The season is a'changing, the weather is warmer. The forecast calls for high temperature, low humidity and a light breeze. A near perfect day. What better reason to gather the friends and have a good time with a bonfire? Grab a beer, have a seat. Cheery tunes fill the salty air. There's plenty of room and so much to eat.

Matt Murdock is actually dressed for the beach. Still likely more than usual. He burns so easily. There's no way he could have done this alone. Anyone who is anyone in Nexus knows that there is that distinct Verity Willis touch on everything. If the sounds and the sights don't get you, it is going to be whatever Clint has on the grill. That man is magic.

"Meat is preferred, with sweet and bitter seasoning. I have learned that humans do not usually consider engine oil to be edible," Faris says, pulling up the corners of his draconic mouth in an approximation of a smile. He tongue flicks out for a moment, much like a snake's. "This... sunscreen? It does not smell unappetizing either."
losthunter: (time to reveal my face)

"Last time I made him a meal, he added caramel sauce and engine oil to the recipe." Hunter explain lightly.

And he chuckles at Faris noting the smell of the sunscreen. "See what I mean?"
brave_heart_verity: (thinking about it)

[personal profile] brave_heart_verity 2016-06-01 12:42 am (UTC)(link)
"Engine oil?" Oh-kay that's weird. "No, that's not something we can eat. But I'll keep in mind that's the sort of thing you like."

If he licks her there are going to be problems.

"I'll see what I can do." Her options are limited, but she is determined.
poetwarrior: (Roar)

"I do not expect my tastes to be catered to precisely," he assures her. That would be rude, after all. "Together we will find something suitable."
losthunter: (the eyes speak everything)

[personal profile] losthunter 2016-06-01 12:59 am (UTC)(link)
"I do have some extra tubes of sunscreen, if that is an appealing smell Faris." Hunter overpacked, just in case.
brave_heart_verity: (I dunno...)

"I have honey, and lemons..." Which actually sounds pretty good. "And I've got some vinegar." It won't be the most elegant sauce ever, but it's not a bad place to start.
poetwarrior: (Scale detail)

[personal profile] poetwarrior 2016-06-01 01:41 am (UTC)(link)
Faris doesn't know what those are, but he's willing to give it a shot. "What is life without trying new experimental things?"

"There we go..." Hunter has been to the grill once, but doesn't mind guiding Feris over to where all the food is located.

"And we got a nice selection of meats and vegetables."

"Boring." She knows from experience.

While Faris is sorting out what he wants from the grill, Ver will slice a couple of lemons and juice them. She's careful to wash off any juice that gets on her hands; that would be a nasty chemical burn with the sun and the salt otherwise. Then she'll add an equal part of honey to the lemon juice. It's a place to start.

There is quite a variety of strange foods on offer, and Faris has to sniff around before he finds something to his taste. Unable to hold a plate while he needs all four feet for walking, he slides onto Hunter's skin, leaving only one forepaw sticking out from his tattoo form so he can carry the plate of bunless hamburger.
losthunter: (the eyes speak everything)

[personal profile] losthunter 2016-06-02 03:53 am (UTC)(link)
Hunter is used to Faris doing this by now. But he is taking note of others around them and their reaction. "We might want to take caution, my friend. I could help serve you, if you needed."
brave_heart_verity: (trying to explain)

[personal profile] brave_heart_verity 2016-06-02 04:37 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, that's... a little weird.

Not the weirdest thing she's ever seen, but it's up there.

"Uh... so... how long'll you two be together like this?"
poetwarrior: (Tattoo form)

[personal profile] poetwarrior 2016-06-02 05:40 pm (UTC)(link)
Faris doesn't understand what could be disturbing about this, but again he assumes it might be some human cultural thing. "As you wish," he says, handing the plate to Hunter. He re-positions himself across Hunter's skin to be a bit more comfortable, his long body winding around his host's torso. His head ends up on Hunter's shoulder. "I hope that it will not be terribly long. My host back home is likely missing me."
losthunter: (friendship carry you home)

[personal profile] losthunter 2016-06-02 06:16 pm (UTC)(link)
"I tried to look for his door, but I had no luck." Hunter explains to Verity. He takes the plate, to serve up some items that Faris would be interested in, using cues from the previous time he had cooked for him.
brave_heart_verity: (not so sure about this)

[personal profile] brave_heart_verity 2016-06-02 10:11 pm (UTC)(link)
"Ah. Well..." Verity falls silent, wondering how much to say. She adores all her friends and she doesn't want to pit them against each other. On the other hand, trying to protect them might not be doing them any favors.

"Schön's good at that. Finding doors, opening them. For a price."
poetwarrior: (Tattoo form)

[personal profile] poetwarrior 2016-06-02 11:06 pm (UTC)(link)
"I carry no money," Faris says from Hunter's shoulder. He can't quite frown, but if he could, he'd be doing it now.
losthunter: (seeking my soulmate)

[personal profile] losthunter 2016-06-02 11:09 pm (UTC)(link)
"The price is never a monetary value. It is usually a favor owed to Schön." Hunter explains. "I can introduce you to him, and it will up to you to decide."

"But if I was looking for a door, I would go to him..."
brave_heart_verity: (Default)

[personal profile] brave_heart_verity 2016-06-02 11:18 pm (UTC)(link)
"He's very good at what he does, and he won't charge unless he can deliver results. It's usually the best bargain you can find around here."
poetwarrior: (Roar)

[personal profile] poetwarrior 2016-06-02 11:23 pm (UTC)(link)
"A favor? What nature of favor?" Faris asks. He may be inexperienced with humans, but that just makes him slightly more cautious of agreeing to things he doesn't understand yet.
losthunter: (standing in the light)

[personal profile] losthunter 2016-06-02 11:28 pm (UTC)(link)
"That would be up to you and Schön to agree on." Hunter shrugs.
brave_heart_verity: (listening)

[personal profile] brave_heart_verity 2016-06-03 12:19 am (UTC)(link)
There's no further explanation coming from her; she just shrugs.

"He asked me for some of my hair, one time."
poetwarrior: (Tattoo form)

[personal profile] poetwarrior 2016-06-03 12:36 am (UTC)(link)
"So... his prices may be of a trivial nature," Faris concludes, although he's aware that it might not be the only kind of price this mysterious benefactor would accept. "Very well, perhaps I should meet this friend of yours."
losthunter: (refuge in my garden)

[personal profile] losthunter 2016-06-03 12:38 am (UTC)(link)
"Perhaps he will come tonight."

"Anything else you need on your meat, Faris?"
brave_heart_verity: (Default)

[personal profile] brave_heart_verity 2016-06-03 12:41 am (UTC)(link)
"Oh, he's here, somewhere." Probably behind her, now she's summoned him with the magic words.

But until the mystery man shows his face, Faris can keep right on thinking Ver's hair is of a trivial nature. That tells her a lot about him--for all he might be magic, he can't sense it.

Good.

Say your right words, Verity. Or is it speak of the devil, and he shall appear? "He is, indeed," greets the smooth-voiced fiend, himself. "Hunter, you're looking well, how are you--and who is your new friend?"
