SINNERS / ooc prompt + free weapons

[CLEO R. C.]

Cleo had only attended one meeting in her short life. She had taken a seat besides Aita, listening intently to her father rifle off announcements entirely bedazzled and adorned with feathers and make up from the night before, a direct product of she and her sister's wicked mischief. That had been a good day, one that extended to her a swell of pride as her name was mentioned in passing. It was a shame that the Ascendants had stolen her so quickly after that, their leader set on bringing her back to the Observatory to use potentially as a bargaining chip. Her capture was supposed to last a few days she believed, maybe even shorter if her family had come to rescue her, but nobody ever came and to make matters worse, the Observatory entered a state of lockdown- nobody entered and nobody left. Cleo had grown bitter since returning, feelings of rejection and abandonment and anger the only things she could even begin to faintly detect or even process. The rest of her family - no, the rest of the Typhoon - was deserving of her anger, and so she cut herself off from the world, cold and hurt and ready to inflict the same sort of pain upon them. The child didn't know what else to do, healthy coping mechanisms far from something she was familiar with.

Cleo didn't hear Bakugou's call. She was deaf in her left ear and her right ear was going quickly, only sounds that originated right next to her even faintly detected. The sign caught her attention though, as did the plethora of weapons that the male had at his disposal, one in particular - bearing some type of tooth, maybe a dragon's - cause for a quick dismissal of thoughts in favor of investigating his little stand. She didn't say anything, instead raising a rosetted cinnamon paw to reach for the makeshift knife, glowing red eyes bright with need. [color=#445544]"Can I?" Cleo would suddenly inquire, remembering her manners to look up at the larger male, expression otherwise emotionless aside from that faintly evident desire to take the weapon. She didn't know what she'd do with the knife but she was a smart girl, she'd figure something out.

"Please?"
