PICK OUT HER HEART // open, Snowbound visitor

ATBASH CIPHER

i should've said what i hear
i should have let myself fear

Atbash was honestly nervous as she made her way to The Typhoon's border, though it wasn't because of the news she held. No, she knew Caesar still lived here and she still felt like he'd attack her, even if they were allies. Sure, she knew that Caesar had been punished by The Typhoon's leader, but that wasn't enough. Exilement wasn't enough to stop Caesar. Atbash shook her head as she neared the border, forcing herself to get rid of those thoughts. You're safe. She told herself, repeating the thought in her mind, though this still didn't calm her beating heart.

"Hello?" Atbash called out with a frown, scanning the area and noting the damage that happened. Her heart quickened upon noticing how damaged the beach was, and she couldn't help but fear for her brother's safety. Sure, he was an ass and beat her up, but she still cared about him. She couldn't find herself to hate him if she was honest, even though he did attempt to kill her. Stop. She growled at herself mentally. Focus on the task at hand. "My name is Atbash Cipher, I'm, uh... here with news from Snowbound."

Greed had been out on a walk when he spotted her, hanging around on the border. She looked a lot like a certain someone, and he couldn't help smirking, assuming she was some sort of relative. Trotting over, he tipped his head, studying her for a moment before speaking. "Yo, what's up?" he asked in terms of this 'news' she brought. He wasn't sure if a HP needed to be present or not, but either way, he could probably deliver it if need be.

It didn't take a genius to note the similarities between her and Caesar - and Vigenere, for that matter - and Atbash wouldn't deny any relation to him, even though he did just trust and kill her a month ago. She loved her brother dearly, she just wish his mind hadn't gotten so mad with power. Atbash smiled at Greed as he came over, trying to make it seem like she wasn't as nervous as she felt. "Uh, Jacob stepped down from his position as Chief, so I'm leading Snowbound now."

[color=#00688b]"What's Snowbound? Do fish live there? Is it chilly?"

Amazement and wonder laced the words of the child as she teetered up to Greed and Atbash, chocolate visionries wide. Snowbound? Well there just had to be snow there! And with snow, came chilly waters that resembled the ones that she were born in. She sat back and thought for a moment, mind alive with bright memories regarding her mother and her pod navigating the frigid arctic waters of the north. She missed those days, missed her pod, and for a moment, her cheery expression faltered. She quickly forced that wide smile back upon her maw though, resorting to instead peering at the new Snowbound chief. She seemed nice! Maybe they could be friends! [color=#00688b]"Can we be friends? My name is Malana! I love fish! And chilly waters!"

At the sound of a child's voice, Atbash's ears pricked and she looked down at Malana with shining eyes. Oh, she was just too cute! And the pattern of her fur looked amazing. Sure, there were a lot of black-and-white cats, but Malana's coat pattern struck out to Atbash, almost like her own weird coloring and spotted pelt. "Snowbound's another group, just like this one." Atbash explained with a purr, smiling brightly at the kitten. "It's very chilly, and fish live under the ice there." Did Malana know what ice was, considering the tropical weather here? Maybe not, but she'd let the child ask her if she didn't know what ice was. "And of course we can be friends! Maybe you can visit us someday?" The Typhoon were allies, so of course she didn't mind befriending the little odd-looking kit. And even if they weren't, she'd gladly still talk to Malana, so long as she wasn't in an enemy group.

the girl mostly avoided the beach after the tsunami. the flooded waters didn't mix well with her new powers and being in the water kind of made her nervous now, in all honesty. her body certainly wasn't strong enough to swim right now. but, the scent of snowbound in the distance pulled her past her worries and caused her to approach despite them. was mister jacob visiting? she hoped so - she was always very happy to see him.

but, as the injured girl struggled to the growing group, she was not faced with mister jacob, but another snowbound member she had met. atbash. she's caesar's sister, she remembered. as she stumbled towards them, her weak legs shaking against the movement, she listened to her words. mister jacob stepped down? did he tell papa he'd do that? is he okay? as she finally got close enough, she looked around for a moment. she would have liked to lean on someone for support, but she didn't know either greed or malana well enough, so she just plopped down.

the girl turned her gaze fully to atbash, eyes concerned. "hi again! i'm goldie, if you forgot." she decided to greet in a friendly tone before asking anything. "sorry about the mess - we got hit by a tsunami. um, is mister jacob okay?" she asked, kind of quickly. stepping down didn't automatically mean he isn't okay, of course, but she still worried. she was so worried, in fact, that she forgot to congratulate atbash.

Oh, it was Goldie! Atbash remembered her from the little party Jacob had set up before he stepped down, though as her gaze settled upon the girl's injuries, she frowned. "Oh, yeah, Jacob's fine. He's just stressed right now." She replied. "But are you okay, Goldie?" Those scars looked awful and Atbash couldn't imagine how much pain the little she-cat went through. Atbash took note of the tsunami she mentioned, of course, but what had her focus right now as Goldenluxury and her injuries.

the girl was glad to hear mister jacob was fine, but frowned slightly as she mentioned he was stressed. she would need to make him something and try to help him out. that would make him feel better! maybe stepping down would help him relax, too. maybe her papa could help her make something. as she started planning what she'd do for mister jacob, she seemed to zone out a little until atbash asked about her injuries.

her gaze quickly shot back to the female and she would give a reassuring smile. "i'm okay! i'm all patched up. i got hit by lightning but i'm tough!" she explained quickly, hoping the female wouldn't worry. in all honesty, it hurt a lot, but she would deal with it. it was only temporary. "oh! by the way, congratulations on becoming chief. i bet you'll do great!"
