A Hydro-Arsonist is Wanted || Faye & Aino || Private

Faye Bell

"Wanted... Wanted, Hydro Arsonist? I mean, it is a C Ranked Job, so I guess we are permitted to go on it." Faye told Cherry while taking off her binoculars, motioning her ladybug-companion to go fly toward the guild board to pick up the job paper while holding Flora's Needle. Faye was watching the job board from afar, standing on-top of a table that was a bit of a ways away from it in her perspective. After all, she was only two inches tall, therefore she would not be able to go read the job board casually like a normal human being that was their typical size. As Cherry was flying at a rapid pace toward the board with the needle pointed away from her, she finally reached it and pressed the bottom, causing it to turn totally transparent on the blade. When the blade of the needle and the paper met, the paper shrunk to what would be a normal size of a paper but for Faye; very small. This would allow her to read it in a normal fashion, which would be very useful. This needle was granted to her by the nation in which she lived in, considering she was a traveler and needed to shrink things in order to survive. Therefore, she was able to slice this through almost anything and cause it to shrink to her regular size.

"Faye! I got it!" Cherry exclaimed, as she finally flew back to the table and poofed into her ninja-form while handing her the needle. "Thank you, now let's get to reading." she told her ladybug companion, as she sat down and grabbed the paper from Cherry's black and red hands. The title read "Wanted! Hydro-Arsonist!," and depicted for the description that an extremely dangerous man was spotted inside the sewers in which nobody has come back alive from. "Ah, the sewers. I have had to venture through those once... and it was not a pretty place." Faye told Cherry, as she slowly palmed her head in a means to brush out her hair with her fingers. "I think we should get someone to accompany us in this journey... for one, this person in the sewers is most likely a human, and two... I feel lazy and want to ride in someone's pocket." Faye told her companion as she looked around the guild hall, her eyes striking the first person she had saw: a woman with brown hair. Faye had never met her before, but she looked like a trustworthy individual that would be able to accompany Faye on this job.

After Faye had drifted across the winds of the guild hall, she had finally reached the same area that Aino was located. She controlled the flow of the wind blasting up from the ground in the form of a flower to be at the same level as the woman's face, but leaving a generous distance between them so it would not be awkward. Cherry followed in her ladybug form, flying right above the leaf and sitting on-top of it in a lounging position. "Hello. I am Faye Bell, a newer member of Lamia Scale. Perhaps you can come on this quest with me? One moment." she told the woman, as she drifted onto her shoulder and re-equipped her needle while causing it to turn transparent and slicing through it. This made it shoot back into its normal state, a giant piece of paper sitting above her leaf and upon the woman's shoulder. "Here we go." Faye exclaimed in a serious manor, as she hopped from the paper and grabbed it, causing it to go flying on-top of a table along with the ladybug and the smaller woman. Hopefully the girl would not be too shocked at the details of the job, or especially the size of Faye. However, she did not mind answering questions in regards to her being.

Job Link: ✧

In the Lamia Scale guild, a young woman was sat down on a chair that was neatly placed next to a table, the woman that sat on the chair was known as Aino Koizumi, the one who was known to have frequent panic attacks in the guild. Saying that though, Aino would like to think that she was improving, even if it was on a small scale.

On the table was her pet who she called Bun-bun, and there were quite a few pieces of paper scattered about, while Aino struggled to keep Bun-bun from eating the papers, they were very important to her after all.

“Noooo, Bun-bun! Please don’t eat those! They are very important!” The girl cried out in shock as Bun-bun tried to bring a piece of paper towards him in order to eat. Bun-bun was indeed a mischievous little thing, and Bun-bun loved to eat. The moment Aino pleaded with her pet, Bun-bun gave off a weird noise, indicating that they were sulking. Aino could never really be angry at the cutie, even when they were sulking they were adorable.

“I need these for my plans for my wine place!”

