9th Fight

Barton's in the park today. This isn't unusual, generally, except for two things. One, there's a dog with her. A German Shepard to be exact. It looks friendly and playful, and it's also blue. Yep, totally blue. The other odd things is, that to people who know her, Barton is smiling and obviously enjoying playing with her new pet. The dog

[Mao, having just finished practicing with his sword, is now watching Barton and her dog with an interested expression on his face.

It's quickly wiped off when the ball hits him. On the head.]

Watch where you're throwing that!

[nosoul_nomind]

[Erk. Well, it's not heavy, at least.]

Ya oughta pay more attention. Didn't see ya there.

[The big dog bounds over though, picks up the ball and brings it over to Mao. Surely he wants to play too!]

[demonoaths]

Hmph. Like I wasn't so obvious.

[He wasn't, exactly. He gives the dog a wary glance before leaning against a tree.]

Anyway, what are you doing here?

[nosoul_nomind]

Teachin' him how to play fetch. Seems pretty good at it already.

[He throws the ball off again, propelling it far, and the dog happily chases after.]

[demonoaths]

How'd you get a dog? Last time I checked, you didn't have one. And why is it blue?

[nosoul_nomind]

I was plannin' on buying one, but this girl called Clod made him from magic. Weird, but it worked.

[demonoaths]

[ping!]

Magic, you say? Who's this Clod?

[nosoul_nomind]

Yeah. She's this girl I met. We were talkin', and I brought up I was planning on getting one. She offered to make me one. I was curious, so I said yeah. And here he is. [She pats the dog on the head.] Not really what I had in mind, but it worked.

[demonoaths]

How'd she make the dog?

[nosoul_nomind]

Some kinda magic I never saw before. Somethin' with "silhouette" and "mirage" stuff, but I think that translates into two different kinds of energy. She used her own and mine to do it.
