T Denial, Consumption, Poison	❧ Played by AJ
Appearance: T appears as a human woman who would not look out of place at a brothel-slash-sushi shop. She's slender, not very tall, and the opposite of well-endowed but holds herself like a lady who knows what she wants and also what she's willing to give. She has long black hair (often worn up) and always wears red lipstick and eyeshadow. She always keeps her neck covered either by a high collar or a scarf and always wears sleeves -- often her clothing is red. It's pretty rare that she stands straight up, often she will slouch or lean or drape. There is a certain laziness to her gesture, but also a coil of power. Both her wrists and neck are scarred (in the rare event that you might see them) and there is a line of scars shaped like snake scales that goes from behind her right ear down her spine. No matter how much she eats she remains itty bitty in proportion. She can also unhinge her jaw. It's kind of terrifying. Characteristics: Obsessive, excitable, childish, greedy, compulsive, a great big fibber, manipulative, annoying, morbid, mercurial, fanciful Likes: Tragedy, stagnation, obsession, compulsion, extremely bright colors, bitter or sour foods, sestinas, unhealthy relationships, corrupt piousness, polite fiction, Freudian concepts, feasts, conversion Dislikes: Acceptance, actualization, sweets, limericks, monogamy, families where all the members are living, conditioning, education, altruism, true faith, monochrome, starvation, diets
Shrine: A salt lick with pretty pink salt. Ritual: LICK THE SALT LICK.
❧ Will Take	❧ Will Give
tears anger guilt poison (not just "don't eat the plants without getting them blessed" but like the poison sacks some animals have) rotten things (decomposing meat or vegetables) admissions or confessions of secrets that revolve around false identities acts of "corrupting another" (bodily or mentally) lamentations teeth tongues stomachs intestines saliva your sense of taste (for a while) gastric juices vomit	Forks/Knives/Spoons/Plates/utensils for eating basically poisons and their antidotes drinking vinegar temporary "iron stomach" (comes with side effect of overwhelming hunger) almonds mace (the spice) edible underwear clothes made of hemp tables/chairs -- though all of her furniture has either d-rings or restraints or weird grooves perfect for bleeding someone out in, regardless of if you want that or not.
On Memory... T also has the ability to do what she calls "help" with memories. More accurately she can bury a memory, create a false memory or attach a "false feeling" to a memory you have. So, if you want to forget your asshole father? She can do that for you. If you want to bridge the gap between two memories she can fabricate a memory that fills in the gaps, so to speak. Or if you just wanted to have a fun childhood memory even if you didn't have a fun childhood, I guess. And she can make things that you remember as being awful be remembered as AWESOME EXPERIENCES :D :D :D or the other way around. Basically if it's altering or falsifying a remembered person/event/feeling she can help you out there!
"❧ Exchange Rate
Items to Units Worth Offering 1-3 Units Admissions or confessions of secrets that revolve around false identities 2 Units --These are bonuses earned with an action-- Anger or Guilt Tears A lamentation (can also be its own offering) 3 Units Giving up your sense of taste for a while 1 cup of tears 3-5 Units Acts of corrupting another Acts of corrupting yourself Units to Items Cost Reward 1 Unit almonds, mace, drinking vinegar in small portions 2 Units 1 dish set (a small bowl, a large plate & a small plate) 1 cutlery set (a spork, a teaspoon, a butter knife, a fork) 3 Units An item of clothing 1 better cutlery set (cutlery set + steak knife, chopsticks, soup spoon) 4 Units Antidote or poison 5 Units A table Two chairs 6 Units Iron stomach Note: In general for a lot of trades like dishware and forks/knives T will do a strict weight exchange. If your dishes weigh a pound, she wants a pound of intestines. It is almost always an option for items like that. Prices also vary! If you have a good relationship with her it is probably because you inflict or indulge in the emotional side of things (or do more of the 'acts' she accepts) and your general totals may be lower than those good upstanding citizen types.

