[ open ] kaveh's permanent catch-all

[fussiest]

WHO: kaveh (fussiest) & y'all!
WHAT: this is a perpetual catch-all for kaveh because i'm too lazy to make a new one every month. this is for closed starters, tag-ins, visits to kaveh's workshop and the like! be wild! be bold! be free!
WHERE: all around the city, and especially at kaveh's workshop, the pairidaeza architectural design studio in district 1
WHEN: everywhere! everywhen! all at once!
WARNINGS: bickering, probably - everything else will be warned for on a thread-by-thread basis

( a tilt of her head, as if trying to realign her world with his, smiling as she always does. )

You want to try some? It's pretty good.

( the glide of glass over polished wood, and she stops her concoction just before the cold of it touches his nose. )

And if you want to set something on fire, I'm your gal! You could say I'm familiar.

[fussiest]

[ the drink slides right up to where his nose is. it stops there. kaveh goes nearly crossed-eyed trying to look at it. there's nary a moment of hesitation. he takes the drink, wrinkles his nose, and downs it.

... hm. ]

Oh, it's better than I thought. I can hardly taste the alcohol, but it's sweetened it. [ kaveh brightens. ] It's dangerous, though. It actually tastes good. I'll end up having too many these, and then where will I be? [ and then: ] Wait, why are you so eager to set things on fire? You don't have a talent for it, do you?

[fauned]

Under the bar, wearing a napkin for a hat, probably.

( but hey, she's delighted to have someone else see the light. )

I'm a wildfire druid? That's kind of my whole schtick.

( said like kaveh is simply Meant To Know what this means..... )

[fussiest]

Hey, now, I've never done that. And even if it were a napkin-hat, I'd fold a proper one.

[ wait. ] No, that's not what I wanted to argue. What is a wildfire druid?

[fauned]

( she's just going to.. slide him a napkin over as well. start folding. she wants to see this hat. )

Well.

( clears throat. sits up all proper even, like she's actually going to give a lecture about this when she doesn't fully understand it. )

Druids where I'm from are.. you know, little nature guys. We turn into animals, we have some command over plants and stuff, but we also represent a facet of nature, if that makes sense.

( and so, with her palm up, she summons a flickering flame, barely even an inch across. )

I represent wildfires. Necessary destruction to curb overgrowth and start over, reset the stage, that sort of thing.

[fussiest]

[ kaveh looks. and then, he begins to laugh. his hands work the napkin almost on autopilot, smoothing over folded edges, and carefully turning a four-point plane into something with body and structure. ]

Oh, that's wonderful. [ kaveh says, and he means it. truly, he does. ] I've never thought of it that way. If you are nature, then there must also be a part of nature that represents the burning of cleansing flames... of course, of course.

Do you like being a druid, Miss Fearne?
