Hunting Hunter - Open Starter!

{{ Just for fun because writing horror is actually my preference and who says it has to be confined to a season? Open to anyone who wants to claim it and it can make the jump to the new discord if you like! This can be a prank played on him that goes a little haywire or something more sinister~

⚜️

    As he closes the door to the shop for the final time Hunter lets out a content sigh. It had been a decidedly long work day with not only new shipment coming in but interviews for new hires and also a sudden call from back home intermixed with the regular workload. It was by no means a bad day, just a very long one indeed. He turns the lock to the main door and switches off the glowing ‘COME IN FOR A SPELL’ sign in the window.

   He had sent his workers home already and so its just him that remains and that would be typically fine by him. Tonight though, something shifts. It happens almost the second that he flips the switch for the main lights and the room goes to the warmer golden lights of the glass cases that hold the jewelry, special crystals and scrying tools for purchase. The energy in the space goes from pleasant ambiance to chillingly haunting. The skin of his arms lifts with goosebumps and Hunter takes a cautionary look around the main area of the store. A spirit? Bad lingering energy from that weirdo customer earlier?

  For a few moments he just waits it out and when it seems like nothing is going to happen is when he hears it. The sound of something scratching. He can’t quite pinpoint where it’s coming from but he hears it clear as day before it stops.

   “I’m too old for this shit, please, just show yourself.”

“Wait! Wait!”

     Hunter darts behind one of the tall and forgiving trees in the park to hide. Armed with the mightiest of water guns on the market currently, he tries to gather his breath before she can find him once more. They have been at it for hours now, this water gun battle that they started in the late afternoon. It’s now spilling into sunset and Hunter is acutely aware that his soaked through clothes are not going to save him from the chill of night when it starts to really set in. 

    He checks the level of water in his weapon and for a few seconds he feels secure. That is until he realizes that Kaya hadn’t responded. The park has it’s noises; people jogging, talking, playing frisbee and all that. But the sound of her shoes passing over the grass or the excited laugh that she has are gone. He freezes. She’s gone into stealth mode, he realizes. Which can only mean one thing for sure—- that she is near and will strike soon. Alert to everything suddenly Hunter’s shoulders tense up toward his ears and he readies his water gun. In this moment he very much wishes he had listened to Eros’ tales of epic water gun fights that once were more common place on the island.

   “Kaaaayyyyaaaa,” he croons as he listens carefully for any sounds of her. “Where are you?”

    Oh if he could only realize, she’s right above him in the tree.

    The reaction she gives grows more and more concerning as Hunter watches confusion and pain dance across her face. What was happening? She takes the offered seat at the table and he’s grateful for it as he was half sure that if she hadn’t, she might just succumb to whatever was afflicting her. Still, her choice of the nickname that she had taken to calling him made him laugh a bit. Whatever had happened hadn’t wiped the humor from her!

  “Yeah,” he laughs. “It’s me. Hunter. You alright there little lady?”

   Hunter lowers down to kneel beside her and give her a look. Something almost brotherly is in the way that he peers at her to check that she hadn’t concussed herself somehow before entering the shop. He brings up a hand and points a finger ceiling ward. “Can you follow my finger and tell me what day it is?”

    He thinks it’s not so much that she hurt herself but something connected to the things she was just rapid-fire telling him that must have tripped some internal wire in her. This thought though, he’ll keep to himself for a few more minutes until he’s sure that she’s not in need of immediate medical attention. “Are you hurting anywhere?”

[mpxesther]

Esther's head tilted, still in thought as she sat down on the chair. By now, she was quite aware that she had used her powers. Even if she had no clue what had happened for the past few hours, she knew that she had unveiled something to him that changed his future. Was it urgent? All she could assume was that it was, and so, though she hated that she had used her powers, she felt comfortable in knowing that she had at least been of some use.

Hunter. She nodded her head, reminding herself of the name. And, she didn't immediately answer. Instead, she took the second to follow his finger as he had requested and finally, she answered with the date. Pausing for a second, she followed up. "I am really fine. A bit of a headache.. But that happens when I use my powers."

Taking a deep breath, the demigoddess picked at the cloth on her fingertips, a safe barrier. "I am a daughter of Skuld, so since you touched my skin, I saw the future. But, since my words have caused something to change.. Well..." She paused for a second, chewing lightly on her lower lip. "I think I only lost the last two or three hours of my memory. So, nothing really!"

[hunterxmp]

   His eyes watch hers follow the track of his finger and judge that they are stable even if a little wider than before. He assumes it’s the surprise of what’s happened to her and for now that is a much more reassuring thing that worrying that she might have a concussion. She gives the right date as well and it eases his mind a bit further. Still, he stays close to be sure for just a little moment longer.

