Surprisingly from it outside appearance, this is a hatefield, tavern that tends to have some of the best hunters and huntresses around while at the same time is a center point of the prejudice against Faunus. Faunus tend stay away as not only are they pretty much not served here, there are trophies of previous faunus who have entered. Some say they are alive with no animal traits left because it was taken by the bar man in the tavern. Others believe they didn't make it out alive and the trophies on the wall are remains. Only few people know the truth. All are welcome, unless you are a faunus . Then.....enter at your own risk.

With some more discussion the four came to an agreement on making a team, or at least making a temporary one to test it out. The day having been a long one, they agreed to meet up at the Rated R tavern for a mission they had selected the previous day. It seemed Reseda was the first of the three to arrive. Keeping outside of the tavern she couldn't help but notice a big fat 'NO FAUNUS' sign. Of all the missions to pick, they just had to have selected the one that required them to go somewhere that outright admitted they didn't want any of her kind. Although she was not ashamed of what she was, she didn't want to put the team at risk and did what was necessary to hide her tail. Fortunately it wouldn't take much as her cape already covered most of it, all she did was readjust it a bit so it was not as lax as before, in other words, the material was not being allowed to flap about and reveal her tail.
Yukira remembered something about something and the Tavern. Other than that she had no idea as she just wanted to sleep, And repair her clothes… That would've been helpful but she had only patched them somewhat. Least her weapon was still functioning. As she approached the Tavern she had been lead to by a few of the locals. She noticed a No Faunus sign on the door. While yukira herself wasn't a faunus. Found that they had cute ears, well a lot of them. Or cute attributes. So she never understood the dislike towards them. Ok there was the bad faunus but there were even worse humans. Anyway she yawned as she stumbled into the area fully, looking at the woman from yesterday. Slightly confused as she seemed different somehow. ”hello.. Something something.. “ And out came a new yawn.

Things had somehow worked themselves out where they at least had a verbal agreement to form a team. If it didn't work out, that wouldn't be the worst thing, but he didn't want his forcing himself onto a team to be in vain. A little chaos never hurt anybody. As Hayate approached the tavern, it was easy to note the "No FAUNAS" sign for all to see. At least they knew what they didn't like and gave a fair warning to any risk taking faunas. His eye shifted toward Reseda as it seemed they were about to take that risk. This might turn out interestingly. He was all for this kind of situation, but he was mostly just glad they didn't decide on the mission to Atlas. Going back to that place seemed like it would be a real pain in the a**. No matter the case, he made his way over to Reseda before speaking. "Not bad, though, I'm not opposed to punching someone for a teammates sake, if it comes to that." They really hadn't had time to get to know each other, but that was just something you did for a teammate. It appeared to him that her disguise would hold up though, so there might not be fireworks.
His attention turned toward Yukira, hopefully the fourth member of the team. She looked the same, in need of repairs. At least her outward appearance proved that she had combat experience. Hayate was glad to see that, instead of her looking unscathed. "If this mission goes well, you really should make things official." He couldn't help, but grin at hearing his own words. There he was, being bold, not that he needed to, but it had worked out before. Hayate didn't need to say anything more, she had shown up to the tavern after all. "All we're missing is our fearless leader." It hadn't been discussed, but he didn't want to be the leader and Hades seemed like he couldn't handle the job. At least by throwing it out there, it could be discussed further. ✐✐✐
OOC: Figured by now that our characters would at least know names. Can skip introductions that way too.
. ""Punching should be super easy. However, much disdain as I have for the situation. I believe we should play it cool as we can. I don't really like the fact of risking getting Reseda in trouble in case things go south. At the same time though. I kind of really want to just bust in there and let it all hang out. Not worry and if they come they all shall fall." Hades stated, sitting in a tree nearby as he looked down at the other 3. Fearless leader? He wasn't a leader at all. Who was going to be the leader? Decided later probably. Looking at the woman, he would look at the newest member. Maybe. He couldn't really remember much sadly. Hopping down, he would look towards all three before looking at the Tavern. The No Faunus sign was concerning. He knew one thing though. This wasn't going to end well. No matter how they try and handle the situation. Looking, he would look up at the top of the Tavern. "Hayate, you three will head inside and see if can get the information. I'm going to be around in the shadows. In case...things get bad" he explained Hopefully everyone would agree. Maybe they won't. who knows.

Hades as team leader? The thought amused the goat faunus as, being the one who technically knew him the longest, leading didn't seem to be his thing. At least not in an obvious matter. Her thoughts did not remain long on the matter, for she didn't mind either way. The most important thing was that they all managed to work together. Though, they seemed overly concerned about her. With a soft smile she turned to them all. "Whatever happens happens. I'm not worried. I've handled similar before. This is just a precaution but if it comes down to it I'm sure we can handle it." She was of course talking about the people in the place finding out she was a faunus. It seemed their 'fearless leader' was of the same thought as she. He also ended up truly taking charge and ordering the three of them to do the 'dirty' work.
