001 :: Carbuncle

[A big ink blot appears on the bottom corner of the page and spreads from there before paw prints appear walking across the page.



There's also a few nose prints here and there.]

Mwee?

[Oh no this is adorable.]

I think your pet is trying to talk to us.

Child on the loose! Child on the loose!

I'm not a bit surprised they took rather quickly to you. And now they've claimed your things. That's love.

[leveillpier]

Thancred, did you drop your journal?

I didn't think you'd be the type to keep friends.

Sender: Thancred

[censorshipnutkin]

Apparently he is. The little troublemaker.

Even if he's just a sweet little carbuncle the rest of the time.

[Paw print, paw print, paw print.]

[censorshipnutkin]

Yeah, terror child on the loose, apparently.

He's a pain sometimes, but most of the time he's cute. Which is why he can stay, I guess.

[You can just hear the eyeroll.]

[censorshipnutkin]

No. Topaz found it and spilled ink on it. And proceeded to make some art.

Like the aether made child he is.

[donfire]

What's a carbuncle? Is he cute and small?

[leveillpier]

A mischievous aether made child indeed. What a fine piece of art he's made.

I heard pets tend to take after their owners.

[censorshipnutkin]

Bigger than a cat, but smaller than a large breed of dog. And they look like this.

[After a few seconds a picture of a carbuncle appears.]

[censorshipnutkin]

That's what happens when I turn my back for a moment. It's like it wants to cause trouble for me.

...

Hey. I'm not this bad. And I really don't want a carbuncle that acts like I used to....

[donfire]

So pretty! Does it have a name?

[leveillpier]

It's endearing, don't you think? At least you won't be bored.

You said it, not me. I also didn't mean it the way you think, but it would be quite the sight if it did.

[censorshipnutkin]

I've been calling them Zinnia, or Zinny. After a yellow flower from home. I don't think they mind... it would show if they did.

[censorshipnutkin]

Hmph.

[She has him there, and he knows it. He smirks, knowing she can't see it.]

A rogue carbuncle. That would be a sight.

[leveillpier]

Given its current aptitude for mischief, might be best to keep an eye out in case it does go rogue.

[ She's teasing him. Even if it does happen, it's something she can help with without a doubt. ]

[donfire]

that's a cute name! Do you know how old they are? Do animals like them get bigger?

[censorshipnutkin]

You know, I'm not sure on their age. I ended up with them after their original owner woke up... So I don't know how long they and their siblings have been around.


As for size... I think they normally stay around this size. Probably good for the caster back home, anyway.

[censorshipnutkin]

G'raha assured me I would be fine here with a carbuncle even with my Aether problems. Guess if it does go rogue, we'll find out about that.

[leveillpier]

G'raha isn't one to take things lightly.

Regardless, you'll have assistance if it does go rouge-- or if anything go awry with you.

Do mind your wellbeing.

[censorshipnutkin]

I know.

I... appreciate it, Alisae. They can't be harder to deal with than the porxie's I assume.

[donfire]

That's so cute! Can I meet Zinny?

Wait, there's more than one?!

[censorshipnutkin]

Of course. Pick a time and place and I'll bring her with me.

...yes, they have two siblings. An emerald carbuncle and ruby carbuncle.

[leveillpier]

Good. You'll never hear the end of it from me, otherwise.

Not likely. Proxies have a completely different function from a carbuncle. It's likely that they consume less aether when summoned.

[ Can't really say much on her end, since most of the time she's summoning aetherial blades from her grimoire rather an a carbuncle. ]

[donfire]

Maybe in front of the Dreambucks, tomorrow afternoon?

And that's so cool! I bet they're super cute.

[censorshipnutkin]

That would work.

Watch for the carbuncle, I'll be nearby.
