Ribbit!?

[om_nom_namur]

Aight, listen up y'all. Got a deal for y' an' y' ain't gonna wanna miss it, catch me?

[Is everyone ready for this? Oddly, this message is accompanied by the sound of mad laughter in the background, and shaky-cam so much shaky cam of someone running through the haunted forest of Everglade.]

Someone get t' Fayren. Talk t' the mages or sorcerers or whoever. Need a- Oof!

[The camera rolls. Apparently Namur glanced off the side of a tree.]

Need a curse nullification charm, or a shapeshiftin' spell, or anythin' like that! Bring it t' me here in Everglade, an' I'll pay y' a hunnerd-fifty percent, got that? This witch's gone off the rails a bit so y' might wanna grab two or three in case she gets y', too!

Don't worry though! I got this shit. It'll jus' be a touch easier t' bring her in when I ain't a-

[He seems safe enough for the moment, and sets the communicator down on the ground, presenting himself in front of the camera, arms stretched out to the sides.]

Well I think right now I'm a rat or some shit. What is this?

[It's a squirrel. With blue fur and black markings that match his tattoos.]

Anyway, get that shit here quick! Namur out!

[Rip was about to ask just what kind of curse he was dealing with when he appeared on screen as a blue squirrel. Sorry Namur, but, Rip miight be laughing her ass off right this second.]

Y-you're a squirrel!

[om_nom_namur]

That's like a shitty rat, innit?

[singinghuntress]

[Eventually her laughter calms down to a snicker. It just takes awhile.]

Sort of.. yes. Zhey climb trees und hide nuts everyvhere~. Zhey also make good stew if you believe zome.

[In the course of her laughing, he's been turned into a toad, now hopping after the witch, trying to kick her off her broom. He manages to roundhouse the broom itself, which has the same result when it crashes, so he'll take it. He lands heroically in a crouch and croaks, his throat puffing out and surprising the hell out of him. He hops back and croaks again, this time blushing fiercely.]

Sh- shut up an' jus' get yer ass t' Fayren!

[despairunending]

Maybe she wouldn't have cursed you if you hadn't bothered her. You think about that?

[Help? Why would she help when this is so much more entertaining.]

Re: video

[om_nom_namur]

Well shit, maybe if she was more careful and didn't curse folk thats gonna put a bounty on her head, I wouldn't be botherin' her! 'S a vicious cycle, sweetheart! I'mma break it though!

[Right at that moment, he gets hit with another curse, which turns him into a toad. He croaks loudly, annoyed.]

Aw that's it!

[Excuse him, he has to go kick a witch off her broom. It'd certainly look more badass if he weren't hopping comically after her.]

[despairunending]

Or maybe people shouldn't go running and crying to other people just because they pissed off the wrong fuckin' person!

[Hey, it's not affecting her,s she can absolutely enjoy every second of this. Especially because there's a determination that suggests hope that could so easily be crushed.]

Re: video

[om_nom_namur]

That'd work too! But that ain't the way shit went down, so here we is!

[Namur manages to kick the broom, crashing it to the ground. The resultant victory croak takes him by surprise, and he starts blushing furiously.]

Listen, y' wanna makes some bills off this or what?

[riddlemehiss]

I don't think I've ever met a rat with such a marvellous tail!

[He's pretty unfazed for somecat who literally just arrived. Also priorities.]

Re: [Video]

[om_nom_namur]

Yeah? Well I ain't one t' do shit by halves, so there y' go. She get y' too at some point or'd yer mama give y' that fur?

[Video]

[riddlemehiss]

[Character skills: taking everything literally.]

What a odd idea! No cat would ever want to give away fur!

Re: [Video]

[om_nom_namur]

I'unno, don't y'all leave that shit layin' 'round everwhere anyway? Why not give it t' folk y' love?

[stillsmiling]

[Did someone say CURSE?

Shi peeks at the screen cautiously.]

U-Um... I can... absorb curses...?

video

[om_nom_namur]

[He's a snake now. Don't ask.]

Well shit that sounds all kinds a useful! Get yer ass over here, eh? What's yer name?

[stillsmiling]

Useful? R-Really?

I-I'm Shi! Ahhh, where am I going?

[om_nom_namur]

Everglade! Call one a the Jolly Eddy's boys t' escort y' t' the forest if yer too scared t' come 'lone an' I'll pay y' back for it plus yer services. How much y' want?

[anamnestik]

Whaa--- Ahhh! What happened? Witch?!

Did anyone find a cure yet?!

video

[om_nom_namur]

Think Rip's on her way but-

[Suddenly dung beetle!]

But I could use any help I can get...

[He wiggles an antenna in annoyance.]

[anamnestik]

Ahhhhh~Of course! Let me just... uh, find you.

[Eliot is already headed off, having just locked the apartment door behind him.]

What are you doing, getting involved with witches? That's dangerous?

[trollkeru]

Does stuff like that happen in Everglade all the time?

[Because if so, this is why he avoids that place.]

video;

[om_nom_namur]

Why don'tcha come on over an' find out fer yerself, eh?

[Sorry, people not ever bothering to go there but having Opinions about how it ought to be run have been a sore point for him lately.]

[trollkeru]

If I could defend myself or want to learn, I would consider it. But odds are highly likely I would die very easily because I just am not good at the whole fighting thing.

[Otherwise he probably would since horror is something he does enjoy.]

Though have you found anyone who would willing have what happened to you happen to them?

[This is an area Ada is okay at in this world. If this was stuff based back home she had things memorized currently. But this was a different world and different books she had been currently reading.]

I haven't heard of such things, but I am still reading everything that exists in Everglade. But I can always look unless you got help.

[om_nom_namur]

Sweetheart I ain't never gonna say no t' more help, 'specially not from a cute soundin' 'maid like yerself! Look for anythin' t' reverse or block spells, or any shapeshiftin' curses y' can find, aye?

Video

[occultfan]

I like to think such things can and will probably exist, I mean odds are highly likely if a spell exists there is one to counter it. Though, I'm not someone who can actually use the spells. It's just a nice thing to know really.
