[closed] january quest times

Who: Aloy, Michael
When: questy times
Where: Solvunn, Secondary Settlement
What: ...questy times
Warnings: this big shark that has its mouth open all the time

[Some (but not all) of the reason why Aloy has decided to take up residence outside of the settlements is a not-so-subtle excuse to avoid farm chores. She’s a hunter and survivalist, not a gardener, and she’d much rather spend her time defending civilians from monsters or otherwise exploring the surrounding wilderness. That said, she’s a curious person by nature, and when she hears about the shark, she knows she has to go see it for herself. The only creatures she’s ever seen of this size are particularly deadly machines, and those aren’t really creatures at all.

So the shark is impressive, yes. Getting roped into chores while she’s trying to get a look at the thing, not so much. Still, she’s as incorrigibly helpful as she is curious. If there’s a task to be done, and she can expedite it in any way, Aloy will do it.

Even if it’s greasing up vines (???). Even if it’s gathering up unfortunate sea creatures and tossing them back into the water. She figures the latter is more suited to her talents (lifting heavy things). It does not, however, leave her arms free for much else.

Hey! [Aloy doesn’t particularly care whose attention she gets—the nearest person to her will do. There’s a pile of detritus currently impeding her path, but she quite literally has her hands full with some kind of spiny-looking fish that seems much to large for someone of her size to be carrying comfortably.] You want to get that out of the way for me?

[She’s a little busy with this fish, thanks.]
