(Hey there, I hope it's cool I join you!)
1. Both mun and muse are as legal as can be
2. just let me know where you want to go with this one~
3. I am 100% a-okay with smut and nsfw. Tagging I can and will
4. Quite the same as 3. I am not a biggy on gore, but blood and some wounds here and there I can live with!
5. I guess you can call my style paragraphs/novella. It all depends on the inspiration. I get rather easily bored with short replied of just 1 or 2 sentences..
6. Feel free to kick my ass back into shape of replying, I am lazy sometimes and then I just don't wanna. So feel free to PM me!
Let get to the fun stuff shall we~
Ty had about just enough of today, she had found multiple dead animals in the woods, but no trace of hunters. The deer and rabbits had all been killed by a gun, but she couldn't figure out what kind and there was no trace to be found. Stomping around in a random direction the faun let out a frustrated groan and she scratched the curls underneath her hood, they were a mess and a shower was needed. "Ugh this is horrible.." he sighed and she held the axe in her hand, freeze marks adorning the metal and she slowly traced it, before getting snapped out of her musings
A soft "Baa" filled the air and Ty whipped her head around to see where the strange noise was coming from. Sure she knew it had to be some kind of sheep or goat, hell she was half one herself. No it was strange to have one in the woods like this. Looking on the ground, she found some trails and she slowly started to track them, noticing the noises got louder her hidden eyes looked up and she saw a whole flock of strangely looking sheep. "What the.." she said softly. Suddenly Ty spotted a stranger standing by a small building and she held her axe tightly. "Hello?" she carefully asked, not fully sure who this person was and what was up with these strange sheep.
Her eyes fell on the robes though and she cocked her head in confusion, another one of the cult? She hadn't seen this one around often, she wondered what this one was like. It was often hectic in the shop as some of the cult member kept on fighting, but luckily it was always easily resolved, a gift here, some good words there and boom, all was fine again. But stranger, she hadn't had the chance yet to observe him.

((Mun and muse are both legal. Smut is fine, though I'm not sure how that's gonna work since Dietrich is literally just a bird. I'm fine with everything in rule 4. Feel free to poke me if I forget about this))
The smell of smoke gently wafted into the room, followed by a faint crackling and the sound of wings fluttering. After a bit more fluttering, tiny talons could be felt perching on Jinx's left shoulder. The weight of the little feet shifted a little before settling.
"Hi there!" a small voice said right in his ear. Dietrich adjusted his hood and began to preen his primary feathers as he spoke around a beak full of feathers. "How's it going? The name's Dietrich." He took a flourishing bow as he introduced himself (even though he had heard that his companion was blind and thus couldn't see his gesture). "You're the beast keeper, right? Jinx? I've heard about you before, but we haven't met. So here I am to introduce myself!"
Dietrich hopped up on top of Jinx's head and continued to chatter. "I'm sort of a beast, right? I wonder if that means you're supposed to be in charge of me?" he mused. "I hope not. I mean, nothing against you! I just don't wanna be lumped in with a bunch of..." he looked around, "sheep and stuff. I'm perfectly sapient after all." He fluffed out his feathers as if to punctuate his statement, wondering if he was making a good first impression on this new friend.
Just then, his eye caught another figure. "AH! I didn't see you there! How rude of me! I'm Dietrich. And you are?" he blurted, cocking his head to the side curiously.

Ty was careful to approach the strange rabbit person. Though before she knew it she ducked away as she was almost swat by a black bird and she glared a bit from underneath her hood. Holding the ax a bit tighter in her hand she slowly approached the duo, the leaves on the ground cracking with ice as she took careful steps closer. Air escaped her lips in small clouds of cold air. It always surprised her people didn't notice the temperature difference she brought along with her. But she thought it was fine, it only helped with the element of surprised. She made sure not to touch the sheep and continued to observe the bird and the strange rabbit person.
Not fully trusting the situation Ty remained close to the trees, observing the two interact, catching small parts of their conversation. Ty wasn't really the type to jump into the conversation, watching and listening was what she did best. And in this case it was best to remain cautious, it could very well be that one of the were responsible for the animal deaths in the woods. Even though these two wore some of the robes of the cult, she knew well enough that not everyone in the cult could be trusted. Best was to just see and wait.
Gently Ty leaned against a tree, her cold seeping into the wood, the tree would live. She observed the two together, they didn't know each other and she caught their names, Jinx and Dietrich.. "Hmm..." she hummed softly and she got closer, gently avoiding the sheep and she stopped when the bird noticed her again. She saw Jinx jump up and she raised her free hand and she stored her ax away on her back "Woah.. Calm down, I don't mean harm. My name is Ty." she introduced herself and cocked her head to the side. "You.. Jinx was it? You are blind aren't you..?" she asked carefully. She didn't want to seem rude for pointing it out, but she was simply observing now. "Dietrich, you should be careful when you pop out like that, you almost hit my horns, You wouldn't want that" she said with a slight huff. She then looked at Jinx again who still seemed rather stressed. "I hope I didn't startle you too bad." Ty quietly apologized.

