Action sample for the games: Set in random jamjar city

[knifewithnoname]

[In busy streets someone who wants to go unnoticed has two choices, to blend in with the crowd or to hide. The girl was too exhausted to keep up with the bustling of the busy city and so she hid. She didn't even have to try that hard, people rarely looked up and so she was sat balanced on a roof. The roofs here were all pointy unlike the flat ones at home, it made things harder. She was leaning against a chimney eating a plumb she had snatched from a shop earlier.]

The little girl did like fish but the suspicion was still on her face.

"What do you be wanting me to be doing?"

[pencilpremonition]

"Well, I have three posters and one framed piece of art that all need delivered, and each one goes to a different corner of town. Think you could get them where they belong while I make dinner?"

[knifewithnoname]

That didn't sound too hard at all and the little girl nodded with a grin. "I can be, though you better be keeping to your end of the bargain. One whole fish."

[pencilpremonition]

"A whole fish. Do you like spicy food?" she asked, smiling brightly.

[knifewithnoname]

The little girl pulled a face, but spicy food was better than no food at all... "I do be liking sweet food better."

[pencilpremonition]

"Well, fish isn't very good when it's sweet, and too much sweet food can make you sick. But I can make it not spicy," she offered.

[knifewithnoname]

"What do you be talking about, sweet fish to be the best." She looked at the woman in confusion, "I have no been being ever sick from sweet food."

[pencilpremonition]

"Sweet fish?" she asked, wrinkling her nose. "I've never made fish sweet before, I'd have to look up a recipe."

[knifewithnoname]

"You do be making it with honey." She told her, "It do no be hard."

[pencilpremonition]

"Honey...see, I'll have to try that, now," she said with a grin.

[knifewithnoname]

"You will be, it do be nice." The girl grinned, "So where do I be getting these pictures from?"

[pencilpremonition]

"My studio, same place you'll be getting this fish from," she said with a grin, packing her notebook up before moving to carefully go in one of the open windows nearby. "This place. C'mon in," she said from inside.

[knifewithnoname]

The girl frowned and crept after her through the window, not going too far in, ready to dart out again if it turned out to be a trap.

[pencilpremonition]

Becca went over and picked up three tubes and a pencil, scribbling the addresses on each of them. Then she picked up a large but light-weight package, which was already addressed, and took them over to her new assistant. "You'd better leave through the door with these, but this is a safe building, you won't have trouble."

[knifewithnoname]

The girl took the packages, balancing them in her arms and nodded reading the addresses and working out the best route in her head.

"I will be back!"

[pencilpremonition]

When she did get back, the studio smelled of food. Becca had made fish, but also vegetables and rice as well.

[knifewithnoname]

The girl came through the window, not wanting her movements tracked. She stood awkwardly for a moment, "I did be delivering them all."

[pencilpremonition]

"Perfect. And you're just in time for food," she said, finishing up setting the table. "Sit down," she said, dishing up a plate of food for her that included one whole fish in honey sauce.

[knifewithnoname]

The girl grinned, she was hungry after all that running about. The command made her blink in surprise but the woman had made her food so, she sank to the floor near the window and crossed her legs.

[pencilpremonition]

"At the table, silly," she said, setting the plate down. "Come eat," she said, filling her own plate before taking a seat.

[knifewithnoname]

The little girl frowned but stood up and walked over before scrambling up into the chair. She glanced around but there wasn't any bread, she hadn't really seen any in this city weirdly enough, or at least not the kind you could eat food with.

She tore a strip off the fish with her fingers and popped it in her mouth, honey flooded her senses and her face lit up, she looked up at the woman with wide happy eyes.

[pencilpremonition]

Becca chuckled watching her. "You'll want to use a fork, it'll make eating the vegetables and rice easier," she said, holding up the fork she'd picked up to eat with.

[knifewithnoname]

The girl looked at it with suspicion, "It do be looking stupid." She picked up pinches of rice and pushed them into her mouth.

[pencilpremonition]

"But I get bigger bites," she said, scooping up a forkful of food and putting it in her mouth. "And I don't get my fingers all messy."

[knifewithnoname]

The girl just ignored her and continued eating the way she had been, happily devouring the honied fish. It wasn't the same as how they made it at home but it was sweet and she liked it.
