Fear me or love me

" Oh... I know. "

The spirit was indeed hard to find. Or at least to those who didn't knew how to find her. Though she does tend to appear to those few who knew her name and called for her in the woods. This giant wasn't one of them apparently.

The barn owl also was less than happy with the entities behavior. It continues to constantly attack Shade's hand. Even when Eule told it that it was pretty useless to do so. Though it fluttered frantically, and out of the way, when the attempt of a nudge was there.

" They do not like you for... trapping me like this... So please. At least... open your hand... It is very uncomfortable like this... and no need for it anyway... "

She spoke, her voice more apathetic than usual. Well, she wasn't exactly happy. So that might be the reason.

"You should be patient as well. I didn't intend to keep holding you like this." He had just gotten distracted by the owl.

Once the owl had moved, he turned his hand over, palm up, and uncurled his fingers, revealing her there. The apathetic voice did kind of read as 'unamused' to him, but he was not often dissuaded by that sort of thing.

It was just nice to take her time packing up something nice. She believed in fulfilling snacks over a bottle of lukewarm water or a swig of rum. Edmund was of very different advice, of course. He only spared Shade a glance at the question.

"Aye." Wishing the newest gizmo a long service was a good reason to have a drink. The flask was passed around while Rook eased her radio back in its box for safer transport.

"I'm sure it'll go as planned. Stay tuned!"

The pirates saluted as they followed Rook back in her pocket. The portal closed but the connection remained. It wouldn't be too long before the radio would begin playing music.

"Guess what! You can listen to some radio stations too now!"

He held the device closer to his mouth and pressed down the button to transmit. They knew it worked one way at least, time to test the other.

"I see. It occurs to me there are certain details of operating the device we didn't discuss... such as how to turn it off."

There had to be a way. It was nothing personal, just that if people were going to have an open line to play sounds in your home, you'd like to have some control over it.

«ENTRAP» except the trap is a hand

It all happened so fast that Eule had barely time to send the barn owl away before she got herself trapped... somewhere... by something? And it took the spirit another moment to reconnect with the fled bird to be able to see what exactly had trapped her. A hand closed around her. A giant one. That belonged to someone who she had actually met before. How bothersome...

" What... are you doing? "

The woman asks Shade, even though she wasn't sure he could even hear her voice given that she was trapped in his hand. Like an insect caught with bare hands. And even though her voice didn't showed it, it made Eule feel uneasy to be in this situation.

" This is... very impolite... "

"You are not the easiest individual to find, you know," was his answer to that, apparently seeing that as a valid reason for grabbing her.

It wasn't clear whether he didn't hear the 'impolite' comment, or just chose to ignore it. Either way, his attention was now drawn to the owl trying to bite him, which, ironically, slowing him down from opening his hand to look at her.

Leondas stirred at the scent of something tantalizing, awaking entirely when he heard a voice speaking to him. Eyes snapped open. Before he could find himself startled by Shade's sudden appearance, he was entranced by the mortal being dangled before him. His pupils shrank.

Silently he watched the human being held so precariously - hypnotized. His stomach grumbled and his teeth ached in his gums. A clawed hand began to reach for it, but ultimately paused.

Surely he was not being given such a treat - not without a price. His features hardened as he finally pried his gaze away, scrutinizing Shade carefully as he wiped a bit of drool from his lip.

Shade did not allow any negative reactions to the suspicion to display on his face, instead softening his expression and aiming for something 'friendly.'

"Is this not what you prefer to eat? I seem to recall you saying humans were what you preferred. I can assure you that this one is fresh."

He proceeded to pull an arm off of the body as easily as if he was handling a shrimp, causing blood to flow freely. This was, of course, intentional to entice him with the sight and smell.

"You sound like my therapist."

"The road to improvement leads you to a revolving door of repeated failure."

He gave a derisive huff, not impressed by Rick's outlook.