"Sorry, sorry!" Dietrich chirped, looking a bit sheepish about his carelessness.
"Ty... that's a nice name! It's good to meet you, Ty. Say, is that short for something?" He chattered. He hopped into the air and flew over to Ty, but stopped inches away, just before perching on her. Instead, he shivered and flew back in Jinx's direction to rest on his shoulder again.
"Jeeze, why are you so freakin' cold?" he half asked- half complained, "I mean, you're practically an ice cube! Are you okay? I'm guessing it's a magic thing?" He fluffed out his feathers again, as if protecting himself against the chill this time, and adjusted his hood to cover more of his little head.
In a nearby tree, two blue jays began to chirp back and forth to each other in a lively manner, distracting Dietrich from any response to his onslaught of questions he might receive from Ty. He turned to look at the tree intently, shifting his weight a little as he did. He loved to listen in on conversations that weren't meant for him even more than he loved gossiping. He hopped up onto Jinx's head once more to try and get a look at the birds in question as he eavesdropped, wrapped up in the birds' exchange and leaving Ty and Jinx to their own conversation for a moment.

(sorry for taking longer ;u;)
Making contact with Dietrich she gave him a nod. “Like wise Dietrich” she smoothly answered and shrugged slightly. “It is short for something, but just call me Ty, I like it better” she said and rubbed her exposed arm. She wasn’t very sure how interact with the talkative bird. There were so many questions being fired at her, it was hard to not focus on him.
From the corner of her eye she saw the bird come closer and she flinched when he came to close. Her look a bit darker at the remark. “yeah.. It’s magic, sorry about that” she said and adjusted the hood on her head, so it fully covered her head and her horns flared up in the slightest of ways. Dietrich did seem a bit rude, but she brushed it off and decided to focus on Jinx. “I do apologize if it’s too cold for you Jinx. I still need to get the hang of adjusting my flames to the temperature around me.” Ty admitted softly. Her eyes fell on the nervous wringing of hands around the staff and she cocked her head. “Are you alright? You.. seem worried.” she assured.
As Jinx explained himself Tyronica hummed in understanding. “I understand, I was around in the area and I heard some of your.. sheep? I have been finding more dead animals than normal…” she continued and then narrowed her eyes at Dietrich and Jinx “You two don’t by any chance know more about this, do you?” she asked, her tone collected. She didn’t trust them just yet, even though Jinx seemed to be close to a nervous breakdown and Dietrich seemed much too distracted to be able to pull of the kills. But she has seen weirder things. There was one thing she knew and that was that the members of the cult were weird, herself included. “I have a suspicion there might be hunters..” she continued, scanning their expression for any sign of guilt.

Dietrich's attention was brought back to the conversation at hand when he heard the word "hunters." Being hunted was always a concern for a tiny bird like himself. He gulped nervously as he listened to Jinx and Ty discuss it, catching Ty's suspicious gaze for a moment before hurriedly looking away. He could tell when someone disliked him. Had he made that poor of a first impression, or did his reputation precede him?
He got lost in though momentarily, thinking about what his reputation must even be like, before the howling of a hound snapped him back to reality. His feathers stood on end and he jumped in fright, almost losing balance. Another howl came from a different direction, making him shudder. There were too many predatory, potentially bird-eating animals around here for his liking.
"Well unless the dead animals in question are insects, it probably wasn't me. I'm not much of a fighter," he said, holding up his wings innocently. "besides, I hardly ever come to this neck of the woods anyway. I prefer to stick around headquarters where it's safe."
He wondered silently to himself if there was anything he could even do to help in a situation like this. As he had said, he wasn't good at fighting. He was just a message courier and errand boy. He supposed he could get the word out to higher ups that there might be a hunter, but how much good would that actually do? Ty seemed like the type to want to keep this operation small, after all.

