just fishin' [open]
Who: Caster and you
When: September 3rd - 6th
Where: Rivers, lakes and ponds of the Far Shore
What: fishing, troubles, also dogs
[ Do you remember those fishes splashing people and laughing? Caster does, and as he finally finished crafting his weapon - a grand, hand-made fishing rod. Then proceed to get a can of bait and a can of beer for good measure, and there he goes to find the revenge. ]
1. I luv my fishes cuz they are delicious - 3rd to 5th September
[ When he's fishing in the river near his temple, two big white dogs accompany him. One is sleeping and providing a fluffy back-rest to lean on. The other is a bit too hyper, chasing some insects or mice and greeting anyone approaching too close with a happy bark, and a tail wag.
Though he is alone when fishing not near his property but at various ponds, lakes, and rivers found on the Far Shore - did he just trespass at your place? oops!
Incidentally, you might come at him carefully unhooking a koi and... talking to it, apparently ]
Huh, now you're just a normal fish? Who's laughing now?!
[ The fish flops in his grip terrified. It's a pitiful sight, and it's not like he's going to get a reply out of it ]
Eh, you're too small for even get a bite.
[ And surprisingly gently he lets it back to the water. With an abundance of food, any fishing is going to be catch-and-release. ]
That will teach you a lesson! [ Yeah, go, tell those fishes where is their place... yeah ]
2. It's kappastic! - 6th September
[ Several days and several terrified kois later, he's really having a good day. Sitting on a bridge in silence. He just knows it. This will be the day of that epic catch, the majestic fishing experience! It's possibly the most uninteresting hobby under the sun, but if he could spend time on it regularly, he would.
Fresh air, picturesque landscapes of the Heavens, and nice warm weather, what to want more? Suddenly there's bite on the line - just like he expected! - and... the rod gets fully yanked out of his hands. ]
Wooa--!!
[ Certainly, not as expected. There's no way of saving it, the rod disappears far into the water being pulled by a massive catch-- What would be that massive catch turns to be something else. A kappa surfaces and holds the fishing rod for a few tense seconds. It maintains the eye contact with the fisher and slowly, so very slowly... breaks the rod piece by piece. ]
...oh, now it's personal..! [ Caster obviously takes it as an offense. He drops his cape - bracers and generally all unnecessary stuff that might limit his movement and leaps into the lake from the bridge, possibly water splashing an innocent bystander. The kappa is going to pay
That might not be the best idea ]
3. Peace offering - 6th September
[ Later and somewhere else most likely the strangest sight might be seen. Few lake brawls later, both Caster and the kappa seem to no longer be set on killing each other. The bruises and scratches are more visible on Caster, but anyone familiar with kappas - is there anyone like that there? - might notice that his opponent is in similarly poor shape.
The peace offering for the destroyed fishing rod is pretty simple - it's a pack of cigarettes. All is forgiven, they say - or rather, wave - their goodbyes, and Caster sits on a rock to enjoy what is going to be his first smoke in the Far Shore. Only to fail in lighting the cig up with small ansuz rune.
Obviously, it's sogging wet, kappas live underwater. ]
You cheating bastard!! [ He yells in the kappa direction, who is almost in the middle of the lake. Kappa just cackles, shows an obscene gesture and dives underwater. ]
Ugh, think these will work after drying?
4. Obligatory wildcard, [ Have something else in mind? Leave a comment and I'll write you a starter! Also feel free to play with and modify any of the above. ]

STARES AT YOU
[She looks up at him]
Wha--I can't--they're your dogs...!
[And she's never had to name anything--aside from Temeraire, but even he was the one that listed out names for her.]
"I'm innocent" is going to be my catchphrase
Oh, don't forget there are three hounds! Those two furballs you see here, and a third that doesn't move away from the Temple. She's dedicated like that.
[ #expectations ]
...innocent...
[Please don’t look at her like that. She doesn’t know how to name animals.]
I-I'm not lying!
Bosses the other two well.
Re: I-I'm not lying!
[Definitely better for the other two.]
See! You can give nice names.

[ In the meantime, Sleepy stealthily approached and gently bit at the edge of caster's robe, tugging it, to get his attention. ]
What?
no subject
Is he hungry or something..?
no subject
It's his turn to end on the ground with a thud. ]
--what was that supposed to mean!
no subject
Ah!
[Alex tries to make a grab at him, but misses his hands as he falls back down.]
Are you alright? What happened?
[She takes hold of his hands and helps him up this time.]
no subject
Okay, I'm okay. [ Just before he gets up with Alex help, Stupid has to get into his face and give his cheek a quick lick. Then he sits there "smiling" like only dogs can do. Sleepy is more reserved, that's the real culprit ]
That was- what, revenge? [ He dusts himself off casting a suspicious glance at the dogs. ] Ha, there's some cunning in you!
I guess it means it's time to get moving too. They don't like to sit in one spot for too long. [ Not surprising, they're dogs. ] Wanna join us for a walk?
no subject
Sure. Actually, I was going to ask. What are you doing out here?
no subject
[ Or he was just not trying hard enough. Fishing is a good excuse to just sit alone in silence for a longer while. He gathers his things, rod, baits, and few canned drinks, hmm- ]
Want some? [ He offers a choice between two of them, one of them seems to be a lemon soda, and other a beer ]
no subject
[They weren't there when she first moved in. And they were rather strange looking..pretty, but strange to see at that size. Then again, it's not like she saw many fish where she lived.]
Oh thanks--Here, let me help you with that.
[She takes both, just to free his hand, and reaches for whatever else looks like they may fall.]
no subject
Right- only two hands... Thanks
[ That is enough to even the load, and he fixes his grip on everything. ]
It would be cool to catch it, no? But it might be too smart to fall into my traps.
no subject
[She looks back at where he was previously as they walked.]
Do you plan on...eating them?
[Were they edible?]
no subject
[ Plus he is a wary about eating talking fish. What if that would piss off some higher-up of the old gods or something ]
It's just a warm-up. Fishing in the real sea, at the Near Shore - that's where a good catch and good feast is!
[ He needs a new hobby ]
