Interview RP: Relgia, the Kano Pirate

Cast: Saarva (Mappy) & Relgia (EyePierce)


[9:19 PM] Mappy | Best Dog: Interview RP: Relgia - @EyePierce Saarva, with not much to do, simply waits for the next applicant to arrive. He might have dozed off for a bit, but he woke himself up before he went into too deep a sleep. Waiting might be boring, but it couldn't possibly be that boring. Yaaaaaawn "Hopefully they arrive soon," the dragon murmured.
[9:21 PM] EyePierce: Relgia paused at the door of the office, setting a backhand on the doorframe as she scanned the room and let out a breath of relief as it seemed to like up with what a fancy official office should look like. It wasn't the kitchen at any rate. Straightening out her back while simultaneously puffing out her chest, she strode in the room, all confidence. "I'm here for the instigat- er... the investigation. About the pirates and the money tree! You're in charge of all of that, yeah?"
[9:26 PM] Mappy | Best Dog: He looked up, visibly somewhat tired, and that carried over to his voice somewhat, "...Oh! Yes, that would be me. I presume you're Relgia then?" asked the dragon. He straightened some papers on the table before adding, "If so, come take a seat across from me and we'll get this interview started."
[9:30 PM] EyePierce: "Eh... yeah, alright." Deflating a bit at the weary tone in the man's voice, Relgia sat down in the proffered chair, folding her backarms together in front of her to be able to sit comfortably in the high-backed chair.
[9:40 PM] Mappy | Best Dog: ...One wouldn't exactly call it a 'high-backed chair.' It was more like a simple wooden crate. But that doesn't really matter. This is my way of saying I should have specified. "So, miss Relgia, what are some abilities or talents that you bring to the table. That is so to say, what makes you stand apart from other applicants, and what skills do you have that would prompt us to select you for our investigation?" He readied his pen.
[9:47 PM] EyePierce: "Well, I'm a fantastic sailor." Relgia waved a hand as if that was beyond the obvious. "I also swing an axe like nobodies business and once we find the scuttled rantallions you'll be wanting them caught or killed, right? I'll be able to pull that off for ya." She gave a toothy smile as she talked about herself, the pride in her skills very much evident.
[9:52 PM] Mappy | Best Dog: "Anything other than your combat abilities and the obvious sailing?" Saarva continued the question, hoping to perhaps get a little bit more out of the answer. In the meantime, however, he wrote down a few things. Boating :white_check_mark: Combat abilities :white_check_mark:
[9:58 PM] EyePierce: The smile dropped, and Relgia's face blanked for a moment. W-wasn't that enough? She cleared her throat uncomfortably for a moment and shifted on the box beneath her. "Well, I can, er... use the stars to navigate? I've been in a lot of the ports around the outer sea. I've got great hand-eye coordination!" She practically stood up as she made the last statement, waving all four of her arms a bit to emphasize the point.
[10:01 PM] Mappy | Best Dog: "So a bit of an explorer and survivalist, then? Interesting," he continued his notes: Oddly specific skills :white_check_mark: Survivalism :white_check_mark: "Here is another question for you. As a Kano, you would think you'd be somewhat afraid of boating. What sparked your interest in being a pirate instead of say, a warrior or chef?"
[10:06 PM] EyePierce: The look in Relgia's eyes shifted, the almost panicked fidgeting gone as she leapt up from her seat and flexed her arms angrily at Saarva. "Hey, I don't have nothin' to do with pirates, alright!? I'm an honest deck-hand, you can ask my Captain. Captain Avaline, of the Molten Larke. We're a straight merchant vessel, through-and-through. Ain't done nothin' hurtful or illegal to anybody that didn't try it on us first!" She paused for a second, to process her statement. "Didn't do nothin' illegal to 'em then neither. Just sunk the hog grubbers."
[10:09 PM] Mappy | Best Dog: Saarva was caught somewhat off guard by the sudden outburst, "Ohhhhhkay then. You alright?" She went from 0 to 70 real fast. Passion :white_check_mark: Temper :negative_squared_cross_mark: "Let me rephrase the question. As a Kano, what made you so interested in sailing the seas?"
[10:17 PM] EyePierce: "Err..." And just like that, the wind was out of her sails. Of course the man wasn't trying to accuse her of anything. Relgia sat back down, both sets of arms retreating behind her back as she blushed a bit in shame. "Ah, well, sorry for the outburst. 'S a touchy subject." Pausing to wipe a hand through her hair, she tried to refocus. "I guess, back to your question, I just had a flame for the water growing up. It's cool, sparkles in the sun, and it goes just about anywhere you want it to. Sure, it's dangerous and aye, it kills people left and right if they don't take heed which way the wind blows, but that's just about true of every profession, yeah? Food can poison ya, men'll use your own weapons against you to avoid paying, and even you probably got parts of your job that're dangerous, yeah? So... I just chose what I wanted. If I'm happy what's it matter, right?"
[10:19 PM] Mappy | Best Dog: "Of course you can do what you want to; its just a rather unorthodox career path for one of your kind," he dipped the pen in the ink, then recorded the response. "Just one more question: Why have you signed up for this investigation? The money? The chance to explore? The ability to deliver justice or revenge?"
[10:25 PM] EyePierce: "...Justice I suppose? I don't like the idea of people trying to steal people's hard earned leafs. Even worse when they're attached to the bloomin' tree, right?" She thrust a hand foward angrily to emphasize her point. "Sure, the chance of some adventure'll be fun, and of course I like to get paid for my work. But I sorta just wanna find the Growlers and shake 'em around a bit. Make 'em feel sorry for what they done. Er, tried to do."
[10:28 PM] Mappy | Best Dog: "Of course - we can't just have these criminals get away with what they've done." Passion :white_check_mark: :white_check_mark: Saarva finished scribbling down some notes, then stood up and put out his hand for a handshake, "Those are all the questions I have for you today. Thank you for taking the time to answer them. We'll let you know if you've been selected in a few days, assuming you remain in Pachima where we can find you."
[10:35 PM] EyePierce: "Right. Thanks for listening to me. We'll show the dastards what for." Relgia rose from her exalted box apparently certain of her qualifications and made her way to the doorframe, though she cast one more glance behind her before she left. Out of sight of the dragon she shoved a palm into her face and had a back-arm playfully hit the back of her head. What in the blazes was that! Why'd you blow up you daft woman! Letting out a puff of hot air, she started walking at a brisker pace to reach the exit. She wanted to vent, wasn't going to harm her chances even more by doing it indoors. This was stupid. The whole idea was stupid. Why'd she even leave her ship.(edited)
[10:36 PM] Mappy | Best Dog: "Take a candy on the way out, if you'd like," he added as the Kano woman walked off.
[10:37 PM] EyePierce: Still stuck in her own world, she didn't even hear the man as she stormed off.
[10:40 PM] Mappy | Best Dog: ===End RP===
