At the risk of sounding like a poster for a missing dog, I'm wondering, if, perhaps, anyone has seen a particularly large and eldritch looking staff being dragged around town? Made out of metal, big scary red gem at the top, crescent blade at the end, may or may not be sparking and shooting lightning...

[ And she just got it back, too. What are the odds? ]

I'm not taking any responsibility for accidental electrocutions, by the way. Most of you shouldn't even be able to activate the damnable thing.

[ it's your fave person, Hawke. Dorian's laying on the couch and just frowns at her message. ]

Good God, you're irresponsible. [ HE hasn't lost any sticks, neener neener neener ]

[ Man, you don't even need video to hear that eyeroll. ]

While you have the most punchable of faces.

Erm -

[ Kitty doesn't have much experience with enormously powerful staffs ending up in the wrong hands - JUST KIDDING, SHE HAS LOADS OF EXPERIENCE WITH THIS - but she knows she doesn't dig the sound of that. ]

Being dragged. Dragged by...who? Or what?

voice

[whathawksdo]

Someone? Something? It very well could just be laying around somewhere.

All I know is it isn't laying around where I left it myself.

I fear for the wolfhound you inevitably adopt, Hawke.

[ Ha ha, it's your favourite droll Musketeer. ]

( voice. )

[whathawksdo]

[ He's the only droll Musketeer. Doesn't that make him the favorite by default? ]

You should save your fear for whoever would steal a dog from me the way my staff's been stolen. That's an offense serious enough to start a war over when you're Fereldan.

Shouldn't that kind of item be locked away?

[Actually, it's the kind of item that Bela would love to get a hold of back home. Sell it on the blackmarket.]

voice;

[whathawksdo]

It was. Clearly that didn't matter.

[ Tsk, tsk. Selling potentially cursed items in general is typically a bad idea, Bela. ]

[inmyothertights]

.....this sounds like it's going to end badly.

[whathawksdo]

For whoever took it, if they don't turn themselves in first.

[ it wasn't me, Hawke. But for real, Kasumi has definitely stolen things back that she's already sold or given before, but she wouldn't want to do that in this particular case. For one, because she respects Hawke enough, but also she doesn't know what she'd do with a potentially dangerous magic staff asides from have it look pretty in her apartment. Pretty and dangerous. So Kasumi's response ends up being less of immediate denial, more-- ]

... Wait, but you just got it back.

[ She was kind of hoping it was. It would've made this so much more simple... ]

I know! You'd think it would at least try to stick around for a month, but no.

[mousquetaire]

[ It's not that d'Artagnan is judgmental, really.

It's just that, well. Let's just say he's turned this to video for a reason. Check out this face. ]

You lost your staff?

Remind me, is this the one that causes cave-ins, or the one that puts people in magical prisons?

[whathawksdo]

[ "Not judgmental". Sure, buddy. ]

Not so much lost as in someone has taken it. [ She wouldn't misplace something like this, d'Artagnan! ] And it does neither. I do those. It just makes them worse.

[hands4healing]

...um...what town did you lose it in?

[Because if it's shooting off lightning or whatever, Winry would like to make sure it goes back to wherever it belongs and not spark off a fire or something.]

[whathawksdo]

De Chima. If it's still around, though... Well, I can only say it's not directly nearby. It could still be in De Chima.

[resipiscent]

Well... I can try to look, if you want. Magic has a particular smell, so I can kind of rule out a lot of locations.

[whathawksdo]

A... smell? Does it, really?

not actually here

[enustari]

[Thank you, Hawke, for providing the laugh Elsa needed today.]

not actually here

[whathawksdo]

[ Girl is just lucky she's never encountered the Key or she'd be at the top of the raid list. >| ]

[selfpraise]

[Varric was right when he said Hawke was a trouble magnet.]

How do you lose your staff?

[whathawksdo]

[ Nothing but trouble, it's true. ]

Someone waltzes in and takes it while I'm not looking. [ Although, considering they live together... ] I don't suppose you saw anyone out of place lurking around of late, have you?

voice

[kanadian]

Do you know where you last left it?

[whathawksdo]

In a closet, in my own room.

[ Maybe she should invest in some locks... ]

[lucke]

Almost sounds like it got up and walked out on it's own. My dad had a spear that could do that you know...

[whathawksdo]

All the odd things that happen around here, I wouldn't be all that surprised. Though it isn't meant to do that.
