call me out v. 14.0

[misheard]

Call out one of the characters from my muselist with a starter, a prompt, a general 'hey can we do something with these characters' comment, a smoke signal, etc., and I'll get back to you with some kind of RP thread!

Old CR, new CR, assumed CR, canonmates, AU, crossover, whatever, it's all good.

Comments

[gemuinemanagement]

I'm very grateful for your efforts, Mandricardo.

[...that name is kind of long to fingerspell, isn't it.]

[duranduel]

A-Ah...

[He's blushing, now.]

Like I said...no big deal...really...

[gemuinemanagement]

[And now Suga's blushing because Mandri's blushing.]

It's a big deal to me. Is there anything I can do to repay you?

[duranduel]

I-I-I haven't done anythin' yet!

[gemuinemanagement]

Right. Well, we can find her whenever you want.

[duranduel]

Okay...I just need some more info on her as far as what has and hasn't worked in the past and stuff like that, but...we can give it a try whenever.

[gemuinemanagement]

I make protective charms out that are designed to ward away evil spirits, and she definitely doesn't like them, but it hasn't really hurt her.

[duranduel]

Charms...well, I'm not well-versed in that department.

Nobody's tried to help you with this?

[gemuinemanagement]

I can give you some I've made if that would help.

Like I said, I'm the only mage here, and we're too out of the way for anyone else to really bother coming out here?

[duranduel]

That might help. But you're really in a tough position. Goodness. That must be a big burden on ya, Master.

Glad I can help.

[gemuinemanagement]

It's been... difficult.

[And thankless work.]

You can just call me Suga if you want. No need to stand on ceremony.

[duranduel]

A-Are you sure...?

[It seems a bit too casual, but...]

I mean, don't want to disrespect ya...

[gemuinemanagement]

'Master' makes me feel awkward.

[He's not worthy of that respect in the first place.]

[duranduel]

I...I don't want to make you feel awkward...

[Aren't mages supposed to love attention and the acknowledgement of power...?]

[gemuinemanagement]

[His personality is much more like a normal person's.]

I don't want to make you feel awkward either. If you'd prefer Master...

[duranduel]

[He is realizing that very quickly.]

No, no! I'm the one who has to do things to make you feel better, so...Suga it is.

[gemuinemanagement]

Thank you.

[After they finish their sandwiches, Suga shows Mandricardo to where he keeps the protective charms. He pulls out a pendant made from a glowing blue stone. The craftsmanship is top-notch - it would make for beautiful jewelry even if it didn't have any other purpose.]

[duranduel]

Ohh...

[He reaches out to take it in hand.]

It's really beautiful...

[gemuinemanagement]

[More compliments... Suga looks away shyly.]

Thank you.

[duranduel]

Um. Yeah. Shame to have to use this for an evil spirit...

[He nods, wondering if he's making it awkward for Suga again.]

How does it work, exactly?

[gemuinemanagement]

You wear it, and if a spirit tries to hurt you, they're repelled and the charm breaks. How long they're repelled for depends on the strength of the spirit.

[duranduel]

That's pretty nifty.

How many of these can you wear at a time? Just one?

[gemuinemanagement]

No, but I only have about three or four ready? They take time to make.

[duranduel]

Got it.

This spirit...is she like...physical? Like does she exist in our plane?

[gemuinemanagement]

She is. So you should be able to at least hit her with any weapon.