   It’s just as well because she tells him a little bit more of what he is curious about. The rush of her powers flowing between them had caused it then- he supposes that all makes sense in a place like this. Hunter inwardly wonders just the vast ways that others deal with their powers if some were purely contact based. How as hugging possible between such people? did things work the same way that his magic did?

  “Well,” he says after she speaks. “I’m glad you don’t seem to have clicked your head on anything in here or out there before you got to the table. The headache we can get to fixin’ if you don’t mind some tea for your system.”

   He stands then and moves to the area to mix something for her. “So you got the gift of Seeing huh? I have only met one other person in my life with that gift before moving to this place. Does it make things harder to know ahead of time?”

  The conversation is meant to be light but he realizes that it might be a little harder to keep it that way if he is to clarify things. And that his question might come across as …a little heavy.

In Regular Time - W.C 002 | Self Para

{{ Some self care for Hunter! For the monthly writing challenge of April about self care. I had two versions of the types of self care he uses but found that a simple nap is honestly sometimes the best thing. }}

⚜️

    Finally! Hunter rings up the last of the customers of the shop for the day and gently ushers them out before he locks the door behind them. It’s right in time with the clock that hangs on the wall behind the registers and the watch he wears around his wrist that both chime that it’s closing time! Work had been good today and the staff that he hired to take over for the ones that he either fired or wished well as they embarked on something new were fast learners. He is grateful that it went smoothly, but even more grateful for the fact that it was over.

   He’s got a precious bit of time now that is just his alone. No customers, no calls, no friends, no one to tend to that isn’t just himself. The sacred chunk of time alone is something that he doesn’t waste a single second of!

   He makes quick work of locking away the expensive jewelry and finer crystals the shop possesses in the new safe, closes out the register and sets the bank deposit funds and slip up for when he leaves. All is ready for when he’s ready but first—

   Some self care.

   Hunter makes his way to the back of the store where his office is just beyond the break room. There he takes a seat at his desk and leans back in the chair before slumping down more into it. “What a day.”

  it’s said to no one as he is alone but the lack of reply is a welcome peace right now. Hunter smiles at the quiet and then stretches his arms overhead waiting for and receiving the most satisfying series of pops down along his spine. Happy and relaxed now he lowers his arms again and sets a timer on his wrist watch again. This time it’s for fifteen minutes from now It beeps softly before the countdown begins on it’s digital face. Then with no fuss he closes his eyes and turns a little to the side in the chair to catch a brief but needed nap.

   Sometimes self care is just an undisturbed nap!

[hunterxmp]

⚜️

    He pulls his hand away and magic sizzles between them; for her some strange haze that lives in her eyes and for him, the sense that something touching his mind sends alarms inside him. Confused Hunter stares openly at her before averting his gaze down to his hand. The sigil he had drawn there that morning- his protection spell on himself- glows lightly to his sight.

        DANGER.

   Her? Hunter says nothing and he doesn’t have to because that’s when she begins spilling something. At first he doesn’t understand but as she talks he kicks into action and moves to the main table in the center of the shop. There on the table are items that are meant for small circles, readings and scrying. Also on the table is a small notepad and a cup of pens. He plucks up a pen and writes as fast as he can the things that she’s said to him. If she is the means of a message to warn him then he must take heed of it.

   “I don’t think…” Hunter pauses thinking on what she's told him, oblivious to the cost of her honesty just yet. “I don’t think I’m the one in danger. I think I might know whoever it is though. Did you see what type of gun it—“

    Hunter’s eyes look to her again and his words slow to nothing. She is holding her head and looks just a little paler than she did only a moment ago. “Hey whoa. You okay?”

    He doesn’t touch her but does hold out his hands in case she needs to use him to balance out. He moves quickly, pulling out a chair at the table for her before he moves to be just beside her in case she loses her footing or gets too dizzy from the pain in her head now. “Need to sit down darlin’? I got you.”

[mpxesther]

The headaches that came with her memory loss were intense, yet they were short-lived for a small change of fate. If it had been something more, she could have been out for longer, having been hospitalized once for them. She was lucky today. However, though her memory of the last hour was lost, she also had no idea any of the movements or words that came from the demigod. So captured by her pain, she was lost to the world. That pain seemed reflected in her visage. It was not something that she could.

When she came too, she was rather lost to were she was. Confusion appeared over her features, looking around at the shop. At the stopping point of her memories, she had been at her home, about to come to the shop. Esther had a suspicion that she had used her powers, but she still had no clue about anything else.

