The Clothes Alchemize the Man

[Rinea may not have won the sewing contest last month, but the renewed interest in magicked textiles it caused has made the tailor's shop she embroiders for quite busy. Rinea has had a quiet month, just catching up with orders... and when the tailor closed for a holiday, Rinea thought it would be a good time to go into the shop herself to drop things off.

But turning in her embroidery is but the work of a moment... and with time to herself Rinea is admittedly curious. Maybe she can get in some practice? She has managed to enchant simple decorations into her work, but what if she could use alchemy and kinetic magic to infuse the fabric itself with magical qualities? Like floating?....

When the shop bell dings at the door opening, Rinea looks up with surprised from the lacy, long-tailed bow she was enchanting. She had meant to lock the door behind her, but--!!]

Oh! I'm sorry-- the tailor is away for the moment. [Rinea hurries to curtsy in greeting and the ribbon flutters sadly back to the table, enchantment abandoned.]

Is there-- Is there something I can help you with?

Potion of Don't Die

[Rinea is still not very familiar with using the network. When she wound up with extra doses of her emergency potion after her venom quest, and hoped to do a public service by providing them to others... well, her first thought was putting up posters.

You may see Rinea with her ever-looming familiar posting her little advertisements around the analog notice boards around the city. The posters read:

First Aid Potion - Doses Available
For Emergencies in the Absence of a Healer
Stabilizes a gravely wounded person's vitals to allow their rescuer to transport them to a healer.
Lasts 15 minutes-1 hour, depending on severity of the wound.

current stock limited - pay for cost of materials

It also lists dates and times she's available, and where to contact Rinea should you want one made after her current stock runs dry.

She seems to have the potions on her, if the satchel on her person is any indication-- so you're free to approach!

OOCly, if you'd like a potion of don't die outside of this prompt-- just comment here and we can handwave!]

Comments

[silvergarden]

Lady Chris? [Rinea lights up at the mention, looking less nervous. A friend of a friend is much less intimidating!]

Why, yes! She is my roommate. You must be her gentleman caller.

[rinea......]

[notquitetamed]

[What? Gentleman caller? They're just friends even if he'd like it to be more. At least it's a good thing he's not the sort to show being flustered or embarrassed and he can totally play it cool. But at the same time, he doesn't really count as a gentleman caller, so who is calling upon her?]

Oh no, nothing like that. We've just done a few quests and are friends.

[silvergarden]

Is that so? Forgive my misinterpretation! You are simply who I hear of from her most often. [Rinea seems hardly fussed, though. Lady Chris is a lovely person, so in Rinea's opinion it would only be right for people to fall over themselves for her hand.]

Putting that aside... [Rinea works to open her satchel as she continues the conversation.] I would be happy if you would accept one of my tinctures. The quests you embark upon must be terribly dangerous!

[notquitetamed]

[That comment does cause a slight raise of an eyebrow from Hawk. Really, Chris talking about him? Probably doesn't mean anything though because she's definitely far more than what he deserves.

But he's going to just move on and take up that subject change because this just sounds like she'll probably get the wrong idea no matter what he says or asks here.]

Yeah, I'm interested. How much do I owe for the materials?

[silvergarden]

You may just take it! I insist. [Having fished out one of the vials, Rinea presses it into Hawk's hand.] If you take on quests with Lady Chris with any regularity, then I of course want you and her to be as safe as possible. She is a dear friend to me, you understand.

[Rinea laces her fingers together, looking at Hawk appraisingly.] I admit I am envious that you can go questing with her at all. I wouldn't consider myself skilled enough yet... Lady Chris is quite strong, is she not?

[notquitetamed]

[He'll go ahead and take it. It's clear she's going to insist and he can't really deny that he'd be more inclined to use such a thing to make sure Chris is safe than himself.]

Yeah, she's very strong and one hell of a woman. [And way too good for someone like him. He gets that he's too damn messed up to be worthy of someone like her. He can't really hide the fact that she's special to him even if he is denying it.]
