    The summer sun is high in the sky, warming the ground below. The sounds of children's laughter ring throughout the park as kids dash from ride to ride, the voices of their parents or other minders calling out behind them. In the air, you can smell fried foods and sugar.

    A cloud, comes over the horizon in the shape of a a beat up, brown station wagon. It rumbles to a stop, and parks across the street from Funderland's main gate. The driver sitting for a moment, before exiting. He's fairly bulky, and well built, who heaves a great sigh, before reaching inside of the open window, and grabbing something. Holding it in his hand, for a moment, before slipping it over his shoulders, and zipping up the front. In another movement, more ritual and preformative, he pulls the Grey Hood up and pulls it over his head.

    Then he leans against his car. Settled in to wait.

    Circe had thought about what to wear to the meeting. There was the matter of professionalism versus low profile. That and she'd not like to risk her usual business suit uniform getting recognized by the Grey Hoodies. The attention from a suit would be problematic. That, and the bribe gift would be harder to explain. Or really clash with the suit.


    So, the Summer Queen went with street clothes as she leaned against a tree near the entrance, checking her phone whilst drinking from water bottle. Blue khakis pants, running shoes, and a blue hoodie of her own. That it hid her gun and vest were not relevant. It also went well with the stuff she wanted to carry. Especially the gym bag with the armored up grey hoodie inside. Circe looked like someone stopping on a run to the gym.


    Inaccurate, she'd jogged to here and the armored hoodie was heavy.


    And there was the mundy man of the hour! Probably given the hoodie and all that.


    Circe was the one with the bribe and the covert protection against being shot. But was anyone else in place? She sent a text to ask just that.


    Now, what was the code again? 12, 19, 21? No, different order. Give a 21, get a 12, give a 19.

    Gerrit

    Mien:
    Leathery scars, bruises and scaly scabs cover the whole hairless body. There is a certain symmetry to the disfigurements, the color of the visible skin ranging from pale pink to purple and dark red. Lately patches of dark blue and black - frostbite - have appeared on his skin and some of the scabs have frozen over and crystalized.
    His right hand shows a copper-coloured, wilted and flaky scar, engulfing most of his palm and the inside of his wrist. Next to frostbite and bruised scars it adds a third layer of wounds bore by the Ogre.

    Mantle:
    Contrast seem to grow slightly more stark around Gerrit, the crisp clearness of a winter morning. Sometimes the sound of ice forming or breaking can be heard in a short, brisk snap. When using Contracts a subtle, biting cold can be felt around Gerrit - pins and needles prick both the Onyx and those close to him.

    Crown:
    Solid, thick panes of clear ice symmetrically arranged around his head with fern frost at the base.
    Active Pledges

    Motley Pledge

    Only a result of 10 on a die is considered a success. Should a given die result in no successes, the failure is considered to be a dramatic failure, though the oathbreaker may spend a point of willpower to negate this, making it a regular failure.

    This meeting with the ragtag group of 'monster hunters' was a second chance as far as Gerrit was concerned. And frankly, not having seen Titania around for a while gave him high hopes that this time could be different. Some of them clearly were able to see beyond the Mask, that meant they knew things - and that meant they had to play nice. Best case scenario was that they gained some allies in the process. But to be safe he sent some Glamour through his veins with a burning sensation to harden his Mask. To him it sounded like water freezing over with a crack. A comforting sound.

    He came to the meeting unarmed, wearing only a jeans and a blueberry-colored button-up shirt. He didn't own any weapons, nor was he going to use any form of violence if he couldn't help it. The Ogre tried to hide his sigh of relief when he saw Circe, choked on the air and burst out into a coughing fit. Darn.
    Still, this Fairest had a good head on her shoulders when it came to diplomacy, so he was glad she was around. He eyed the man dressed to signal his allegiance to the group and shot a glance at Circe. "Hello." He didn't know what else to say, not right now.

    So Gerrit stayed true to his reputation and left it that for now.

    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

    To be honest, she wasn’t really sure what to expect from this. A little knowledge had been learned over time, but nothing solid.

    But she offered to help and here she was. She went dressed in dark colors, not that any of it looked depressing on her, it looked amazing on her. What could she say, she made casual looked good. Jeans, complete with tiny rain drop patch near her left hip pocket, tank top, Hedgespun jacket and sneakers. She pulled her long hair up into a messy and loose bun, held up with a music note clip. Not knowing if weapons were needed, she left her dagger at the Tavern. Only color came from the necklace, Hedgespun, that sat around her neck, and the red jewel that was her wedding ring.

