agogelogs | [OPEN] The Glass Spider Had Blue Eyes Almost Like A Human's

I. A BOY AND HIS DOG

The sword Jon carries is long, and its pommel comes high on his torso, so that its flash of white stone is nearly always visible when he's strapped on his sword belt at all. Maybe it didn't stand out before, but it's obvious now: the pommel of the sword is nearly a portrait of the direwolf that stands nearby, even down to the dark red eyes. And that wolf is likely to be the largest you've ever seen.

"How many times have you gone out there so far?" Jon asks. It seems like he's preparing to go, or go again: he wears an armored leather tunic over his other clothes.

II. WILDCARD

[Ghost mostly sleeps and stays in his cargo bay stall, but he can be found in literally any open location during this BASE time. If you want an interaction with him, post your character doing something, and Ghost will pass by and take an interest in them.]

III. CLOSED TO ROOMMATES/VISITORS

No way around it: reach the top of the stairs, and there's a huge white wolf filling the area around the breakfast table. He makes very little noise for an animal of his size: doesn't walk heavily, or bark like a dog, or howl, or growl when anyone comes in. His red eyes are dark as garnets, and he gazes at any interlopers with calm interest.

Jon is in the kitchen, haphazardly dressed, fiddling with what looks at first like a raw steak that spent the night in the cold box. The color isn't really right, though, and on further examination, neither is the texture. He wouldn't feed it to Ghost if the direwolf didn't seem willing to accept it, and if it didn't seem to sate his hunger to an extent… but that willingness probably has to do with there being very little better on offer.

When he hears someone enter the area, Jon calls out, "He's just having his breakfast." A reassurance until he adds, "Don't get in his way."

76 is expecting Mordred, who provides her own challenges when it comes to cohabitation, so when he arrives in his new capsule and finds not only a new roommate, but an animal that presumably belongs to said roommate, he's caught a little off-guard. He doesn't show it, however, beyond the brief moment he lingers in the doorway, bag slung over his shoulder. It's more surveying the situation than anything else--first the wolf, then the man the wolf belongs to, then the food on the table.

He seems to consider for a half-second before he speaks.

"The capsule's half mine. Your pet doesn't get to call the shots."

The truth is that he has no real problem with pets--but this is his residence too, and 76 is not one to tiptoe around an animal, even one that looks like it could very easily maul him. 76 isn't hostile when he says it, and it sounds more like a statement of fact than anything else. He's got no plans to stick a hand between the wolf and its food, but he most certainly will make it clear from the very beginning that he isn't interested in having his room life dictated by what a pet likes or doesn't like.

There's the sound of him pushing his way through the door to his quarters, followed by the sound of a bag hitting the bed.

Once Ghost is at the plate of meat, Jon moves to the stairs and down them, and stands in the hall between the two bedchambers.

"He's not a pet. But aye, the capsule is half yours. It's just that his breakfast is all his."

And he was expecting Henry, though still not sure why there had been any change in rooms at all. Jon doesn't sound any more hostile or defensive than his roommate does: if anything, he sounds weary. It's a pleasure to have Ghost around, but it's also a worry; it's already clear that there are other animals about, animals that Ghost would hunt if he were in the Haunted Forest or the Wolfswood.

"And I wasn't expecting to find him here."

"That's not very encouraging."

Not a pet indicates that there's some lack of control here, and he imagines he's going to be feeling out this relationship

76's door is open, revealing the pile of 'gifts' on his bed--clothes, some equipment, a few bottles of what must be alcohol, and a very large rifle. He goes for the gun first, not out of an intent to be intimidating, but because it's the most important object he's been given, and his first thought is to make sure it hasn't been tampered with.

As such, it takes him a moment to realize that Jon is still standing in the hall.

"He just show up?"

Worrying!

Jon sees the gun, and his brows go up. He moves to step aside from the doorframe, to put a wall between him and the gun, then stops himself. He hasn't heard of people shooting each other on BASE, and he hasn't heard of anyone being a particular danger, and he recognizes his roommate, who has no reason to put a bullet in him.

"He did. Can't say I was sorry to see him, though. I raised him from a pup.

"That your rifle? It doesn't look like the ones at Gallipoli."
