ROLEPLAY HQ - request-for-help

Never sat idly on the bench outside of the Adventurers Guild, the black hiking boot covered foot of her crossed leg bouncing softly as her silvery white gaze flicked over each person that walked in front of her. Her head dipped to a few, while others got a small smirk as their cheeks warmed and their pace heading into the guild quickened. "Awww..." Those were past adventurers that had worked for her before and who were embarrassed by that fact. "Come'on... You liked it at the time." She'd mumble under her breath before sighing. Taking a deep breath, she stretched her leopard spotted arms high above her head to get the blood flowing through her again, her back popping in a few spots before letting them drop back to her lap. Snatching up her phone, she'd key in the code to unlock the screen and pulled up the profile of the adventurer she was waiting on today. "Henry..." She'd murmur under her breath, thumb scrolling to his picture for the umpteenth time that morning, wanting to lock his face into her mind so she didn't miss him on his way into the guild. Usually she had to wait until her contracts were nearly expired and she'd raised the payout price before someone accepted, but she'd gotten a response relatively quickly this time and she was eager to set out and gather what she needed before he changed his mind. She knew that people talked about her, she could hear some of it as she walked down the streets on her deliveries. "Hey, its her... Think she's out 'collecting' today?" "Hahaha, I heard Hank helped her a couple weeks ago, haven't seen him since!" "Oooh~ Do ya think she has him locked up in her basement so she can permanently collect from him?" "I wouldn't mind doing some of my own collecting from her~" "Fuuuck, have you seen it when she starts leaking? Talk about the perfect cow!" Most of it she could ignore, but others left her cheeks burning red and parts of her body reacting that forced her to find somewhere to hide until she calmed down. Today was quiet though, any chatter about her was in hushed tones out of her hearing range, so it was nice. Setting her phone down on the bench beside her, the screen lingering on Henry's photo, she'd slide her bag onto her lap and start double checking the supplies inside, most of which were empty glass containers with lids.

Pulling a little leather bound journal out, she'd unwind the cord holding it shut and flicked open to a specific page that had what looked like a supplie list written down. The bouncing of her foot got a little faster as she mentally checked off the list to triple check she'd written down everything she was running short on. At the top was Dryad Essence, that was the main goal and the reason she needed the adventurers help. Everything else she could have gotten on her own as they were either mineral or herbal in nature, but she wasn't going to pass up the chance if they stumbled across something she needed. If she could get it all knocked out in one day, that'd be ideal! Closing the journal up and returning it to her bag, she'd drape her arms across the back of the bench and return to watching all the people walk past her as she waited. It was a nice summer day, the temperature teasing everyone by just nearly being too hot, but the few scattered clouds idly floating through the sky helped block out some of that heat from the sun as a tiny breeze pushed them along. Never was thankful that the bench she'd claimed was hiding in the shade of the guild building as she and heat didn't normally get along very well. She was designed for a more colder climate, somewhere with high reaching mountain peaks and snowy covered cliffs. The thick long grey and black spotted tail curled up beside her on the bench was the main giveaway of what she was, along with the matching black and grey spots that decorated her arms, torso, hips and down one of her thighs, all of which could be seen poking out of her clothing here and there. Luckily she wasn't covered in fur all over, or she'd be dead at the moment, nah, her spots looked more like birth marks against her skin pale creamy skin. Claws, sharp feline fangs and slightly pointed black-backed ears were the other giveaways. Her hair was a long silvery white color with black roots that hung to the middle of her back, though for today it was done up in a messy bun atop her head to allow more airflow against her skin to keep her cool.