    The Mask had been Hardened, not knowing exactly what was up, it was better to play it safe.

    It was easy to spot Circe and Gerrit, and the Treasured moves over towards them, “Hey.”

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 dressed... like Sonnie. Colorful casual wear. Blue jeans, her red boots, a green t-shirt under a purple and yellow windbreaker. A rainbow had puked on her, apparently. Hair was pulled back into a ponytail, with a pink baseball cap on top.

    Her bestial features were hidden under a layer of Glamour, so even other Fae couldn't detect them (except for her shadow having a tail, which she tried to mindful of). The Steepscrambler remembered these Union people (some of them, anyway) could see through the standard Mask. They might be aware of what the Changelings were (sort of), but she saw no reason to let them stare at her simian features.

    A small bag of BBQ flavored chips in hand, she wandered on up the the group of her fellow freeholders. "Wazzap?"

    Gerrit's arrival gets a worried look and raised ear when he starts coughing. Sera rolled up dressed to prove her superior Fairest fashionista skills to Circe. Circe had acknowledged this long ago, especially as she had too many suits already to change. Most notably, they all had hardened Masks.


    A precaution Circe had neglected. The mundies already saw Circe, no loss for it happening again to her and a sign of trust.


    "Ladies and gentleman," Circe reacts once everyone arrives. Also picks up her bag with a grimace at the weight, "Buona giornata. I brought one of three, a gift to give friendship a lift. Shall we head on over then?"


    If there are no objections, Circe will heft the bag and head over to start that code exchange.

    One by one the Lost gather. They can see the car and the Grey Hood, who everyone but Sera would recognize as the one with the horror movie baseball bat. Though he's sans bat as of now.

    No one else comes out of the car, in fact. It looks like no one else in the car.

    The ball's in the Lost's court, do they all follow Circe and approach? Does someone hide (just in case)? Or do they allow the Summer to lead the charge, while they hold back, and keep playing the waiting game?

    Stonebones Snowskin

    The two most notable members of the Spring Court arrived and Gerrit was awestruck for a brief moment. Sonnie seemed as.. carefree as the last time, but maybe having Seraphina here in Titania's stead might be the notable difference here. Gerrit nodded to each of them in greeting and then let Circe do her thing. He wasn't a diplomat, nor a good talker - but he wanted to show his presence as a gesture of good faith.

    Plus, he still wanted to be there in case things went south. The alliance was shaky at best and they couldn't be sure that the Grey Hoods were still willing to combine their efforts.
    The Onyx Courtier will follow the others if asked to climb into the car or follow the gang member elsewhere.

    Sonnie was…Sonnie. And Sera still loved her anyways and wouldn’t have her any other way.

    A smile and wave, “Hi.” Looks like there was going to be a decent number of them here.

    Watching Circe pick up the bag and mention it was a gift, the Treasured looked a bit confused, but figured pieces will start to fall into place. It was when the Summer started walking to a random car, with a random guy, that Sera figured the gift was for him? Maybe? Whatever, she fellows the elf, ready to lend support if needed. Or simply be a pretty face, or be charming. She can do that, but she'll follow Summers lead.

    "Yay! Let's go get into a stranger's car! At least it's not a white panel van." the Beast chimed in as the approached the Grey Hood's vehicle. Another chip was consumed as she eyed the driver. "Hey, it's the bat guy!"

    Sonnie wasn't here for strategy or diplomacy. Not her fortes. She was here in case things went south and someone needed their balls kicked in. She was notably sticking close to Seraphina, as a good Claviger should. It was also just animalistic instinct to protect her troop.

    How does Sera dress down like that but still look frickin' super gorgeous? Must be a Fairest thing. I'm dressed like Rainbow Brite and I doubt anyone will be distracted away from her.

    Oh, well. Sonnie might lack that otherworldly beauty, but she was still plenty confident in her own hotness. The Steepscrambler turned heads all the time... when the Unicorns weren't around.

    Leaning into the car, she smiled and proffered the bag she held towards the Union man. "Chip? They're Bar-B-Que!" Huh, maybe she could do diplomacy, after all.
