Full Speed Ahead!
🧙 WHO: Big Bro Cleveland and you fine folks
⚔️️ WHAT: Quests, wandering around, and a network post
đź•’ WHEN: First few weeks of February
🗺️ WHERE: Camelot
⚠️ WARNINGS: Fighting, shouldn't be anything too bad though!
I – Sashimi Slayer
This was silly, sort, she thought to herself as she raised rigging up to block the hail of rice bullets that were heading towards her partner! The armor was more than enough to stop them and have the insidious grains bounce off harmlessly. Sword in hand she gave an embarrassed grin at the other person she was shielding.
“It’s… a lot tougher than I thought it would be.”
She chuckled, if only she could those large guns of hers working again. Or at least her small arms working then things would be different. Well at least they made for decent shields. Cleveland really doubted there would be much here that could penetrate her armor. Granted the whole thing is still awfully heavy. To put things bluntly.
This probably wouldn’t be too bad of a time to start flexing her magical muscles.
II – Delivery Quest
A simple delivery quest huh? Easy enough she thought after picking up her package in question. Filled to the brim with delectable chocolates, treats, and even beer! She didn’t think Valentine’s was a thing here, but it seemed like some people here celebrated it! Which was pretty cool and gave her a sense of familiarity.
The locals also seemed to be curious about it, if the order was anything to go by.
A simple, easy delivery through Camelot… that’s what she thought. Until, gasp! ”That’s an awfully large package you got there boy. Want some help making it lighter?”
A group of five thugs step out from a nearby alley, making their way over towards Cleve! Still… boy? Sure she looks like a rather pretty boy, especially when she was dressed in anything but her usual get up. But still… why does everyone insist on calling her a boy? Even here!
”And by lighter we’s means you should go on and hand it over to us an’ walk away.” Stated Thug#2! Choco thieves! Cleveland’s face hardened, ready to defend her package.
“Nah, I don’t think I’ll be doin’ that. Sorry pal.” She was more than capable of handling herself, rigging or not. Still it would be a pain to deal with a group that size by herself! "This package is under the protection of one of the Knights of The Sea! It's somethin' that someone else was really hoping to get! Someone that ain't you guys!"
III – Walking along the beach
Cleveland strode alongside the port of Camelot, red eyes matching that of the sunset behind the overcast clouds as they watch the ships and boats off the coast. There was a hint of longing in her gaze, what she would give to be out on those awful waves again. The wind didn’t really bother her through her leggings or coat. For a moment she wondered if she could find herself a spot on one of the ships out there.
Just for a little bit.
Being on land was fine, but only for a moment. “Eh… I must be losin’ it!”
She said it out loud and with a hint of exasperation. Hm… she needs a distraction.
IV – Network Post: Video / un; CL-55
Yo! So I’ve been wonderin’, there any places that might be hirin’ around here?
[She looks a bit embarrassed as she asks.]
Ya know, like somethin’ other than the quests. They’re awesome and a great way to make some scratch off to the side but they’re not all that steady. Preferably something that might involve the sea? If not that’s fine. Just figured I should ask around!
[Asking about local businesses that might be hiring. Well it would help give her something to do at least!]

Dust had one hand lifted, but Cleveland had protected him well enough that he didn't need to whirl around some wind to protect him. His other still held the Blade of Ahrah, as it virtually always did, but Dust hadn't even dropped into a combat stance yet.
Battle was comfortable, after all. A good place to relax and even poke some gentle fun.
no subject
Not like it could actually penetrate her defenses, and if it tried it would be met with two swords plus magic. That or the fish monster thing got angry enough it charges.
Not that its own wasabi swords would do much either. Eventually it does switch it up and run towards them. Swords swinging down to clang against her hull to no effect! "You know what? Go for it."
no subject
Not that he was ignoring their enemy, mind! With its next swing, Dust met its wasabi weapon with the Blade of Ahrah, hard and fast enough that the force of the collision rippled a shockwave through the air and knocked both of them back. Expecting this, Dust recovered first, whirling Ahrah through one broad arc and then another to carve into the monster.

She doesn't have much time to question that. Yeah, animating a giant sushi-creature is a... unique spell. Cleve goes ahead and moves aside to give him some room to work as he does his shockwave attack, knocking off some of the thing's arms. Awesome! Her own sword pressed out to keep it busy and from recovering. Occasionally parrying with the blade and blocking with her rigging. This was really going to take some getting used to.
The ship girl moves off to the side as he came in again. Giving him room to work while doing her best to keep their opponent busy.
no subject
"I'm going to use wind!"
no subject
Another block from her hull followed by the slash of her sword to chop off another limb. Very quickly, or at least as quick as Cleve can move on land, she backs away. Using her armor to block another strike and push Lord Sashimi away from her.

At the very least whatever he was doing he wouldn't be alone doing it!
