Quest crimes for a snow leopard
Who: Silverash And You!
What: Quest time
When: [gesturing vaguely]
Where: [even more vague gesturing]
Warnings: Will be in titles as they come up.
I. Purrloin used Assist!
[ Enciodes isn't entirely keen on letting his husband know what he's up to (getting him a present), so he doesn't opt for enlisting people's help through the notebook. Instead, he's truly embracing his businessman with the business plan persona and going door to door to personally ask you that if you need any assistance that you come personally to Enciodes. In general, of course, his door is always open, but particularly right now, as he is on a quest to get a gift for someone important to him.
He ask politely you not let Gnosis know. ]
II. Don't woof ("Woof")
[ Otherwise, you'll find Enciodes outside with his snow leopard and Rusty both. He seems to be gauging how Unci will react to the dog, though she seems far more interested in rubbing her head on Silverash than actually interacting with the dog. That's... a good thing, he thinks? Hm... ]

No, what he cares about is the snow leopard. His focus is instantly on the cat. It looks like a prowler, but smaller. He's interested in Rusty too, to an extent, but he's far more drawn to the cat.
He's staring thoughtfully from a decent distance, his eyes locked on the fluffy white tiny monster.
He wants it. ]
no subject
Enciodes doesn't notice Affogato immediately because he is very focused on very wiggly baby Unci, but it doesn't take him long to glance off in Affogato's direction. There's a brief contemplation as he tries to recall who this person is in his Address Book of a brain, but he remembers that they didn't introduce themselves at the meeting, despite Silverash's request, which already makes him just a little leery. But... hrmm... ]
If you're worried about it, she doesn't scratch. Maybe a playful bite or two, but nothing that hurts. You're welcome to come play with her.
no subject
It's almost like he teleports. Affogato never hurries; he's elegant, he's refined, he's GRACEFUL, and will go at his own pace and leisure. But that man sure does fucking hustle to close the distance, so he can instantly crouch down and offer his hands to the cat, cooing.
And if it's like any other cat, if he gets ignored, he won't be bothered because. ]
no subject
It’s a lot. Enciodes looks tired— ]
no subject
Ooh~ So fierce! A tiny snow prowler! My my, whatever shall I do when I get caught?
[ And yes, when she gets close enough, he will tsk tsk tsk his fingers against her butt and tail when she scoots around him.
Sorry, Enciodes. This is his now, he's confiscated it from the Greater Good. Mainly his Greater Good, cause he wants it. Ugh, though he guess he SHOULD glance one eye up to the owner standing there. It's almost like being looked at by a real cat, slitted pupil and all. Unimpressed look, that says Affogato clearly doesn't think highly of your cat handling skills. ]
Yours?
no subject
She is. Though she may tire me out sometimes, I adore her dearly. She has been prone to causing issues for some of the other residences, however. I think getting her accustomed to everyone might be in our best interest.
no subject
She is a darling. Young, I take it?
[ He has no concept of normal animal ages. And he also moves to look at Rusty. Weird. Where's it's icing? But he can't help but glance back at Unci, thoughtful. ]
Is this the first time she has been around other animals and people?
no subject
You would think so, seeing her act like that. But, no, she's been around plenty of people. But she is young, so she's granted some leniency in that regard.
no subject
The fact she's socialized makes him laugh, smiling. ]
Ah, a true feline then.
[ Young and this size though... ]
How large will she get?
no subject
And Enciodes makes a gesture with his hands to signify that of a Very Large cat. She will get to be a big girl one day. Hopefully less destructive by that point, because good lord. ] Without her tail, about this big.
no subject
Ah he's stealing her when Enciodes isn't looking. Though he is mildly impressed with how big she will get. Snow Prowlers are rather... Larger, after all. Cookies. ]
Is that large for your species of cats?
no subject
[ Unci pulls her head away whenever he reaches forward, yet allows herself to be pet all the same. It's a very confusing behavior, but young cats rarely make any sense. Once she's had a few pets, she puts her big, clumsy paws on Affogato's wrist to pull his hand down and drag her rough sandpaper tongue over his palm. ]
...Is your world not familiar with cats?
no subject
Even if that tongue is painful against flesh. Who knew! Cookie dough is far tougher. ]
Well~ My world is a world of sweets. I'm one of the Cookies. You must imagine cats such as this [ a little grab at the tongue to snag it and have it drawn out ridiculously when she pulls her head back next ] do not exist. Our "house cats" are made of butter cream or fondant, and the wild ones are...
[ He considers how big a cookie might be, then holds his finger off the ground at roughly six inches. ]
We are, perhaps, this big. Your little girl would be considered a full grown Prowler for us. And made of cake and cream.
[ So that she won't get bigger than humans is something of a relief, actually. ]
I
[Says Wolfwood as he opens the Vashington home to one Enciodes SilverAsh, leaning against the doorframe.]
You gotta help people to get this quest thing done. Amiright?
[Because he knows this oh so well. He's had to do the same, except Christmas themed.]
no subject
You've got it in one. That said, it's for a good reason. Not for the whole Grove, of course, but it's important to me all the same. If it means that I can help some of the residents here out, then it's two birds, one stone as far as I'm concerned.
no subject
[Hm! And yeah no we don't talk about what Unci did to his floors-]
Well. It's for Gnosis, yeah? He's been goin' out of his way t'help me lately, so...whatever I need t'do, I'm in.
[...]
Just don't tell anybody I did this and we're even, got it?
no subject
Is there something particular you've got in mind?
no subject
But then, as he hears a soft whine behind him, he gets an idea and lets the door open a bit further. That's when Angelina comes bounding out, running around Enciodes and barking.]
You can give Ange here a walk every mornin' for a couple days. Gives me a chance to sleep in a little for a change.
Sound fair?
i
If you're still looking to offer assistance, I may have something for you.
no subject
Certainly. What did you have in mind?
no subject
no such politeness as to return the bow.]
It would greatly benefit me to help with your work in the burned part of town. And if that doesn't qualify as you assisting me, then you could investigate the town with me, either during or after the fact.
