Complete Private ✪ Finweald The Curse That Keeps On Giving

[Lune]

"A creature that has not shared its given name ought be called by what it is, don't you think?"

She smirked, shaking her head. "Fair enough," The woman extended her right hand for Jin to shake. "Lune, The First Accursed." Whether the man took her hand or not, she then joked. "Should be a better name than 'songbird'."

"I don't throw my name freely with people, so don't be a stranger next time we meet." Her eyes caught the glimpse of many adventurers entering the Guild Hall, indicating that it might be the best time for her to continue what the woman initially set to do; find her own documents and reforge forge them. "Anyway, I won't hog any more of your precious time, I still have things to do in the headquarters."

Lune turned at Jin, tapping the side of her own head a few times. "You also already got all the information you want. I'm sure there's more, but let's just savor it slowly. Ah, like what people tend to say..." She pondered, before snapping her fingers.

"... Slow burn?"

[Jin]

The Accursed.

He glanced at her passively for a moment, appraising her expression, the way which she delivered the name without any laughter, and with a smirk on her face. If she even began to understand the irony of choosing such a title to introduce herself to him, she most likely would not have referred to him as "Bloodsworn" in the first place. It was commonplace ignorance, granted- few people knew exactly what his sworn oath entailed, but he found the irony all the same.

"Lune," he repeated the name, committing it to memory. "As much as I prefer Songbird, I know how it feels to be called by a name you dislike."

Anyway, I won't hog any more of your precious time, I still have things to do in the headquarters.

He nodded as he finally began to return to the shadows from whence he'd come, until...

You also already got all the information you want. I'm sure there's more, but let's just savor it slowly. Ah, like what people tend to say...

Jin tilted his head.

...slow burn?

"You needn't romanticize it," he said with a chuckle. She was not the first woman who opted for a tacit and suggestive approach, and likely would not be the last, but he confronted it more directly than he had with Nico, to be certain that this woman would not take the same liberties as the other had. "Should I have business with you, rest assured, you will see me again. With any luck, it will be under similar favorable circumstances."

He offered her a curt nod of the head and drew his hood over his face, only his smile visible as he disappeared into the crowd.