Nodding Reseda was the first to walk inside despite her 'condition'. The moment she entered she had to take a moment as this was not a place she had ever really entered before. The smell of booze was strong in the air but her interest was on the hunters and huntresses around. Hades wanted them to gather information, so it was what they were going to do. Giving a quick look towards the other two she indicated it was best to divide and conquer. Making her way towards the back Reseda began to ask her questions.
"Excuse me, I'm from MEIS. I'm here to investigate the odd wea...." Before Reseda could even finish the hunter she was talking too grunted out quite annoyed. 'Buzz off and go back to playing with your dolls girl.'
Well, he sure wasn't going to say something. Hopefully the other two were finding someone more empathetic.
Yukira exhaled slowly as hayate turned up. Her attention seemed to drift towards him for just a second as he spoke. ”Before that.. I am sleeping a day.. Or a night.. In a warm place.. With .. my weapon and no threat of grim eating my rear please…” .. Her hair blew a little in the wind before she shook her hair, her left hand moving up and pulling on her own clothing a little to readjust it. Then the ‘fearless leader’ turned up mentioning something about reseda being found out as a faunus and how those three should head in. That caused her to raise a eyebrow a little “ wouldn't it make more sense for her to stay out here and stand guard? But ok.. Of course this was acciented with a small yawn. Least before she followed reseda inside the tavern.
It wasn't long before someone told her to buzz off and play with her dolls. That made her chuckle a little bit. Though yukira moved to sit at the bar itself. Least before she popped her head against it. Even groaning a little as she did. All she wanted was a drink. In Fact that's all she asked for. “ Water.. please..” she muttered before resting her head on the bar top. A slight groan coming from her as she just let her dirty messed up hair cascade onto the bartop. Of course this was useless in gathering information. But it felt good at least. yada yada yada… anyone know stuff about the odd weather patterns. Insert i want sleep here Her left hand raised a little and drew small circles in the air. She was acting almost like she was already drunk. Just without the slurred speech. Maybe it was the tiredness

His attention turned to the tree where he heard Hades speak. He hadn't expected that, which is why he didn't notice before. Perception was sort of his thing, but clearly he still needed some work on it. From all his writing, he learned that the smallest details were important. This guy, he was interesting and he'd make sure to look for him on a high perch in the future. "I guess we'll save any excitement for if things turn sour then." If Hades didn't want to be called the leader, he sure didn't deny it with words. No matter the case, even if it was just in name, things would work out. Hayate chuckled a bit at hearing his next words and then nodded. It would be interesting to see if his taking charge was just a one time thing, but for now, he was amused. "Sounds like a plan. Don't take your time or there might not be anyone left for you to take on." Hayate said, before pausing and then added. "If things hit the fan that is."
Looking back over toward Reseda, it seemed as though they might have been a bit more concerned than needed. "Then for your sake, I won't worry either. Just make sure to duck if I say something along those lines." There of course was a reason behind his words, perhaps a clue on his semblance that could come in handy. It wasn't fun to just come out and say it, but this was their first mission, they'd find out soon enough. His eyes shifted toward Yukira as he grinned at hearing her words. "I wonder if that's truly possible anymore. It's a fantastic thought though or is it just a dream?" Was it too soon for him to talk to her in such a way, perhaps. He wasn't sure, but oh well, worrying about those details wasn't something he was interested in.
With that out of the way, it was time for the trio to head inside. Reseda first and then Yukira, followed by the best for last. Hayate stopped for a moment near the doorway and watched. Overhearing Reseda getting nowhere and Yukira clearly wanting a nice long nap, it was up to him. Looking around at the patrons and quite a few articles of anti-faunus memorabilia, nothing seemed out of sorts. It did say this would be difficult, but what was the part about bait the mission refereed to? Nah, he couldn't figure it out from such limited information. It was time do what he did best, become a people person, even if it wasn't taken that way. Moving toward a table that appeared to have a heated game of "Remnant: The Game" going. Hayate thought it was interesting that adults would play something like that in a tavern. No wait, good for them. That didn't matter, but it seemed like a random place to start. "I guess it make sense that your playing kids games indoors." Despite his comment, he only received a few death glares, though for the most part, he was ignored. Oh, they're gonna play it that way? Hayate smirked a bit as he pulled up a chair, but spun it around and sat down on it backwards. "It makes sense, this terrible cold weather is quite the pain in the a** after all." Finally, he got a reply which was the idea. 'Not as much of a pain in the a** as you're being, brat.' Needless to say, information gathering was hard. ✐✐✐
OOC: Couldn't resist mentioning the card game from the series. lol
Hades watched on and nothing was getting done at the time.They were tryin, but what could possibly bring out the information they were seaking. Looking around from above, no one stuk out. It wasn't like a video game, the person of interest wasn't so obvious. Well s**t, what now? He knew one thing. Reseda wasn't going to take long before a tick happens and she goes and headbutts someone. Either way, he would continue looking. Little did he know, the person who had the information was already spotting them all. This person was quietly in the ackground, just waiting and just trying to see if he would be spotted. He also could smell it...Something was going to combust soon.

