Dogweed and Deathcap ~ Open

[BeaterBeast525]

❝And all the roads we have to walk are winding; And all the lights that lead us there are blinding❞

❝There are many things that I would like to say to you, but I don't know how❞

❝Because maybe, you're gonna be the one that saves me; And after all, you're my wonderwall❞

❝Today is gonna be the day that they're gonna throw it back to you
By now you should've somehow realized what you gotta do
I don't believe that anybody feels the way I do about you now❞

Hᴇᴀᴛʜᴇʀ hurried along after her friend as he lead them all to Dogweed and Deathcaps. She wasn't as familiar with this store as she was with Slug and Jiggers, but she had been in once or twice in the past, just to browse. This was a long time ago though, and she doubted Jason would remember. Yes, Jason, the solitude-loving, easily irritated werewolf pack leader. Heather knew him from Remy, seeing as she had put her trust in him to keep her sister safe during her transformations. However, other than that, the teen didn't really know him at all. "Hi, Jason. Hey, Remy." the girl said as she walked through the door. She awaited some comment about her hair color, whether it be good or bad, from either of the werewolves. Hopefully, the color Dominic had chosen didn't let off any radioactive waves... Otherwise, she may just happen to accidentally kill every single one of Jason's precious plants... Boy, he would murder her with an axe if that happened. The Hufflepuff gulped, smiling through her disturbing thoughts.

▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
❝Backbeat, the word was on the street that the fire in your heart is out
I'm sure you've heard it all before but you never really had a doubt
I don't believe that anybody feels the way I do about you now❞

Ⓡⓔⓜⓨ looked up at Ronyo, blinking curiously. She accepted his hug, her usual bright smile on her face. "Ronyo! What are you doing here? And.. Of course I am! We.... stood a fair chance in our game..." She gave an awkward sort of smile, then looked up at Jason. He seemed grumpy, but that was fairly common. Ah well. Gold eyes looked up to see... neon green?! Hands covered Remy's mouth as she tried to stop her giggles, but couldn't. "Your... hair... is.. GREEN!" She nearly collapsed to the floor with laughter, small snorts sounding as her nose wiggled. The teen had no idea why she found it as funny as she did! After several minutes, she was able to regain her composure. She draped an arm over her sister's shoulder, awkwardly on her tiptoes. She needed to grow a bit more, darn it!

Phinelia had stepped quietly but quickly behind the assorted group. Straggling by Ronyo's side regardless of her thirst to linger in the back where any attention would shed off of her and she, in turn, could assess from her over look. However, this was her first assignment in the possible employment and partnership with Ronyo and his business. She would not only take it with force but with the understanding that everything couldn't be anticipated.
As they entered the establishment - one Phinelia did not find familiar from her few years of Hogsmeade visits - the girl's every sense perked in attention as they approached their company. Slight introductions were quickly exchanged and greeting and Phi listened to the information being offered. It soon felt like business was about to begin, So Phinelia simply offered a smile in greeting before straightening for the purpose of their visit.

Do you CARE about ME?
Do you THINK I don't BLEED?
Why are you trying to HIDE behind a stupid LIE
When the TRUTH is your EYES

Have you LOST YOURSELF?
Always TRYING to SELL
The PERSON that you THINK you are
You stay ALONE 'cause real's just too HARD

MARINA EUGENIE ALDRED
PROUD HALFBLOOD
SLYTHERIN FOURTH YEAR

You say you'll never go that far: Winded| But you're not who you say you are: This had better be good... | Your time is up in too many places: Ronyo, Phi, Heather, Remy, and Jason | You've got too many faces: Dogweed and Deathcaps | Wearing

Marina trooped into the shop with the others, and lingered in the back, looking around with thinly veiled interest at all the plants. She recognized Jason, the werewolf pack leader who seemed to prefer plants to people, and of course she knew Remy from school. It was still a little hard to believe that once a month the tiny girl transformed into a wolf. Not that she needed to see it to believe it though. Seeing vampires in action had been quite enough.

You've got your HEART in too many PLACES

Always LAYING the BLAME
You're never ONE and the SAME
Could it be that you're AFRAID to look INSIDE
And find you'll NEVER get it RIGHT

So many SIDES to YOU
Nobody KNOWS the TRUTH
How you EVER gonna keep it STRAIGHT?
Do you WANNA be a MEMORY?

"Straight to the point, very well then."

Ronyo had not expected tea and a sit down with conversation but he still always seemed a bit surprised at the man's lack of real social skills. Then again what did he need them for, being social would only mean allowing people to get close to him. Those that got close to him would likely end up the victims on a night he forgot to take his potion when he transformed one night. Remy was possibly the only real amount of social interaction he got, which was a good thing for both of them really. Ronyo pulled out the article of clothing and placed it on the counter.

