[ open ] Catch All
🧙 WHO: Xiao + you!
⚔️️ WHAT: Catch All
🕒 WHEN: Throughout March
🗺️ WHERE: Various
⚠️ WARNINGS: TBD
( Smoothies: options A and B )
[ Prior to this place, very rarely would Xiao partake in consuming human-prepared food. He doesn't understand the the need to combine things in a variety of different ways. Why all of this effort put into preparation? It seems like quite the waste of time and effort for a couple of moments spend consuming what had been prepared. Truthfully, he had only been passing by when the individuals selling these blended, flavored drinks seem to think that he is in need of them. Apparently it doesn't matter how much Xiao ignores them or attempt to pass by their wares, these sellers are persistent - even going so far as to shove small samples in his hands before moving on.
So, at first, Xiao merely sighs and figures that he might as well. No need to be rude. Butterfly pea-lemon tea seems to be the first flavor. There seems to be a calm that washes over him. Things that bothered the Yaksha in the past? Don't seem like such a big deal now. One can only wonder how this newfound inner peace is going to effect him. Maybe he'll try new foods! Or fall asleep in some random location... Or staring off into space.
The second flavor on the docket would be a strawberry-rose. It's a bit strong, of course, though over all Xiao finds he doesn't actually mind he cool, almost foamy and light texture of the smoothies. Don't expect him to be overt in his "flirting," if one can even call it that. Just a light touch here or there. A need to be closer than usual. When it wears off... Well. Won't that be a surprise. ]
( Bunny Café Chaos )
[ This should really be a simple task. How hard is it to poke a head into a café, scan said café for a particular rabbit, then leave? That's what his intention is at any rate. No need to linger.
Yet Xiao finds himself in a rather odd predicament. Odd for him anyway. ]
Move. [ He is telling this to a stubborn little thing that has taken the liberty to just block his exit. ] The one I seek is not here. I must move on.
[ Wait. Is he really being held captive by a couple of rabbits? Seems so! By the time anyone comes to check up on him, he's going to be covered in the furry little creatures, sort of frozen in place. ]
( Hay Fever: options A and B )
[ Originally Xiao had come along just for his own curiosity. This world does not have need for his particular skillset - not in the way that the Yaksha has always done - so he is still trying to find out where he fits in all this. Still feeling his way through. Thus Xiao thinks that it would be fine to simply observe.
What he doesn't expect is to be ushered along with other healers to perform this one-off spell. In fact, it seems as though he is about ready to argue over that. ]
I am no healer... [ "But you do have healing magic, right?" Which has Xiao making a slight noise and shift his weight. Whatever the case, he doesn't look comfortable. Looks like he might be in need of assistance in either 1) getting out of the situation or 2) being encouraged to proceed. ] That is of no consequence.
[ Additionally, all of this hay being tossed around is really stirring things up! Either Xiao or someone close at hand will soon have to contend with a next of those pesky pixies. They seem to really enjoy pulling and tugging on hair - be it Xiao's or whoever is working with him. ]
( Wildcard )
[ Obviously you know what to do either. Feel free to hit me up on discord or plurk. Or throw a comment my way on the meme! ]

Ehe, it seems we can get some work done together, after all, Xiao!
[Be proud of him??? Who says music doesn't pay.]
no subject
I think it was pure dumb luck and coincidence more than any true work being done.
no subject
[He's WOUNDED. Not really.]
At least we got our charge. They'll pay us for that, isn't that right?
no subject
[ He can't... Deny that. Not really. Nor should he right? It's...
They are... ]
Shall we return him? We will, indeed, get paid. Then if you so desire you can return.
no subject
Let's return the little rascal to his home, then! And be paid in due for all our hard work.
[Look! He's done work for money! Real money! He hops up from his seat to follow Xiao. Oh- He also puts down those floating bunnies that he left in the air... Plop.]
The rest of the day spent with these bunnies doesn't seem such a waste to me, though. I might stick around.
no subject
[ All right. Xiao might be teasing a little. Just a little. He knows that the gift of song is a special one. It is one that he longs to have himself but does not see happening in the foreseeable future. In a way, he is rather envious that venti is allowed such a carefree life.
Not too envious though. ]
Come along then. I bet the wine you have tonight shall taste better than the rest.
no subject
[Although he might get an argument out of Xiao for this one. So straight-laced as he is.]
But today I'll see if you're right.
no subject
[ At least that's what it has always felt like to him? When he's actually taken a moment for himself. Anyway! Xiao hands off the rabbit to Venti. The Archon will likely handle it better than Xiao. ]
no subject
That's commendable, Xiao. We did do proper work today. I promise, I do feel satisfied.
[He might not want to work for all his wine but... he'll take today.]
no subject
]
Perhaps you could even ask for their finest as a reward instead of funds?
no subject
Do you think they'd agree to such an arrangement? I'll have to ask and see! There's no harm in that. Ehe!
[And maybe he'll find himself happy with a new drink tonight.]
no subject
[ Thus they take the rabbit back to the home. Chances are that the creature will break out again, so they say. However the reward will still be granted to them both. Venti does, of course, request some wine as compensation. It is awarded to him and thus the night is spent in comfortable silence.
And Venti not knowing his drinking limits. ]
