[writtendestiny]

I'd hoped to be able to do this more casually, but considering the circumstances--

[Poison's voice is tight and clipped in a way that could be mistaken for irritation, though anyone who's been able to get to know her a little - or is perceptive in that way - would be able to identify it more as anxiety.]

A-- friend and I have been working together to set up an alchemy guild building, to be open to all alchemists and potion-crafters in Avalon. Given the current situation-- situations, the door is opening early for anyone needing or wanting space to make up some potions and so on before they leave, or to hand out to anyone leaving.

[The young woman sighs and, in a moment of completely forgetting she's on camera, looks offside with her hand pushed up into the front of her hair, her lower lip held so tightly under her teeth for a second that it looks like she could bite through it.

She shakes it off, sharply clearing her throat.]

We're stocked with supplies. Anyone's welcome.

[And here she tags the location on to the post.]

Just come in and I'll point you to the stores and a room where you can work. Just don't set anything on fire.




(( open to network convo, action, and any action mingling if that's what you're fancying! ))

[Gokudera is interested in alchemy. Then again, he knows a lot of mages here with that magic type. It's not his cup of tea. He usually sets stuff on fire anyways, so won't be even making an attempt at ANY potion.]

If you ever need more supplies or ingredients, let me know.

ah, that also includes any ingredients that may be difficult or dangerous [Or illegal] to obtain

[He wants mundane fetch-quests, please.]

[writtendestiny]

[It wouldn't really be her choice but she thinks she prefers it over the other things she might have ended up with.]

Oh?

[The conversation is a good distraction, especially when it's someone she likes talking to. Poison abandons her currenty efforts to clean and sits down on a half-covered couch, holding the device up so she's in frame. She tilts her head with a faint smile.]

Just what kind of difficult to obtain ingredients were you thinking I might need, Gokudera?

[bakudan_bambino]

[Gokudera looks up in thought, his mouth cocking a bit sideways and his cigarette teetering between his lips.]

I don't know! I haven't ever made a potion and I don't have that kind of magic.

Whatever it is, I'll do my best to help out. I have a bunch of useless junk Larry's brought me you can have. It could be trash, or not. He just swallows whatever seems odd, then spits it up at people he likes.

[It's gross.]

[writtendestiny]

Junk like what?

[Yes, it does sound gross... but if it can be useful then it can be cleaned. Poison is not picky when it comes to things that she needs being covered in monster saliva or worse.]

We're still missing a lot of stuff in here, but I think it's going to look fine when it's finished. You should come and take a look.

[Unless--]

Unless you're going out to fight.

[bakudan_bambino]

Anything from shiny rocks to wooden toy swords. Sometimes literal trash, but I guess that just depends on what he thinks you might like.

[There's never usually a worse. Honestly, as gross as it seems, Gokudera has never seen the monster pass anything. It's always in through the mouth out through the mouth. It probably doesn't want to leave anything that can be used to track it. Sneaky cryptids and their secrecy.]

What kind of stuff?

Hm? Why would I fight? I've still got my collar on. I've got a plan to remove it, but... that's not something I can just rush into. And if it goes off, well... it'd be better if I weren't around.

[He's trying to say he's got a huge disadvantage without publicly claiming so on the network.]

[kingfuckboy]

Oh - congrats! You did it! Oh - uh, I should share since this might be helpful.

But I also have green magic - so anything that's needed... I can help with as far as supplies go.

[writtendestiny]

Haha, yes, I suppose I did.

[It's the first time in a while she's thoguht she might like to do something and then... has actually done it. That's strange to think of when she was always so driven.]

But that's great! Thank you, JJ... I might try to put a small garden in the back, but we'll have to be select about what we grow there.

[kingfuckboy]

Oh, definitely. Given that it's winter coming up, figured I'd offer so there's no major stress about trying to get what we need. I'll be there to work on alchemy, anyway~

[ There is a pretty pleased hum as he answers. ]

[writtendestiny]

That's really kind of you. [And there's a rare smile in her voice that softens the normally clipped edges of her words.]

If you want to help me work on it, you can. I don't know too much about gardening, so I'm going to have to learn.

[kingfuckboy]

Oh - it's no problem!

[ There's delight in his voice, and he's definitely not bashful because he thinks it's pretty great he can do it, too. ]

Just say when and I'd be happy to help. I mostly learned here as a part of learning my magic, so I'm far from an expert, but I've learned a lot.

[hor]

I am headed to the front lines, do you have everything under control? I can return and assist if need be. Supplies are as important in war as combatants.

[writtendestiny]

Yes, I think so.

[It's a lot to take on at once, but there's a kind of comfort in being able to keep busy.]

Are you going to be okay out there?

[hor]

Of course. Shall I record my gloriousness in battle for you?

[ 'u' He's just joking. But he's a war god, and one who's willing to do all manner of battle for decades just to keep messing with Set. ]

[writtendestiny]

If you like.

[Look, if he wants to do that... she's not going to stop him.]

Stories like that can be important.

[phoenixwiz]

I have kinetic magic to help in handing out the supplies, but I also have some experience in potion making back in my world too if you are looking for that as well.

[writtendestiny]

I'm not looking for anything.

[Poison answers this with a slight frown.]

I'm offering a workspace and a service. Not looking for help.

[phoenixwiz]

Um, okay then. That is fine, I was just asking.

[This comes a few hours after they fail to slay the dragon. Hawk needed some time to regain consciousness after that disaster. He's definitely reaching his limit, not that he should have really stuck around after how badly injured he was.]

I'd hoped to have done the same. My business is going to be selling potion making supplies and crafting ingredients. I got some supplies on hand I can donate to help out if you need anything still.

[And he's going to keep her in mind since once this is settled more they may want to negotiate an agreement of some sort for him to help supply or to provide a discount to her members.]

pls excuse my lateness

[writtendestiny]

[Though the various battles taking place were far away and Poison had been trying not to worry about them, she still occasionally found herself peering out of a window towards the smoke rising up in two directions. She hates that she can't get out there and help, but at the same time she knows that she'd be no help at all.

She can help from here, so that's what she's doing.]

Thank you. [Poison replies to Hawk after mulling over the offer for a few minutes. It can't help to partner up with some of the shops if they want to offer.]

I'm sure we can come to an arrangement that benefits both of us.

[notquitetamed]

We failed to slay the dragon, can't really do much else at this point. That's gonna be more people who need healing and especially for burns. Anything specific you might need or just whatever I can spare?

[writtendestiny]

[Poison doesn't see what failing to slay the dragon has to do with the topic at hand, but given it's likely a very tender topic at the moment she elects to restrain her instinctive urge to simply state that thought.

It wouldn't be of any use to say it.]

If that's what's needed at the moment, I suggest we pool our resources. I have a lot of space over here, and some supplies.

[colchismagecraft]

...That would be appreciated, thank you.

[Certainly, for the battle ahead, being able to brew a few extra potions to have under her belt would be appreciated.]

[writtendestiny]

No fighting in the building.

[She has her reasons for saying this, and certainly for saying it to Caster.]

It's for everyone.

[colchismagecraft]

Of course.

[Well, she can't say she was that surprised she got that reaction. It was entirely deserved.]

...and congratulations on getting the place opened up, as well.

[writtendestiny]

Thank you.

[Just a precaution, really.]

If you have trouble with anyone while you're here, you can let me know. I'll see to it.