Hunter's voice grabbed her attention. Yet, she did not react with the same excitement she did. "Dumptruck guy? Is that you? From our messaging?" Esther asked as if she had never talked to him as she did seconds ago. Looking between him and the table, she did not know what to do, but she walked to the seat, sitting down. Pausing, her hands placed on her lap. Something about her memory loss was so disorienting to her. But, it was not in a physical sense, as her mind struggled to catch up with the lapse of memory.

    The reaction she gives grows more and more concerning as Hunter watches confusion and pain dance across her face. What was happening? She takes the offered seat at the table and he’s grateful for it as he was half sure that if she hadn’t, she might just succumb to whatever was afflicting her.

[mpxkaya]

Festive days were always something strange to experience, at least when she wasn't taking part in them. Half of her childhood was spent in hiding and the other half was a bit harder to explain, so there was no room for Christmas or sentimentalism. It never bothered her, though, not even when Hunter asked her about it; she just never had the chance to celebrate it, and she had made her peace with it.

Kaya preferred giving gifts rather than receiving them, so she helped Hunter with his happily and gave no second thought to it, which is why his call so early in the morning had taken her by surprise. She'd been pulled from a gentle sleep by his voice and if he hadn't kept talking, she might've thought she was dreaming still.

"Yeah, gimme a minute. I'm coming." Him calling her 'baby' had her all shades of flustered and her drowsiness didn't help at all. "I'll see you in a bit, love." And with that she hung up and rushed to the bathroom to wash her face and brush her teeth. He'd seen her after waking up before, so the loose braid and oversized hoodie —which happened to be his— were an 'okay' outfit for him to see her in at that ungodly hour.

"Coming!"

She finished in record time and opened the door after pushing some stray hairs away from her face. The sight that greeted her had her staring for a second, and less than a breath later she was grinning at the man in front of her. "Well, I can see why everyone's so excited for Santa now." Hunter looked adorable, with the costume and that smile Kaya could only describe as his that sent her to the moon and back. "Come on in, wonder boy, before someone steals christmas."

[hunterxmp]

⚜️

    She opens the door and Hunter watches the sleepy expression she wears shift to one of surprise as she takes in his outfit. Head to toe he’s made himself into the image of Santa for the meeting with her. Grinning from ear to ear he slips back into character.

   “It’s nothin’ but normal to be excited when you’ve made it onto the Nice List to see me,” he says in a mock deeper voice than his own. He hoists a bag of gifts better on his shoulder and tilts his chin up proudly. What a silly man! “Now if you will let me in so I can do what I do best, I’d be much obligated Miss Kaya.”

  And yes, she gives him the room to do so but Hunter’s eyes are on her outfit just as hers were on his. He takes in her messy hair, clean face and her legs that peek from under the security of his hoodie. Damn, a weakness has been found! Dumbly, Hunter remains looking at her for a moment, before his cheeks redden and his eyes go once again to her legs.

   “Suuugar,” he says absently. Then he clears his throat and seems to snap out of it for the moment, “I got gifts.” That much is radiantly clear but heaven help him because for just a moment he really did short circuit a bit! Regaining his composure and his character he steps inside the house and beelines for the couch. That is where he will create a pile of gifts for her.

⚜️

He haaaaaaaaates expressions like that. It sits right up there with ‘don’t get smart with me’ and ‘bless your heart’ which, in his not so humble opinion, are the dumbest of all Southern phrases. Hunter wasn’t trying to ‘be cute’ when he said that he didn’t think he knew how to do something after she asked him- he was being factual.

There was an awareness of his strengths and abilities on his part, but there was also a calm acceptance of things he didn’t know or didn’t know how to do within him as well. So when he politely declines, it’s normally because he’d rather learn first. Slightly exasperated he rubs a hand over his face and then looks at her flatly after doing so.

“It don’t come off.” He means the ‘cute’, taking it from meaning smug to meaning it’s literal term just to be a pill. “Pardon.”

Point made he says, “I’m not playin’, I don’t know what you meant about that game. You could show me though.”

Hunter doesn’t answer that. Not because he normally would ignore Maxim- he wouldn’t. He rather likes him despite his piss poor attitude around his best friend Invidia because the banter he witnesses slightly amuses him. But he’s already in a bad mood and the splitting headache he has now acquired is worsening it by the second. The bump he took while working on his truck was part of the risk but it still didn’t make it any easier to deal with!

Hunter is stretching when he hears it, pulling his arms back down from over his head to be under the table again. He’s already ordered his food since he’s been here a minute in Honeypot so his menu is already gone or he would slide it across to Carter so he could have a look. “Wish you were here like about ten minutes ago, coulda got your order in with mine.”

