[The Great Hunny Hunt (Or Live Free and Die Bun)]

First of all, Chris had no idea there could be this many bunny cafes in a given location. In all actuality, she would have probably only figured there were one or two. But no, this was her fifth one today and it wasn't even the last.

Of course, she hadn't found Sir Fuzzlerton. Not yet, anyway. And what's more, this particular cafe wasn't so keen on letting her wait around just in case he appeared. So? She was forced to work for her time, wearing one of the (admittedly cute) cafe worker uniforms (complete with rabbit ears) and helping wait tables and seat new customers.

She felt absolutely mortified.

If you came in, you'd be greeted by her smiling awkwardly as you came in. "Hello! How can I help make your day a bit more bunny?" she said, doing her absolute best not to sound mortified.

She was failing.

Drastically.

[Manhunt]

The hunt for the so-called Snagglefoot Miffen was much more Chris's speed. You didn't think a short girl with pigtails could be intimidating, but she was able to get enough information on his whereabouts before he even made it to the Red Spring Inn.

Unfortunately, when Chris tried to confront the thief, he took off running. And what's more, he was fast, where Chris most certainly wasn't.

"Stop that man!" Chris called, as she tore off after him, between huffing and puffing. She had called it out several times, but as of yet, no one had tried to help her. Maybe you could be the first? Or perhaps you're her partner in taking Snagglefoot down.

[Music in the Streets]

Chris hadn't planned to end up in the middle of a street performance. But she truly loved music, even if she didn't always show it outwardly. So, when she came across a group of bards doing a street performance, she couldn't help but stop and listen. And as she stopped and listened, she ended up singing along, and well...

The bards took notice. They didn't care what she sang, but they took her out of the crowd, and compelled her to sing with them. Chris was highly embarassed, but she couldn't say no, especially with all those people around her, so expectant.

And so, she she sang. She was surprised the bards knew it, but... happy nonetheless. It wasn't one of Chris's own songs from within, but it was a song she appreciated... and it made her think of her friends.

Are you in the crowd? Just passing by to listen? Or are you coming in at the end, as Chris finishes, and finally steps down from the performance?

[Training]

Chris was always up for honing her magical skills, so she could often be found on the training grounds. The order of the day was what it usually was—target practice. She'd gotten skilled in forming magical arrows, and that was what she was practicing with: arrows made of flame, ice, and electricity, and working how to aim and fire them properly in conjunction with her bow.

You could approach her then, or you could wait for Chris herself to approach you; she figures enough practice is enough, and seeks out someone directly. "Hey," she said, with an awkward wave. "I don't suppose you'd be interested in sparring?"

The old man and Hibiki had truly taken too much influence over her.

music

[ofnovalue]

Honestly, Chris' music was just enchanting. The young girl had a superb talent for song, and the crowd was quick to reward her with not only boistorous cheers, but a few donations as well. It was mostly money, but in one case, Chris was being handed a smoothie...

And following up the hand that offered it to the beaming face of the person holding it, revealed one Princess Ovelia, smiling brightly.

"Lady Chris leads angels to envy, with such an amazing voice!"

[trustheart]

Chris is... utterly thrown as donations are thrown her way, to the point she was still stunned as she took the smoothie. It was only when Ovelia spoke that she was snapped out of it.

"A-ah! Ovelia!" she exclaimed. "Come on now, I'm not that good!"

[ofnovalue]

"Tis little need to be so humble, Lady Chris," Ovelia giggled, covering her lips with her now free hand.

"Truly, you would make a skilled bard, as well as a knight. Consider that royal decree," the princess winked.

[trustheart]

Chris looked helpless for a moment, before deciding she'd better just live with it. Besides, Ovelia wasn't doing it to tease her—her compliment seemed genuine.

"Alright, alright," she said. "I guess I'll take it. Th... Th..."

She swallowed hard, before finally saying: "Thank you."

[ofnovalue]

"I accept your thanks graciously, and with honor," Ovelia spoke, giving a small bow. She could tell this was a bit of a struggle for Chris, so she eased up on her praise, as much as she felt compelled to keep heaping it on, thanks in part to her new smoothie addiction.

"Come, Lady Chris. Walk with me, if you would be so kind."

[alchemists]

[ Elfnein couldn't help but give a small laugh after being greeted by Chris. She had been trying to look at the other cafes in order to cover more ground but wasn't expecting the full get up. ]

I'm already having a good day ~

[trustheart]

[Chris let out a sigh that was a mixture of aggravated and exhausted. Of course Elfnein was going to see her like this. Of course.]

Hi, Elfnein. Have you made any progress?

[alchemists]

I think I might have narrowed down the search area. There's been a few different people talking about a lot of noise happening at one of the other nearby cafes.

[trustheart]

[Chris blanched.]

Noise, huh? [She had a feeling she knew what the "noise" was, given the context of their mission.]

Ugh. I see. But uhm. I think I gotta finish a shift before they'll let me go...?

[alchemists]

There's no way they can just let you come back later?

[ Maybe if she joins in on working they can go early. ]

Manhunt

[redfightinghood]

Ruby is very much still trying to get acclimated to the world around her. It's difficult to not get distracted or weighed down by the thoughts of what she wasn't doing in her own world. But, if helping this world out was the only way to do that, she'd do just that. It was just... more a matter of not yet having narrowed down where would be best to put her foot forward.

