He kinda looks like a boat made of hate.
Characters: Gene, Jackie, Alex, Miles, Aly, and YOOOOUU!!
Date: July
Location: Keeliai et al
Situation: Everything. All the things. All of them.
Warnings/Rating: Will be added as necessary.
A. [Gene] | throughout Keeliai | throughout July | open
Gene has decided to take it upon himself to be Public Relations for the KPD in the aftermath of the cultist attack. Why? Because he has no regard for his own sanity. He can be seen talking to kedan; some of them at least respect that he's in the Guild of Justice and Arbitration.
Someone please come save him from his own bad decisions.
B. [Jackie] | the Golden Koi | throughout July | open
Jackie's trying to run the Koi as best he can these days. He's still sad - his heart hurts because Brigid is gone - but he knows he has to press on. People leave here, and sometimes they come back, but he's not going to count on it.
C. [Alex] | Water Sector | throughout July | open
Alex may be part of the Foreigners Guild now, but that doesn't mean he's not involved with the city. On the contrary. He's more than willing to talk to the kedan, joke with them, and haggle. He spends a lot of time in the Water Sector; it reminds him of what he considers home, in a way. He'd spent a lot of time in the Far East, after all, and while Keeliai as a whole reminded him of it, the Water Sector did most of all.
They'd always called him bright and diplomatic, and honestly, the Foreigners could use a shot in the arm of diplomacy right now.
Of course, he's not without his own agenda. The cultist attack had been terrible, but it had also taught him some things about their tactics and their motivations (even if the culprits had had nothing of use to say). He's making careful note of everything everyone says, every little twitch and turn of phrase, looking for something incriminating.
D. [Miles] | throughout Keeliai | throughout July | open
Hell. Goddamn. Fire.
Going home had maybe been the worst choice Miles could have made, and he'd made more than his fair share of shitty choices. Because now? Now he was truly a human-shaped abomination of science. And even more of a murderer than he had been, to boot. So he's trying to look chipper - overly so. In fact, it's downright unusual, considering how single-minded he'd been about the cultists before. Now it's obvious that he has something else entirely on his mind.
E. [Aly] | throughout Keeliai | throughout July | open
Aly, meanwhile, has been taking to Keeliai like a fish to water (pardon). She's in a place where things stay put so she's going to keep learning the city. It's been a few months, but that doesn't mean she's going to stop scouring the area...and maybe climbing things she shouldn't.
F. [Gene] | House Spicy Iron Dragon | July 10 | closed to Tony
Once again, Gene's on the roof.
He was glad he'd made it easily-accessible; it was a quiet spot for him to think, and it also let him be alone. Him being on the roof was a sort of signal for that, that he needed to clear his mind. But sometimes it also meant that he needed to talk and wasn't sure how. As usual, he'd be the last one to know which one of those it was.
G. [Aly] | Fire Sector | July 7 | closed to Valdis
Aly's on a building. She likes to be tall.
Also, it kind of makes her feel like Batman, especially in the middle of the night when things are lit only by the fire fountains. She doesn't crouch, cowled like the man-bat, but sits on the corner of a roof, her foot dangling, watching people walk by.
H. [Gene] | Healers' Guild | July 3 | closed to Raine
This ka thing wouldn't get off of his mind, so Gene figured he'd consult someone else about it. He knew for sure that Raine had one, so when he has the time, he goes to the Guild, requests to speak to her, and waits, suddenly nervous. Pepper might soften what she says to him out of affection, but Raine will tell him things bluntly.

From what he had seen before, Devin had assumed she led a life not so unlike his, and this just clarified in more detail what she'd been through. Fate or accident, whatever it was, had taken too much from her at too young an age. Really, no one ought to ever have to be under the thumb of evil, but life was never that simple. A normal person would find a way to comfort her, or to commiserate. Certainly, he felt sympathy and understanding. Maybe a little pride, too, for the fire in her and what she'd chosen to fight for.
None of that showed.
"You're the kind of person I'm fighting for, Aly. Because you're a far better person than I ever could be, and all I bring with me is death. And that's exactly why you need to leave me alone," Devin said quietly, sweeping past her.
no subject
Then she paused. "Oh, Zeus on toast, you're like that too, aren't you? You hate yourself and you see the good in everyone else."
no subject
There was a single laugh, but it was hollow. "It's far simpler than that, and far more complicated." Beat. "What 'thing'?"
Devin is correct. She would have shoryuken'd him.
Then, Ah, shit. She hadn't meant to let that slip. She laughed just as hollowly, just the once, and conjured up a fireball, no bigger than a quarter, dancing from fingertip to fingertip on her right hand. The fire was bloodred. "I suppose you think this is normal, do you? For someone who only read about magic in storybooks and didn't think it could be at all real until six months ago, for someone who's normally frightened to death of fire because I know how horrifying it can be?"
no subject
Devin's eyes followed the tiny ball of fire with interest rather than fear. He has no great love of flames, but he was not much more afraid of it than anything else. He just didn't like it anywhere near his body.
"No, I didn't assume it to be 'normal'. I assumed it to be who you are," he remarked placidly. "It's beyond just a pyrokinetic ability, then," Devin surmised. "It's altered your personality."