He looks to the bar where he knows his friend Kiki is working and waits to catch her eye. When he does after a few seconds he gently signals her over and then goes back to talking with Carter. “What you been up to all day? I was with Kaya earlier and usually she has something to say about ya but all she said was that you were busy. What you got brewing?”

“Nah, you a whole mess and a half,” Hunter says good naturedly. He’s only kidding because he is already ready to head out into the snow. Today is a light shipment day so they’ve finished up what they needed to already in terms of inventory hauling. Now they were free to take a much needed break. Today it’s just him and Alexander so the allotted lunch break will be just a hair longer than usual so they can do the run to get warm drinks and even warmer food while out.

Hunter looks up from the tiny map he’s looking over. It’s terrible and of very little help to him since Invidia’s sense of direction is dismal at best, so he tucks it away when she speaks. He can at least keep the map as a silly thing to tease his friend about later.

“Figure that’s fine as long as I get where I need to,” he says looking to her. “You know the way?”

Hunter effortlessly quotes the favorite movie of his best friend Invidia in answer to Haoyu’s question. “‘Every day, from now until forever!’”

Barbie was full of great quotes. Looking to the other he grins. “It’s not that bad once you get used to me essentially running around like I got ants in my pants and I’m juggling the orbit of the planets. Today was just a little more intense on the count of because… well..”

His arms open to gesture at the absolutely massive shipment that came in of goods for the shop. Direct from America from the oddity shops of San Francisco, to the voodoo shops in the French Quarter of New Orleans, to the old witch stores of Salem— Hunter had ordered from coast to coast the most of the strangest things to outfit his shop. “Today’s adventure is cataloging and arranging all these finds! I even got somethin’ nice for you and old Chucklehead McGee over there if y’all stop belly achin’.”

Hunter gestures to Alexander briefly before he turns back to Hayou. “Let’s get to it!”

“And what that got to with me?”

He’s kidding but the way that Hunter keeps his eyes on what he’s doing would make one think that he was entirely serious and uncaring. After a brief but pregnant pause in which nothing is said he looks up and laughs. “We got food in the work fridge and you got hands that are good and able- go on now. Clock out for break and eat what’s there or go get summthin’.”

Hunter picks up the thermos on the counter next to where he is logging things into the shop laptop near the register. Just before sipping the coffee in it he says, “If you leavin’ though, let me know where you go? Might send you money to bring me back a little treat. Fridge has collard greens, mashed potatoes, cornbread, and some catfish in them containers. Don’t touch the red one though— that’s Invidia’s bone broth soup I gotta bring him later.”

Dark Coquette Ruffles - KayaxHunter

Because now she’s got girlfriend privileges with him. A starter for @mpxkaya

⚜️

Sometime after 4:18a.m, December 25th, 2023

     It’s early.

      Hunter doesn’t even need to open his eyes to know that it is some ungodly hour that he’s woken himself up at. Before falling asleep but just after hanging up with his girlfriend he set several alarms to be sure that he wakes up.

     Kaya said when they hung out days ago with Hunter amid a sea of wrapping paper and colorful bows, that she didn’t really celebrate Christmas. He had asked her lightly about it and learned a bit as to why and reasoned that it didn’t sound entirely like she was against at least being thought of on the day. That’s why when he had sent her off to go home later on the same day she said that he had come up with the little plan that he’s setting in motion now. It’s just before sunrise that he makes his way out of bed to get started.

    Once he’s had a shower and fixed himself up to be presentable he makes his way from the bathroom to dress. Today though, he doesn’t reach for his comfortable clothes. He doesn’t reach for the nicer clothes that he had gotten for dates exclusively. Nah— none of that will do for today. Today he’s got something special to wear.

    He pulls on thick red pants with soft white faux fur at the cuffed edges, shiny black boots, a thermal black under shirt over which he pulls on a thick red coat. It’s got shiny black buttons under the matching white fur that trims the edges of it as he fastens it closed tight to his body. He tops the look off with a red Santa hat, it’s proud white ball at the end pristine for the occasion! Giving himself a look in the mirror of his room he fires finger guns at himself, “Lookin’ mighty fine!”

   Set on his clothing Hunter salutes himself before making his way with his phone in hand toward the front door of his place. Just before he would head out of it he reaches down and grabs a giant red sack that seems full of things if the odd shape of it is anything to go off of. Bag in his grasp he’s ready as he pulls his keys from the ring by the door and heads out!

   It’s a short ride to where Kaya is but he’s smiling the whole way as he goes. Once he’s parked and made his way to her door he doesn’t knock lest he wake anyone else. What he does do is call her as he stands outside the door of her place. Her sleepy voice greets him confused on the line and he smiles.

   “Can you come open the door for me baby? I need to see ya right away. Yeah— I know it’s early but it couldn’t wait.”
