SILCO  ~  The Eye of Zaun

@misstantabismuses asked: ❛ what are you doing out here by yourself? ❜ The voice came from the top of a wall a few feet to the left. Sapphire eyes peered out of the shadows and as Jinx leaned forwards, her cobalt blue braids swung down beside her legs. She sat there, hunched up a bit like a cat, trying to fit its whole body on the fence post. "You out on patrol?", Jinx asked Sevika again, "Can I come with?"

It had been a quiet night thus far and one Sevika preferred. It kept her from having to clean up many loose ends or causing herself to clean up a self-made mess. With a cigarillo on her lips, she raised a brow hearing the familiar voice. "I'm usually out by myself when walking on patrols and checking in on certain endeavors for Silco." she remarked only to lift an eyebrow as she looked toward Jinx properly. The girl always was like a small cat while Sevika herself was much more like a large panther in her own right. Powerful, stealthy, and lethal when the right time came around.

"I can't stop you from joining me so if you want to, go ahead."

Silco is gonna kneel down and give her a smooch on the forehead

There aren't many ways to make Jinx stay still, but that's definitely one of them. A tiny smile crosses her painted lips as she nuzzles against him like an affectionate cat.

She had been left in the care of the medic again! Not because Jinx had any injuries, but because Silco had a long and drawn-out meeting with the Chem-Barons, which, according to him, she would probably find boring to attend to. Sevika couldn't watch over her either, thank Janna, because she too had to attend that same meeting. Thus that only left Jinx in the capable hands of Elise. The little girl wasn't very happy about this development. She didn't like being left out of Silco's sight for long periods of time, even if those were few and far between. She was always worried that he would eventually just force her to stay at Elise's because he didn't want her. Because currently, she just couldn't contribute anything. Her bombs still more often than not refused to work. "He is going to get rid of you, baby sister. He does not need you anymore. You broken, useless thing…" The whispered words were almost overloaded with the feeling of statics as Jinx looked at Bunny. For a few seconds, its soft, round face was layered with white lines forming an angry scowl and bared teeth. A condescending glare, accusing her of even daring to miss Silco. Silco, the Monster! But then Jinx was a monster too. A monster, no one wants. "Stop looking at me", Jinx whispered and wrapped small hands around Bunny's neck, giving it a harsh squeeze. However, she soon stopped and hugged the plush rabbit again, patting its back as if she wanted to apologise for squeezing so very tightly. Outside the medical den were the noises of the Undercity: The rushing of the Pilt, intercepted by the calls of fishermen and the dipping of nets and river otters into the water, the rhythmical heartbeat of the running machinery in the factories, wheels spinning, hammers stomping, barfing up smog into the air, creating the grey, which penetrated the very air they all breathed. Jinx looked up when Elise came to a halt beside her. The woman always smelled heavily of herbs and bitters and medicine, but also of blood. Though she at least made a point to keep herself clean. Instinctively, Jinx shielded Bunny a touch and asked almost defiantly: "What are you looking at?" Jinx gave a surprised squeal when Elise picked her up and hoisted her on her back. Holding onto Bunny with one arm, she wrapped her other hand closely around the healer's temple. Her legs instinctively locked around Elise's taille. The sudden shift in altitude and height was enough to startle Jinx out of her grim mood. Looking around in surprise and awe, she quickly strengthened her grasp as Elise slowly began to walk. It took Jinx a bit, however, she eventually managed to adjust how she sat, following the rise and fall of Elise's steps with her weight. The gentle swaying made Jinx think she was stirring a boat across a tumultuous ocean. She continued to gaze around, mouth slightly agape and eyes wide, as she took in the ever-shifting surroundings. "Are we going somewhere?"

At the sound of whispered words, Elise looked back at Jinx, both to check who she was talking to and to make sure she wasn't having any issues. Brow furrowing a little, she was about to ask the younger to repeat herself, worried she hadn't heard her due to the bustling street, when she noted the tight grip on the stuffed bunny. The blue-haired girl was a little old to be talking to stuffed animals, but the healer was starting to suspect it wasn't a matter of maturity but rather…something else.

Contemplating for a moment, the defensive comment caught her off-guard. Whatever it was, now wasn't the time to talk about it. So instead, she shook her head, a kind smile spreading across her face as she lifted the younger onto her shoulders. While not as lithe as Jinx or Silco, both people the healer would say bore marks of having been malnourished, the mage was nimble in build. However, she had no problems carrying the younger while walking.

"Just wanted to ensure I didn't lose you in the foot traffic," Elise explained, walking faster now that she didn't have to be mindful of Jinx's shorter legs. Following the winding streets of the Lanes, they soon became steeper as they began walking out of the fissures.

