Tricking people was far more fun than being tricked... For once, the ghastly mage got a taste of her own medicine. Just as she jumped to grab the lizard, the swift little creature slipped away. Instead, she flopped against the ground with a soft thud.
“Oof, hey! Stay still!”
Quickly the trickster scrambled back onto her feet and continued running. As much as she hated to admit, she really needed a hand here. Not that she could really ask it outright... Besides, her guildie was clearly lacking energy here. Too bad nothing really motivated the grumpy creature.
Except...
When the client mentioned the main motivator, Kin’s lips curled into a mischievous, cat-like smile. “Hey Fluffy~!” Her playful tone chimed across the landscape, the kind of tone that never boded well for those hearing it. “If I catch that thing without your help, I’m taking your share of the pay too~!” She glanced over her shoulder, eager to see if that would put some pep into the raccoon.

"Excuse me, what?"
Well, it was clear Bandit was not about to let that happen. He was enjoying the whole experience. Perhaps a bit too much for the universe reached out and slapped him across the face in the form of Kin's existence in general. As much as he loved just running about aimlessly and watching others scramble about, he was not about to go through the trouble of talking his way into his fair share of the payment.
So he vanished. Literally vanished from the sheer speed he exhibited. Once anyone was able to seize sight of his form once more, he was already holding the struggling lizard in a relentless hug.
"Yes, finally! I shall name him... What shall I name him..." Helios asked after having caught up and come to a halt. Bandit's display did not phase him, but his success - that did.
"You're gonna name him? Wait, so this ain't for some potion or leather armour or somethin'. It's... you wanna pet?"
Helios nodded with a stale, emotionless expression. Bandit had nothing to say in response. He sighed and as the thing kept wiggling, grew more agitated.
"Well tame it or take it or somethin'! I'm not holdin' this thing all day!"

Kin could hardly contain the devilish grin creeping onto her features. Hook, line and sinker~! Even if Bandit was always so mysterious about himself, one fact was clear... He was in this game for profit and not for fun. And that made her job easy~!
Much to the trickster’s surprise, the guildmate dashed like the wind. Wow, he must’ve really loved his money... Well, she wasn’t complaining. Jogging over, she stopped to admire the wriggly creature. “Aw, it looks so cute~!” In... a weird, slick, lizardy way... Furry creatures were way cuter, buuut she could see why someone would want such a feisty pet.
Leaving the grumpy raccoon to deal with the lizard, the ghastly mage moved to the client’s side. She was... uh... personal protection. Yeah, sure. “Sooo, whatcha gonna name it? Something fancy like Sir Sal' Mander?” Oh, she had no intention to actually help. Judging by the way it struggled, an extra pair of hands trying to hold it would just be a target for those tiny teeth...

"Hitokage."
Helios replied with such quickness, it nigh interrupted Kin. As he did, he seized the creature under the arms with an outstretched pair of hands. He plucked him away and simply looked at it. The look possessed a gravity smothering and unrelenting in the hatred it wafted down at the salamander. Instantly, it stopped resisting.
"...Welp!" Bandit started as the creature was taken from him. "That's that, I guess. So, all that's left is some payment and we're done here!" Bandit clasped his hand together and - well, he did not waste time in paying them exactly what each expected - realistically, anyway.
"...Huh. Thought... nevermind." Whatever Bandit was about to say, he decided against it. Then he ran off - really fast. There was nothing holding him there anymore and he wasn't about to stick around longer with the trickster.

The ghastly mage quirked a brow at the name. “Nyeh, a pompous name for a pompous pet~” She still thought a cutesy creature deserved a cutesy name, buuuut... Snobs never had any taste. What else was new?
When it came to money, Kin wasted no time snatching her share. Her mouth watered at the mere thought of all the tasty snacks she could buy with this. Goodbye porridge and dry bread! At least for a couple of... days.
Before the trickster could turn her undivided attention onto the raccoon, the furry guildie made the smart choice and bolted. Her stare narrowed and smile sharpened. “Wow, rude~” It was spoken with a playful chime. With a faint shimmer, her form vanished into thin air, off to more mischief. All on her own. Southern Wolves rarely spent time together beyond missions...
And she was fine with that.
((Exit Kin stage left. Thanks for the fun thread!))
