SHYLOCK IROS, AS A RULE, tries NOT to pick artifacts that she actively knows are own by others. CENSOR SHE MAY BE, combative magic is not her specialty. while she can make fire, the burns are less burns, && more bruises. && PHYSICALLY SHE IS WEAK, although it’s possible to supplement her body’s strength and durability with magic, shylock is running on fumes, with very little mana to herself (and a small bit of TASS--solifidied mana--in her bag) and casting won’t be much help here.
SO WHEN SHE BRUSHES SHOULDERS with the man next to her, she instantly mumbles an apology, and her hands quiver. right. the item is in his pocket. she just has to REACH OUT AND TAKE IT--
&& SHE CAN’T. she has to rely on her magic to boost her luck, first... now, hopefully he won’t notice. (IF ONLY SHE KNEW WHAT HE TRULY WAS.)