"I'm on a case and thought you could help out just a bit. A boy was abducted about a year ago, I have been tasked with trying to track him down and bring him home. His mother was killed the night he was taken so there is a murder mystery to go along with it as well. That..." Ronyo pointed to the shirt, "Is from the boy. Forgive me for being blunt but I get the feeling you would rather have me be that way then beat around the bush all day, I was hoping you could get a scent off it possibly. I wouldn't simply ask this without being willing to compensate, either through task or coin, but I feel the fastest chance I have to finding this boy is with your help Jason."

Jason was as he remembered, which was not necessarily a good thing. The old wolf liked his privacy and liked to keep to himself, his pack excluded from that though most likely. Despite this Ronyo knew the man was not a cold heartless beast, or else he wouldn't have been so willing to help Remy as much as he did or the others that summer. Ronyo grinned as the man asked with biting words why he should help. Ronyo respected Jason, although at times he struggled to remember why it was he did. Shaking his head with a chuckle Ronyo turned to his friends.

"Phi, could you take Marina and Heather to start looking around the grounds please? Start with places people don't frequent often, we've taken up enough of Mr. Hill's space."

While having Phi around when information was given always ended up the better Ronyo knew she could gain more by using her inquisitive nature and looking about the place. Having Heather might have helped in a part to gain favor but Ronyo didn't want to play that card unless he really had too. Plus Heather and Marina likely knew of places Phi did not. Looking back to Jason and grinning to Remy showing he was actually enjoying the sparring with Jason, Ronyo continued his turn on the matter.

"Because a boy's life may be on the line and you could very well bring a quick end to this incident. I mean you no disrespect Jason, I do not aim to treat you like a tool or useful creature I can use and then simply toss aside. I am here because I respect your abilities and talents and simply wish to know if you might be able to help. I can ask Remy if your too busy to help, I have other matters I wish to discuss with the young lady as well."

 

[Cinnabun Gryffie]

Ⓡⓔⓜⓨ had been playing with the Devil's Snare... until her name was mentioned. She looked up, gold eyes focused on the speaker. Ronyo needed her help? That was good, since she still felt she owed him for saving her life. Maybe twice, if her hunch was correct. She'd have to test that at a later date... For now, she grinned. "Aww, C'mon, Jason! You've got to help! What if it was Rufus? Or me?! Or..." a smirk showed on her face. "Or Akira out there! You just have to help! Unless you want me on a dangerous mission, of course. I might get kidnapped again, then you'll have to help! It's the rules!" Her gold eyes were wide, a pout on her lips. She knew eventually she'd crack him into helping... or give up and just help herself. When Ronyo said he needed to "discuss things" with her, Remy did a lovely impression of a deer in the headlights. What had she done wrong?! She didn't think she'd upset the older boy... but... she was Remy Bleiddiaid....

Ronyo smiled at Remy as she worked her charm on the old wolf to great effect. Ronyo would never do anything to place the young girl in direct harm, even by becoming a Chimera she would not be forced to confront danger directly if she did not wish it. The Chimera were not entirely designed to be direct conflict solvers, but work with information and if the need required it action. It was promising to see Remy wish to help someone else even if she had no idea who the person was. Ronyo felt even better about wanting to ask the young girl to join the group of problem solvers and young heroes.

"Thank you Mr. Hill, and thank you Remy I appreciate the assistance. I promise this is all I will ask of you sir and then be out of your hair," Ronyo handed the shirt over so Jason could do what he needed to and looked to Remy, "When Jason is finished helping could you follow me outside for just a moment Remy? I just need to ask you a quick question and then you can get back to what you were doing."

 

[Cinnabun Gryffie]

Ⓡⓔⓜⓨ gave a silent victory cheer when Jason relented. She had worked her magic yet again! She looked up at Ronyo, a bright smile on her face. She felt some sort of pride around the room... but she was unsure if it was just her. When Ronyo pinpointed her out, her eyes went wide. Seriously! Did she do something?! The guilty yet confused look showed on her face, despite her knowing that she had done nothing wrong. "I suppose? Am I in trouble?"

Phinelia's senses had focused wholy on the two strangers whose company their group had entered. The curt exchanges and searching eyes drew her attention; Ravenclaw instinct reborn as she listened, knowing Ronyo would want her ears and attentions as a second filter to any information.
However when he called her to attention and asked her to begin scouting with the two other girls Phi couldn't suppress her blink of surprise.
However immediately after the flash of confusion she understand his worries and train of thought. With a clipped nod and a gleam of her eyes she knew he would find familiar she turned around, nodding to the two other girls, and exiting the building. Mind already spiraling with the geography of the newly rediscovered village and its many dark corners and seedy alleys.

Ronyo chuckled a bit as Remy asked if she was in trouble. A few years ago he was just another student did he really come off so much more authoritative then he did back then, or was it just the simple fact of asking to talk with someone in private? Ronyo just smiled at the girl as he was having a hard time thinking of something Remy would get in trouble over...besides being kidnapped...twice.

"No Remy, in fact it is quite the opposite. I'll tell you more once Jason and I have concluded our business."
