Fallow shrunk back, looking at the other two for an answer. "I-i don't know. Marshall and I don't know anything about the human customs... they weren't really in our studies." Marshall nodded timidly, "We're useless in the situation."
Trauma nervously stuffed his dagger--even though it was hidden well--underneath his cloak.

Abeline linked her arms across her chest, amusement wrinkling her eyes. "Well..." she began. "I know that humans weren't in your studies but was pick-pocketing?" A wicked grin flickered across her face as she waved a watch in the air, the light glinting off of it. "You learn a thing or two once you move away from home, I'm sure you've learned." Abeline grinned, looking at them expectantly before pocketing the watch.

(Sorry I took so long... holiday and jetlag got in the way >n<)
Fallow nodded, smiling brightly. "That's a plan we can stick to," Marshall said, looking around the open park, "Nice job on that watch, by the way."
Fallow tapped her toe rapidly--an old habit--and looked over to Marshall. "Tag team or solo?"
He laughed, "That's a stupid question."

(No problem! ^^)
Abeline smiled at Marshall. "Thanks," she said. "Like I said, you learn a few things." She glanced around, noticing the man who had owned the pocketwatch fish into his pocket to discover it gone. He began to grow hysterical, claiming it had taken him months to save up for it. Despite her hard nature, Abeline felt the tinniest sliver of pity for the man; he seemed truly upset. "But... we shouldn't stay here long. People will grow suspicious if things just suddenly start disappearing, all in the same area."

"I understand your logic there, but are you also implying that we split up?" Fallow asked, her concern seeping through onto her face. She was still new to the 'spreading out' concept, but again, she'd never allied with anyone other than Marshall (for this long, at least). She felt a connection to this girl, and didn't mind at allying with her. Fallow quite enjoying being in a group with these people, but she wouldn't blame them if they decided to abandon her and Marshall. After all, they were--in essence--threatening their lives.

Abeline shrugged. "No, I wasn't suggesting that. But... it might be better if we split up. That way, we can cover more area." She frowned for a moment, going over the cons. "Then again, we might be ambushed, or we might lose each other. Well, I haven't been in this business for awhile. What do you guys think we should do?"

Trauma nodded. "That's true. I suppose we could spread out, but stay relatively close to each other? And perhaps meet back here?" He ran a thumb across his chin in thought. He doubted that they would lose each other, but being ambushed... We can all fight, and well at that. He glanced over at Abeline, his gaze lingering a bit. He found himself unable to lock gazes with her and flitted his face away, slightly intimidated by her striking features (especially her eyes). They were extremely... intense, to put it simply.
"Seems like a solid plan to me. Unless our luck hits the fan," Marshall said, shrugging slightly with tense shoulders.

Abeline smiled. "Alright!" She said cheerfully. "I hate to be the one asking all the questions, but who do you think we should each pair up with? I mean, maybe it would be better if Marshall and Fallow went together, since you know, they have been relying on each other for quite some time and will probably do better with each other rather than Trauma or me. But... you two have been doing this for much longer than I have, and maybe even Trauma." She paused, eyebrows knitting. "Now wait a second," she muttered to herself, eyes narrowing. "We don't even know much about Trauma. I know that he hasn't hurt us yet, but don't you find it a little suspicious that he showed up right when the demons appeared." She hooked her thumbs in the belt loops sewn onto her jeans. "In fact, has he told you guys anything at all about himself since I was out?"

"Not extremely much," Fallow answered softly, unsure if Abeline's question was rhetorical or not. Trauma blinked sharply, taken aback from the sudden suspicion. He then shrugged, respecting Abeline for playing it safe. "I'm not sure what to say. I'm not going to harm you guys, I swear... If you want to question me or something, go ahead, I guess?" Trauma shrunk back a little, unsure of what to say.

"Why were you there?" Abeline asked. "I mean, it seems pretty convenient that within days of finding Marshall and Fallow that you showed up. I hadn't even known that there were other humans with powers like mine until I met them. So... why were you there?"

"Elf," he correctly gently, rubbing the back of his neck. Trauma immediately paused, regretting the decision to correct Abeline (he was still intimidated by her).
Coaxing himself to continue, he took a deep breath and tried to find a starting point. "My father and I... had some complications. As a result, I left the elf village and came into the human world. I, uh... started out in the forests since I was most comfortable there. It was pure chance that the demons came by when they did."

