LAWYER I ► devil's avocado...vate..

[Things are getting heated up in both Olympia and Wyver as the month goes on. Matt's been going back and forth between the two (and getting met with more and more contention), and can be found amongst each respective populace, usually in the middle of debates]

[And by middle of debates, I mean he's trying to mediate them. Rather than take one side or the other, Matt speaks passionately about keeping the peace (getting booed in the process), holding up the truce, and for Wyver and Olympia to trust each other. He's met with a lot of arguing from both sides, usually ganging up on him, and things get a little more heated from the populace's end as he insists that despite each faction's flaws and misgivings, the only way to work through it is together. The crowd's against him, but--- somehow, despite being blind, he notices your presence, a fellow refugee. Whether you're actively part of the belief or just passing by and have no desire to be roped into it, Matt calls out towards you in a loud, clear, voice:]

Excuse me! [Probably, he heard you walking or talking. Either way, he's dragging you into it] What do you think? Do you live here?

LAWYER II ► just like highschool debate;

[In Wyver, it looks like the debates are reaching the point of loud altercations and outright fisticuffs, especially to refugees who favor Olympia or any sort of Olympia defenders. And Matt, like usual, is in the thick of it. This time, though, his attempts to placate are doing nothing but riling up Wyvernians further, and when a passing Olympian and Wyvernian get into actual fist fight, the blind man, idiot that he is, tries to get in the thick of it]

Hold on, there's no need to--

[This doesn't work out so great for him. At once, one of the debaters is shoving aside, ripping away his cane. Matt can't exactly break out the Daredevil skillset in such a densely populated spot, so he's basically forced to take the hit -- he tries again to calm them down, and gets kicked and shoved to the ground for his trouble]

[You've got the bad -- or good, maybe -- luck of passing through around this time, and the pair of dark glasses clatter next to your feet while the cane rolls off to the side of you. And apparently, beating up a blind man was a perfect way to vent their frustrations, as they return to arguing while Matt fumbles on the ground for his things]

I'm so sorry --- [People keep walking by, not really caring that he's struggling on the ground and just stepping around him] Have you seen my glasses?

[You could help, or not.]

DAREDEVIL I ► more like daredumbass;

[In the open world, people are struggling in their own rights. Sure, they may not be facing Olympian or Wyvernian prejudice, in a sense, but they're open to attack in more than one sense and some of them are really struggling. So, a man in black scouts out, guiding the families, fending off attackers -- searching for medical supplies. You can catch him in the act in any of these scenarios and help or hinder him, or maybe you're out here for your own reasons and want nothing to do with this masked weirdo.]

[Regardless, the hostile wildlife chitters and shuffles around in the night, and a pack of Vlix see you and mark you as easy prey. Whether or not you need the help, this douchebag will suddenly flip in, punching one square in the beak then flipping it over to another one. He growls at you in what sounds like a bad Batman impression:]

It isn't safe. Get back to one of the cities.

DAREDEVIL II ► electric boogaloo;

[If you venture to the Edrathe Ruins, mount or no mount, you may notice you're not alone. A masked man in all black is making his way in, no torch, no nothing. How can he see? It's a mystery.]

[He seems to notice your presence just fine, on the other hand, as he holds up a hand to gesture for you to be quiet, as the faint rumbling starts up.]

Do you hear that? It's further away every time it starts.

[How spooky.]

WILDCARD;

[Matt will be around the openlands, Wyver, and Olympia as himself and also as Daredevil, trying to keep the peace and help people! If none of these prompts work for you OR if you want to do a quests, hit me up by PM and I can write you a custom starter!! I love quests]

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

[He can tell she agrees, but he can't force her to stay if she doesn't want to. Still, he's going to make a last attempt to keep her here]

What would you suggest I do, then? Before you go.

[Claire's sigh is audible, even if a normal man were standing that far away, and she lifts her arms in exasperation. Once, she tried to stop a war. Tried to stop the funding, the snowballing, and in the end was even willing to murder one of the main players--but it came anyway. She failed, and the consequences tore her life apart. The wounds have mended, but they're still there, and this is a finger trying to jab its way in.]

If I knew--if anyone knew--there wouldn't be any bloody wars at all, would there?

[It's edging on the side of too telling, but she doesn't care. It's not an outright admission of knowing that there have been countless wars in countless worlds and probably countless numbers of people like herself, like him, that would like to stop them.]

[it is pretty telling, especially from what he knows of her already. He does feel a little guilty, even, for trying to pull her into this -- but her good heart is what makes her so valuable in these kinds of situations]

Well, I think you know more than me, considering how much of an ass of myself I just made.

[At least he admits it... but he's still kind of trying]

I'm a little desperate, as you can see.