Ty's green eyes remained on both Jinx and Dietrich. They didn't show any sign of guilt. Even the nervousness Jinx was showing a moment melted away to make place for anger and Ty raised a brow. Her stature relaxed. Slowly she walked closer to Jinx and gently pat his shoulder. Ty made sure not make her touch too cold. It was rather hard to be around people when you are this cold. "Calm down Jinx. I am not even sure if it are poachers.." Ty said and then looked up at Dietrich who seemed sunken in thought. She would let him be for now. "I haven't been able to find any good tracks that indicate if it were humans or if it was some kind of .. monster attacking them."
Ty disliked using the word, but with the shape she had found the animals, she wasn't sure what attacked the animals. But she would save though images from the others. "Up till now I have found some dead rabbits, some birds, a couple of deer.. and even.." She paused for a moment and the light lit underneath her hood, showing her worried expression. "I have found a bear.." she admitted. The animal had been humongous, but the fact that it was littered in wounds and gashes, bigger than she had ever seen, it had scared her.
Her horns flared up for a moment when the hounds howled and her eyes grew worried. She wasn't too fond of the canines.. Made her think too much of hunting dogs. The sudden offer of help took Ty aback. "U-Uhm.. " suddenly she could feel herself turning a bit flustered. Sure she could handle a conversation with people, but working together wasn't her strongest suit. But Jinx seemed alright, he appeared to have his heart on the right place. "I-I can always use some help" Ty said and offered a bit of a smile. "I am alright at tracking humans.. But as I said.. I have no clue what it is that is killing these animals." Raising her hand and holding her chin she looked at the hounds. "No offense but, can they be trusted? I mean they won't attack other animals right?" she asked and she looked at the hounds with a slight distrust and the faun received a growl back.
In the meanwhile her eyes went to yet-black bird. "Dietrich, you seem to be quite well informed, I know you aren't around this area often, but have you heard anything about the animals?" Ty asked, her horns emitted a soft blue light, and her lips were formed in a soft smile. She had been a bit rude to the bird. "It would be handy to have you with us." she offered.
On the inside Ty wasn't sure if it would be a good idea, but she was stumped and all the help would be welcome, even if it meant that she had to get out of her comfort zone.

"I'd love to help!" the blackbird chirped enthusiastically. Finally, something exciting to do!
He thought to himself for a moment before answering Ty's question, trying to remember if he had heard anything in particular about dead animals or beasts or hunting recently.
"This is the first I'm hearing about these animals you're talking about, but I heard some gossip the other day about cult members being lured into the forest and disappearing for a day or two. Word was that they got eaten by some awful beast, but then apparently they showed back up without any memory of what happened while they were missing. That's what I hear anyway," he shrugged, "I don't know how they're supposed to have been eaten and then came back to life. Rumor's still going around though." He paused again, hoping something else might come to mind.
"I've also heard some murmurings fairly recently about some important monster that escaped, then got contained again. Or was it that it got contained and then escaped? Jeez, I don't remember. I hear so much gossip around HQ. There's always things escaping or getting captured or what have you. I also heard something about the cult being "guilty of harboring a monster," whatever that's supposed to mean. Harboring like 'he's in our midst and acting as one of us,' harboring?"
Dietrich sighed, trying to recall more conversations he had overheard, but he gossiped and eavesdropped so much that any rumors he wasn't particularly interested in sort of blended together and were forgotten. "I dunno... I dunno," he shook his head, "I'll let you know if I remember anything else."
"Could you tell us a little more about the bodies you found?" He asked, hoping some clues might bring more relevant gossip to mind. "Were they just dead, or were they mutilated or eaten from? Did it look like it could have been something ritual related, or was it just senseless killing? Sorry-" He paused, shaking his head again and readjusting his wings, "I'm asking too many questions all at once again. My bad."
Talking too much again, Dietrich, he thought to himself.
