WHERE FIRE AND ICE COLLIDE ♦️ job

Heat cannot be separated from fire, or beauty from The finite.

Bosco was a city of great technology, far greater than that of Fiore. The amount of technology surpassed even the most advanced town within Fiore. It was even more of a shock for Venir who came from Eclipse Soul, the guild that was practically in the stone ages when it came to technology and the like. Then there was the amount of people, it was almost suffocating her. There was more people crammed into one building in Bosco then there was in a whole town in Fiore. All of the people made it especially dangerous for Venir. She was still so unstable when it came to controlling herself, keeping those ever burning flames in check. Even now she could feel them threatening to build up if she didn't keep a reign on then. Those who had made the poor mistake of accidentally brushing against her bare skin hissed at the contact, pulling away from flame goddess slayer.

There were so many people bustling by that she would bump or brush into others no matter what she did. Her body hadn't heated up too much yet but eventually she was sure she'd be giving people bad burns if she remained out there for much longer. Which lead Venir into an upper class bar of sorts. Age was not the issue that Venir faces when she sought entry into the establishment. If anything it was her general appearance, her clothes were that of a traveler maybe even an adventurer. Venir did not currently look like someone who belonged in a high class bar. However, Venir gave a few bats of her dark lashes, head tilting to the side in question, looking oh so disappointed at the man who had dared to deny her entry. His own gaze fell upon her ample chest, and with a huff of air he let the blonde woman inside. The interior was just as nice as the exterior, one part of the establishment having a fancy restaurant of sorts, a dance floor towards the back, and just off to the side was a bar that didn't have too many inhabitants.


Venir slid into a seat at the bar propping her chin up with the palm of her hand. She gave the bartender her best smile when he gave her a skeptical look. It wasn't often that a young woman came in asking for such an interesting drink choice. It was almost as strange as the young woman that had simply asked for a glass of ice... He slid the glass of flaming liquid over to the blonde watching as she looked over curiously. She gave it a cautious sniff, she herself still trying to get used to the idea of her body being able to consume flames. Then with one hand gripping the edge of the bar's counter, her other hand reached out and grasped onto the glass before downing it flame and all in one go.


She chirped happily, slamming the glass back down onto the counter with a clink. The bartender was quick to fetch Venir another. As he prepared her another glass of flames, Venir's grip upon the counter loosened, revealing how her palm had quite literally scorched its imprint into the counter, not that she had taken notice of that small detail quite yet.

Just as Venir's next flaming drink had arrived so had an unexpected but not unwelcome guest. A woman with dark pink eyes but light pinkish hair had approached with a more than friendly smile. Not one to be shown up Venir gave her own toothy grin accompanied with a casual wave of her hand. That grin quickly faded at the mention of her own slayer abilities, was it that obvious? "Ah yeah sorry!" She quickly apologized not really knowing what for but she felt the need to nonetheless. "I was just a little hungry is all." She quickly explained, sometimes it felt like she had two stomachs. One for food, her appetite for that had grown tremendously as well and another stomach reserved for flames. Luckily, it wasn't often that she had a craving for fire considering there wasn't exactly an abundance of ways for her to get it but flaming shots of liquor generally did the trick. That and her flame body helped her burn away any negative effects the alcohol might have on her.

Venir's nose couldn't help but crinkle at the sight of the stranger just eating ice like it was nothing. Why would she subject herself to such torture? Ice was so plain and hard by itself that the sweet loving flame slayer could only shudder. "At least get ice cream or something!" Her look of distaste was quick to pass as her ever shifting attention found something else to lock onto. "Black Rose!?" She chirped almost too happily, little sparkles almost appearing in her amethyst gems, "I know a mage from Black Rose! You wouldn't happen to know an Elyx would you?" She had been helped many times by the wind wizard so it was only natural that she would react so pleasantly to a member of his guild. The blonde hardly gave Izayuki time to respond as a sudden gasp escaped her lips and her palm met her forehead, "I almost forgot to introduce myself! I'm Venir RuLush! Flame Goddess Slayer from... Fiore." If there was one thing Venir knew it was manners, she was a bit ditzy but friendly and mannerly at the least. The name of her own guild was disregarded or rather she did not bring it up as it no longer existed, and the circumstances of her guild closing was one that she preferred to avoid talking about even when so far away from Fiore. Hopefully, Izayuki wasn't the prying type and Fiore would be a simple enough answer though being Guildless wasn't exactly Venir's first choice.

"I don't know about cool!" She scratched at the back of her blonde locks almost sheepishly, always a little shy when it came to taking compliments. Then again it wasn't exactly common to meet someone who could drink fire like it was water, and down as much alcohol as she wanted without getting drunk. Any of its negative effects she could burn away without so much as thought it made her wonder if she could actually get drunk if she wanted to, was it possible for her to not burn off the effects? "YOU BEAT ELYX!?" Her eyes widened, her body recoiling back in her seat out of shock, her voice slipping into a shout without realizing it. The shock soon faded to an awe akin to that of a child's. "You must be crazy strong then!" Her voice had taken on a half-whisper of wonder. Elyx had saved her on countless occasions, she herself was still the little platinum haired child when thinking back to the wind wizard. Apparently it had yet to occur to the fire slayer that she could possibly rival him now. "I'll be sure to stay on your good side then!" The fire mage joked and downed the rest of the flaming liquor that had been slid over to her.

While Izayuki spoke the fire wizard absentmindedly ran her fingers over the still warm glass that had once contained a small flame. "Hmmmmmm....." She hummed in thought, violet eyes disappearing behind dark lashes as she considered Izayuki's proposition. "Personally, I wouldn't be caught dead eating unflavored ice." As oblivious as ever Venir still had yet to pick up on her fellow slayers abilities, "Luckily, the cold doesn't bother me very much! I bet you can guess why!" Truth be told she hadn't felt cold since the day the lacrima inside of her had stirred to life. If anything at times it felt like her body was overheating. "That and after all Elyx has done for me," and for her long destroyed guild, "I kind of owe Black Rose a favor or two!" Once more she scratched at the back of her head,

Unlike Izayuki, Venir had the pleasure of paying for her drinks not that they were that expensive. Even if they were the wandering mage had more than enough jewels to cover a few drinks at a bar. She had amassed a small fortune, not the richest in Fiore, but for a guildless mage she was well off. Most of it was back from when she was within Eclipse Soul, she had no need to spend any of the money she earned from jobs back then so her bank account steadily climbed. On the other hand since becoming the equivalent of homeless Venir had spent her days doing job after job to keep her mind off of certain things, and in the process he had earned more jewels. Regardless her earnings grew faster than costs. However, money was the least of the blondes concerns at the moment.


She seemed a bit skeptical but it wasn't exactly implausible. With a wide range of mages and magic, flying was more or less considered a basic. Even the slayer had her own form of flight, albeit a dangerous and impractical way of flight but it did get the job done. It would appear that the two of them had very different idea's of flight. "WAH!" At Izayuki's transformation the blonde threw herself back, startled to say the least. She hit the ground with an audible thud but she hardly seemed to notice, "A little warning next time would be awesome..." She paused taking in the sight of the fire bird before her, "But that's so cooooool! Can you teach me how to do that!?" In a flash she was off of the ground and practically dancing around Izayuki, inspecting the bird from all angles. "Heights?" She waved her hand as if to dismiss the idea, she was wary of height but her thrill for adventure easily outweighed any concerns, "So how does this work? Can I ride you?" She chirped, that familiar sparkle of excitement twinkling in her amethyst orbs, "Or am I flying there myself I mean I can do it but it's not gonna be nearly as graceful as your method of flying!"
