Just An Average Afternoon-Open

Pam was just having a normal day at the Hart/House of Rock, the occasional customer, just the normal traffic, unlike what she had at the Junk Shop a bit ago. She had just finished helping an old man find a disk for his granddaughter to listen to when a new person wanted to buy something. “Hello there! Welcome to the Hart/House of Rock. I’m Pam, your current- and only- cashier. How can i help you today?” Pam tried to make it as sugary as possible, not really having much experience in being a cashier besides this job and some parts in the Junk Shop.

Leon walked into the Hart House of Rock- he still had yet to check this place out.

To be honest, he knew not the slightest clue about much music of this generation, being from quite literally thousands of years ago, and he had yet to really explore much of it.

He approached the cashier and smirked a bit. “Hello there, Pam. Only cashier, hm? That sounds like a handful if you’re the only one here.” He said, chuckling a bit, his ears twitching a bit. 

“Well, miss Pam. If I am being honest, I have not the slightest clue as to what I’m looking for. I came to look around, but...I was hoping perhaps someone could introduce me to some things. You up for it?” He grinned with a wink, his tail swishing behind him. “Of course, if you are too busy, that is perfectly understandable.” He answered.

Many Thanks || Hart and Leon

“The thing with the law?” Hart asked curiously. What law was this man talking about? He was hoping he wasn’t talking to a criminal.

“Nothing about a law. But you helped me out on the meteor shower tour. I was with a friend and she was getting scare of the big cats and carnivores. So I dropped something in the front seat and asked you to stick with the herbivores.” Hart explained.

“I just wanted to thank you for that. Elli enjoyed it a lot more since there weren’t any bears or tigers. I didn’t know she was scared of them. You know?” Hart replied with a smile.

[foxheartedcleric-blog]

Leon smirked a little. “Yeah, but don’t worry about it. I didn’t do anything too bad this time.” He said in a teasing tone of voice and a flick of his ears.

He raised his eyebrows and nodded. “Oh, right! Yes, I remember that.” He said with a small smile.

He took a sip of his drink. “Of course, it’s not a problem. It’s not so hard to skip around the carnivores, anyway.” He said with a small smile. “It’s not your fault- although I will add that all the animals are very safely contained, I suppose that wasn’t her fear.” He said, smiling a bit,

“Nah, really though. No need to thank me. It’s my job, right?” He said. “Anyways, what brings you here?”

Many Thanks || Hart and Leon

Hart walked through the streets of Leuda, enjoying his day off from both of his stores. Pam was watching Hart of Rock and he closed Hart of Glass for a little while. Why not? It was a lovely day out. The cold was finally here and he could wear a light jacket. He smiled at the thought and decided to head to a cafe. That one he went to with the hot chocolate was fantastic after all.

It didn’t take long for Hart to see a familiar man. One with fox ears… or something? He knew this man from the zoo and ran up to him.

“Excuse me. You work at the zoo on Leuda right? Did the safari rides?” He asked the fox eared man.

Leon sat in the cafe, sipping at some coffee. He didn’t have much to do today except relax; which was exactly what he was going to do. Not that he didn’t enjoy his work, because he absolutely did.

His ears pricked when he heard a voice behind him however, and turned around to see a fairly familiar face. “Oh, hey there.” He said, leaning back in his chair with a smirk on his face.

“Yep, that’s me. Is this about that thing with the law?”  He asked, his ears twitching a bit and his tail swishing before chuckling. “Nah, but what can I do for you this fine day?”

Ghostly Reunion? || Leon & Sharron

@ghostlyoracle

Leon normally didn’t come to Arcadia; although he admitted, he did hold it in quite a point of interest, given it was magic based, and well, Leon had quite a bit of magic himself. What possessed him not to live on Arcadia? Well, it really had been just that; his life has always revolved around magic, and although he certainly used it on a daily basis still, it wasn’t something he really actively thought about. His own power was still applicable, even though it certainly wasn’t nearly as strong on Leuda as on Arcadia.

But he didn’t dislike Arcadia. He simply just hadn’t come often- although when he did, it always proved to be a beautiful island that was enjoyable, and he certainly liked the scenery.

He had just come off at the port not too long ago, so a stroll along the beach was in order. After all, there was no real reason to head to the hotel or inn just yet. Besides, he wasn’t in the least bit tired.

