There’s a new demon in Chicago. Not that new, though. He’s been here before - a life time ago. This was where his father once lived, where he’d spent his late teens and early twenties before he’d grown tired of the place and moved on. As much as he liked Chicago, there was just nothing here to interest him. Nothing until now ( Read more... )

The smell of raw flesh may be enough to make any HUMAN sick, but right now there's a dogbeast-sized puppy with three heads who's whining and wants in on some of that action.

Out of the woods comes Trinity McFasater, who normally is a quite nice girl but her heads are all cranky because she hasn't eaten recent. Her middle head is howling sadly, while the right head snaps at the sleepy left head. It's hard to walk straight with three heads all fighting one another for control of the thinking, and so she ends up toppling over only a few feet from Rufus, her legs all caught up in a big mess. The right head begins howling with the middle one, and the left head just whimpers sadly.

She's not a very efficient beast, and she just wants a snack.

I CAN HAS A TRIN! :D :D :D thesoundofblood March 15 2011, 18:45:57 UTC
Rufus doesn't notice the puppy-beast approach at first. The deer he caught is way too tasty for him to pay attention to much else. And he hears the whimpering and raises his head curiously. He looks at her curiously, twitching - his fiery mane shaking lazily.

He licks at the blood on his lips, a low growl of amusement as she trips up in front of him and guesses that the poor pup must be hungry too. And although the deer is small and won't be enough to fill him - he's happy enough to share because the hungry, howling pup is absolutely adorable.

With a soft roar of hello, he rips off a leg with ease and tosses her it.

At the roar, all three of Trin's heads stop making noise. She's run with behemoth packs before--back when she actually dated a behemoth, a long long time ago (okay really only it was like two years ago, but when you're as young as Trin is, time passes pretty slowly). Most behemoths wouldn't share a kill with a failpuppy like her, not ever. So when she sees the leg, she's mostly confused. All three of her heads are torn up about what to do it. Eat it? Slink away? Eat it and then slink away? She's so confused.

Luckily, she's really, really hungry, and so as she stumbles to her four feet, the decision is pretty made for her as the right head lunges for the leg. She eats with varying levels of decorum--as much decorum as a three-headed dog can have, anyway. Pretty soon the leg is all gone, and Trin's licking her lips, pretty damn satisfied. She crouches in a submissive position and lets out a soft bark of thanks. She doesn't know what he wants in exchange for that, but she owes him big time. The deer wasn't that big, she knows that, and ( ... )

Luckily enough for Trin - Rufus isn't like most other Behemoths. As selfish and childish as he can be, he strives to be different from others of their kind. In his old age (although, the narration adds he will never say that himself. He is young and beautiful, dammit - anyway), Rufus has learned that being aggressive and not keeping the peace is one way ticket to getting yourself killed.

He's learned to be a peaceful demon and tries not to be ruled by his Calling. If that means sharing a meal, then so be it. If it's helped him live this long, he doesn't intend to stop now.

Rufus watches her in amusement before returning to his own share. It doesn't take him long to finish and afterwards, he's sat licking the blood from his paws. He is a giant kitty, after all. He likes to be clean. He looks up at the bark and slowly rises to his feet. He reaches forward, gently nips the back of her neck and roars back a 'You're welcome' in reply. Well. If he could talk right now, he would ask her to be his groupie. No, really. He seriously would. ( ... )

/late tag isn't very long :( ohshiny_tomatos March 24 2011, 16:03:38 UTC
Parker doesn't like touch. Especially by strangers. She also isn't easily charmed by...well, anyone. When she's bumped into she stops and frowns, her eyes narrowing quite a bit.

"Watch where you're going!" She snaps. She doesn't care about his smile or where his head is. Bumping into people is rude. Oh, but she does happen to have her cat with her. Sophie the Kitten is perched on her shoulder, and Sophie the Kitten doesn't look too pleased either.

Though he did say her cat was cool, so maybe it's not all bad. She pauses a moment. "She knows she's cool. You're still rude!"

Rufus raises his eyebrows, well this kid sure is on the defensive. Wanderer too. Ahh, well - he doesn’t mind then. He’s heard a lot about Chicago and how difficult it can be sometimes - especially on all these Wanderers that fall through all the time. Never fear, Rufus is here to bring Chicago all the happy!

“I’m rather sorry, hun,” he says very apologetically, “I didn’t mean to knock you, I swear,” He makes a peace sign with one hand, “I’m all for love and peace, not war - y’know?”

He didn’t actually notice the kitten at first, to be honest. But when he does, he actually squees a little. He could never, ever eat anything a cute as a kitten. He tilts his head with amusement.

“I was addressing you, hun - actually,” he says with a small laugh, “But the kitty’s a real cool cutie too. What’s her name?”

"Are you a hippie?" She's seen hippies on TV and knows the love and peace thing is what they're all about.

If there is one way to start your way onto Parker's good side, it's to talk about her kitten and show interest in her. As such she beams a little wider and scratches the kitty on the head.

"She's Sophie, but she's not the real Sophie. I take care of her."

Rufus is going to laugh at that. It's not the first time he's heard that and no matter how many times it's said - it will never get old. He scratches at his beard for a few moments and shakes his head. "You don't have to be a hippie to be a peaceful soul," he tells her. "I don't really look like a hippie, I like to shower,"

Well, even still. He kinda is a hippie. A hippie in a suit. Or something. :D

He smiles at the kitten, "Sophie. Ahh, named after a friend from back home," he says with a nod, "From the french, meaning wisdom. Smart kitten named after a smart lady?"