"Hmm..." Abeline's hand strayed to her chin, rubbing it as though a beard were there. Her eyes narrowed as they flickered across Trauma's pale face, trying to gauge whether he was lying or not. Finally, she gave a sigh and stood back a little. It wasn't so much that she believed him... it was more that the people around her were beginning to give the group odd looks. "Alright." She said, shaking her head. "I'm sorry for bringing that up," she tried to add a bit of warmth to her voice. "It's just... I don't want to be tricked into doing something stupid." She gave a half-hearted laugh. "Well... are we going to... y'know...? Do you guys still want to split up?"

It's a tough call. Fallow nodded, a slight upwards curve to her lips. We could. Abeline and Trauma know how to hide themselves. The demons will forget about them eventually, right? She thought, her gaze flickering around her newly-found allies. She wanted so desperately to know that staying with them was more benefit than harm, but she couldn't shake the thought that she and Marshall would lead them to death.
"I think it's a pretty good idea," Marshall chirped, rocking back and forth on his feet.

"Okay!" Abeline grinned, a genuine one this time. Her nerves were already pricking with excitement at the thought of going out and stealing again, though not in fear, but in excitement. "Of course, we still have to choose who's going with whom. I don't really care who I end up with. Does anyone have any ideas?"

Fallow's tail flicked giddily, her smile bright. "Marshall and I could split up, so we'd get a chance to learn each other's... uh... strategies. Yeah," she said, her voice squeaking a bit. "Abeline, you up for it?" She asked, turning to the girl. Her eyes shimmered with a childish joy as she flicked her mass of cyan-colored curls over her shoulder.

(this is so fitting for Valentine's Day lol)
Abeline felt a strange pang of... what? Excitement? Joy?

No, ridiculous. Why would she? She felt nothing for...

Oh. Oh no.

As the realization dawned on her, a bright blush filled her cheeks and horror rang out in her mind. Nononononononono... the last time this had happened, it had not gone well. She had to end this feeling.

So, as best as she could, she pushed it down, angling her face away from the twins to hide her blush, and mustered a cheery voice. "Of course!" She said, smiling.

Marshall returned Abeline's smile briefly, turning his head to look over at the snow elf. He had talked less to Trauma than anyone else (despite walking all the way from the forest to the city with him), and preferred to be with Abeline or Fallow. More of a reason to get to know him, Marshall thought, pocketing his hands. "We'd best get going now," Trauma said softly, looking over his shoulder. They were beginning to draw attention, although it was mostly due to their loitering and Fallow's brightly colored features (Trauma wore a cloak that wasn't noticeable at first glance).

Abeline nodded, taking a deep breath, attempting to angle her thoughts away from... her thoughts. Being with Fallow would be interesting, to say the least. She didn't know Fallow's strategies yet, and talking to a person (or closest to that) would be intriguing, since she hadn't done it for so many years.

Abeline blinked, withdrawing from her thoughts. "Do you think over there would be a good place to...?" She nodded her head by a hotdog stand, where an overly plump man was shouting baloney about his best wieners, that they were better than any of the other ones. Abeline offered a small smile.

Abeline's gesture drew Fallow's eyes to the stand. The man, his face pink from all of the bellowing, reminded Fallow of all the demon markets she and Marshall had gone to during their childhood. She suspected that the man was spouting just as many (if not more) lies as the demons would. "I think it would." She smiled before adding, "my fantasy-like appearance sort of draws attention, doesn't it?... Maybe it'd be best for me to create distractions, rather than doing the actual pick-pocketing?" She flicker her hair behind her ear.

Abeline hesitated a moment before giving a brisk nod. Of course Fallow couldn't pickpocket. Everyone's eyes would be on her at all times. Which made her the perfect distraction.

"Good idea! What are you planning to do? You could, like, put on a performance where you are 'pretending' to be a demon. That'd be ironic. You could freak out a lot of people by randomly quoting Shakespeare. Actually, they probably don't have him down in the underworld, do they? Um... you could accuse the hotdog guy of foul hotdogs, but that might get us arrested..."
