Why'd You Kill the Merchant?!

Who: ALL O' Y'ALL
Broadcast: If you want
Action: FRICK YEAH PARTY AT THE JUNKYARD...I mean, Waystation. Junkstation.
When: 10/07 - Event End

It looks more like a junk heap than a waystation, but luckily there aren't any math fetishists to add you to the pile (hopefully). Talk to the scavengers and heed their warnings...if you want. Or perhaps you'll approach a shady individual for purchasing or selling stuff.

"Welcome, stranger!"

Ah. That explains why you would attack him in a dark corner.

[She smiles coyly, pressing the blade a little closer to the skin in warning.]

Tell me. Why would he think you are a slave trader? You have one chance to answer me with the truth.

[She drew the blade back to a more relaxed state against the man's skin, no longer biting into the angry red line it left behind.]
wolfuncaged: (So come to me my love)

People are less likely to intervene here.

[People get WEIRD about murder here, gosh. The man whimpers, shaking his head.]

It was only a couple times! Wasn't nothin really!

[personal profile] nugqueen 2016-10-21 11:18 pm (UTC)(link)
Really? There aren't any more, then?

[Leliana didn't believe that for a second. She twists the knife, pointing the tip of the blade into where his chin and throat met. His Adam's apple grazed the blade when he swallowed.]

Where are they being kept?
wolfuncaged: (Don't commit to anything at all)

[personal profile] wolfuncaged 2016-10-21 11:41 pm (UTC)(link)
[Fenris watched, the lyrium in his skin flickered to life, once or twice, but that was the only sign of his unease. He let Leliana talk. As she had said, his interrogation skills are pretty terrible. ]

I don't got any now!!! I SWEAR.

[Fenris exhales, eyes narrowing. ]

He was on the search for some when I found him. I overheard him speaking to one of his people.

[personal profile] nugqueen 2016-10-21 11:58 pm (UTC)(link)
Where are they now? His people. Did he tell you?

[The lyrium was hot beneath her touch, almost enough to make her want to draw away from it. It didn't frighten her but she had no idea how long his control would last.]
wolfuncaged: (So long sentiment)

[personal profile] wolfuncaged 2016-10-22 12:31 am (UTC)(link)
No, they scattered. I went after the one that was looking to kidnap someone now. He was the priority.

[He looks at the man as if he's nothing but an insect to be crushed. Vermin. ]

I wanted to eliminate him before he did it to anyone else.

[Her hold on him tightens momentarily. She remembers all too well what that might be like, being held against her will and tortured only to watch a friend die. The two weren't exactly the same but she still felt angry for it.]

Do you have any last words?

[Her gaze was sharper than any blade, her blue eyes like cold steel as she looks at the trader.]
wolfuncaged: (For I have made her prison be)

[personal profile] wolfuncaged 2016-10-26 09:51 pm (UTC)(link)
[Fenris watched impassively. Inwardly, Liliana earned herself some Fenris Greatly Approves somewhere, but he doesn't voice it. The man struggled, panicked. ]

No! Please, don't! It won't happen again, I swears!
nugqueen: (13)

[personal profile] nugqueen 2016-10-26 10:21 pm (UTC)(link)
[Carefully she takes a step back, a silent acceptance that Fenris could do what he wished.]

It should not have happened from the first.
wolfuncaged: (Did the last thread come undone?)

[personal profile] wolfuncaged 2016-10-26 10:57 pm (UTC)(link)
[Fenris gives a nod of his head to Leliana, before turning on the man. His babbled cries are cut off quickly with a flare of lyrium. Fenris' hand plunges into his chest and within seconds the job is done. He lets the body drop, the man's heart falling onto his chest with a wet plop. ]

This whole star system is a blighted mess.
nugqueen: (9)

[personal profile] nugqueen 2016-10-27 12:26 am (UTC)(link)
Yes, but perhaps with more searching we will become closer to solving this problem.

[She spares a moment's glance to the man who lay dead at their feet, his heart removed from his chest and leaving behind a gaping hole. of exposed bone and flesh. She would be sure to find a way to dispose of the body before the day was out.]

wolfuncaged: (No shelter for this child in mazes lost)

[personal profile] wolfuncaged 2016-10-27 10:13 pm (UTC)(link)
[That's considerate of her, Fenris has no plans to do anything. It can rot.

...This is probably why slavers can always find him, honestly.
]

I think I lack the finesse for such a thing.
nugqueen: (Default)

[personal profile] nugqueen 2016-10-28 02:49 am (UTC)(link)
[She gives him a considering look and then shakes her head a bit. Sorry, Fenris she aggress you definitely do lack any kind of finesse, let alone for searching.]

Leave it to me then. I will speak to the Warden and see what we can find.
wolfuncaged: (This animal I have become)

[personal profile] wolfuncaged 2016-10-28 08:43 pm (UTC)(link)
[When you want someone to find things, trust a rogue to do it before anyone else. Seriously.]

...Thank you. That is good of you.

It isn't just for you, though I admit keeping you out of trouble would be preferable. The last thing we need is having you jailed like Hawke was on the last planet - the other Hawke, I mean. One thing they don't understand - either Hawke - is that just because I work for the Chantry, does not mean I don't support those lesser to me. I don't support having them drawn up and quartered like cattle. Least of all innocent people.

[And she and Fenris might disagree in some things, but surely he could agree that people did not deserve to be taken from their homes, to be made into shells of their former selves.]
wolfuncaged: (It doesn't matter now)

[personal profile] wolfuncaged 2016-10-30 09:17 pm (UTC)(link)
I did not presume it was just for me.

[Fenris never presumes anyone does anything just for him. The world doesn't work that way. Not for him, anyway. Still, this is a good thing to hear from her, and it brings a smile to his face. ]

On that fact, we are both very much in agreement.
