September Catchall - Counteraction Rising
Who: Shiroe and you!
When: Between September 12th and the start of the September Event
Where: ADI Library, Bonnie's (kitchen and bathroom),
Summary: Catchall
Warnings: Discussion of burn scars in third (bathroom) prompt, may also tie into self-esteem/depression discussion
ADI Library
Shiroe's been doing research into the folklore and legends of Gloucester, ranging from haunted places kids dare each other to go to the historical rumors of witchcraft. It's been long hours of work, squinting at books and articles. However, he's been neglecting himself a little in the process, leading to him falling asleep at his seat in the library. Someone might want to wake him up before he drools on that historical newspaper clipping, perhaps...
Bonnie's (Kitchen)
A small collection of energy drinks has been accumulating in the fridge in the kitchen at Bonnie's. For someone who's new to America (and perhaps a few years behind the present day), all the varieties and flavors are exciting. Regardless of your reason for entering the kitchen today, you find a certain Enchanter, trying to find room in the fridge for a couple more, including a Reign White Gummy Bear and a Bang Cotton Candy.
"I doubt it actually tastes like cotton candy. Which is good, I think the circus might have soured me on it." He hasn't looked up to see who's in the kitchen with him, just heard footsteps and decided to engage.
Bonnie's (Shared Bathroom)
The burns from Pyre's slap have mostly healed, but it seems there will be some scarring, three small puckers from where Pyre's fingertips first made contact before hot wax hit the rest of his face. Shiroe's leaning into a mirror, examining those scars quietly, trying to figure out how he feels about them.
He's never taken particular pride in his appearance, so it shouldn't be a big deal, right? Riiight?
If that's the case, then why can't he stop looking at the scars, even when someone else walks into the bathroom?

Someday, maybe. It's just there's so damn much to be done here, so much to find out.
"It makes sense. As sparse as the library is here, at least some things should show up in the news and local lore." He nods thoughtfully, casting his glance over the scattered files and paper clippings. "Dogtown alone has to have plenty of local legends, given how strange it is...I'd be interested in hearing the root of some of those."

He shuffles papers to read the quote verbatim. "It's said she takes a toll from those who end up there. Liquor from those who have it, blood from those who don't."
no subject
"I can't say it's surprising, though, given the history of the area. All the way down the coast, really, and Salem isn't terribly far from here either. Magic and witchcraft is often steeped in family lines and traditions, so it tends to be tenacious."
A faint smile touches his lips. It's a serious topic, but Shiroe has turned up some good, useful information and Jaeger has taken a pretty sincere interest in Dogtown. Knowing these things means not going in blind, and that's valuable.
"Speaking of tenacious, let me know if you want some coffee. It's good to take a break now and then, stretch and clear your head."
