Orb, Day 2 of the Great Heat's Beginning

[warewolf]

[Kay looks tired. His injuries haven't fully healed yet -- there are some bandages visible above the neckline of the tunic he's wearing. It looks like he's done his best to hide them, but not quite succeeded.]

So, uh...I've got this horse, and...does anybody want it? I mean, I'm not going to do anything with it. I can't freaking ride a horse. So it might as well go to someone who can, right?

I can get around just fine without it, and I don't have a clue how to take care of the damn thing. Someone take it off my hands already. Same with this sword thing.

[He holds it up, turning it back and forth in the light, looking at it.]

I don't need it. I don't even know if it's any good. But if I keep it, it's not gonna kill anything but dust bunnies, because it's not coming out from under the bed, you know what I mean?

Any takers? I'll trade you something for them.

Comments

[warewolf]

Yeah, I'm staying in the wing by the stables.

[He meets her grin with a wince.]

You're lucky that you like the clothes. I'm not going to go into what they tried to make me wear.

[golden_moon]

You said something about fur, I believe. It's a look I enjoy from time to time, honestly.

[She shrugged to herself.]

Perhaps I shall see you around, then. Though I'm not in that wing, I fear.

[warewolf]

Let's just say I'd never anyone I know to see me in it.

But yeah, we're gonna run into each other again. This town isn't that big, and we're staying in the same place.

See you around -- Selene, right?

[golden_moon]

That's right. I'm afraid I didn't catch your name.

[warewolf]

[Did he seriously forget to introduce himself? He could've sworn he did, but doesn't quite remember.]

Oh, yeah. Sorry. It's Kay. Kay Curtis.

[golden_moon]

Kay Curtis.

[A little frown. The name sounded familiar, but she was pretty sure he hadn't introduced himself.]

Hmm. Well, I look forward to meeting you properly, Mr. Curtis.

[warewolf]

[Eh, it's not a big deal. Kay shrugs.]

Yeah, see you.

[And he'll cut the connection.]
