[h3]Leon Hyksos[/h3] Interacting with: Evelyn/Donovan[@AzureKnight] Badland Heist[hr] What transpires, bumping into Evelyn and meeting with Donovan himself in the halls was not the whole detailed story. Well, not from Leon's perspective at least. It was rather much more embarrassing and awkward than it should have been! Leon did bump into her in the halls. Yes, but not the way it's played out to be. The estranged fae was able to perceive the incoming collision before he made contact with her due to his 'danger sense' kicking in. Rather than making the witch awkwardly fall on her back and look like a heartless jerk in doing so. Leon catches the troubled girl by her waist with his cape. Saving her, preventing the boisterous young lady from greeting the floor with her spine and tailbone. The whole sequence played out straight from a cheesy romance novel. A fateful encounter between two people; facing each other with their gazes intertwined and bodies locked together for a mere second. It's pretty dreamy, right? well not exactly.. The rogue elf wasn't exactly prince charming material. "...." Leon couldn't care less about her and greeted her with the same deadpan look on his face and helps her get back on her feet as soon as Donovan arrived to hash out their mission. And to make matters worst, He didn't even ask if she was okay! [quote]He then held his hand out to Leon; he’d continue his explanation whether the Fae accepted the shake or not.[/quote] Leon did reaches out his hand as a means of formality to the entrepreneur and listened to the details the plant owner has to say. [center]~[/center] As soon as Donavon finished their briefing, Leon simply nodded, turning his attention to the witch. [color=00aeef]"By the sound of it, the only possible conclusion I have is that they have a rat in their network to aid these master thieves .. an inside job If you will. "[/color] Leon spoke out. [color=00aeef]"It's true that kind of magitech is kinda scary, sucking up mana and adding it to their own. It can be beneficial to those who upholds the peace, and harmful to those who use it for personal gain."[/color] The fae muttered while recollecting the deal he made with Kiff, no wonder the librarian wants this weaponry, this stuff is potent! [color=00aeef]"I assumed we'll be working together, My name is Leon, an esper, I stab people physically and mentally."[/color] He nonchalantly introduces himself. [color=00aeef]"You should be more careful next time, and collect your thoughts.. you seemed troubled a moment ago. As an esper, my advice is to strengthen your resolve, or else you'll drown in other people's thoughts if you don't focus on your own." [/color]Leon said, almost showing empathy to his fellow reaver, Evelyn. [color=00aeef]"I don't want this delicate covert mission to go south due to the people I work with aren't 100% emotionally stable." [/color] He added. And just like that, the rogue fae ruined a piece of encouraging advice turning it into something mission-oriented. What a strange way to boost one's morale. [color=00aeef]"Shall we go and plan this out?"[/color]
