TNT - The Nameless Tavern. (Always Open)

Lavender made a noise that sounded like a surprised yelp when the little girl slammed her hands down on the table she was at. The woman was even more surprised when she saw the splinter of wood but quickly regained her composture. ”Oh- oh my.” Lavender hurriedly rummaged through the pockets hidden inside her cloak and retrieved from within what looked like some potion and a roll of bandages.

”I would be glad to demonstrate on you, child. It’s rather rude to send people flying into tables.” She chided the little girl as if she only drew on the wall, setting down the potion and the bandages onto the table before she lifted a hand to light a finger aflame with her blue fire, doing the same thing she did when she threatened the boy. ”Kid- don’t wanna scare you but do you mind if I try and treat the wound in your back? Or you could get your boss or someone else, whichever you’re comfortable with. There’s a stick embedded in your back. And you’re bleeding.” Lavender grimaced as she turned her head towards the other child, extinguishing the fire that she lit her finger up with.

Lavender shrugged. ”Literally everyone in my family has committed multiple crimes, including myself. It’s more..” The woman paused to think of something else. ”It’s more like a ‘my mother’s great great great grand parent decided to anger some spirit and the spirit decided to curse the family so the eldest child had to deal with one eye and a sapphire’ kind of mistake.”

Lavender glanced at the imp momentarily, but her attention was quickly shifted to the absolute chaos of an entry made by a little girl. She paused, then decided that she had enough drama for today.

She sighed. ”A lot of people don’t deserve things that happen to them, kid. I’m not sure if I count as one of them.” Lavender replied simply, barely resisting the urge to pat the boy on the head with her free hand as she said this. Great, she grimaced internally, now I’m attached.

The fox-faced woman eyed the man who dragged away the casualties of the previous fight so casually. If he was able to do this with such nonchalance, perhaps entertaining scenes just like just now happen often? Lavender highly doubted so, but if it was true then she may have found a Tavern which could be a source of drama she could access- as long as she remembers where it is, of course.

Lavender lifted her fox mask once again to take another sip of wine.

Lavender startled at the kid’s outburst. She was really, really starting to feel bad about being honest now.

The woman just watched him put the plate on the table before gently placing her hands on his shoulders. She seemed to pause in order to find the right words to say before she spoke. Just in case, she barely moved her fox mask off of her face to look the boy in the eye.”Look, kid…my family- they weren’t really good people. My uh, ancestors specifically. Let’s just say they- we deserved it. Karma, y’know?” She chuckled sadly. The orphanage kids don’t deserve their eye being hacked out though. Only she did. Her ‘siblings’ weren’t the ones that went poking around an ancient temple to steal stuff anyway. Lavender drew back and quickly moved her mask to fully cover her face again before she removed her hands from his shoulders. She picked up the glass of wine, inspecting the liquid for any visible poison before lifting her fox mask a tad bit and taking a sip a little gingerly.

”Ehhhh..hacked out by a cursed dagger. I’ve seen it happen twice already, it’s not that big of a deal.” A half truth. The woman shrugged as she said this as if it were a normal thing that happened daily. She hadn’t seen anyone’s eye been hacked out by a dagger or have their left eye replaced by a literal shiny stone. Lavender pushed down the trauma that came bubbling up to the surface as she recalled some certain unpleasant memories. A little bit of honesty hadn’t hurt her yet and it won’t hurt her now.

Lavender nodded as the kid realised his question was illogical, and watched with amusement as he tried to see the world from her point of view- with only one eye.

Everything? That’s was something interesting. The woman was also curious as to why he would tell himself not to stay down there for too long.

Lavender shook her head. ”Nope- I insist, kid. It’s not really fair if I get a drink without paying, now is it?” She paused when he asked if she still had her eyeball underneath her sapphire. Slowly, she formulated an answer inside her head and decided to just tell him.

”No. There’s..no more eyeball underneath the gem.” She said bluntly. At last- the actual truth.
