no more fairytales. @facadist-blog - Tumblr Blog

Finding a friendly face becomes a quick priority, but he hadn’t expected it to go so well so fast. Extroverted body language and a vocal pitch he quickly, easily commits to memory for a larger alibi…. perfect.

He slides up next to the shorter man, hands in his pockets to keep warm (to keep that jaunty attitude). And then:

“Heya! Whatcha doin?” It’s his usual voice. English, very fake sounding American accent. Friendly! Right?

Finn’s always been used to the biting winter cold, so it’s not uncommon for him to take up a seat with a nice hot lunch near the center of the village. It serves a purpose for people-watching, and also filling his usually-empty stomach. It’s a win-win, and usually even more of a win when someone approaches him.

But this time it’s sudden and unexpected, just as he’s taken a too-big-to-chew bite out of his sandwich.

“Eadimg,” he says, his cheeks puffed full of food like some weird hamster. He doesn’t even swallow before he keeps talking. “Y need smmf?”

29. 37. 49. :-0

29. What is your character’s weaknesses? Hubris? Pride? Controlling?

He’s an idiot. Not that he’s not smart, he just tends not to think things through. He just acts like a dumbass.

37. How is your character’s imagination? Daydreaming a lot? Worried most of the time? Living in memories?

He tends to have really high hopes, and has pretty frequent daydreams of what kind of ideal life he’d be living if he weren’t just so Average.

49. What about voice? Pitch? Strength? Tempo and rhythm of speech? Pronunciation? Accent?

He’s got a quick tongue, a high-pitched voice (some would say that’s a sign of lying, and in his case they’d be right) that bounces as he goes. He’s got a pretty unaffected American accent, though it definitely slips into something a little more northeastern if he’s not paying attention.

#meme day #hello!!!

@alrosary

It was strange, how a festival like this could simultaneously be unlike anything he’d ever experienced and remind him so much of home. Maybe that was because this was really the first signs of livelihood in this sleepy little place, or maybe the simple homeliness of it reminded him of times ling gone by.

But the time for reminiscing and dreaming was short-lived. In the meantime he was curled on a bench in the village’s square indulging as much as he could on his most recent delivery while the enormous bonfire warmed him even from this distance. A swig of wine to wash it all down would have made it perfect, if he had the money to spare to get some. He eyed the crowd, hoping maybe he could get away with slipping a hand into someone’s open purse. When his eyes caught the nervous-looking young man in some religious garb or other, he wondered if it wouldn’t be more convenient to just sneak some wine out of a nearby church instead.

Yeah, that would work nicely.

Finn tailed him closely, with a foolproof plan: any eye contact would be met with innocent, totally inconspicuous whistling. Not suspicious in the slightest.
