Hey, y'all, y'know th' mice? Yeah, uh...don't go beatin' 'em up. They kinda make more. Red ain't none too happy 'bout that.

wtf?

...This was not what I pictured when I was told we would be fighting monsters.

[The Warrior is trying to protect his capybara from the mice. The poor thing has sustained a couple of nasty bites and is cowering in one corner.]

I agree. And no, I have not.

[His voice is annoyed. Normally he'd just pull out one of his magic attacks, but his items have been rendered useless and his Light abilities are locked off. And he can't use his sword. This is very irritating.]

If someone discovers a method, I am sure that they will broadcast it.

Hears hopin'. Little critters bite hard. Magic'd be real nice.

It would.

[The Warrior thinks. The easiest magic spell to recreate by mundane means...]

Perhaps we could recreate the effect. Fire would be the simplest.

My pod. A moment...

[Lucas may hear the sounds of a scuffle as the Warrior sweeps the jack-mice to one side and leads his capybara outside.]

I will meet you at the temple entrance. Unless you can think of a more likely place to obtain supplies?

[The Warrior hasn't gotten out much.]

Sure. Meet y'there.

[The mice are everywhere as Lucas makes his way to the temple entrance and waits.

Red eyes the mice hungrily.]

[The Warrior is kneeling by the entrance, alternately petting his cowering capybara and sweeping the mice away. When he sees Lucas approach, he stands up.]

Are you the one I was speaking to?

[When he stands, Lucas catches sight of The Warrior's hair. Aaaaaand pulls a knife he got out of the armory. He keeps his distance, glowing violet eyes fixed on the other man, knife raised.

No, he's not home. There's a distinct possibility he's not a wizard. Hell, chances are good that the other man is the one he had just been planning with. But as far as Lucas was concerned, better safe than sorry in the presence of someone who looks like a wizard.]

Who are you?

[...Wait, what? The Warrior almost reaches for his sword - in fact, his hand actually starts moving, before he stops himself forcibly. He has done nothing wrong, and he doubts that drawing his own weapon is going to help resolve the situation.

Still. When he sorts this out, he wants an explanation for this (to his mind) unprovoked hostility.]

I am the Warrior of Light. I was the one with whom you were discussing the use of fire on these creatures.

[He gestures to the mice.]

Where y'from?

[The distance remains and the knife still is drawn.

Red's on Lucas's shoulder flapping like crazy. Lucas, please pay attention to your bird as he is trying to tell you to quit it.]

[Oh, for the love of Cosmos.]

I do not know what quarrel you think you have with me, but I can assure you that I have done nothing that warrants a knife being drawn on me. My only concern is to get rid of these creatures.

[Somehow, he doesn't think that Lucas will believe him when he says he doesn't actually know where he's from.]

You a fuckin' wizard?

[The most important and obvious question. Lucas fails at interrogation.]

[Of course it's at this tense moment that Zack comes running up to the two, hopping over the mice as he goes.]

Whoa! What's up with you guys?

bellator_lucis January 22 2011, 07:39:34 UTC
[What? If he were a wizard he'd be wearing robes, man.]

No.

[He lifts his sword for emphasis, though he won't be pointing it at Lucas.]

I am a warrior, not a mage.
