[ when the feed clicks on, there is a somewhat annoyed and tired looking face staring into the void. his hair is a mess and, despite being located in a bed in the communal housing area, he looks like he hasn't been friends with sleep for at least half a decade if those dark circles under his eyes are to be believed. at least he bothers to open his eyes when he addresses the network, voice rough and with a distinct southern drawl.

look, he's tired, alright? it comes out when he's tired.]

So I get that there's a jungle and a whole lotta forest out there along with shit that no one really wanted to delve into detail about but, anyone know if there's a swamp? Maybe a marshy area? Fuck, even a squishy patch of moss an' shit would be nice. Ain't gonna be much use if I can't find one of those.

[ a huff, Sage rolls over on the bed, feed tilting until its looking down on him laying in the bed, mint hair splayed everywhere. ]

Also for those that might know, how the fuck does magic work here? Like-- I get there are 'things' beyond the walls and all but-- what about werewolves? Other witches? How do you cast a fucking circle here? Also, where the fuck do I get the strongest whiskey?

[ oh, did you expect a please and thank you before he hung up? sorry, not gonna happen. ]

I've taken some runs out there and have found some cool places. I can show you if you're up for a hike.

[She hasn't told anyone that she's a wolf but she's debating for this since she'll be able to move a lot easier on four legs instead of two.]/small>

I think there are werewolves and witches here. [Maybe she should tell him that she's a wolf...whatever.] Oh! I know the whiskey question too. It's also my favorite drink and there are a few bars. Do you want standard Red Robins kind of place or like old timey Tavern where you might get mugged.

[ you are officially his new friend. yes. perfect. Sage raises a brow before rolling over in the bed to stare at the screen.]

I am one hundred percent up for a hike, as long as you aren't gonna give me shit for not wearing 'appropriate clothing' or something. [ he doesn't own anything but skinny jeans and combat boots okay. ] And nice to know there there are others around, I mean, witches that is. In a sense. There lone wolves here or packs?

[ because that ... matters? ]

As for whiskey, let's start with Red Robins and then once I know if my magic is up to par, we aim for muggings.

[ a pause. ]

I'm Sage, by the way. You are?

[Freya's smile broke into a light hearty fit of giggles.]

Appropriate clothing? Seriously? I walk out there without shoes and in tank tops. [She also sports a pair of black goth pants with a large collection of pockets to hold all of her trinkets and collections.] So you're a witch? I've only seen lone wolves. Problem with thins like werewolves and witches is that there are different kinds.

So everyone kind of does their own thing.

[Freya doesn't like most peoples definition of werewolves. She thinks being bit and turned into a wolf is silly. A wolf doesn't hunt for sport and it'll kill anyone it bites. Humans are the creatures who hunt for spot.]

I'm Freya.

And the Red Robin like place is called Quarantine Bar and Grill.

Hey, I have had more than one comment about how I'm 'gonna die in the marshes' 'cause of my choice of clothes. [ a snort and a wry grin while he shrugs. ] Then again, that might have more to do with the fact that I was going in without any apparent weapons, but the skinny jeans probably didn't help.

[ or the fact that he is about as big around as some vines, but whatever. ]

Mmm, speciality in swamp magics, though I don't know if that means anything here now. I just ask about wolves because I worked with a lot back home, might be a nice bit of familiarity.

[ worked with, fought with, slept with; it was all the same right? ]

Quarantine Bar and Grill, thanks for that note, Freya.

Skinny jeans works for some people. I think they make my legs look like hams and then I'm perpetually hungry so I can't wear them. [She looks down.] And my butt is too big, my proportions is all wrong for skinny jeans so good on you for rockin' them.

[Freya is more focused on the clothes than the recklessness.]

I haven't heard of magical swamps here or run into one, but if I do I will let you know.

[She pauses.]

We might see wolves or werewolves or whatever you want to call them.

[Maybe she should just tell him.]

[ yup, you're a tolerable human. Sage cracks a laugh at that, amusement clear even in his tired face.] You wear what you want, that's my rule. People are gonna hate on something anyway, so might as well do what you enjoy. Though won't lie, I started wearing them to spite close-minded people where I'm from, now I just find 'em comfy.

[ he will never understand how his magic was more acceptable than his sexuality and style. but whatever. ]

Yeah, that'd be nice. I mean, not actually a magical swamp? Any swamp works, there is-- power there. I dunno how to explain it, but-- yeha, you find a swamp lemme know thanks. And honestly, aside from wendigo's, I'd like to meet other creatures around here. They-- are usually better than humans, honest.

[ seriously, except vampires. fuck them and their weird hierarchy and pureblood shit. ]

There is power in nature. It might be that you just like swamps. [Freya flashes him a grin.] So no need to explain. Unless you want to because I will totally listen. [Unless it happens to be very boring.]

I don't know. I've met some pretty dickish humans but I've met some pretty dickish everyone. I don't think your species hurts or helps your cause.

[She's been around and as far as percentages, there are assholes everywhere. They're just usually more humans so statistics are skewed.]

Nah, wouldn't be a very good explanation because I honestly have no fucking clue about it, my magical schooling is a little lacking in the theory department.

[ his schooling in general is lacking, actually. ]

Mmm, dunno. Never met a nice vampire. Yet, I suppose I should say yet. Maybe just Texan vampires are assholes, and those guys from Lousiana, fuck they were rude.

Might also just be vampires in your world because I meant a nice one once and where I'm from they aren't that common.

[Since biting doesn't create vampires in Freya's world.]

Sounds like you've met a lot of shitty people though.

[ well that is cool. Sage is pretty sure that he just attracted shitty people though. which is why he laughs at her statement, something bitterly amused and a little self-depreciating in his voice when he speaks.]

Yeah well, like calls t'like and all that, right? I think I also have the innate talent of bringing out the worst in people.

[ it's a truth and a warning in a way; he isn't the nicest of beings. ]

I think I'm awesome so you're probably fine.

[It isn't as much as an ego talking, only that Freya is confident and really likes herself.]

[ that is the kind of attitude that Sage needs more of in his life, wow. the witch laughs and looks more than an little amused.]

Well if you think so, I am going to go with what you have to say. It's nicer at least.

I can't promise I'm always nice because I prefer not to lie and you know how the truth can be...

[She waves a hand.]

But I prefer to focus on having fun.
