Ooh, I wouldn't mind! Got any plots in mind, or should we just wing it?

Sweet! Do you want to make the starter, or should I? Also, should we move this to a different thread?

Chicken nuggets and pasta. Sounds pretty good. Also, do you want to make the starter?

Alright. And yeah, that's the tough part about not plotting; everything just kind of goes all over the place. Anyways, I'll write something up.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Today was, well, an awfully boring day. But at least he was off work for once; that was a relief. He definitely had enough money to go a couple weeks (perhaps even a couple months) without working, though it was nice to have a steady cash flow. It wasn't as if he minded his job in general-sure, there were a few bad apples, but they didn't make up the majority of his career. Creatures hurried out of his way as he slithered down the street, more than likely afraid they were going to be squashed. Either that, or they just didn't fancy touching an ink monster. The demon was so absorbed in his thoughts that at first he didn't notice the wet smack as he ran right into someone. "Oh!" The translator on his chest let out a burst of static. "You okay? Sorry 'bout that.."

The navy-haired girl had been so focused on her cell phone that she didn’t notice him until she had ran into him. She stumbled backward, though she didn’t lose her balance. Before looking at who she had run into, she slipped her phone into her back pocket. The girl had just come from work, and while she didn’t particularly enjoy the drama that came with the job, she had to find some way to pay her college tuition and rent. As much as her parents loved her, there was no way they could afford to pay for everything for her. She looked up, pushing a few strands of hair out of her face as she saw who she had run into. “Yeah, I’m fine,” she finally answered. “Are you okay?”

"That's good, then." He would have blinked had he possessed actual eyeballs. "Would be awfully awkward if I knocked someone over," he said, and briefly tilted the Yield sign that formed his head downwards so he could see her ink-stained clothes better. "Sorry about your outfit. Gonna be a pain to wash out if you wait too long." Strange how she wasn't scared, or actively running away screaming and flailing her arms. He usually didn't frequent this part of town; were his kind commonplace here? Suffice it to say, he didn't really know. Rubbing the back of his head with a ghostly, 4-clawed hand, he took a few moments before speaking again. "I'm fine. Being made of ink has its benefits. The majority of my body's extradimensional space, anyhow. Your hair looks nice, by the way."

Now that the girl had more than a few seconds to take in his appearance, she was now a little freaked out. Her heart began beating slightly faster, but she didn’t feel the need to run away from him even though she had never encountered anyone like him before. She looked down at her clothes, finally noticing the ink on them. “Oh, right,” she said, frowning slightly. “It’s not like I’m wearing my favorite pair of jeans and a new shirt,” she said sarcastically before rolling her eyes. “Ink?” she asked, raising an eyebrow. Well, it did make sense with the new stains on her clothes. “Oh, thanks.” She gave him a genuine smile after hearing the compliment.

"Ha, yeah. Sorry again." He didn't exactly chuckle; it was more of a eerie rumbling sound. It echoed oddly, as well. "And, well, ink, an illogical amount of empty space, and some kind of...Glitter, I guess? Only way I know how to describe it." The demon lightly tapped one of the old-fashioned bottles hidden at his side. A silver substance sloshed around in it. "Pretty handy, at least situationally." He tore his gaze from her face briefly to look around. "We should probably move out of the street, people are trying to get by."

“Glitter’s pretty cool,” she said, folding her arms across her chest. She immediately pulled them away as she realized some of the ink had transferred to her arms, and she held them at her side, making sure to not touch her shirt. The girl liked incorporating glitter into her makeup when she didn’t have to do a professional, polished look. “Oh, right,” she said, recalling that they were in the street. She took a few steps to the side to stand on the sidewalk.

"Not so much if it's caustic and you keep chemically burning your clients on accident," he admitted awkwardly. "At least some of them are kind enough not to sue. Either that, or they care more about my services than any collateral damage. Which is somewhat touching, if you take the perspective that they care about me as a being and don't only want me for what I can provide." He moved aside as well, a little awkward given his massive bulk. "I realize that I never asked for your name. It would only be polite, so...I'm Orestes. You are?"
