(I may be stupid, but what is Trade School?)
(You're not the first person to ask. My school sends students to this "technical institute" and you learn a trade (a job))
(OH funnnnn)(What trade are you learning?)
(Fashion design and Interior decorating. Just for now. I'm not actually gonna use a lot of it for my future.)
Molly watches as the unfamiliar figure walks/jogs (idk which Fiona is doing XD) towards the shop. Unfamiliar yet… familiar.
I'm sure I've seen her before… Just not here.
She squints, having trouble seeing them at all in the low light.
(Fashion design and Interior decorating. Just for now. I'm not actually gonna use a lot of it for my future.)
(It's sounds fun :))
"C'mon…" She muttered, walking up to the door and finding herself grinning when the door did open. Now the problem would be seeing what system they used here, whether they were back to trading or if they used money.
App was now slinking around a back road, a pistol gripped in her hand, her footsteps slightly unsteady as she headed for what they had designated as the main trading post. She needed to grab some grub and see if they had any new alcohol selection. Probably not, but moonshine'll do. That seemed to be common, along with homemade beer and wine. She slipped into the shop through the back room, greeting a few people back there before turning on the pistol's safety and shoving in into it's holster.
Molly places her hand over her gun's holster, pressing her fingers on the cold metal of her gun. She grits her teeth and leaves the protection of the wall to head across the street to the trading post/shop.
Fiona stepped inside and immediately seemed relieved to see a variety of food and supplies. She didn't waste any time before starting to grab what she needed, including a first aid kit and quite a lot of food, even though she still had no clue if they traded or used money.
(Sorry for the gap)
Slowly walking in a few minutes after Fiona, Molly stands off against a far wall in shadows to glare at her.
Fiona?
Her glare dissolves and eyes widen.
Oh my word, she’s alive??
"You're not sneaky." She called out as she grabbed her last item, the comment directed to whoever had tried to hide in the shadows after she had come on. To be honest, it was difficult to see facial features in the dark corner, but she had seen the movement and had immediately become more on guard as she brought her stack of things to what she assumed was where to pay.
App walked into the main room, and cursed softly to herself when she saw not only Fiona, but her eyes (which contained night vision) saw Molly against the wall in the shadows. She sighed, and ignored them as she headed over to the alcohol selections, deliberating about which jug of crap she wanted this time around. Her tail wasn't out at the moment, as the locals were trigger-happy and would absolutely shoot her or drive her off if they knew she wasn't entirely human.
Molly's glare returns as quickly as it left and she rolls her eyes. "I'm not trying to be, dummy. Just here for supplies?"
She catches sight of App and watches her as she disappears behind a shelf to look over the alcohol.
Did they come here together?
I doubt it.
App grabbed a couple bottles of someone's homemade wine and headed over to one of the shopkeepers, exchanging the wine for a package of meat she had brought to trade. The shopkeeper knew her pretty well, and grinned at her, talking as he checked over the meat she had brought before confirming the trade. App never smiled, but thanked him and headed back out the back door, looking at Molly as she passed by and quirked an eyebrow before disappearing.
Fiona gave a nod in reply, "Yeah, figured I could use a restock before continuing on." She went quiet for a minute before asking a question, though never looking in her direction, "What about you? Passing through or settling down here?" Before she could hear the answer, one of the shopkeepers walked up, checking what she had and starting to haggle and bargain with her. There wasn't much that Fiona had with her, and most of it was important to her, meaning she had very little to trade with, even if the things she was trying to trade were still quite important to her.
(SO SORRY I WAS GONE LIKE ALL WEEK)(My work week was wretched DX I didn't even have a break yesterday and abt passed out.)(BUT IM BACK)(after much needed sleep)
Molly gives App a glance.
She looks different. Less nice I guess. She drinks now?
She gives her a half nod before joining Fiona. "Been here a while now." She takes an item off of a shelf to flip it over in her hands. "You guys come here together? You and Apollyon?"
Clovis runs a hand through his hair, ruffling it up a little and poking another stick into his small fire. The flames reflects in his dull blue eyes and he leans his back against a tree, zoning out watching the fire.
(he's made camp about a mile out of town. Has a makeshift tent, a fire and his bag but that like it)
(It's all good lol!)
"Nope. Didn't even know she was here." Fiona finally said once she had traded for her items and was shoving her new supplies into her bag, "You traveling with Clovis still?" Seeing Molly already made her want to leave since she didn't want to bring back the memories of traveling together, but she knew she had to stay at least one night. Mostly because she still hated the dark, and traveling in it was terrible.
Slipping her hands into her pant pockets and leaning against a shelf, she gives a half sigh, “no actually. Haven’t seen him for a little while. Lost him a few months back. Like literally lost him. The guys a freakin puppy.” She rolls her eyes. “You traveling alone then?”
(SO SORRY I WAS GONE LIKE ALL WEEK)(My work week was wretched DX I didn't even have a break yesterday and abt passed out.)(BUT IM BACK)(after much needed sleep)
(Aw, I hope you're doing better!! By the way, what do you do for work? Retail? Something else?)
App wandered out of town to go hunting. Once she was out of sight of the main part of the town, she hid her supplies in a hidey-hole she had up in a tree before reverting into her more robotic and animal-like state, her tail coming out and whipping around as she ran through the forest, allowing her to make tight turns at her high speeds at she sniffed at the wind, trying to catch the scent of an animal. Suddenly, she smelt human. She skidded to a stop, sniffing harder, creeping towards where it was coming from every time the wind favored her.
(I work fast food XD never thought it looked hard but it's a lot harder than it look lol. I normally work 6-8 hour shifts but last week I had an 11 hour shift and missed my break the next day. Management is like, degrading lol)
Clovis runs a hand through his unruly brown hair and pokes at his fire sleepily.
I should eat before I fall asle….. asleep….
His eyes drift closed and he lays his head back against the tree, dozed off.
(App, plz dont eat him)(XD)
(Ugh, I worked in retail and I hated it, and I knew fast food would be worse. I swore to myself I would never go into it unless I was starving or something.)
Appolyon crept into a tiny clearing, hearing the crackle of fire. She gasped, seeing Clovis. Her tail whipped around, either in anxiousness or excitement…
(XD She won't but I need to ask if she and Clovis left off on good or bad terms last they saw each other.)
(Yeeeeah)(I live in a super tiny town and it was my only option to raise money to get out of here XD)(I love my family but I’m done with this town.)
In his sleep, Clovis turns his head to the side with a sigh, moving his legs only a little. One hand rests on his stomach and the other on the ground beside him. Despite the fact he’s leaning against a tree, he looks like the definition of peace.
(Probably good terms)(last thing they were doing was hiding from guards or something? My idea is they were separated by force/never made it back to the group)
(I'm so sorry I haven't answered for a while >-< I got sick over the weekend and I'm still kinda out of it)
She nodded, pulling her bag onto her back and glancing around the shop one more time, "Yeah. I've been traveling alone for a while…ever since the incident." Fiona made her way to the door, only glancing at her old group member once more, "Well, I wish you luck on finding Clovis. One more thing though, is there any place good in this town to crash for the night?"
(Aw, I hope you're feeling better!! <3)
