Amber immediately took a disliking to the new girl. For one, she also smelled of Beast, specifically wolf. Secondly she immediately accused Amber of being here for mischievous reasons. She actually came here for safety, and stayed because children were frightened. If this wold girl wanted to see mischief, she'd see mischief. Amber just had to think something up...
After the exchange of words that Amber wasn't really paying attention to, the nice guy was escorted out by the mean old guy. Amber felt a pang of sadness, but that was the law of the forest. The strong prey on the weak, and the weak try to outsmart the strong, but there's always a winner and loser. She turned her attention back to the she-wolf, when she noticed her giving coins to the children. Amber knew that coins could get you food, and that this was basically feeding them. Her opinion on the wolf softened, and she decided not to be mischievous to her.
"That was nice, what you just did. I'm Amber. What's your name?"
As she talked, she turned, as as she turned, she felt the crystal in her dress. She took it out and looked at it, then back out the door, appearing deep in thought. Amber had no concept of favours or manners, but she knew that she owed Lark, and she didn't want to let him die after receiving a gift in this beautiful stone. Disregarding Nyx entirely, she ran out the door, keeping her head down, and following the scent of the wolf. As it got stronger, she took a left turn and headed down an alley, now running parallel to where the trail would lead her, which was back to the nice part of town, the way she came.
She was quickly cut off by a gang of boys in their early to mid teens, not one of them much taller than her, but they all still looked tough and lean, and their eyes were cruel.
"We'll be taking that crystal now, if you don't mind." said the largest one.
Amber smiled, then chuckled a little, then kept walking, quite close to the edge of the lawless zone now. The boys, furious, followed her at a run but she continues to ignore them, or occasionally provoke them with laughter, or a playful thwap with her light wings, constantly leading them towards the markets. She was goading them, sometimes even dancing out the way of their grabs at her, but not running away yet. Not quite. That would suggest she was fleeing. That she was afraid, but it was her confident mockery that was throwing the young thugs off so much. They weren't used to people smaller than them being so fearless.
Eventually, the large one lost his patience, grabbed her dress, and pinned her against the wall, seething with rage. "You're going to pay for mocking us," he near-whispered with a shaky voice. "First you're going to give us the crystal, then we might not beat you up as bad as we want to."
Amber smirked right at his large, ugly face. He's just sprung her trap. Before he could register what she was doing, she grabbed his hand, and pushed it away from her, tearing her dress in the process, and then immediately screamed as loud as she could, adding the evergreen "Stop! You pervert!"
The teens, flustered and red-faced at this display, quickly backed away and looked around. A few people were starting to turn in their direction. The boys bolted back towards the lawless zone, and Amber proudly skipped into the market, quickly picking the trail back up.

I'd use my second character, but as I said earlier, I can't decide on a backstory for them. Alsom stalking would be cool, but it'd kinda be filler at this point because I wouldn't be interacting with anyone, and that feels wrong.
This is why I've never successfully made the jump to Advanced. I see RP (collaboration and interaction, with organic, non-planned character development) and story writing (detailed planning of character arc and development, with literally no interaction or collaboration) as two very different things and I can't mix them.

I'm not entirely sure what Amber should be doing right now. She was a third wheel in the Gellert/Lark storyline anyway, but now she's been taken out of it entirely.
Yup. Lotsa room!
About the unicorn. Is he a boy with a horn, or a boy that can transform into a unicorn, or what?
Every time I try and make my elf character I realise I have nothing. Wondering if I should align her.
Heidi nodded and replied with "The same to you" stoically as she stepped out and immediately entered the back, and then stood at the entrance simply talking everything in. The lines despite the empty booths suggested they might not be efficiently staffed, which also suggested they had less money than a bank would normally have to pay wages. This may relate to the poor condition of the floor, which was further brought to her attention by singling out several conversations about the state of the floor by people in the queue.
She looked around now at the wires on the walls belonging to the alarm system. She looked at the location, condition and total room coverage of every CCTV camera in the room. She stored this information. If she was being asked to guard a building, she wanted to know how secure it already was. After this had all been done, she started to watch everyone who entered the bank, noting their clothes, facial expression, body language, trying to assess whether or not they were here for money-related issues, or were here for another reason. Two or three people seemed oddly nervous or excited, and she memorized what they looked like and what they were wearing, but there could be multiple reasons for that outwith trying to pull some funny business. Still, every so often, she'd locate them in their lines, and watch them carefully as they got to the clerks.
Having this downtime gave Heidi some time to think about things she'd pushed out of her mind while it was in 'mission mode'. Before they left the craft, Shawn had specifically wished Heidi good luck. And before that, she escorted him to collect Chrys out of genuine concern. Were they...friends now? Yes. This all means that Heidi and Shawn could safely be considered friends now! Heidi had never actually had a friend before outside of her own family, and her sessions with Booker to help her social anxiety. Well, they were clearly paying off if she's made a friend!
She noticed at this point that she's started to shyly smile to herself, and immediately corrected this.