Hearing someone shout that however causes her to react almost immediately. In a blur of magic acceleration, Chris will suddenly find a girl who is... actually taller than Chris herself, if slightly, running alongside her.

"Stop who in the what now?"

[trustheart]

"Eh-eh?!" Chris exclaimed. "Where the heck did you come from?!"

Ruby had come out of nowhere, which was surprising enough. But it wasn't just that, she had to be just a hair taller too, didn't she?!

Chris grit her teeth, and without waiting for an answer, pointed at the fleeing man well ahead of him.

"That guy! He's a thief!"

[redfightinghood]

"Ohhhh." She looks ahead of them, at the fleeing man. "Alrighty, then!"

What happens next occurs in only a few seconds: Ruby accelerates ahead of Chris and grabs her weapon. Snapping Crescent Rose out into scythe mode and chucks it ahead of her, to land upside down, pole facing to the air. Ruby then accelerates FASTER, launching herself off the ground, adjusting herself to slam her feet into the pole/rifle section of the weapon, which then sends it - and her - spinning rapidly through the air after the thief.

"HELLO!" she chirps merrily to the man as she speeds past him. She quickly finds the weapon's trigger even as she spins and fires a sudden shot from the rifle section. That shoots into the air, and she rockets to land on the ground, grabbing the weapon and swinging it around to brandish in the man's path.

[trustheart]

Chris can barely keep up. It's only her experience as a wielder that makes her senses sharp enough to follow the red-headed girl's actions, and even then, she has no hope to match them in her untransformed state.

"Holy shit!" she exclaimed. "That was fast...!"

Snagglefoot is barely able to stop himself from running into the girl and her scythe. His eyes meet Ruby's in panic, before he spins on his heel and rushes for an alleyway, still intent on getting away.

[redfightinghood]

"Yeah, that's a bad idea," she says, though probably not loud enough for the thief to hear, and she doesn't seem rushing to follow him.

See, whatever the heck her familiar is, it has this habit of sticking to the shadows around the city.

As such, the alley the guy ducks down suddenly has a howl and a growling sound echo out from it as her still-unnamed - because she's still wrapping her head around it and naming something that looks like THAT is weird to her - Beowolf Grimm makes his presence known.

Ruby instead just covers the entrance to the alley.

"Seriously, you're probably better off taking your chances with us."

Manhunt

[roseeclair]

Makoto is busy getting herself a pretzel at a nearby kiosk when YUP, that is a girl around Usagi's height trying to chase down a wiry, scraggly man. ... That looked a lot like the wanted picture in that one quest ad. Probably his latest victim trying to run after him.

Makoto takes a fraction of a second to set her pretzel down before bolting after him, and not only is she much taller than Chris with longer legs, she's built like an Amazon. It's barely any effort for her to catch up to the thief and tackle him to the ground.

"Why don't you pick on someone your own size?"

Okay, line's a little cliche, but it works here.

[trustheart]

"I haven't done anything to anyone!" Snagglefoot protested, crying out as he was tackled. Immediately he tried to worm away from her; the guy was pretty slippery as it turned out.

"Don't move!" Chris called out as she caught up to him, training her bow on the thief. Immediately, he let out a yelp and stopped struggling.

[roseeclair]

WELP, that sure is a bow in Mako's face too. At least it's not pointed at her and she relaxes after a second, still not letting go of Miffen as she sighs.

"Probably a good idea to listen to her, pal." She looks up at the definitely-not-helpless maybe-victim. "Got a rope or handcuffs or something?"

[trustheart]

[Chris nods, taking out a bit of rope she had tied to her quiver's belt strap.]

Sure do. [She tosses it to Makoto.] Thanks for your help.

[roseeclair]

[Mako gives as much of a smile a nod as she can before easing up just enough to start tying Miffen's wrists together.]

No problem, glad I could.

[A few half minute and LOTS of whining from Miffen later, his wrists seem to be bound tightly and Mako finally stands... and towers over the silver-haired girl. Not as tall as Miffen- who seems to slouch quite a bit having been cowed- but definitely a few inches taller.]

great hunny hunt

[birdflipping]

Nero had picked out the nearest cafe he could find without looking too closely at any of the signage outside. So he's bewildered when he finds himself in a rabbit cafe, with a girl addressing him wearing -- of course -- bunny ears.

He's not going to help her embarrassment any further, because he's just squinting at her Chris she's grown a second head.

"...I just want a coffee."

[trustheart]

Chris sighs heavily, before nodding. She's still feeling self conscious, but at least by focusing on the job, she can get through this.

"Right this way then," she said, leading him towards a table. There are all sorts of rabbits around on their way. "Do you want anything in particular in that coffee?"

[birdflipping]

Nero's careful to watch where he's going, lest the accidentally step on one of the rabbits in his heavy combat boots, until he's safely seated. He kind of thinks Kyrie and the kids would like it here... Maybe he should bring them some other time.

"Just a regular espresso is fine. No sugar."

[trustheart]

Chris nods. "Alright then... I'll get that for you in just a minute."

And she's off to get his drink. Meanwhile, as she's gone, the door to the front of the cafe opens... and in hops a certain missing rabbit. He sniffs the air for a moment, before starting to hop in Nero's direction.

[birdflipping]

Having not even realised there was a missing rabbit or a related quest to track it down, Nero just assumes this is another of the rabbits that lives at the cafe. Tentatively, so as not to scare it, he leans down and stretches out a hand.

"Hey there, fluffball."
