Mari

Mari's gaze shifted down to her hands, her fingers fiddling with each other, using her fingernails to pick out bits of dirt from other fingernails. For all her bravado lately, coming face to face with someone genuine left her... feeling a little awkward. Baldur had always trusted her, same with Macradon. Mac had defended her against Bahr - heck...she was one of the founding leaders of the Ladder initially. So why lately...did it feel like she didn't really belong? "Yeah..." Mari admitted, her voice small. She was unable to rebuke his words. "Enough to let you sleep on my couch if you rea

Mari didn’t trust him, so she opened up her HUD system, one hand still on her pouch. Eyes constantly flicking up to the white haired man to ensure he didn’t take a single step further, he seemed quite happy to just bounce to and fro from his toes to the heels of his feet. “I ain’t want to hurt you, Mari.” He said with a whistle. “Go on, tell anyone and everyone ol’ Vex is here!” He said with a flourish and a bow, scraping his feet against the snow. Ugh Mari inwardly cringed at his demeanor, she didn’t like it. Somehow…it reminded her of Tybalt. If Tybalt had his wits about him, and

Mari had one hand firmly planted on her hip, the other - on her satchel of tricks. She had only met this man once before - and he was with a purple haired woman who called herself Emilia. Although her real name was Khione. This was not a coincidence. Running into Reytac - the footprints - “You were following me.” Mari said tersely as her hand dipped into her satchel. “Explain.” This didn’t bode well, at least not for Vex. He seemed to always be attached at Khiones hip. Mari remembered the name now. The interaction. How pissed Khione had been at Vex for him revealing her screen na

It may very well have been the first time Mari properly tried exploring the floor. And with good reason. The entire floor was a big sloppy, stinky muddy mess. "Eargh..." Each footstep landed in wet. Her muddied shoes beyond saving. The woman was using her halberd as a makeshift walking stick, every so often pausing to shove it into the murky marshland beneath her feet to ensure her path wasn't too deep. Despite the woman's best efforts the muddied waters had leaked into her shoots and her feet were wet. Every so often Mari would pause, and quite literally set herself on fire - in an attempt t

Mari wasn't entirely sure what Hidden was thinking, when her cup paused in the air - perhaps she was wondering if Raidou had really helped Mari. Baldur certainly felt like Raidou hadn't done the right thing, it wouldn't surprise her if others felt the same way. The way Hidden tensed did not go unnoticed by Mari. But, Mari mistook it for being uncomfortable with how close the woman was being, in the past Mari had been like this with Hidden, but she supposed it had been a number of years. So Mari let silken strands of white fall free from betwixt her fingers and shifted her attention back to the

The screaming continued and Mari had to pause down a hallway that intersected - branching two different ways in front of her. Right...some of these dungeons did this. Made you get lost. Mari pulled out a single piece of chalk and marked the way she had come with an arrow, pointing toward the exit. She had only been through here once before, and whilst she did have it mapped out, the woman wasn't the best at reading said maps. The cries sounded more and more human, but that's just the thing about this game - what sounded human may not be, it could be an NPC- an event that would trigger if one w

Raidou responded in the way she'd expected him to - prompt and with all the information, written with a dry precision. Of course he was already here. Why would Mari think otherwise? The raid party had barely cleared the floor a day ago and he was already here, no doubt he had probably already mapped out half the place. Mari snorted in amusement. Guess he didn't need her help after all. Mari opened up her menu, he was one of the few people she'd bother replying to in excess. She owed a lot to the man after all. He knew her at her worst, and she knew some of his most important secrets

Exiting from the floor below Mari winced, eyes burning from the sudden sunlight that pelted her face. She groaned as she turned her back on it and shut the door behind her - grumbling as she rubbed dancing spots away from her eyes. Mari fumbled around her inventory till she pulled out a pair of sunglasses then with a heavy sigh, repeated the process, pushing the door to the next floor open once again. Before her was a sprawl of glistening sandy beaches and soft salty waves that lapped at her feet. The sun, whilst its brightness wasn't exactly welcomed - the warmth was - especially after
