-The Mythics RP-

Pics
Jintao returned the nod and said nothing. He was sorta surprised to see her come so close, especially because how stand-offish she had been. Turning his attention away from her, he studied the streets as they walked along. The buildings were dark with no waken life. Rain gathered in ruts caused by once heavy traffic. An old begger slept under the shallow eve of an abandoned store. Jintao crossed the street to him and dropped the two copper coins into the man's tin without slowing his pace.
She kept her head forward and maintained an even pace, but her eyes followed his smooth movement.
Curious.
The coppers sent quivers through the rusted tin.
So why was he helping her, then?
Words lurked in her throat, but rain still pattered and mingled with the vibrations of sound. She would have no chance at making out his words during such profuse torrents.
The water began to feel bruising upon her head, and her muscles tensed and shook.
Forever she would bear a weak body, but her mind would not be so easily given to fleshly reaction.
Tay strode through the slosh and kicked water. The soggy trench coat slapped her thighs, and the hood pasted to her forehead.
"We're almost there," Jintao said after awhile. "It's just another block."
She lifted her gaze and cast a hesitant glance toward the man. He did not appear to expect an answer in return, so she gave another nod.
He was no talking her to a mercantile, she thought, but the man's swagger did not show with the anticipation of deceit. In fact, his confident steps should have relieved her.
Tay kept her head low and let her ears go numb.
Always so desperate. This situation was a low blow to whatever bit of her ego remained. Astute calculations once graphed her eyes, and now where were they?
Worthless.
But alive.
Her boots emerged from murky puddles, and a sudden paper caught on the toe of her right foot.
Ah, right, the poster.
She wasn't completely worthless.

(There, Duckwing, I've set you up to do something twisty... You don't have to take it, but it's a nice shiney lure, I will not lie...)

(i think its fine, idk what exactly Gecko is planning Galen's got his FULL attention on the three people on the ship atm so idk Gecko will be spotted for a bit)
(As far as Gecko's plan- I'm not sure yet. I'm just looking to get him hooked up with someone else soon so I'm not just RPing him by himself. I am planning to eventually get Gecko on the Quicksilver, so maybe this can be how he gets connected. :D

On a side note, he does need a new blade, so Galen will probably good to get him a new one, lol.)

To preface: I LOVE being out in the rain.
But you have managed to describe and briefly convince me that rain is the most awful gross thing ever, hats off to you, Cap ✨

“Correcto mundo,” Lichen said. “You don’t have to believe me, doesn’t matter either way to be honest.”
The Falcon glides into Pirates Cove, circles once, spots its target, and flies away.

Back home it swoops into the door and alights on Galen’s folded wing.
“Ouch!” He gently shook the bird off, “My hand, you must land on my hand.”
The Falcon came to rest on his gloved hand.
“Did you find ‘er? In the cove?” He rolled his eyes. “Well, I guess there’s only one thing to do. Best leave this” He tugged his cloak and gloves off and hung them up, “in case we need to make a quick getaway, can't get all tangled up.”
He ducked out the door and closed it behind him.
“Alright,” He flexed his wings, “Lead the way.”
The falcon took off and in one large wingbeat, Galen was also in the air. He flew down along the edge of the shore and trailed one finger in the water before slowing his flight and shooting upwards, getting a clear look at the cove below. He spotted a large ship and his falcon circling it below.
He angled his wings and streaked downwards toward the water before suddenly snapping them open with a loud woosh and landing gently on the deck.
“If you so much as aim that thing at me,” He had seen what was happening from the sky, “you might regret it”
Ember yanked her own pistol out of its sheath, keeping it aimed tensely at the boards of the deck, her eyes flaring brighter as she glanced between the two Harpies.
"Liar," she hissed to the first one, shooting her a dark look.

Jintao suddenly stopped. The small business was just across the street. It was never out of the ordinary to go to this store, but at this time of night? It just might raise suspension if a one armed man showed up now. He looked at Tay. He planned to tell her to stay here until he spoke with the owner, but what if she left, or worst, some creep kidnapped her. It wasn't too hard for him to notice her weakness, despite him hiding his knowledge of it.
"We'll cross the street together," he said, returning his attention to the building that was their destination. "It's early, so he's probably not up yet. I should be able to get his attention, but don't be alarmed if he greets us with his rifle." He felt like he didn't need to explain anything to her; he did it more for conversation. "Let me do the talking until things are settled. He'll probably want to know who you are, so if you're hiding your real identity, think fast for your new one."
Jintao stepped forward, then in front of Tay, turning to her and b@locking the view of the street. He had one more thing to say and this was necessary to him. "Last thing," he said. "No stealing. It will not be tolerated in this store and I will be the first to turn you in if I don't kill you first- whoever you are." The store manager was someone important to him- if not family. He knew he couldn't even injure someone with his dominant hand gone, but his threat of doing so would hopefully be enough to deter this stranger from getting any ideas. "Is that understood?"

(I didn't take it... But it doesn't mean I won't forever. :p )