Suddenly, a small woman flew right in front of Aino’s face and the cute, small adorable thing even spoke! It caused Aino to shriek before panicking. Aino’s little surprise and panic also caused her to go to go backwards, which made the female still sat on her chair, but is on the floor at the same time. She could even say that she was defying gravity. It didn’t stop the female from getting back up, adjusting herself and getting the chair back up properly, but even now, her heart was beginning to bang the beat of drums.

“Good day!” The female spoke, trying to be as polite as possible, despite feeling awkward at the same time. “Oh, y-you want me to read this… of-of course.” Aino was really unsure what to do, it took a few minutes to read the job, but at the same time, she was glad she done so. It sounded like Hargeon town needed help, and Aino did gain her magic because she wanted to help others.

“I… I um I don’t mind going on this job with you! However, I must ask… with your size, will you be okay with this??” She tilted her head as she bit her lower lip. She hasn’t met anyone quite tiny before.

Meanwhile, Bun-bun also spotted the tiny woman and decided that they wanted to eat her, jumping up and down to indicate such a thing.

“Oh, Bun-bun looks excited… I wonder why…”

Faye Bell

"I have traveled far and wide across this planet, completing this job will not be an issue of mine. As for my size, I am slightly inhuman. A Koropokkuru, if you will.." she told the woman, as she desired to learn her name. She seemed like a trustworthy and nice individual, so Faye decided that she was able to trust her in going on a fairly simple mission, or so she predicted. "Faye, that rabbit-looking beast is trying to eat us!" Cherry screamed, as she flew higher to not submit to the crushing of teeth that would occur if she got too close to its mouth. The creature looked rather interesting, to say the least. Faye had never seen a being quite like it before, so she assumed that it had magical properties and was from a place she never had the chance to venture to. However, she did not ask, strictly because she thought it may have came off rude. "Hmm.." Faye said aloud, as she dropped from levitating with her leaf into the fluffy pet's fur in order to make sure it would not attempt to harm the smaller individuals. Cherry soon followed, popping into her humanoid form and into the bunny's fur beside Faye.

"As for the job we are going on, attached to the paper in which the details are on is a map of every sewer entrance in Hargeon. On my way to the guild hall most mornings, I have been able to hear action occurring inside of the sewers nearby where my people live. This isn't too far from where we are now actually, so I take it that it can be a quick walk from here. Perhaps I can ride upon this beast or in your pocket?" she asked the woman, as she held onto the bunny's soft fur. "If we go into the entrance next to the guild hall, we may be able to fall right into the action. It shouldn't be hard, but be warned that you may lose sight of me in the process of battle." she told the Lamia Scale guild member she was accompanying, beginning to stroke the pet.

"What is your favorite flower, ma'am?"

Aino wasn’t sure what was going on, in fact, she wasn’t even used to such excitement. She was sure that was because she was going to head into the unknown. Biting her lower lip, she continued to look to Bun-bun, who kept opening and closing their mouth for some strange reason. So Faye was a being known as a koropokkuru?? In Aino’s opinion, she looked extremely cute as one, even if she could hardly see her, she could most certainly tell that there was a few features that even the anxiety inducing girl could see.

Looking over towards Bun-bun and Faye once more, she smiled softly and tilted her head slightly.

“It’s ok, I understand. You seem capable, but if you need help, please, do not hesitate to scream as loud as you can.” She spoke softly as she said so. She wanted to help Faye as much as she can, and she was sure she would be able to, unless she was experiencing panic attacks, which was also very common and usual. Luckily, she had a defence mechanism for when them situations happen, and so that didn’t bother her all that much. She wanted to go out, she wanted to make new friends, this was her moment and she hoped that her heart wouldn’t go too fast for her own good during all this.

“Oh, and I forgot to answer earlier, but you can go on either! Just a warning though… Bun-bun likes to eat everything, it’s quite worrying how, but he does.” She motioned around as she stood up to sort out her dress.

“Whenever you are ready, little lady!” She announced as she looked to her pole at the side and took it. “Also, if you have any questions about me, please, feel free to ask them.”
