[PRP] Sugar Me Up, Laddie [Saya/Cearney]

[Kanth]

Sitting outside was so relaxing, especially when one was nearby the river, on a picnic bench, admiring her nails.

Of course, she was admiring nature as well, but she was a part of nature. At least, in her mind she was. She was important. and that's all that mattered.

Of course, being a faerie, she grew bored after lounging for a bit, eyes scanning the area as her head tilted and neck cracking with a satisfactory pop. Breathing out a sigh of relief, she leaned back against the table and crossed her legs, wondering if anything would delight themselves in becoming her amusement.

I feel terrible for what Cearney's about to endure. :c

 

[Seiana_ZI]

Being outside was not particularly relaxing.

Sure, Cearney had certainly relished the outdoors back at home. The outdoors had been lush and green and full of hidden troves of riches at home, but here it was just ... boring. The orange sun still shined just as brightly, but there was no adventure to be found in the outdoors of areas near the city. It was almost too pristine, like monsters had already eaten up every possible bad thing about it.

Still, it was not exactly bad out here. He could live with it, at the very least. Maybe he was just being too grouchy. He had certainly found adventure while he was here, perhaps a bit too much... Cearney chanced a glance down to the bracelet that adorned his wrist.

When he glanced back up, he took a quick glance around the area to see what--or who--was in the area. Was that ghoul seriously sitting there admiring her nails? He snorted under his breath. Vanity.

(Like he should talk.)

Kanth

Cearney says bring it.

 

[Kanth]

Her gaze slid to the side and she smiled, in a kind of predatory way that one smiles when they've found their victim.

And Sayael most certainly found hers.

"Hellooo~oooo," She called, standing up and gliding over, casting shadow over his form as she stood next to him. "Would you like to be my date for tonight? It is rather dull here, and I find myself growing bored." Her eyes slid over his form, as if she was sizing him up and picking him apart. He had red hair almost like Marosa's, and Saya found herself admiring it, almost tempted to reach out and run her fingers through it.

She refrained from doing so. It wouldn't do to make a bad first impression.

Seiana_ZI

 

[Seiana_ZI]

That smile was ugly. Did she not look at herself when she showed those wicked teeth?

Perhaps he just instinctively reeled at the predatory invasiveness of her nature, especially with the way she glided over to him and stood dominant with her shadow over his form. It took all of his muster to not reposition himself to cast a shadow over her, instead crossing his arms and quirking an eyebrow.

Was this ghoul serious?

Cearney gave an incredulous, short snort of a laugh. "Nah."

Kanth

 

[Kanth]

That answer made her blink slowly, her head tilting in a confused fashion.

"... nah?" She repeated, quite dumbly, as if she'd never actually heard the word before. No one had actually told her no before, so this was completely new territory for her.

Seiana_ZI

 

[Seiana_ZI]

Cearney watched her confusion and snorted again, a smirk spreading on his lips. "Correct. Nah."

He shifted a bit, crossing his arms over his chest and taking a step backwards, increasing the distance between the two of them. Arrogance, however, kept him from outright walking away. Watching her reaction after that overly confident saunter was worth sticking around.

Kanth

 

[Kanth]

An eye twitched as Sayael fought to keep her temper from rising, her lips pressed together. By crossing his arms, he seemed more than pleased at attempting to gather a reaction from her, so she took a minor step back as well.

"Oi'm sorry... oi seem to be at a disadvantage of knowledge here." The corners of her lips turned just slightly up as she stared at him with glossy eyes. "What kind of monster are you?"

Seiana_ZI

 

[Seiana_ZI]

There it was, the eye twitch, the sign of barely concealed anger. This should be good.

Dumb? Clearly. Wait -- did she just call him a Monster? Ha! Cearney laughed again, shooting back, "Aye, of course, with sharp teeth and tree branches, what else could you be?" The smirk on her lips seemed to be matched by a mischievous twinkle of his eyes.

Of course, he wouldn't just leave it there. As a proud leprechaun, he would never let his fellows go unknown. "Nice try. I'm a leprechaun. Fae."

