    The more martial of the Lost enter the Spring Tavern. Those that ran from the Briar Wolves know that they found refuge here from their slavering jaws. The stretch of unkempt Thorns that lead away for a meticulously maintained area. Grass cut, Thorns trimmed, a gate to which they hadn't seen beyond, but they might not need to. Not when the great Effigy Stag was standing right in that well maintained section.

    They would just need to out maneuver the Briar Wolves to get to it.




    This is for those who're a part of the Hedge part of the Broken Cycle.

    Please remember to list your equipment!

    An alluring young beauty, Sonnie Wu is 5'2" and lean-bodied, with a light, nimble step and eyes that seem to say "Hey, you know what would be fun?" Her reddish-brown hair often seems slightly unkempt, and an amused smile regularly plays on her lips. Sonnie is usually dressed casually or for outdoor activity.

A long monkey tail protrudes from the base of Sonnie's spine, covered in hair the same shade as her head. It appears to be prehensile, and often moves to react to her mood and dances about when she speaks, like people who "talk with their hands." Finally, her brown eyes turn golden.

    Sonnie was already here in the Tavern, seated upon the wooden bar top, legs crossed beneath her, as she quietly meditated noisily ate from a bag of peanuts as she watched a movie on her phone. Anyone that sneaked a look at the screen would see it was a Spider-Man movie. The super-good animated one!

    The Beast was ready for Hedge travel. Her messenger bag was sitting next to her, and she was dressed in faded blue jeans, her red hedgespun boots, a black beanie, and a dark green zip up hoodie over a black and red flannel shirt. Her hair was in twin braids.

    Smartphone, messenger bag, Hedgespun boots (+2 Speed), Hedgespun coin pendant (+1 Defense), Hedgespun staff (+1 Damage), 3 throwing knives (concealed), small hand mirror, matches, rolled-up blanket, two bottles of water, bag of turkey jerky, bag of peanuts, baggie with 2 blushberries, thermos of coupnettle tea.

    Softly shimmering gold flakes catch the light whenever she moves, delicate gilded and diamond scales extenuate the luminescent sapphires that are her eyes. The ocean lives in Sera's eyes, perfectly cut sapphires, gleam in the light. Deeper shades always shifting like the tide. The scales trail up to her temples and forehead. Her hair reaches down her back, brushing the back of her calves, spun silver and gold. Perfectly placed streaks of sea green are seen throughout her hair. Very fine diamond dust falls loose from her hair when she moves, reflecting rainbows from the light. The scales on her hands are dulled by the simple fact that her hands are translucent. There was an iridescent scale like skin that pulled delicately up from her ears. The membrane shimmered and created three curly points.

    Treasured Nix

    The day had arrived. The time to venture back into the Hedge and take out that stupid wooden statue. Which meant dealing with Briar Wolves again, possibly Followers like the ones in the alley, and quite possibly the Huntsmen himself if those in the Dreams failed. Which would mean things she didn’t want to think about.

    Walking into the Tavern, she was dressed for a fight. Well, as much as she could anyways. Black fitted jeans, tucked into boots with a black tank top. She had her Hedgespun jacket on, the spider silk and dew coming to life as she entered. The temptation to wear her new Hedgespun coat was strong, but it wouldn’t be as helpful as the one Mhairi had made for her. Long, golden and silver hair was pulled back into a braid and she had no makeup on, not even a lip gloss. Thankfully, she didn’t need it, but it showed how serious she was. But she did have on black leather gloves.

    Spotting Sonnie, she offers a smile, “Hey Sonnie.” Walking over, the smell of fresh cut grass following her. Pulling off her messenger bag, she sits.

    "Hi Sera! Ready for some arson?" the Steepscrambler grinned, looking up from her phone. She sniffed the air, looking quizzically at the Nix when she detected the fresh cut grass scent. "Does your mantle ever cause hay fever?"

    It was an idle question, really. Small talk. Sonnie rolled up her bag of shelled peanuts and put them back into her stuffed messenger bag. "You ready for this? We're gonna be backtracking along where those wolves chased us."

    Golden eyes went to the Ironside door, "Speaking of which, Coco and Circe are coming, right? We'll need the extra firepower if we run into the Paw Patrol again. Also, Coco Bean is supposed to have the cocktails." She then paused her movie, shut off the phone, and deposited it into a pocket. "Who else was on this team? I forget."

    Treasured Nix

    “Hay fever?” a brief confusion, “Oh!” laughing, “No, I don’t think so, at least, not that anyone’s told me.” Then a pause, “Wait, do you think it actually could?” was that a thing?

