-Laina-

The small girl stared blankly at Genoveve for a few seconds as she swallowed the bird whole. Well...she couldn't exactly comment on that. She had seen...done, some stranger things as well. That wasn't what was bothering the girl. What was bothering her, was the fact that she was certain she was feeling another presence in the room with them. There was only two of them here though, aside from Saevire standing outside the door. Not that it mattered in the grand scheme of things. One question at a time.

"Thank you, Genoveve." Laina said, bowing her head slightly. "I am sorry my ooboshu...visit, interrupted your dinner, But this question is one I must have an answer too." The smaller girl looked at Genoveve, her blue eyes studying her for a few more seconds before she continued. She was thinking of the best way to word this, so that any words the human girl wouldn't understand didn't slip out. That, and she was just plain unsure how to ask this.

Perhaps a direct method would work best, then.

"Do you love anyone?" She fixed Genoveve with her usual somewhat expressionless face, apparently completely serious. The phrase could probably be taken completely wrong taken out of context, but context was not to be found. Laina had perhaps gotten her question a bit wrong, after all. She was here to ask Genoveve about emotions in general, and from what she knew 'love' was one of the more common human emotions. She would like to experience it for herself, so she could finally at least have some understanding of emotions.

~Senna~

Senna walked through the dark streets easily enough. Night wasn't something she was unfamiliar with. In fact, it was her preferable time of the day. Less people about and it was easier to do things. Not to mention, the beasties and witches usually came out at night. A small smirk ran across her face as she imagine how fun it'd be to run into a witch tonight. Her axe hadn't tasted witch blood in quite some time. She would need to remedy that soon. She pulled her mask over her face, fully intending to go hunting tonight.

As soon as she found her bloody 'partner'.

At least she had a good idea of where his useless self was at. Probably at a tavern attempting to get drunk, but failing because his tab was too big. Thankfully, it didn't take the hunter long to reach the tavern. She tossed open the door rather violently, taking a quick look around for her partner, easily finding him at one of the tables near the door. Senna walked over, her boots making quite a bit of noise as she walked across the wooden floor towards the table.

"Oi," She bent over, placing a hand on the table rather loudly. "Clay," She barked. "I'm out makin' sure my axe is sharp enough to behead a witch, and what are you here doing?" She growled, green eyes glaring daggers at him. "Pissin' off Bobby again with your tab?" She stood up straight, certain she had his attention now.

"Hope you had fun, because I'm goin' hunting and you're comin' with me." She folded her arms across her chest. She didn't seem like she was gonna take no for an answer.

@Rune_Alchemist Yay! Genoveve swallowing a bird will now be noticed!! XD

@agentmanatee

Lel.

I think Genoveve is the one that's going to be completely baffled after I get this post up :D

@Ellion

Hope Clay doesn't mind a bit of manhandling :D

~Senna~

Ah, Seren's folly. It had served as her home for the past week. A quaint, nice little place where she could unwind and relax when she wasn't on a hunt. Plenty of taverns, whores, and other things she could use to unwind. A smithy to buy supplies to take care of her axe, shops to buy stuff so she could more effectively do her job, and even the church, which was where she currently was standing. Now, She wasn't religious by a long shot. In fact, she could care less about gods and demons. That said, she was trained as a hunter of the church, and she had to at least respect religion, at least a little.

That, and she always found herself oddly calm whenever she was in a place of worship. Something about the places just...eased her spirit, ever so slightly. Perhaps it was a divine presence. Maybe there was something to all of these religious whack jobs. Or maybe she was just thinking crazy stuff because she hadn't had a drink in a few hours.

Senna sighed, shaking her head.

The black clad hunter was leaning against the wall of the church, arms folded against her chest, legs crossed as she simply took in her surroundings. Her axe was firmly where it should be, firmly at her side in its normal state in its sheathe. Her eyes were cast towards the ground, her cap hiding the features of her face, though her mask was hanging loosely around her neck. She only wore that when out on a hunt.

She had to question why she kept coming back to the churches. Even if they were oddly relaxing, they didn't really serve any purpose other than a small distraction. Senna tilted her head up, looking at the ceiling, turning her head from the ceiling to the floor. Bah, she was so goddamn bored, but there wasn't much she could do at the moment. With an annoyed grunt, she left the wall.