He sighed a little bit as he walked along, looking up at the sky and feeling the cool brisk autumn air flow through his hair and hit his body. It was a lovely night, calming, relaxing...

Until he saw something...no, someone, that made him come to an abrupt halt.

He looked out and saw a woman with pale white hair and skin, standing and looking out at the sea. Surely...that couldn’t be who he thought it was? No, that seemed impossible...so many years had passed. Perhaps it was a ghost? That wasn’t necessarily out of the question. Or was it a hallucination? Either way, his skin pricked. His first instinct was to turn around and walk away. But something told him otherwise.

After waiting a few moments, he walked out towards the white, almost motionless figure. 

“Sharron....?”

Long Owed Date || Maerwen & Leon

@foxheartedcleric

Purchasing a date had been…foolish. She accepted that. The fact that it had taken so long to pay up on this debt as well was embarrassing, and she rather hoped that the man whose time she’d purchased wouldn’t rub it in her face, but…ah, things had changed. They’d gotten busy. She’d made a friend and lost her just as fast, as if she’d never been there at all. That alone was difficult to deal with - how did she always lose everything that she touched?

But she would make it right again today. Or at least take steps toward trying. She needed to close up her debts so she could move forward again.

She’d requested her date to meet her at the docks of Leuda after both of them finished their work for the day, and as she stood on the edge of the deck in her long-sleeved simple floral dress, she considered how she’d set a prettier scene than she’d planned. The sun was just beginning to set, and the coolness of the evening that she welcomed was starting to prick the bare skin of her cheeks. Perhaps she wouldn’t make as big of a mess of this evening as she’d thought she might.

[foxheartedcleric-blog]

Leon was making his way to the Leuda docks for the date that was long overdue; one that had been purchased by a girl at the dating auction. His chuckled a little bit under his breath- a dating auction! It really was one of the silliest things he had ever heard of, but of course, he just had to participate in it. Regardless of its overall ridiculousness, it still had sounded like fun. 

He truly had no idea how this date was going to go, but he wasn’t really worried about it. He knew he would have fun, no matter how things went. 

Upon seeing a green-haired girl among the docks, he knew instinctively that must be her. He had not met this woman before, but there wasn’t anyone else around that looked like they were waiting for someone. 

“Greetings.” He announced from behind her now; his footsteps had been rather silent, but he couldn’t be sure she hadn’t heard him anyways. “You must be Maerwen, hm?” He said with a light smile and a swish of his tail.

New Boss || Leon & Agate

[foxheartedcleric-blog]

Don’t pet him. Don’t pet him.

She repeated in her mind as he spoke to her. Agate took his hand in hers and gave it a firm shake before letting it go, her eyes locked on his ears as they twitched. She knew it! They were real!

“I agree. This place could use more structure, no offense to my new employees. It’s just that I take this very seriously and can already see where the lack of management has taken its toll.”

“They are to me, too! My whole life has revolved around them, honestly, my whole life! Though-”

She paused momentarily, looking him over once more.

“I could imagine they still might mean more to you than me.”

He couldn’t help but smile. “I agree. Lack of management, well...lets just say we small-time employees can’t take care of everything.” He said with a small nod.  “Yeah, no kidding though. This place needs a tune-up.” He laughed a bit. 

He laughed a bit. “Yeah?” He muttered before she said her next statement and then paused for a moment and stared at her before laughing. “Well. You might say that, but...” He said before twitching his ears again and swishing his tail to obviously show her that it wasn’t fake. 

“I think we all could have a connection to animals. But even if mine is different from yours...it doesn’t make yours any less significant.” He answered, his ears perking up a bit. “I think animals all have something to tell us.” He said earnestly, a genuine smile on his face.

She paused momentarily, looking him over once more.

“I could imagine they still might mean more to you than me.”

Leon nodded with a smile. “Oh, yeah, absolutely. I can safely say that Nadi and I have been doing our best but...” He muttered, then frowning a little bit with a flick of his tail before smiling again. “Regardless to say, we’re glad you’re here. Or at least, I certainly am.” He said with almost a slight bow. 

“Oh? Have they? How so. I mean, sure, it makes sense they mean a lot to you with owning a zoo and all, but...it would be interesting to hear the stories behind that.” He said with a slight smirk, and then his eyes widened a little bit at that comment before lowering. 

