[A video feed begins showing Hornet from the neck down. She lifts a piece of paper to present to the feed on which is drawn her mask.]

My mask was washed away during the flooding. If anyone comes upon it I would greatly appreciate it if they would return it to me. I will gladly recompense you in the form of demichroma, Chroma, or if you need anything sewn I can do that as well. I'm willing to negotiate.

[Simple and to the point, she turns off the feed without further ado.]

(ooc; if anyone wants to plot being the one to find it you can dm me or contact me on CalledVertigo)

Yes, though if you'd like to remain discreet with your gift, if I could get a look at them I am good at measuring by eye.

That's convenient. Could you do that with a picture? I don't have one of Marie at the moment but, I think I can quickly snag one of her.

[Spies are good at taking pictures without being caught.]

I think....maybe tomorrow morning, a little before noon, I can send you a picture of her.

[silksentinel]

A picture might be a bit more difficult. It wouldn't really give me as much of a sense as I could if I saw her myself. [Hornet puts a tarsi to her mask, thoughtfully.]

If you gave me a picture so I can recognize her, however, and told me where I might find her I could see her from a distance and get what I need.

[getting_better]

Mmm. That's a better idea.

[Skilled weavers are truly impressive, he thinks. He knows how to sew but it's certainly far from being his greatest skill.]

Chances are you'll find her at her cafe, Salon de Marie, where I work. She's usually up and about so she won't be hard to spot. I'll get you the photo, but just on the off chance she passes by or something, she's about yay tall,slender build, has stark white hair, big blue eyes, and usually wears a big hat. I hope that helps.

[Hornet committed the description to memory and gave a small nod.]

I will keep an out then, and once I have the picture I'll visit. [She might have to come up with an excuse for why she's there. From what she's garnered a salon is some sort of beauty place? They didn't really have that sort of thing in Hallownest. Whatever case, it wouldn't be an issue.]

[getting_better]

Great. Thank you again, Hornet. If you do stop by the cafe, let me know. I'll cook you something nice, you won't be disappointed I promise you that.

[He smiles confidently until a thought occurs to him. She's a bug person.]

Ummm, not to be rude but, what do you eat?

[silksentinel]

Other insects. The ones without a self.

But I have been trying some of the cuisine here. I am not a picky eater and find I have no difficulty digesting human foods.

[getting_better]

[Oh thank goodness. Lord save his damned soul if he had to learn something like ladybug pie or wasp stew.]

Good to hear, that means my declaration still stands. Some of the best food you'll taste.

[He takes a look around, the sun just about to vanish on the horizon.]

Well, it's getting dark I really shouldn't keep you any further unless there's something else I can help with while I'm here.

lmfao dodged on there bishop xD

[silksentinel]

I look forward to it then.

[Bugs don't have much taste. Eating food for pleasure is definitely something new to Hornet.]

Nothing else. Safe travels.
