Quest Catch-All and Other Things

WHO: Kaeya Alberich and you
WHAT: Catch All for October
WHEN: All of October
WHERE: Wherever the quests are, otherwise Sunwaning
WARNINGS: None, but I will update should that change.



Fashion Favors

[Kaeya did enjoy trying out new fashion trends, but a quest where he had to create something himself? Color him intrigued! Also, the fancy signs helped. While the style he was assigned wasn't exactly something he knew the definition of, once he was shown the options he had to try and get creative with, then the ideas started flowing.

He pocketed the assignment and went about browsing the fabrics and accessories. He had only been to Sumeru a handful of times and it was closest Nation he could think of for this kind style. He held up a pair of white pants with lovely golden embroidery to his waist to sort of eyeball if they would fit.]


Hmm, I think these ought to do...

[This is the outfit he will ultimately end up with.]

Sinking Treasures

[Like Kaeya would really pass up going treasure hunting. Okay, yes, he generally would if all it was just bits and baubles. But possible enhancement to clothes and armor? Now that was actually useful. So, he made his way to the Great Ocean Lake and towards the large island bearing turtle that had surfaced. He had been told that feed it snacks would also keep it aloft for awhile longer so he had a bag of treats with him as well.]

I think we have enough snacks for the turtle so allows us to obtain at least one of these treasures, don't you think?

[He could have probably done this alone, but where was the fun in that? He liked going with a companion for silly quests like this. It was also hardly dangerous, unless they get dragged under by the turtle. But he was confident that wasn't necessary.]

Training

[While he had not been lacking in training, Kaeya did feel like he hadn't done as much as he would have were he still in Mondstadt. The same also went for his horse, Umbra. For once, he was quite glad at how into sports and competitions Dayrise was known for. Kaeya didn't mind training, but he was hardly the type to get into random competitions with the folk here, no matter how good-natured they seemed. But today was different and he found a field specifically for archery and horseback riding. He set up several targets along a well worn track that appeared to be used for what he was already planning on.

Then, he selected a bow and a quiver strapped to his waist. Mounting Umbra, he fired a few practice arrows while Umbra stayed still. After making a few adjustments to his posture and where the quiver was, he nodded to himself with a "hyah!" and a nudge to Umbra's sides, they were off. Umbra rode hard and fast down the track while Kaeya shot at the targets in rapid succession. They all hit the target, but not all hit the bulls eye. Still...]


Hooo...~

[He reigned Umbra in as they cleared the track and turned around, trotting back so he could collect the arrows to try again.]

Better than I thought, but I think we can go a few more rounds to do better. What do you think, old girl?

[Umbra nickered and bumped her nose on Kaeya's outstretched hand, just before he nabbed one of the arrows. He chuckled and patted her neck.]

I thought so.

[They continued to make their way back to try again, nodding to any who happened to also be there for practice.]

Kaenya - Locked to Ayato

[Kaeya in cat form was a grayish blue domesticated cat. The blue-tinted cat was becoming well known in Sunwaning, although Kaeya did find it amusing that no one really put two and two together in all his time here. Why, you ask? Because while Kaeya was in cat form, his eyepatch changed with him! It became small enough to fit his smaller body and managed to stay on with ease.

Never the less, it was definitely interesting running around Sunwaning as a cat, the culture seemed to adore cats and often offered him food and free scritches. Kaeya was lapping up all the attention and it was definitely a lot more relaxing when like this. It also made gathering intel and scoping out the area so much easier when you looked like some random stray cat.

Although, he did have to be mindful when running across anyone who actually knew him more deeply than an acquaintance. So far, the locals had yet to make the connection but that didn't mean someone from Mondstadt or Teyvat as a whole wouldn't! Of course, that didn't mean he was always successful in his stealth...]


Wildcard

[I also have Kaeya on the Full Moon Mingle. If you want to do a different quest, just hit me up! I don't have a plotting comment, but you can DM me on Discord, here, or Plurk [plurk.com profile] rainy_mood]

[Tartaglia allows a flash of recognition to shine in his lightless eyes at the name, because the Fatui of course, are aware of all the prominent figures within the Knight of Favonius, given how many times they've tried to worm their way into Mondstadt and gain more ground on the country...]

Not only is it a pleasure, but an honor. I've heard word of the Calvary Captain of the Knights of Favonius. You'll have to forgive me, you may actually know me better as Childe, one of the Fatui Harbingers.

[He's not trying to brag, he's just not interested in deceiving Kaeya as to his true identity. His tone reflects that- it's said casually and without gravity.]

But you know...now I'm even more interested in testing my ability against your own. I may be at a disadvantage here, since I don't have my own horse- but I'm confident I can hold my own. What do you say? A target practice challenge, between the two of us.

Haha, it's true that there's not much need for horses up in the frozen north of Snezhnaya. But I've had to travel all over- so you could say I've ridden a horse or two in my time.

[He shoots a confident, bright smile back at Kaeya, setting his arms akimbo before he takes a look at Umbra. Though Kaeya reassures him that she'll listen to him, he slowly approaches her and holds out the back of his hand for her to sniff.]

But, it's probably up to Umbra here to see if we'll get to do this at all. I hardly would want to push her to let a rider on her that she's uncomfortable with.

[And if she lets him, he'll give her some pats too.]
