's no lie in his words, only truth he gleams from his observation and information he gathered up to this point. ]
buildyourworld: (serious grass)

[personal profile] buildyourworld 2016-04-25 07:23 am (UTC)(link)
[ Either way, Tieria is thankful of Wukong's courtesy as he accepts the bottle back.

Tieria's gaze does't waver either and if Wukong is perceptive enough, he would be able to tell that Tieria is completely serious about what he said. ]


If they brought me here, they should know that I won't stop until I find the truth.

[ The question is, are they prepared for his judgement? Because Celestial Being has always been fair in their judgement. No one escapes it trying to use them as a mean to stop war. Not even Ensprise. ]
buildyourworld: (What are you thinking?)

[personal profile] buildyourworld 2016-04-28 03:38 am (UTC)(link)
[ He raises a curious brow at Wukong's declaration of alliance. It's so out of the left field to Tieria that he doesn't know how to respond to him. They're really not that well acquainted for Wukong to trust him this much, so it perplexes him a little. ]

Why? You barely even know me.

[ Is he a good person? On principle? Maybe. But Tieria is pretty sure he's not a good person in the eyes of many if they saw his track records. But he doesn't care. He's not bothered by conventional idea of morality. ]
buildyourworld: (I'll handle it)

[personal profile] buildyourworld 2016-04-29 12:14 pm (UTC)(link)
[ What an interesting person.

That sums up Tieria's current observation of Wukong whose intelligence certainly put some of the heroes here to shame. Although playful, he seem to have his heart in the right place. It makes him curious of the world Wukong hails from. A world that advocates balance in all things, it doesn't sound like a bad world at all...

Getting up from the ground, he dusts his pants off, watching Wukong climbs up the tree with ease. ]


It's your choice to make. Regardless, I appreciate your trust.

[ Picking up Forseti, he nods to Wukong to excuse himself. ]

Thanks for the apple. I'm heading back to practice.
