Spider Shopping

[Circe]

"Grk!" It wasn't clear what Circe was reacting to. The pinch, or the cuteness of the thing trying and failing to bite her. A few facial tics and ear flicks later, Circe has hoisted the adorable ball of teeth and fluff out of the engine block and placed him beside his parent. "Here ya go. Iron Sider's have weird carriages, wait?" She looks in confusion at the hob, "What market?"

[Seraphina]

The Nix beams with pride as the baby hob seems soothed by her song. That worked a lot better than watching Circe get turned into a chew toy, though it was amusing.

As the elf places the baby down, Sera kneels down again, looking at the baby. Her eyes were looking for blood, cuts or anything that would need to be tended to. Glancing to the mother, “I’m just looking to see if he’s hurt and needs medicine.” Wanting her to know she was trying to help.

[Saber Sloth]

"Market!" The bunny-ish hob mom nod ever so vigorously, "Buy-Sell-Barter-Beg!" an alarmed squeak as Sera takes a look, though the noise slows, to just a slight squeak as her nose twitches. The mom, looks to her baby and to Sera and seems to make a deliberate choice to return to the conversation, "North-north-West-west! Sal's-not-Sal's!"

It's a good thing that the Siren checks for injuries on the young hob, his rusty fur is red with slick blood near his neck and one of his paws is twisted. THe baby keens whenever Sera goes near it.

[Circe]

She questions the parent's words. "Sal's but not Sal's? Oh!" Circe makes a deduction, "Must be in the ruins of this Sal's. That makes sense."

She then looks to Seraphina, "The little guy okay? I don't have hob fruits but alcohol and 4 ply might help fer treatment. I mean they're both too cute ta not help them." A beat passes. The Summer Queen had indeed said that. Was she going to excuse it?

Nope. For as one grand speech put it, cute makes right.

[Seraphina]

Sera, for her part, does not make sudden movements, her hands moving slowly, making sure the baby and mom could see what she was doing.

And when she saw the blood and his injured paw, her heart felt like it was breaking. “Oh, you poor little guy.” Her words soft and gentle. Slipping off her jacket, she tries to tear away fabric from her t shirt, looking to the mom. “He’s injured, and I would like to try and help him.” Glancing to Circe, “Do we have any water?” she didn’t remember if she brought any. “I’m not sure how bad the injury is near his neck, and his paw is twisted. I don’t have a first aid kit with me, but I still might be able to help. But only if you want me to, because it could hurt.” She hasn’t made any move towards his paw, still working at tearing some fabric.

“Well, his paw is twisted and he has some blood on him. I want to try and mend it, and alcohol might help with infection. Could at least wipe down any wounds near his neck with it.” And wait, did Circe just say the hobs were cute?! Now wasn’t the time to question it, “They are indeed. But this little guys injury is our fault and I don’t want to leave him like that.” A gentle smile to the baby and mom.

Wasn't sure if there should be a roll for Sera tearing pieces of fabric from her shirt or not. But I will gladly roll if there is

[Circe]

"Oh I am NOT objecting ta helping the little fella," she smiles at them as well, "We ain't the big of assss, er, jerks like that."

Circe remembers her Funderland training: never cuss before kids

"Right here," she takes the water bottle from one of her many coat pockets to hand it off to Seraphina. And her dainty scarf too. Then hops into the trunk to retrieve her dufflebag. It and Circe quickly come back, bag open. Circe rifles through to get a tequila bottle and a roll of 4-ply toilet paper. "More options. Ya know, all else fails, maybe this market mommy cutie mentioned has healing fruits."

[Saber Sloth]

The mom's nose twitches, she and her baby squeak. The mom rubs her front paws together, "Fruit-fruit, forage fruit?" she asks, fear and nerves making her vibrate as she stands, her large eyes pinned to her baby. "Market-away-away. Far hops. Steed travel, or Trod bounds."

The baby under Sera's scrutiny, trembles, squeaking out those Animal Crossing villager sounds, though with his mom closer and not terribly fearful, seems to be calming down as well.

If you want to make sure everything's taken care of to the best of your abilities, and the makeshift bandage is placed correctly you can roll Dex+Medicine

And if you want to do a quick look around to forage for goblin fruit you can roll a Int+Survival.

[Seraphina]

Accepting the water bottle, she opens it, and offers some to the baby. The scarf was placed on her knee, in case she needed it. Glancing at the tequila, she smirks to the elf, “You always come prepared, don’t you?” she teases. “The market is a possibility, but if I can set it, it should lessen some of the pain. But fruits are always a good idea.” Though not the ones Sonnie had.

An understanding nod, “So it would take us some time to get to the market and back.” A sigh, not ideal. “We’ll have to make do with what we have.” She’d never tried to heal a rabbit hob before.

Opening the tequila, she pours some on her hands, wanting to vomit at the smell. It had never been her favorite drink way back when. Then she sits on the ground and holds her hands out to the baby, “I want to try and fix your paw, if you’ll let me.” And keeps her hands out, letting the baby make the decision to put his paw in her hands, if he does, she carefully wraps the twisted paw with the scarf and any shirt scraps she was able to tear off. “If this hurts, I’m very sorry. But it will feel better.” And as she works, she hums softly a gentle smile on her lips.

"Okay Sera," she hops back up to retrieve the machete, "You do what ya can Imma look around here see if there is helpful herbs or nums. If he gets really upset, the candy bar is still on the hood."

Probably not sanitary but this is the Hedge.

Circe then looks to the mother, "Shout loud if something nasty shows up and I'll come running ta defend ya all. The Summer Spear shall defend yer family today."

[Saber Sloth]

Experience and calm settle around Sera, and her young patient the boy only squeaking now as he breathes, a nassial squeak as he breathes in and out. Though at the Tequila smell, both hob's noses twitch and disgust lines their snouts, but she's allowed to work. Wrapping the paw, checking the cuts. Even if Circe comes back empty handed, the poor hob is well taken care of.


Being Autumn, she's hunting for something not as noticeable as the other healing fruit she knows of, like Dream-a-Drupe of Blushberries, but she of the keen of eye, and deft of hand knows where to look. Foraging is easy for the Larcenist, as easy as slipping something shiny into a pocket without whomever owns it noticing.

Not far from where Sera is tending to the babe and settling his mama, the elf spots blossoms that curls upwards towards the end of their leaves - Murmurleaf! Just want she needs to help the rusty furred baby.

Murmurleaf is a Healing fruit! Healing 1L or 2B ! Circe finds 2!