“Yes, you could say that. But...just because animals have an extremely high impact on my life doesn’t give me the right to say they mean more or less to me than to you.” He said, smirking a little bit, and swishing his tail tip over to just barely brush her arm. “So let’s just call it even. We’ve both had very different experiences, I imagine.” He said with a smile.

New Boss || Leon & Agate

ʕ•ᴥ•ʔ @foxheartedcleric  ʕ•ᴥ•ʔ

“You must be Leon.”

Agate’s eyes widened. He was towering over her at a height easily over six-feet and although that wasn’t what she was expecting, that wasn’t what had her in awe. No, what caught her by surprise was the fact that he was part fox. She was very keen on animals and the details of their anatomy which is how she knew that this wasn’t some costume.

When she felt herself staring for just a second too long, she pushed her shoulders back, stood up to her full height, and held out a hand for him to shake.

“Name’s Agate. I’m your new boss.”

[foxheartedcleric-blog]

Leon swished his tail as he looked down at the light-haired brunette, a light smirk on his face. Well, she was quite adorable. It was nice to see a new face around the zoo though, and, well, to actually have a boss. 

“That’s me.” He said, his ears twitching a bit, and held out his hand and took hers. “Pleased to meet you, Agate. I gotta say, it’ll be nice to actually have an employer around here.” He said, letting out a sigh and then winked. “Guess that means I can’t just goof around anymore though, huh?” He said and then chuckled. “Just kidding. I’ve always tried my best here. Animals are uh...special to me, you could say?” He grinned, his tail twitching.

Taste vs Tact || Leon & Lily

[foxheartedcleric-blog]

Once he’d finished examining the jewellery, she placed the pieces back in their place, straightening the chain of another anklet before she closed the glass case again. Her fingers nimbly flicked keys to the side until she found the correct one to lock the case back up.

“Did you really?” she asked, raising her eyebrows, impressed. “It always looked far too complicated for me to attempt to learn myself. Perhaps I’ll try to make something someday.” She chuckled. “Although I doubt anything I made would look professional enough to sell in the shop.”

She saw a slight movement from behind him, and she noticed that as well as the strange fox-like ears, he had a tail too. Her curiosity begged her to ask about it, but she bit her tongue. It wasn’t good business to point out any strange traits a customer had.

Leon nodded. “Yes...and it isn’t a simple task, especially the way I used to do it.” He chuckled. “Well, you never know, I’m sure someone as pretty and fashion-forward seeming such as yourself could come up with something quite unique....if not manually, at least conceptually.” He said with a small wink and then blinked, noticing her gaze flick over towards his tail. It was easy to forget that his ears and tail weren’t just...normal. 

“Feel free to ask about it, if you want to.” He said in acknowledgment of her glance, swishing his tail further for emphasis on what he meant. “Don’t worry, I have my shots.” He laughed. Bringing up the topic of his animal parts always was amusing every time. 

[foxheartedcleric-blog]

The Date Auction was coming up, and Leon really didn’t plan on wearing anything much different than he usually wore- though he decided to add a braid to his hair with studded jewelry entwined in it. Ya know, spice things up a little bit. He honestly had no idea what the whole deal with this date auction thing was other than it was for a good cause; he couldn’t help but laugh at the idea. He had to admit, it was kind of ingenious. Ridiculous? A little. Ingenious? Absolutely. 

He honestly had planned to bid on himself, but he decided against it just for the sake of not being too much of a prick just this once.  He couldn’t help but wonder just how this would turn out....

Afternoon Outing || Leon & Pia

[foxheartedcleric-blog]

Pia took a seat at the table she followed him to and took the menu in her hands. She quickly scanned over it skipping over anything with fish as an ingredient. Gross!

“Water, please~”

Ironically, it was her favorite drink, but also very dangerous if spilled. One thing she always has to do when drinking from a cup is wipe off the water droplets with a napkin before touching it. Even the slightest contact with water will cause her to transform and to do so in the middle of a restaurant… Not a good idea! Unfortunately, not everyone wants to see a mermaid suddenly pop up during their lunch hour. Their loss.

“I do have a question, Leon. Do you guys sell squid here? What’s the best squid dish?”

Her questions were immediately followed by a light giggle.

“Make that two questions!”

