[ it had been a joke. she had honestly meant it as a joke. but then one of her cases turns up a lead that requires her to bring a plus one to a soiree and she knows things just got a lot more interesting. not necessarily the good kind of interesting, but interesting.

well, likely also the good kind, since she's invited jim to go with her. better to have back-up she can trust with this.

so, after gifting him an outfit that will work for this soiree, and teaching him as much about how to pass for tevinter as possible, she takes him up to the soiree in question. dressed in her own tevinter finery, she arrives on jim's arm, ready to look the part of an altus with her companion. her nerves are on high alert as they descend into the crowd. time to see if they can find this clue.

having given jim a briefing on what they're looking for — a relic that seems to have changed hands multiple times and might be related to a recent murder — she knows they are as prepared as they can be. ]

We're looking for anything that could possibly lead us to our relic. Time to mingle and listen. Ready for it? Just remember what I taught you.

@the_other_dellamorte Tools of the Trade

It started with a comment the first time Jim had shown Illario around his quarters in the Lighthouse:

You have an alchemy kit for making Poisons, bello moi?

"They're likely not poisons the way You'd know them, though I've no doubt they'd fuck up or kill a living man if they got into it. I know how to make concoctions for eating away at Darkspawn flesh or locking up their joints so they can't fight as effectively. Aside from that kind of caustic mess I sometimes whip up to smear on my arrows or blades I don't really know much about the trade." That wasn't the kind of light footed sort Jim had trained to be. He knew his way around a set of lockpicks as well as any rogue. Better than most, even, since his days of joining the Wardens.

But a poison kit? He's always viewed it with a bit of discomfort. For a man who has always been a scout rather than an assassin, it's been the one tool of the trade he's neglected to learn as well as he perhaps ought to.

After all, there are so very many creative things one can make with a kit such as this. Things outside of a normal potion seller's purview....
