[Open] July Catch-All
đź§™ WHO: Nanaki (Red XIII) and YOU!
⚔️️ WHAT: Open log! Quests, prompts, and all manner of things.
đź•’ WHEN: Throughout July
🗺️ WHERE: All around Camelot and associated areas
⚠️ WARNINGS: None atm, will update as things go on!
Summer Fever
[Hearing about the latest summer fever that’s been going around is a little alarming, but fortunately it’s not deadly. But seeing as how many medical centres seem to need assistance from volunteers, Nanaki does eventually make his way over to see if he can help. While he is not a healer he does make use where he can, shepherding supplies to and fro and helping with deliveries. But there is one task that he ends up getting pulled into that seems perfect for someone like him.]
[There’s a section of one particular care center that is dedicated to children that have caught the summer fever. And what better care to provide a sick child than a big, furry animal to offer them comfort? He may not look like a cuddly puppy or a fluffy cat, but even despite the battle scars and intimidating aura, his presence seems to bring the children nothing short of absolute wonder and delight. Nanaki doesn’t do much, mostly just allows the kids to pet him, their tiny hands stroking at his fur, or agree to play games of catch with them. A few of the younger ones tug at his ears and mane, but he does his best to remain patient with him. A couple of the older, braver ones even ask to ride him, and he obliges, walking around the room carefully as pairs of giggling children squeal in delight on his back.]
[When playtime is over, he will lay down on the ground, or at the foot of one of the childrens’s beds if they ask him to. While they sleep he keeps watch, and perks up when someone enters the room.]
Try not to wake them. They just fell asleep.
Lavaft Behind
[All in all, the Geode Slime doesn’t look to be too dangerous when they finally approach the trapped monster; really, without the description they were given, it could easily be mistaken for another rock stuck in the magma pit. But he knows that the poor creature needs to be helped, and unfortunately knows there’s a very good chance they will be attacked once they freed it. Monsters and their defences…]
[His ears flick as he looks over the Geode Slime once more, before turning to his hunting companion.]
We should use what time we have to prepare for its attack. Unless you’re ready to attack it now.
The Farming Dead
[There is truly never a dull moment in Camelot, is there? But with the farms at risk of destruction at the hands of zombies, well, he can’t exactly let that remain untended to, can he?]
[Fighting undead monsters is not something unfamiliar to Nanaki, and his keen sense of sight makes him a good fit for anyone who’s fighting them, especially during the night. When the hordes come, he snarls, slashing at them with his claws or using elemental magic to blast them away. Those who he notices struggling he will rush over to and help thin the numbers, either by tackling the zombie bodily to the ground or freezing them in place with magic.]
Keep a sharp eye! We will fend them off together!
Clean Up Chaos
[Really, all Nanaki had been trying to do was order some food at one of the local restaurants. They even were familiar with him now, so ordering food wasn’t a big hassle anymore. But just as he’s approaching the restaurant, he lets out a rather undignified yelp as one of the magic brooms sweeps by and tries to “sweep” him up, bristles swatting at his legs and tail. He growls at the brooms, but then has to duck as a floating brush and dustpan also tries to swat at him, seemingly mistaking him for a piece of dust that needed to be cleaned. He snarls at the floating cleaning supplies, backing up as they seem to close in on him menacingly.]
Get back, unless you want to be torn to pieces!
[A little help?]

GO AWAY!! I was just finished my workout and I was going to take a bath in the springs anyway! [She manages to high kick the bucket away, but the scrub brush is relentless, and a bit harder to hit. So she just books it and...wouldn't you know, sees a familiar fuzzy friend also being assaulted by cleaning tools and products.]
Nanaki-san! Ooh, you--! [Alright, you know what? Ochako's just going to...grab one of the brooms by the handle as she rushes by, pivot on her opposite leg, and swing the broom like a bat at the chasing scrub brush. HIT A BRUSH WITH ANOTHER BRUSH...BROOM. THINGY.]
no subject
Over here--!
[He lets out a yelp as one of the brooms he'd been dealing with turns around and tries to sweep him up, effectively smacking his rump in the process. He snarls, channelling his magic and sending up a small burst of fire around him.]
no subject
She gets a hard smack on the back of her thigh which makes her yelp and hiss (ow, those bristles sting!), growling almost as bad as Nanaki does.]
What's with these stupid things?! [And taking a leaf out of her fuzzy friend's book, Ochako holds out her palm and creates a burst of flame, hoping to singe the end of those bristles and deter any further sweeping.]
no subject
[It seems that the fire does indeed seem to work in spooking the cleaning products a bit, which gives Nanaki a chance to stand at Ochako's side. He growls at the cleaning ingredients as they float a few feet before them.]