It would seem that her companions were having just as much luck as her as getting information out of the people here. What was the point of a mission if no one was going to talk so they could go about it? Taking in a silent breath of frustration Reseda made her way towards Hayate just in time to overhear the latest guy call him, well them, annoying. Sick of the people here acting like overgrown babies she instinctively grabbed the man by the shirt, pulling him forward quick aggressively and with a loud crack their foreheads met. ”TALK NOW!” Left dazzed and out of breathe the man looked as if he were counting stars. “Ug.. the… its…” It seemed he was trying to say something but as usual she overdid it on the headbutting. Unfortunately that would not be the only thing to have gotten over done.
“SHE’S A FAUNUS”
A random voice yelled out in the tavern causing all the huntsman and huntresses to quickly stand up in their seats weapons drawn. Looking behind her she noticed that her little tail disguise was out of place. It would appear that her aggressive headbutt had ended up dislodging it. As she grabbed her dual blades she gave Yukira and Hayate a look of ‘oops’. It was time for the fun to begin. Perhaps now people would finally begin to talk, or at least get easily forced into it. Knowing one of Hades weapons was a type of gun Reseda slowly moved to position herself clearly in front of the windows. This way if Hades wished he could shoot at those near her from outside without needing to come in, hopefully giving them a slight advantage.
[P O S T] Yukira had received her glass of water. Though she had already placed her head onto the bartop and even let her breathing die right down. Though she was still awake… Somewhat. She was more listening to everything going on around her, Of course it allowed her to rest … somewhat. It didn't take long before he heard a semi familiar voice from Hayate talking about playing kids games indoors along with the cold weather. Though her own ‘questioning’ hasn't done much it had tied her to part of the group that entered. It had not taken long and a few seconds after that she was slowly drifting off. Though a large stomach and someone shouting about a faunus had made Yukira dreerly lift her head and look over. Of course the one she thought would expose the faunus nature managed to. Though judging from one person's reaction she headbutted them. Yukiras response was a groan and a look towards the barkeeper. ” Don't get hurt this seems like a good drinking hole Is all she muttered before pushing away from the bar. Her left hand moving to her shield on her back before removing it. She didn't go for her sword yet as it could still be resolved as just a ‘bar’ squabble couldn't it?. Though... the fact everyone had their weapons drawn already made Yukira sigh and draw her own sword. Along with taking a defensive stance by the bar itself

Hayate was just about to make his own response, but it appeared that Reseda was more frustrated than anybody. He hadn't expected it, but he was interested to see what she was going to do. Watching as she headbutted the man aggressively in the forehead made him chuckle a bit. Reseda really would make a great character to write about, this scene would help that along. Despite her efforts, the man was clearly unable to talk, even if he had. His eyes moved toward Reseda's tail as the disguise failed at the worst possible time. Hearing the voice yell out about her being a Faunus and the huntresses and huntsmen drawing their weapons, Reseda had been found out. The situation didn't seem that great, but Hayate wasn't the type to panic as he grinned while looking toward Reseda. "Totally busted, guess we can't be too surprised." His eyes followed her movements and seeing her close to the window helped remind him about their fourth member outside. This helped Hayate determine what it was he needed to do, put his unique personality on the line and give Hades the time to figure out what he should do.
Hayate smirked a bit to himself and slowly pushed himself back up to his feet. He moved himself deliberately into the middle of the tavern, glancing toward Yukira, seeing that she was ready to help out if needed. He made no attempt to reach for his weapon, which hopefully would make these veteran huntsman and huntresses think his semblance was stronger than it was. No matter the case, he began to speak, it wasn't hard for them to hear him since there wasn't much of a sound. "A huge sign saying faunus aren't allowed? You really think nobody would take that risk? It's foolish right? Though the reason were here isn't foolish. A simple mission, one that we're looking for information on." There was a bit of a grin on his face as he was clearly enjoying being the center of attention. This was just too much fun. "If you would be so kind as to give us what we want, we'll be happy to leave. Not that any of this really matters, at this rate, the grimm will be the death of all of us. Human or Faunus, we're all in the same boat." His eye shifted toward Reseda for a moment as he wanted to see if what he said had any kind of reaction. Either way, he wanted to finish his speech. "All the hatred this place has for faunus, isn't that the kind of thing that draws the attention of grimm?" This certainly had to be controversial, but that was the plan. This might be the only way they could get the information they were seeking. If that wasn't the case, then at least it was a distraction. ✐✐✐
OOC: I had fun with this post. Hayate amuses me so much.
