Has anyone been experiencing occasional instances of apparitions in this fog that has rolled in everywhere? I've found little evidence that this is a common occurrence, but I remain a new addition to this place.

[Silco had seen fog and plenty of smog. He knew the difference between thugs lurking in the obscurity and the phantoms out of the corner of one's eye. Time to see who was useful.]

( halfway through her braid, she peeks over at her father -- taking in his words and his stern stance. jinx doesn't say it much but she hopes to one day strike such a powerful stand someday. when many see her, they only see a five-two girl with long blue hair whose off her rocker. and while that's true with the capital t, his daughter hope to be just a little more fearful and powerful towards not just the locals, but to the rest of the chosen too. )

They're still a pain in the ass. I just don't want any of 'em here to spoil my fun. And that goes for the Aldrip folks, too. If I want something, I should be able to have it without any trouble.

[For the moment, it seemed that neither of them had any intention of returning back to where they had come from even if the opportunity arose for them. He couldn't return, of course, for obvious reasons, and he would respect if Jinx changed her mind and returned back to their world.

However, until that decision was made, he had every intention of continuing with all the lessons he had doing before his untimely death. Some understood the implications of his continual reliance on Jinx for activities, but others thought he was insane to trust her with any responsibility. He would continue to set her on the path to being his successor, and he would hear no argument otherwise.]

You simply need to make part of the fun overcoming them. [He scoffed slightly.] You need to be challenged, Jinx. It's boring otherwise, and I've seen you bored before.

( she hums quietly while puckering her lips simply because she can, thinking. )

I have been a lil' bored. I miss having dummies chase me down. OH! Like when I robbed the seafood shack sometime back. That was pretty fun.

( and of course, the reason she robbed their goods was to teach a kid how to cook -- in which, it's somewhat for the greater good and out of the kindness of her heart?)

[The Undercity was a massive and busy place, and there was always something to do no matter the time of day or night. No one could ever claim that there was boredom to be found there, and this place was practically drab in comparison. It would be worse trapped inside.

For her. Not him. He busied himself with all manner of scheming and reading.]

It's beneficial that you're testing the hospitality of this place. We will get to the bottom of what the term chosen will mean to the locals.

[He had no doubt that she would act out as she always did. He didn't mind in the least; it was no different here as it was back in Zaun.]
