-see shit in front of me.

[It begins with one eloquent Claymore, traveling through a deeper part of the mist from the looks of it. To one side, a glimpse of gold, armor and hair and the man belonging to both moving at a casual, almost bored pace.]

How is it that such a pretty mouth says such vulgar things on a regular basis.

Ha! Sorry, I had no ( Read more... )

[It's no accident that this arena match is being broadcast. Helen has handed over her Forge so that no one would miss this match.]

[You're welcome.]

[One would think that she'd learn to be a little more careful with her possessions though, considering that their mountain of an opponent wields a large blade bearing a symbol that's familiar to some ( Read more... )

[Yeah, it's Helen, looking as comfortable as usual with her feet propped up on a table. She has an apple in her hand, one bite taken from it and more in between her words.These baskets again, huh. Guess that means business is gonna be a little on the slow side of few days. Can't really blame people for not wanting to buy booze when they have a ( Read more... )

[The video doesn't reveal much at first - just rooftops flying by. Actually, it's the one holding the Forge that's moving. And Helen's moving fast, trying to catch up with someone.]

Where the hell did he go?

[She stops at the very edge of a building, not even out of breath for all her exertion. Or maybe she's just holding, listening for the sound ( Read more... )

Ha. Between the new staff and someone besides me to mash his thumb with a hammer, looks like the Foxhole's got some expanding in its future. [DRINK UP, ANATOLE.] It's about damn time too, after all the patch-up jobs I've done on it every time this place gets a little crazy. Hey Dene, any changes you'd like to see? The place is half yours, after all ( Read more... )

[It isn't envy that Helen's green with. That's quite another sin. Like many, she just overindulged a big over the weekend.]

Ugh. No more apples for awhile. Teresa, you still want 'em? And what is it about this place that likes to take away or ruin the stuff I love most ( Read more... )

[Helen's sitting in the middle of a rather bloody floor. But it's the arena floor. And most of the blood is dried. That makes it better somehow. Some of the blood was probably even hers, but she's healed by now: arms, legs, and eyeballs are all present and accounted for.Yeah...no idea why I spent the last few nights here. I'm just glad no one got ( Read more... )

Not the only ones who what, eat people? Yeah, yeah, tell me about it. It's pretty damn sad when you're used to fighting things like that.

The thing I wanna know is...what the hell did those things put on their blades? That stuff could put me out of business.

[Who needs booze when there's...elf toxin.I'm just happy to be alive. So this weekend I' ( Read more... )

Why the hell can't I keep any good help around here? Guys wanna sample the refreshments, but ask them to wipe down a table or two and they disappear. Deneve, looks like you get Employee of the Month again ( Read more... )

It's too quiet around here. What, has 'fun' became a dirty word or something?

[Helen's pretty sure she can come up with some worse ones.I guess it's to be expected when it's the big mouths and the nice guys who disappear. Oh, that reminds me...Rin! Glad you came back out of the woodwork, kid ( Read more... )