They were right. Hades was still there and they would gladly be within his aid of help, but that was a problem. Along with the fact, they thought some kids, coming into the tavern wasn't suspicious enough. This was a place that killed many faunus before them. They smell , eat, breath, and can taste one in any presence. "Don't you think the whole gang should be here?" a voice would ring as the sound of glass being busted out song with a hard rumble of thuds would be heard as well. Hades would appear before them, wounded, but okay. Who threw him inside the area? Someone not important, but still someone who hated faunus none the less. Coming inside the window, how about that. The hunter would appear before the kids with his bird standing proudly on his shoulder. "i ALWAYS KNEW SOME TROUBLE MAKERS WOULD COME HERE. but. I never thought......someone would be so stupid bring a faunus here on their own free will. Takes guts. I respect that... The faunus, such dirty little creatures, but I'll make you a deal. I won't even harm the girl. I just want her tail. Make her look a little normal. Chop off that fur ball of an a** she got.. I'm in a good mood. It's not been cold of s**t right now. I actually enjoy jack frost keeping his frosty a** away from Mistral.. " He continued. Taking a drag from a cancer stick, he would flick some of the residue to the floor. He heard everything. Especially the little kid's notion. Looking at Hayate, he suspected that was the leader. This boy? Looking at him, he would spit in his direction. "Idiot. A simple mission? From those MEIS people who swore to protect this town? Yet we been doing all the hard work. Oh my, it's worse than I thought. Hatred is one thing, but with no faunus to give off the feeling of despair. We are fine" he explained. They did have grimm that come around time from time but a tavern full of experienced hunters, it always turned out to be a game. Now if a whole group of faunus came, then that..that would cause issues. Gladly, there was only one there for now and she didn't seem scared. She just headbutted a dude!! Smiling, he would then point his wrist at Hayate. "Take your team. Leave this place. Nothing for you here. No need for this to get ugly. Got it? and also tell the drunk b***h stop stealing our drinks!"
Things sure ended up taking an interesting turn. Although ready for a fight and for Hades to bring in support, things turned out quite differently. Reseda blinked with a mix of confusion and surprise as Hades body was dropped down on the tavern floor. She had only fought alongside him once before, but the boy had seemed to be one who could handle his own so she couldn’t help but wonder what kind of man that took him out was. Reseda wanted to think the element of surprise had something to do with it. Was Hades as injured as he was appearing? Perhaps he was playing along to help conserve some strength instead of wasting it fighting off the guy?
As the male with the bird spoke the goat faunus spent most of it practically ignoring most of what he had to say, instead her focus was on that pet of his. If he was a decent owner he would have some form of concern for the birds well-being, which could be leverage for them if only they had the creature. Fortunately, that was just a minor issue and a very solvable one for Reseda. Although she would prefer to have her weapon in its flute form, she knew she could still use her semblance’s effects with her blades. Gently she tapped both of her blades together in what would appear was just a random tick, which quite frankly it sort of was, though the vibrations of sound would have a completely different meaning and effect for bird. Animals were far easier to manipulate than grimm and she was certain that it would only require a few seconds for it to begin following her commands.
When he made mention of her tail and it being sliced off she shot him a dark glare but kept her emotions in check as to not influence the birds actions sooner than she wished.
As he kept his little speech up, her hold on her weapons hilts only strengthened as she braced herself to be ready to strike at any moment. If these people truly knew something it did not seem like they were going to openly talked, especially not with the comment he just made. The more he opened his mouth the more impatient she was beginning to feel, but still she waited to create the most opportune moment possible for her and her teammates.
Reseda decided to make her move just as the man shifted attention to the other female in the group. Just as he finished his phrase, his bird began to flail wildly on his shoulder, pecking at its own owner’s eyes what would seem like nowhere. But it wasn’t, it was all in accordance to her wishes as she now had a hold on the creature’s actions.
As expected the other hunters in the tavern began to respond within a seconds of the birds wild actions. Some just stared at the situation with a dumb look on their face, while others jumped from their seats to attack the group. One particular attacker decided to go for Reseda, a mistake on his part. With a swift twist of her body she easily made it out of his enraged attack and quickly counterattacked with a few carefully selected strikes, causing the most amount of damage and immobility with the aid of electric dust. Hopefully it would prove enough to paralyze him long enough for them to finish off the rest of the sad bunch.