Kanth

 

[Kanth]

"Ah, that makes perfect sense, then. My apologies." She flashed a genuine smile this time, having quite enjoyed the banter. And with a fellow fae, no less.

"Sugar Faerie. Pleased to meet'cha." And she curtsied just slightly, her eyes now keen with gathering even more possible information. Since he was fae... perhaps he knew things.

"Since ye be fae... perhaps you've met any other fae along yer travels? Perhaps a wee little gancanagh?"

Seiana_ZI

 

[Seiana_ZI]

Ha! Of course she apologized. Realized she was trying her nonsense with the wrong fella. He was a leprechaun, jackdammit.

Wait, she was a fae too? He quirked a brow. Interesting. Explained a bit of the behaviour, admittedly. He lifted his hat to her, setting it back down on his head when she kept talking.

A gancanagh? Well, she looked to be about student age, and there was really only one gancanagh he was familiar with at Amityville. "Ya mean Marosa?" That would have been easy enough of an answer for her, all things considered. He quirked a brow. Why would she need to know about Marosa?

Hm. Shifting, disposition a bit more serious, he prodded himself with a, "Why're you asking?"

Kanth

 

[Kanth]

Aha! So he did peruse with the locals here. Intriguing. He was always a strange kid anyway. Sayael tilted her head and smiled slowly, clasping her hands together in delight.

"Why... he's my brother, of course. And oi miss my dear older brother ever so much."

Finally, the faerie was on the right track, and was able to get some answers!

Seiana_ZI

 

[Seiana_ZI]

Her brother?

So this was someone from Marosa's family. Explained a bit of the accent too. They must have come from the same area of Halloween.

Cearney didn't exactly know a whole lot about Marosa's family, but what he knew wasn't good. There was that whole despot ruler father thing he had going on, after all. Whose side was this one on? Was she gonna be a problem when it came to Cearney getting his eventual riches? Marosa hadn't ever mentioned a sister when he was talking about his father, but then, Cearney had never asked about further family either.

"Your brother?" Cearney would play it safe for now, but he was tempted to get his phone out of his pocket and ping a text to the other fae. "When did ya last see him, then?"

In fact, maybe he should...

Kanth

 

[Kanth]

".... when we were wee little bairns." The memory frustrated her, and Sayael's arms dropped, a frown gracing her face. "Father didn't like us spending time together, so he was sent off to Amity..." She attempted to calm herself, but it didn't quite work.

"... while Oi had to wait and plead with him to let me attend as well." In all honesty, she hadn't really wanted to muck up Marosa's life too bad... but was it wrong to want to make it a little chaotic? After all, a little chaos was good for you. Right? Right.

Reaching up to rub her temples, Sayael sighed. It was tough to be completely honest, but a part of her wanted to reconnect with Marosa, and attempt to be the sister to the gancanagh that was always afraid of touch.

She wanted to help him, and didn't realize that he needed no help whatsoever.

Seiana_ZI

 

[Seiana_ZI]

That answered more than he asked, though it was certainly useful information.

For one, she had seemed to have been trapped by their father in some way, too. She could have been lying--Cearney was certainly familiar with lying himself--but her demeanour had changed enough that he was reasonably sure she was telling the truth. If she really was just looking for her brother, there would be no reason to lie, either.

"Ah, yes, I've heard about your father," he glanced up for a moment to study her reaction. "It's good he finally let ya leave. Amityville is a good academy."

Of course it was, or the leprechaun creeple would have sent him elsewhere.

Kanth

 

[Kanth]

For the briefest of moments, Sayael's face twisted into a frown at the mention of their father, a cold stare that would murder with a mere look. She shuddered as she let out a breath, the face turning into one that was cool, and calculated.

"Yes. It was beneficial for both of us." Glancing at her nails more out of habit than actually inspecting them, the sugar faerie made a small sound of disagreement on how that had come about. A lot of whining on her part, until Da'luagh couldn't stand it anymore and sent her away more to get her out of his hair.

But it had worked.

"But yes." Her gaze slid to him, curious. "So... what arrangement do ye have with him, seeing as how he's a gancanagh and all?" She couldn't keep the teasing smile from her face, wondering if Cearney had met that part of Marosa yet.