"Might as well go get a drink and see if I can find that lazy ass partner of mine." She grumbled, heading out of the church and onto the main street. She'd probably find him in a bar. If not, she can drink there until he shows his lazy ass face, then she can drag him into the forest to hunt for witches.

-Laina Terminus-

In a quiet part of the Castle, was Laina's room. She had requested one that wouldn't be bothered by most people - she preferred silence over the noisiness of the rest of the castle. Her room was simple, though it seemed to be a bit of a mess. Several shelves with open books and lose sheets of paper inscribed with odd Runes littered the floor and other open areas. What the symbols could possibly mean, were anyone's guess. Only those who had studied the ancient runes would be able to understand them, and such knowledge usually was not for the frail of mind. The eldritch truth could often drive one mad.

Not that it mattered to one with their blood flowing through her veins. She could understand them somewhat, but their direct meaning always escaped her. Like a word that was on the tip of your tongue. An important memory you tried to recall yet couldn't. She knew she should understand them, know them, but yet the meaning and things always eluded her. Yet, she was compelled to write them anyways. Sometimes, though, she did know what combination and order of runes would do something when made with the right sacrifice.

Again, she didn't know how she knew, she just did. One day, she would unravel the mystery of that. But for now, she should probably leave the bed and get dressed.

The white-haired girl rose slowly from her bed, blankly staring at her room, a small yawn escaping her lips as she tossed the covers gently off of her and left her bed. She should maybe thing about sleeping with clothes on...would cut down the time it took to get ready for the day...

A thought for later.

For now, she went about getting dressed. She had a rather sleepless night, though that was nothing unusual. Sleep was a difficult thing for her sometimes, be it troublesome dreams or general restlessness.

"Saevire..." her voice quietly called out as she did so. The hulking knight made its presence known at the sound of his masters voice. Someone could have easily mistaken him for a decorative suit of armor, if they didn't know him. He was standing completely still until he turned his head in the direction of her voice. It moved slowly, the man moving to right in front of Laina. He then reached down...and gave her a little pat on the head.

"...Thank you." She said, putting on her hat. With that, she left her room. There was something she wanted to speak to one of the other witches about today. One by the name of Genoveve Boudicca. She had a very important question to ask the other girl. Something to her, was a matter of life and death and one of the reasons she had a rather sleepless night. Questions must have answers, and she wanted an answer for her question.

Her cloak trailed the ground behind her, with Saevire following after - the knights metal armor moving fairly silently for something as big as he was. She headed right to Genoveve's room, and it didn't take her long to get there. Motioning for Saevire to wait outside, she entered the room.

"Greetings, Genoveve." Laina quietly said as she walked into her room, giving the other girl a curtsy as Saevire closed the door. talking was sometimes difficult for her. Not because she couldn't speak well, but because words sometimes got jumbled with other things. She still had a habit of saying odd things for words. "Apologies for the intrusion, but,"

It was then Laina noticed what exactly Genoveve was doing. A bird was sitting on the other girls tongue, almost as if she had intended to eat it. Laina simply cocked her head quizzically as she observed the situation. She wasn't sure what the other girl was doing, but, well, she couldn't exactly judge.

"...I do apologize If I am...interrupting something. If you will spare a moment, I have...a..kn'a....a question." A word she didn't entirely mean to say slipped out. She knew what it meant of course, but she repeated herself for Genoveve.

So Genoveve is being weird... all aboard the eating small birds whole cause voices in your head tell you too train!

@agentmanatee

And Laina walks in, completely oblivious to the fact eating a bird would be considered odd for most people xD

They can be, yes :3

@Ellion

@Ellion

So are Senna and Clay hunting partners?~

If so, my first post with her will probably be her looking for his lazy ass xD

@Rune_AlchemistI think it would be epic for your characters 'knight' to fight fenros. both are hulking men. though Fenros is five inches shorter

@Aerandir

Oh, I fully intended for Saevir to fight Fenros at some point :D

That, would be an incredibly fun battle.

He isn't unmotivated. Just selectively motivated. But they could totally try the partner thing.

@Ellion

Pfft.

Same thing to Senna. Unless you're 100% motivated 100% of the time, you're unmotivated.

<Snipped quote by Rune_Alchemist>

However, they would be hilarious

@Ellion

True. Very true.

They could be hunting partners, if you want, but she probably wouldn't do anything else with him xD
Well. Maybe not at first. She could possibly learn to appreciate his unmotivated attitude xD
