COTERIE INTERACTIONS (IC) - CHAPTER I

COTERIE INTERACTIONS
✶ ✶ ✶
The leader of each coterie, all colloquially known by the same name as their group—Jaguar, Eagle, Viper, and Salamander—will play a major role in the story, oftentimes appearing in events and even, during major plots, accompanying the player characters on their quests. While having constant access to them in threads would be difficult to keep track of and may lead to unfair advantages for some characters, and they will never directly comment to any network or log posts made in

Note that it is fine to handwave minor interactions with the NPCs, such as in the case of exposition or receiving their quest orders, and you do not need to thread that out here nor ask permission from the mods. Relationships beyond passing familiarity as leader/subordinate cannot be handwaved however—in general, characters will not "build CR" with their leader to the degree they might with other characters in the game. They will still get to know them well over the course of the story, though.
Please also note that the NPCs are played by the mod team and are subject to the same tagging speed or question-answering expectations. We will respond as soon as we can!

O-oh. [ It is true. Eagle had volunteered. That probably makes it alright? Although does he really have to phrase it that way at the end? Bruno leans back even though Eagle stops on the very edge of his personal space, though he won't take any more steps away. ] When you put it... that way. You're. Yeah, you did. Though, um, just the tour is fine. You really don't have to go too out of the way, really!

[ Wait for it...
Okay. Time to stop torturing him (for now; alternatively, being in Eagle's presence is constant torture, so is it ever really over). Eagle takes a step back and gestures with a sweep of his arm for them to continue on. The distillery is paces away by then, so at least there'll be plenty to pay attention to once they step inside. ]

Alright. Let's go take a look.
[ And with that, they'll carry on towards where the distillery is kept. It certainly will offer an immediate distraction, since Bruno's face will immediately light up with curiosity and an interest to take a look at everything in there. He might be doing the research for someone else but the interest is real enough. ]
Oh, wow, these are much bigger than the ones from home.
[ He'll point that out first. Stills and piping made of copper and stone versus barrels and bamboo. One definitely works better than the other. ]