Henry arrived in the city not too long ago, he has only been here for about a month. He moved here from a very rural town about 3 hours away. Henry was raised in the town by his parents where his father taught him all about combat and adventuring as he was once an adventurer who now turned into a towns guardsmen. Finally, at the age of 24 after spending 6 years in the guard with his father, he decided to head out with the money he saved up to truly be an adventurer who travels the world and finds artifacts and fights monsters, all for hire! He chose this city as it was close enough to home that if his family needed him he could be there quickly, but it was also far enough away that he would be independent. This very city is where Henry is waking up in his 2LDK apartment for a quest he received at the guilds notice board. "Never, huh. I have heard murmurs of her and rumors; but nothing ever concrete." Henry heard a variety of rumors about the snow leopard neko ranging from her eccentricates to her being a succubus in disguise to even people being locked in her basement for some sort of collection... fees was it? "Well, whatever she is I have heard about her a bunch over the past month and I intend to figure out why with this request. It's a win-win. I get to get paid and learn about her and she gets the items she needs for her potioneering. I think I recall she wanted to meet at the adventurers guild... quite eager; I could have just gone to her shop." Not thinking too much about it, Henry shrugs and gets dressed after a 10 minute relaxing shower. "Ahhh, that was nice. I should eat something filling before heading out." Henry ended up making sausage, eggs, and toasting two english muffins. After a little bit of post food stretching, Henry set off to the adventurers guild.

9:02 AM

As someone who is has worked his body extensively, he was able to jog pretty quickly to the guild, only in about 15 minutes, "Now... Never wanted to meet in front of the guild at 9:30, its 9:10 so, I probably beat her here? I will go wait by the benches for her as she probably does not want to go inside and get right to exploring if she so readily met me out here." Henry arrived at the guild and began to look around for the benches! There are many people walking about, but he catches a glimpse of them and begins to walk over.

9:05 AM

((Reference for Henry's look))

Never wasn't sure exactly how much time had passed since she'd taken up her perch on the bench. Her morning had started with making a few deliveries that were close to the guild, hence her wanting to meet here instead of at her shop, but it also saved them time as they'd have to walk back past the guild to exit town, and she was all about making things easier on herself. Soon, all the faces walking past her started to blur together and she actively stopped trying to hunt for Henry, her gaze just zoning out at the mass of passing bodies as she enjoyed the moment alone. She couldn't wait to get to the woods and out of the stone city. It'd be quieter out there for one thing, but it'd be cooler and darker with the canopy of trees overhead providing shelter from the sun. Hearing a chime from her phone as it received a message, she'd pick the device up and glance at Henry's photo for a moment again before swapping over to the new notification. It as a item commission via her website where she listed all the services she offered and also had an available form for custom orders should people wish. "Surprise surprise..." She'd sigh out as she looked over the message, taking note of the special notes section underneath one of her standardly stocked items. "Fresh ingredients only. ASAP!" Groaning, she'd lock up her phone and cover her face with her hands. Freshness did make her items more potent, and that potency degraded with age, so all items she sold had a potency date listed with them which prevented her from simply grabbing something she'd already made and just sell that to the customer. Digging out her journal again, she'd unwind and open it again, flicking through a few pages until she found the item that had been ordered and started reading through the ingredients she needed.

1:53 PM

"Fuck..." She'd groan, realizing some of the stuff was close to where the Dryad was last spotted, but it would be out of their way and prolong the amount of time they'd be out. She had made sure to drain herself dry before leaving her shop that morning, knowing that depending on how things went with the Dryad, she should have been able to make it back safely before needing to deal with any engorgement issues and leaking. The bouncing of her foot started to pick up pace as she brainstormed what to do. Either they got the Dryad collection done as fast as possible so she could sent Henry back to town and keep her cost for hiring him lower... Or keep him with for the detour and excuse herself for a pitstop halfway through so she could deal with her issue... Or maybe... Her head tilted a little as she pondered the option of Henry being into leaking tits and wanting to help... Her cheeks instantly started to tint with a warm blush as she felt some stirring from the cock tucked inside her shorts. Shaking her head to clear out the lewd thoughts and shifting her legs to readjust herself, she'd snap the journal closed and return it to her back, now even more eager to get out and get this done. It just so happened that she spotted the face that matched the picture on her phone through the crowd coming at her. "Ah! Perfect!" She'd bounce up, fingers hooking the bottom hem of her shorts to give a quick tug downward to free up some space before looping her bag strap over her shoulders and tucking her phone in her back pocket. When he got within talking distance, her hand would shoot out in greeting. "Henry? Thank you so much for meeting with me and helping me out with this today. You understand what I need your help with, right? Goal is to subdue, not kill. I can't get anything from dead creatures, at least nothing I'd want to use. Do you have any questions?" Never was older than Henry, currently in her early thirties, but she had the body of someone still fully in her prime. Slim waist, long legs, wide curvy hips and while she was drained, her chest was still modestly large. @Divine Nickels