    “Well, as ready as I can be.” It was hard to be excited. They were about to light this dudes giant stag on fire. “Not looking forward to those wolves again. But, at least we know I can buy us some time if need be.” A halfhearted shrug.

    “They said they were, maybe we’re just early?”
    a thought as her gloved hands worked nervously. “Think they’re going to be ok in the Dream? I can’t put into words how terrifying He was when we saw him, and his Hounds,” her arms wrap defensively around herself, “were horrible.” She was more worried about Rhodes then anything.

    Sonnie shrugged, "I dunno. Just wonderin'."

    "Yeah, that was a pretty cool trick!" The Beast nodded appreciatively, "And this time I don't have Ellie to lug around, so I'll be free to fight!"

    "Well, if Coco doesn't show up, we got no way to burn the stag thingy down. Soooo... yeah." She wondered if they'd have to call the whole thing off if the bottle bombs were not supplied. "I got her the gasoline. It was weird, I never bought gas before, and buying some without a car gets you as lot of stares."

    Sonnie scratched her head and gave another shrug, "I guess? I mean, you can't die in a dream, right? What's the worst that can happen? We're the ones at more risk, really."

    Additional Identifying Features:
    A tattoo of a jeweled wasp sits perched atop a thick and gnarled white "branch" that stretches several inches upwards from her left wrist, though the branch is clearly a scar.

    A tattoo of a frayed, torn, and dirty golden banner trails around her right wrist, with another long scar forming the "mounting" for the banner.

    You know why Coco was late?

    You wanna know why?

    It was because of the Gas Station.

    Gross.

    Also, she was out of shape. Carrying a 5 gallon gas can had effectively made her left arm a limp shell of its former self, the gas can held up by the strength of her tendons refusing to let her arm rip off. She probably should have switched off to her right hand, but that was her sword arm, and if that got fucked up, well, then she would be in the shit, and so she just suffered...and took frequent breaks.

    Lots of breaks.

    But, eventually she showed up, gas can in one hand, her cane in the other, and with a backpack full of empty glass bottles on her back.

    And then she saw the fucking gas can sitting by Sonnie.

    "But you -- we -- aaarrrhhhggg," the Wasp groaned out. "Fine, we'll just have all the gas! It would have been nice to have gotten like, a phone call, or a text message, or something. You know, just to say that you got the gas already, or whatever!

    But fine! It's fine. You can never have too much gas when you're planning arson, right?"
    Coco finished with a fake smile, finally setting that damned can on the ground and slinging her backpack off onto the table with a muffled clink. She had old shirts padding the glass bottles, after all.

    As for her own attire, she was dressed in the perfect like all commandos should be: in camo. Ok, seriously, she wasn't dressed that appropriately for what they were doing, though she did have the camo. A pair of camo leggins, tennis shoes, and a black crop top, with the addition of a black bandana around her neck.

    She would hopefully not die.

    Enter the Coco. 5 gallons of gas. 8 750ml glass bottles. Swordcane. Cheap lighters x5. Box of matches. Backpack. Water bottle.

    It's true!

    One can never have too much gas when planning arson. But now to transfer the gas into it's breakable containers so the accelerant was in a more portable and usable state.

    It was time to make the cocktails for this party!


    Crafting time! Mwhahaha

    Dex+Crafts-2 (to make sure the gas doesn't get everywhere) to pour the gas into the bottles, and to rip up/soak some convenient fabric, and to stuff it into the bottles.

    Each bottle can still have the lid screwed back on for safety!

    Treasured Nix

    Relaxing a bit, not much, she had to laugh, “That was impressive how you were able to carry her!” because it was! “I hope they’ve moved on.” But knowing the Hedge, they probably hadn’t.

    Looking towards the door, “We can give her a bit more time. If she doesn’t show up, I can head up and try calling her. But if she doesn’t, and you have the gas, we just need to get it to the damn thing right? Then light it up?” a shrug. They would try and make it work either way.

    Sapphires look away for a moment, “Out of the Dream, you can. There are skills that allow you to knock someone out of the Dream and follow them, to land the killing blow.” She was working towards that herself. “I just have to focus on the here and now.” A deep breath. Rhodes would be ok.

    Finally, Coco walks in. Thank whatever god you believe it. Because they needed numbers.

    With gas. So lots of gas. “Well, the more gas the better right?” can’t go wrong with too much gas.

    “Did you see Circe on your way here?” where was the Summer?

    And clearly, the Nix shouldn't be allowed to help crafting. She just couldn't the gas where it needed to go, yah for two gas things! Groaning, "Ok, I suck at this!"
