[OPEN] Who put me in your way to find?

Who: Daisy Tonner ([personal profile] hadnoright) & you!
What: Catch-All for Daisy
When: August
Where: The forest, the hot springs, downtown, etc.
Warnings: Violence, animal death/hunting, intrusive thoughts, nudity, others added as needed



1. What right had you not to let me die? [the forest]

Those who travel out into the forest during the day may find themselves running into a short, relatively petite human-looking woman bodily slamming into a deer or boar that's almost as big as she is. The creature hits the ground with surprising force and when the woman rises, it's whilst wiping the blood from her mouth and rolling her shoulders.

Most of the time, she already knows someone's there before they say a word. So, the animal-like energy to her posture melts away like it was never there at all and she turns toward her audience and says something like, "Don't mind me. Working."

Unless, that is, you've managed to actually sneak up on her. It's not an easy thing to do, but when she's in the heat of a Hunt tunnel vision can take its hold and it's in those moments where a sudden noise might make the Hunter's gaze snap towards it like a beast startled. And it's in those moments where Daisy is most distinctly inhuman, the odd yellow eyes and the teeth and the animal way she holds herself.

And it's in those moments that it takes all of Daisy's restraint not to give into the sound of blood pounding in her ears, telling her to attack. With a growl, she shakes her head and takes a step back. "Jesus fucking christ. Don't sneak around!"

2. Ooh but did I even know what I was asking for? [hot springs]

She doesn't get aches and pains like most people in her profession would after a while, but that doesn't mean the hot springs aren't relaxing in their own right. So, occasionally Daisy makes the trip up to the springs, strips down and slips into the water with zero modesty nor shame about the nudity.

There are scars all over her body, many in places that should've killed her if she hadn't already been long on the way to inhumanity by the time she took the damage that caused them. The biggest, a starburst-like scar marring the back of her shoulder, is only visible if you're looking when she sits up.

3. If I had my way, I'd have missed you more [downtown]

There is a large blonde wolf lying in the yard of Daisy and Erin's house. The wolf may appear at first glance to be asleep, but in reality if you look closer she's a little too visibly tuned into her surroundings for that. Still, she is relaxing. Sunbathing, even.

Occasionally, a Mawhile appears from another part of the garden to try and bite her tail. She seems completely unfazed by this.

Cassandra looks startled, then wry. "My apologies. It's a habit of very long standing."

A pause.

"Is there a particular thing you'd like me to say more on?"

"Only that ... I knew many people on the ship found even those circumstances to be preferable to returning to their own worlds. I was aware, vaguely, that you might have reason to be one of them."

A pause, as they walk a little further.

"I still don't remember exactly how things fell out at the end. But when I found myself back in my own world, I worried that that might have been others' fate as well."

Two more paces.

"I will admit, in the interests of forthrightness, that you weren't my greatest concern."

"I have no idea how it happened. Either we did something that shouldn't have been possible, or ..." She shrugs. "Or it was never impossible to begin with, and those who said it was were either lying or mistaken."

"So it would seem."

A pause; then, almost reluctantly --

"I did wonder, sometimes, why the Captain never tried telling people that they could return home if they wished. If they only cooperated."

"If what he wanted was suffering ... well." She shrugs. "It hardly matters now. We're here, and he's not."
