The Harbinger of Ferocity — Roleplayer Guild

Intending to bridge a bit of the gap this evening or tomorrow, business and travel is at last over and would like to see Theron have something more to do now with what little bits of information he has gathered.

I can recall no time I saw a human infant I regarded as adorable in any sense. Cubs and kittens in contrast? I cannot help myself from finding them endearing.

I operate better on intuition than sensory input, the unseen versus the seen. What appears concrete and tangible is seldom the whole truth; the idea that the eyes might fail or the illusions in life might be too strong. Instead that internal compass of saying, "Something is just not quite right here..." acts as the foundation of my guide. Thus far, I have been more keen than chance, unrealistic at times.

I feel uncomfortable around human infants with how they transfix their gaze upon one's person and are so terribly fragile. Uncomfortable in the sense that I would much rather not handle them, no less because it is always somehow wrong; all too volatile especially with modern parenting.

You and I both then, as I am already highly selective but I do tolerate the "better" smaller people than the normal ones. Those who are willing to learn and listen, to retain what is taught or told, be quiet and settle if it is made clear and serious, so on it goes.

@Hekazu, you will find that Brannor has rolled a 14 for his initiative.

I certainly do have fantastic opportunities, all of which are just fated that way, be them what it is I do or those things I get brought into. The holidays being an example of that but it was none too awful, just noting the issues in the discipline of some children and that, despite knowing me, even having seen me, nothing but wonder; play was plentiful, but fortunately they still respected the presence of authority. I like to think in the brief time I was there we ironed out some of the habits their parents could not control, but who knows? It may have been unofficial work while the others enjoyed themselves but it was an interesting experience all the same for myself.

I am pleased that it has all been for the better, hearing as much is rare now in my experiences with people, @Carantathraiel. That is news we could use more of as a whole, isn't it now? Perhaps I am emphasizing it too much or disappointingly I just so rarely hear it.

As for my business? Fate or divine providence had it that when I returned to one of the places I had said I would, to procure some artifacts and fossils, I found the exact person, at the exact place, at the exact time that I needed them. After a long, varied discussion with the naturalist on our sciences I procured exactly what I required and had not found during my return visit to La Brea or several related sites. The real emphasis of this story is the fact that I found them at all dealing their wares just as they had attempted to vanish from their store due to bad experiences for the day; they are an eccentric, albeit enlightened spirit and dealing with the public is not their forte, rather desiring the field. Fortunately I am difficult to forget, according to them and others, and they made a particular exception to reopen briefly for the meeting and acquisition.

My other acts of late were spending some time with a lovely leopardess, several actually, and having a conversation with them. Same can be said for a tiger although it was brief in his case; his mate called him back when we were meeting due to the arrival of people and her wild-born tendencies to avoid them. No lions, other than the mountain lion who shared some muttering and purring, two jaguars being conditioned to sharing space near one another, a talkative jungle cat - very opposed to company I might add - as well as that of a lynx and bobcat. Frankly all the rest were busy, but I did acquire a historic chart of the feline lineages in the process so no real loss there.

Come to think of it, the past few weeks have been a great amount of business, to include holiday reintroduction to family and being swamped by curious children.

I would say then, if you hadn't already, to browse the list of character sheets and the background information and plot compiled thus far, @Prizrak. Something to give you that much needed insight as to what is more or less normative. As far as making what to fit, as this topic is all collaboration based between the members - no set in stone plot - that is entirely up to you. You could well be off and do your own thing, if you so wished for whatever reason.
