[open] Cow.

Who: Gaius and various and assorted people.
When: 5/11
Where: Gresser
What: Cows
Rating: S for stupid, probably with some light curses and terrible metaphors.

RANDOM ENCOUNTER:

[And that was when Gaius turned to his companion(s), warming to the story.] So the second ham was tossed into the air and the juggler reached for the torc-

[And that was when a small herd of goats ran past them.

...

There's probably something chasing the distressed goats, huh. (Hint: it's probably a bear.)]


COW:

["Moo," said the cow, distressed. There was three of them, tired, wary, staring at the heroes who likely stared back at them. Gaius stared, at least, though who knows...maybe his companion had a natural instinct for tending to cows and was running to care for them. He hesitated.] What are we getting for this, again?

OBLIGATORY MISSION AFTERMATH:

[Because they are and he looks tired and vaguely done right now. He is going to order a sundae with some fruit he never heard of because he can.]

[Her? Making cow followers? Gaius, you have too much faith in her. Or in anyone else that is here for this job. Whatever, she somehow got pulled onto this job.]

...not enough.

[Who put them up for this again? This is total bull crap.]

[Because she arrived late. Seeing that training sure WIPED HER a couple of days before.

So by the time she comes by, dragging her luggage, she sees an equally tired Gaius--]


You look...done.

[No truer words have ever been said.]

[having participated in the investigations in the fields outside of Caissa, stumbled across dragons preying on the Blanc livestock, and braved an ice storm in order to help take one of those creatures down, it wasn't too much of a surprise to find Kaito following the dragon trail all the way to Gresser. and although the locals insisted that the dragons had left days ago, the missing livestock and restless wildlife is what got him to stick around.]

[so he's probably hanging around Gaius, listening to his fellow hero tell a joke with an amused grin playing on his features, when the herd of goats practically stampedes past them. when that happens, he stops. he stares. and he slowly, very slowly, turns around to face the pursuer]

[the, ah. grizzly bear pursuer]






Crap.

[Hux hasn't really come to Gresser for the job. This is a stupid job, and he refuses to do it. It is beneath him. That hasn't stopped him from tagging along, however, to observe the town. Knowing the layout of your surroundings is essential, and Hux has taken to start keeping maps of everywhere he goes, just in case he should have need of it. He's currently sketching in some buildings in the town with a precise hand in a leather-bound book while Gaius babbles. Hux isn't really listening; this sort of thing annoys him immensely. But it helps keep Gaius's trust in him, which could be most useful in the future.

Of course, he's just drawing the edge of a delicate outline when the herd of goats run past. He jolts with surprise, sucking in a breath, the pencil scraping against the paper and going straight through the map.]


What the--[his head turns to follow their retreat, scowling, not really looking yet at what's following them]...that was rather unexpected.