If we have a chance of fending off these things, we need to work together.
no subject
Right!! [She'll follow your lead, friend.]
no subject
no subject
One of the combs and brushes does try to make and advance on her, but she smacks it away with a palm strike, hissing slightly as some of the spines of the comb prick at her skin. Ow.]
I can't really attack with my hand-to-hand...I gotta use my magic, and my elemental's not all that stable. [...But--] Ah! I-If they get closer and clustered together, I-I can temporarily freeze them with my kinetic, then you can blast 'em all together with fire!!
no subject
Alright. I'll try to round them up for you!
[His own kinetic magic isn't as strong, but his elemental is plenty strong. So, letting go of the broom entirely, he runs around the cleaning supplies, trying to group them up together.]
no subject
As Nanaki herds the cleaning tools, Ochako does her park in trying to blast away any strays, or hurl them back towards the group. A few do try and target her at first, but Ochako's reflexes are getting better, and with a defensive stance, feet planted firmly on the ground, she can strife left or right and dodge, moving closer towards the cluster. Once everything is bunched up, or at least in a relatively good radius, she brings up her hands and holds them out, the pink glow on her fingertips bright as the tools lock up suddenly, surrounded by that same pink color, though they're jerking and twitching trying to break free of the hold.]
Nanaki-san, now!!
no subject
[Nanaki herds all the supplies into the middle of their little crowd, snapping at them and using his fire to make them float back and towards Ochako. Once he hears the signal from Ochako, he lands steady on his paws and lets out a howl, channeling his magic into a fireball large enough to engulf the supplies.]
[The poor supplies are engulfed in an impressive display of fire! And once it fades away, all that's left is piles of ash and a few charred metal bits.]
no subject
We did it!! Yeah! Nanaki-san, you magic was so cool!
[And uhh...don't mind her just. Wrapping her arms around his floofy neck in a tight hug and maaaybe giving him a pet and a scritchy or two. L-Look. Ochako has just been conditioned to give pets to good, good boys like Dark Shadow and other cute animals/familiars/quirk beings.]
no subject
[So yes, he can allow her to hug him tight, so long as she doesn't cut off his airways. And she does manage to find a spot behind his ear that feels good when she scritches at it, so he can indulge in this for a moment.]
Ah... thank you. I could not have done it without your help.
no subject
She sighs, giving one one final scritchy, then leans back as she releases him, somewhat wiped out now that the adrenaline has worn off.]
Haah...yeah, m-me too. Thanks, Nanaki-san, we make a pretty good team. Ah! Y-You're not hurt at all or anything, are you? [She's got a bit of a scrape on her knuckles from where she hit one of the combs that will need to be cleaned, just in case, but nothing broke skin.]
no subject
I agree; we did make quite a good team.
I am fine. Nothing that won't heal on its own.
[He's gotten a few bruises and scrapes, but overall it was surface injuries. He's dealt with far worse.]
But how are you doing?
no subject
[She shows her one hand, a nasty looking scratch running the length of a knuckle. It's not bleeding - wasn't enough to break every layer skin, but some of the skin was stripped back and cut up. It looks bad, but nothing more than the equivalent of a cat-scratch, really. Some soap, water, and a bandage would clear it up just fine.
She's dealt with way, way worse than this.]
Do you think you'll be okay now, on your own? I had some shopping I wanted to get done, but I really don't want any of those dumb things to attack again, if there's more of them.
no subject
It doesn't look too bad. Just be sure to clean it when you can.
I will be alright on my own. But if you are going out on errands, keep your wits about you. If you need someone to help you though, I can help keep an eye out.
[He doesn't want her to get assaulted by dustpans and mops!]
no subject
Well, I was going to do that, but now I'm not sure how much I should use this hand. I can always use my kinetic magic to carry thing though, I guess... [She hums thoughtfully.] I do need to restock the essentials at home.
[Rice (yes, it's an essential for her), eggs, milk, and maybe some more meat just to freeze and have.]
If it's not too much trouble for you, Nanaki-san, I wouldn't mind the company at all. I usually go shopping by myself, and it's a little bit boring... It'll be nice to have someone to talk to, and we can look out for one another!
no subject
[Maybe he's getting a little soft, but she's a teenager; if they were both of the same species, they'd be around the same age. And he wants to make sure she's okay!]
no subject
Though the yelps from several yards away indicates that the wayward cleaning tools are indeed still on the rampage. Best to perhaps part ways now and head home. Ochako has what she needs and waves goodbye before setting towards home. She'll be good from here!]