“Alright then, water...hopefully won’t be too difficult. I hear there’s a shortage.” He said with a smirk and a wink and then nodded. 

“Yes, we do. We sell the Fried Calamari, but personally, I recommend the Grilled Squid. The flavor really soaks into it and tastes better, but that’s just my preference.” He said with a swish of his tail and a light smirk at her correction of herself. 

“Cheeky, hm? Well, should I give you more time or were you going to go with one of the squid dishes? For the Grilled we can marinate it in lemon-butter, teriyaki, or cherry glaze.” He added.

A Little Too Long [OPEN]

[foxheartedcleric-blog]

The last thing she expected was for someone else to be meandering around too. Well, outside of awful night crawlers and skeevy shitheads, but Leuda managed to be pretty safe from that. There were good people and good police who sometimes did their jobs a bit too well in Claire’s book. Nope! No predators or schemers in these parts!

However one could never be too certain, especially when it comes to eccentric guys with actual ears.

Claire leaped with a start at the sight of the male, body posing into some form of…. battle stance? “Woah! Listen up, mister! I know, uh-” what was the word? “Origami!” Sure, that. “So you better not try any furr— I mean—! F-funny business!” Sleep still clung to the corners of her eyes, but they were as wide and alert as ever.

What was this guy even wearing??

Leon raised an eyebrow and then couldn’t help but start laughing. This girl was a riot! He understood is appearance was rather intimidating with as tall as he was and his very different appearance, but her groggy reaction simply couldn’t be ignored. Did she really almost say ‘furry stuff’? 

“Calm down, calm down, I’m not here to mug you. No need to pull the paper cranes out on me yet, honey. I’m just making sure you’re alright. Not too drunk?” He asked, putting a hand on his hip. He had know clue if she was actually drunk or just...extremely tired, but either way, he figured it was better for him to check.

The Mechanical Pipsqueak || Leon & Elena

[foxheartedcleric-blog]

Elena was finally getting off work at the guild. Since Mr. Salesgolem was still under repairs, she actually had to do her job. Which meant wasting her time standing in the front of the guild answering dumb questions. Like, really dumb questions. Who the hell needed to ask if the guild rented boats? Are they blind? Did they not see the boats outside?

However, just as Elena was about to taste sweet freedom and work on her latest breakthrough…she was nearly run over by an odd looking guy. Who immediately said the worst thing that Elena could ever hear.

“Well you’re just taking up too much space! Maybe you should watch where you’re freakin’ going!” Elena snapped back, her short fuse already ignited, “And not right now. Find someone who’s actually on shift.” And someone that wasn’t her. Elena stomped away, eager to get away from this rude guy.

Leon smirked widely, more than a little amused by the short girls temper. “Oh, but I think you’re right. I do take up more space than I was born intending to. And being this tall is a bit of a curse. And these ears and tail only add to that space....Cruel, genetics, aren’t they?” He asked condescendingly, his tail swishing back and forth. 

However, he pointedly followed her. “Oh, but it was just a quick question, I’m sure you know if off of the top of your head. I only wanted to know how much the fare is to Arcadia” He said, suddenly right beside her. This is exactly the person he wanted to be talking to right now.

Animal Ears || Leon & Louisa

[foxheartedcleric-blog]

He was surprisingly chill with the fact a random woman just snapped a picture of him and that just made Louisa immediately relax and smile. She stood up and came towards him, “Yeah the scenery is nice, sketched it enough, but yeah I need to redo the picture. It didn’t turn out as well as I’d hope.”

She pulled the picture up she got on her phone and showed it to him, “I only got the back of you, hair’s obscuring your figure which would make it hard for reference. So like. Are you cool with having pictures taken? You look fucking awesome and I am gonna want to sketch you.”

Honestly this guy looked like some oc she made back in 9th grade and posted to deviantart and that just honestly love everything about him off the bat.

“Oh yeah, should probably introduce myself. I am Maria-Louisa, but call me Louisa.”

Leon smirked. Wow she really didn’t have much shame, did she? He hadn’t expected her to just come out and admit she took a picture of him. Oh well. It’s not like he had shame, either. “Huh, well sure, that’s fine with me. I might just ask for something in return though, if ya don’t mind.” He said with a smirk, his tail swishing back and forth. 

“Name’s Leon. Pleasure to meet you bold miss Louisa.”