Re: Day 31, early morning

[ironandwine]

Because you didn't ask nicely.

Re: Day 31, early morning

[all_that_glitters]

I shouldn't have to, ingrate.

Re: Day 31, early morning

[ironandwine]

Welp! I'm not the one in a hurry, now am I?

Re: Day 31, early morning

[all_that_glitters]

[......... o9"

AN IRRITATED NOISE behind his hand, going to l. lick the salt lick. if only the barest touch with the tip of his tongue before he backs away]

Re: Day 31, early morning

[oi_theoi]

[ so did you back into this woman that was suddenly there huh '-' ]

Re: Day 31, early morning

[all_that_glitters]

[I GUESS I DID but is whirring pretty soon, eyes narrowing]

T. I need an antidote.

Re: Day 31, early morning

[ironandwine]

[if he is i'm laughing.]

Re: Day 31, early morning

[oi_theoi]

[ . . . gets very close to Gil's face. ]

Oh! You're much more wicked than I imagined.

Re: Day 31, early morning

[all_that_glitters]

[standing still.]

I didn't come here for idle chatter, god.

Re: Day 31, early morning

[ironandwine]

[i'mma just sit back and watch with amusement, don't mind the vampire.]

Re: Day 31, early morning

[oi_theoi]

[ . . . grin :) ]

Then you must have brought me something to eat.

Re: Day 31, early morning

[all_that_glitters]

If that's what you'll take for a cure, yes.

[handgestures to Rayflo]

Whichever part of him you prefer.

Re: Day 31, early morning

[oi_theoi]

[ eyes flick to Rayflo and then back to Gilgamesh. ]

What makes you think I'm interested in that? I heard you were a great king, is that true?

Re: Day 31, early morning

[all_that_glitters]

You had a list.

[BUT A LITTLE PLEASED LOOK despite himself, at that]

I'm the greatest of all kings.

Re: Day 31, early morning

[oi_theoi]

[ . . . :3c makes a pleased noise ]

Wicked! That's really nice. I like kings. Especially great ones. I would make you do something, you know, to get your cure. An act of corruption . . . [ lets out a breath ] But you might expire before then. Poison can be so sudden, you know? Especially as you leak like that.

What else on my list will you give me?

Re: Day 31, early morning

[all_that_glitters]

[wiping mouth on back of arm again...]

Poison is why I would rather get this done quickly.

[but there is a moment where he considers something, closing his eyes]

... A lamentation. Would an apology count, for that?

Re: Day 31, early morning

[oi_theoi]

[ ticks off on her fingers ]

Lamentation. Guilt. Tears. Think you can do all three?

Oh and I want what's in your mouth.

Re: Day 31, early morning

[all_that_glitters]

[hmm]

I think I can accomplish those.

... What in my mouth?

Re: Day 31, early morning

[oi_theoi]

Nothing you'll miss.

Re: Day 31, early morning

[all_that_glitters]

Are you certain of that?

Re: Day 31, early morning

[oi_theoi]

Of course. I've been so impressed to meet a king, I just want a taste too.

Re: Day 31, early morning

[all_that_glitters]

[... ha]

That's only natural.

Fine, then. I'll accept that trade.

Re: Day 31, early morning

[oi_theoi]

[ I hope you were expecting her to grab you by the face and 'kiss' you and by 'kiss' I mean take a long swig of your bloody poison-y saliva.

Sucking face with the King of Heroes 8D ]

Re: Day 31, early morning

[all_that_glitters]

[... oh i am not entirely sure how to feel about this. i think mostly disgusted

D. DEFINITELY MAKING A FACE, just passively allowing that. to continue as long as she... feels necessary..]

Re: Day 31, early morning

[oi_theoi]

[ I JUST WANT IT ALL, BABY~

but does pull back after a while. Licks her lips~ ]

Mm, wicked delicious. You're on a time limit, don't forget~ A lot of poison gathers itself in a day, you know? Come back when you've succeeded.
