★ Prompts

1) Arrival
[Before you knew it, the world you were in had gone dark. Why or even how wasn't exactly clear, but the moment you wake up, you find that you are not where you were before. Instead there appears to be a small village, but it's dark and the people appear to not be leaving there houses anytime soon. Why weren't they? Perhaps looking around might wield results.]

2) Monster Attack
[Just outside the village creatures appear to be wondering around. If you come too close they will attack. Sharp claws swinging towards whoever crosses there path. Avoid or counter?]

3) What the hell?!
[In the woods, if one were to wonder further enough they would come across a circle and a bunch of cloak people, kneeling down and bowing down toward the center. Whatever was going on it was certainly odd.]

4) Wildcard

[ Seeing his hurt brought a sense of sadness to her, too. She had always been a sympathetic person, but her empathy for David felt different somehow, like she had known him for much longer than she had and she was experiencing the kind of pain a close friend would have for another. Maybe it was that they both had the blood of wolves running through their veins. ]

David?

[ She ventured a step closer, her own eyes echoing her concern. ]

I know we just met and all, but... things usually get done faster with two people, right? [ She paused, a small laugh escaping. ] Or two wolves in this case.

[were_ranger]

[David releases a short breath before turning to look at Ruby. His eyes held a sort of hope and happiness of someone who grew up around light. He is a wolf and he learned what he knew from his pack; his family. His family protected the forest and learned to live as the people around them changed.]

Thanks Ruby. You're right, of course.

[He isn't always that smart.]

They're might be more people who can help too.

[baskets]

Duh I'm right.

[ She smiled playfully but sincerely. She didn't know what a real pack was like, but she had never stopped wanting to know. Maybe he could tell her someday. ]

Did someone else offer?

[were_ranger]

Yeah, one guy. His name is Harry Dresden.

[David runs his hands through his hair again.]

And if he's helping who knows, maybe others want to also.

[baskets]

I'd remember a name like that, so I haven't met him yet. What's he look like?

[ She gave a moment of thought. ]

There's someone from back where I'm from that ended up here too, actually. She's mega smart, so I think she could help too. I know she'd want to, at least. She kind of likes to help everyone.

[were_ranger]

Very tall. [Taller than David.] and lanky.

[Can describing someone as a wizard be a descriptor? Probably not so David just leaves out that piece of information.]

That sounds like a good person to have here.

[baskets]

I'll keep my eyes open.

[ She hated to admit how relieved she was that Belle was there considering how horrible it was, but Ruby was the type that always felt more secure when she had a friend by her side. Over the years she'd had to make her own sort of pack. ]

People tend to underestimate her, though shortly after is when they always go to her begging for ideas. [ She rolled her eyes. ] But you're right. She is good. Way too good to be in this situation.

[ She looked a little regretful then. This probably wasn't the kind of adventure Belle had in mind when she spoke of them. ]

[were_ranger]

[David smiles at Ruby and steps towards her.]

Hey, hey hey hey hey heyheyhey.

[He crouches down to look directly into Ruby's eyes.]

No sad faces. We'll figure out what's going on here and get everyone home. Not one is trapped as long as we keep looking. [He's already made the mistake of saying something to that affect to someone else and it's stayed with him. After that he felt like he disappointed her.]

[baskets]

[ Her gaze lifted to meet his and she couldn't help but be surprised by his gentleness. Her eyebrows were still knotted, but she forced a small smile. ]

You really believe that, huh?

[ She searched his eyes, looking for evidence of the truth she was hoping for. ]

[were_ranger]

[David's eyes are blue looking more like the sky than the ocean. They were clear and above all else Ruby can tell that he's telling her the truth. He's a really awful liar anyway.]

I do and you know what? Even if it's not true we can make it true because I might not be smart enough to do anything but I am certainly dumb enough to try.

[He's good at this inspirational speeches.]

[baskets]

[ Everything that she wanted to find was there: honesty, sincerity, even hope. His eyes made her feel safe somehow.

She looked down momentarily, but when she raised her head again there was a smile as a small laugh escaped. ]

I think I kind of like that idea.

Handwave from here?

[were_ranger]

Good. [That's the only idea he has.]

Let's find that town and head there for now. Maybe we'll find others.