"We are indeed." Turning her head, the mage's pale eyes sought out Jinx's while walking. "I have some books and reports I would like to get a look at in preparation for the sickly months, but unfortunately, your sister city isn't too interested in sharing information with Zaun, so we will have to go topside. And who knows, I was hoping we might also find some books for you while up there." The academy library, after all, had the most extensive collection of scientific literature in either city. A library that was open to anyone. As long as they were from Piltover, of course. "Think of it as our mission for the day while the others are at their meeting."

Turning down a side alley, just as the narrow streets of Zaun began opening up into fresh air only a little further ahead, opening up into the plaza just before the bridge crossing, the mage stopped out of sight from the main road.

"However, we can't exactly get in looking like this, so hold tight for a moment." Like red static on a broken screen, Elise's appearance changed in the blink of an eye; white hair became blond, silver eyes green, and her unnaturally white skin became a more healthy pale pink with a trail of freckles across her cheeks. In the same instance, the colourful embroideries on her cloak faded into white as her clothes turned into an academy uniform.

"Well, that was me." She lifted Jinx from her shoulders and placed the girl back on the ground. "How do I look?" Holding out her arms, she did a little theatrical twirl. Stopping, she waited for the blue-haired girl to take in the change before asking her next question.

"Now it's your turn. How do you want to look? Mind you," For a second, her eyes' green faded into their actual silver. "You will have to stick to your physical form, but I can change how things look."

@misstantabismuses followed {Maybee Silco or Sevika? } -

He sighs, eyes glancing over towards the figure. "You know I'm quite a busy man. So I hope this is worthwhile."

@misstantabismuses from here!

The soft, almost charming and weirdly creamy-sounding voice seemed to come from...below? Looking down, Silco's eyes shimmered in surprise. The cat before him with her fair blue and white colour pattern made him think of Jinx, though his daughter's hair was cobalt blue. However, she equally had a very cat-like personality. Hence why the sweet-looking animal did garner a small smile from the Eye of Zaun.

Silco dropped down on his knees to be more at eye level with the cat. He held out his hand, inviting the feline to familiarise herself with his smell. The fact that she spoke did befuddle him a bit, however, the Eye of Zaun knew better than to let that confusion reach his eyes, save for a rising brow and a confused huff, leaving his nose. Instead, he chose to engage her like she was any other person. She spoke, sure, but she also displayed quite a bit of intelligence.

"Hello, little cutie", Silco spoke, "How did you get here?"

Hearing her remark about him being hurt and gesturing at his face with one of her paws, Silco rose a hand and placed it against his scarring. It may be covered under makeup, but you could still see traces of it.

"It's alright... Yuumi, was it? I am fine. I have medicine for this infection. I am not in pain."

“I... don’t know,” Yuumi dismissed somewhat casually, “Book dropped me off here, went off, all by themself might I add!” She huffs angrily, but her anger is diffused as abruptly as it came, “And I was bored so I was looking for new friends to play with, and then! Bam! Found you!” She explained with a smile-

Then a frown.

She remembered he was hurt.

“You promise you’re okay? And you’re not doing that thing dumb-hero people do and say ‘oh no I’m okay’ and then dramatically fall over ‘cause they’re hurt and just wanted to be strong, right? Because that’s dumb and not as cool as they think it is! It’s- It’s dumb! So you promise you’re not doing that?”

@misstantabismuses asked: ❰❰ LIFT ❱❱ sender carries receiver over their shoulder + reverse (for Sevika from Jinx)

It was not very often Sevika had to lift and carry Jinx but when it happened, it was usually for good reason. The girl was exhausted from the looks of her and the deputy intended to make certain she got somewhere safer to rest with her guard fully down. While not many knew where Jinx's workshop area was, Sevika did. She had been sent there a few times to fetch the young woman for Silco a time or two before. Taking her there, she carried her over a shoulder to keep her augmented arm handy in case of a fight from other people. It worked to get then somewhere safe to lay Jinx down in her makeshift bed. "You're better off here to sleep." she uttered calmly only to pull up some blankets to lay over Jinx as well.

Time For Some Positivity || Accepting !

send 🌲 and i'll recommend a blog with thought-provoking headcanons

@misstantabismuses

Miss T and I go waaaaaaay back. She's one of my oldest RP partners (if not the oldest among the ones I currently have) and we've stuck with each other through moving blogs and hopping fandoms. So, I dare to say that I got to know her and her writing pretty well by now.

Her worldbuilding and character development are some of the best I've ever found. They always branch far and go in-depth. She hardly leaves any stone unturned when it comes to eviscerating canon and making something new and original out of it.

Perhaps her ideas might not always be everyone's cup of tea or you might not agree with them, but that doesn't take away how they are objectively well-thought and thought-provoking.

Even if you're not interested in their muses, I still recommend having a look at a few of her headcanon posts! It's good food for the brain!
