ψIt was a definitely a long day for Antonius Xenophane, he had too many big projects that needed to be completed, but that was usually the case for the workaholic. There was a new building that needed some reconstruction and then there were was a chariot that still needed to be built.
The afternoon was warm with a cool breeze that kept blowing his hair onto his face; callous hands grabbed a long strand of red hair and tucked it behinds an ear. He walked next to his horse that pulled a cart filled with some of his tools and a few other miscellaneous items. Anton preferred to travel by horse but when the day was pleasant he enjoyed a good walk.
Anton hadn't eaten anything yet but fortunately a pistrina was along the way to his next destination. Gurgling-growls came from his stomach and even more as soon as delicious smells began to fill his nose.
He parked his horse outside of the shop and gave Artex a gentle pat on his head before he stepped inside. The pistrina was warm and the now strong aroma had officially awoken that beastly stomach of his. Apparently, the baker had just made a fresh batch of baked goods...and Anton was a total sucker for sourdough bread, "Two sourdough breads, please." He patted his stomach to quiet the beast but it didn't comply; a loud growl erupted as a retort. A few minutes later the baker returned with two warm breads. "Thank you, sir" he said politely and paid the man a little extra. The baker smiled and nodded as a thank you.
Stepping out he walked back towards his horse and gave him a piece of bread before gobbling the rest of the food. Anton stood there for a second but leaned to the side, his swords making a soft clank as he moved, as soon as he heard a noise coming from the back of his cart. Still leaning while slowly chewing a piece of bread, Anton could see a human figure doing something. A single eye brow was raised while frowning as he watched the stranger. Anton was curious to see what they would do, so he kept still & quiet...a friend or foe he will make today.
NOTES: AMG first crappy post down! Not sure if your character wants to try to steal something or just use his cart to sit down to rest...I know it sucks 8(. -crawls back to bed-

YOU ARE MY CANDY GIRL AND YOU'VE GOT ME WANTING YOU Business had been slow today, giving Varina ample time to space out without getting told off by her fierce - but esteemed, her mind added - mother. She had been looking forward to lunch break, when she could finally dash out and purchase her daily dose of bread from the bakery nearby. Giving a hurried shout of 'goodbye!' when it was time, Varina ran off eagerly, brushing past a large horse pulling a cart.
A few minutes later, sighing contentedly, she bit into the freshly baked panis adipatus. Dabbing the sides of her mouth with a cloth, Varina looked about in wonder at the passing crowds, admiring the different dress styles and strangely coloured hair. Still nibbling, she leaned back, almost falling over as she had misjudged the distance.
Embarrassed, she turned around quickly, hoping that nobody saw what happened. To her surprise, she was facing the back of the cart that had passed her earlier on. Tongue licking her lips to catch the tiny bits of bread crumbs, Varina's finger poked against a fallen scroll like a curious kitten. Satisfied that nothing monstrous would appear, she smiled and sat on the edge of the cart. It seemed to be a perfect place to take a quick nap... surely its owner would wake her up when he or she was back?
With a yawn, Varina started to lay back, stretching out one arm with a dreamy smile as her mind started concocting images of that person. A mysterious figure who could fly off from the ground whenever he wished, and danced with the spirits from far away...

ψA slightly annoyed sigh left his lips as he watched the girl fiddle around with his stuff, but he felt that the girl was no threat and so didn't do anything too aggressively brash. The girl then began to climb on top of the cart...but whatever for? Anton waited for a bit before walking quietly towards the back of the cart so as to see exactly what she planned to do. The girl must have been somewhat fatigued for she decided to lay down and close her eyes for a quick nap. Anton couldn't help but to smile at the sight of the sleeping girl. Her countenance appeared content as if she were having some sort of happy dream.
Anton wasn't sure what to say or do...he didn't want to startle the girl by waking her up, but he had things to do and places to go. He frowned again, if he woke up her up she might panic and start to think he was some sort of pervert trying take advantage by cupping a feel or something disgustingly gross like that. He really was horrible around the opposite sex since most of the time Anton didn't know how to act around them. He looked around helplessly in hopes of finding someone who would help him with this predicament. Anton would probably go as far as paying someone just to get her out of his cart...ugh, I'm so pathetic, so he thought. Anton mumbled a couple of bad slurs under his breath for being such a wuss...for god sakes the girl wasn't even awake and so was completely harmless, well at least she appeared to be that way at that moment.
Eyes began to look around his cart...perhaps he can poke her with something very long so as to keep a good distance from her...or maybe his sword? Wait, no. He was trying to wake her not stab her! Shaking his head over the ridiculous idea he kept on looking and glued his eyes on a piece of clean cloth. A good idea had finally popped up. He put down the rest of his bread on another piece of cloth and proceeded to grab the other. He jiggled his hands so that the cloth would tickle her nose...Anton prayed to the gods that this plan would work.
NOTES: +100 cool points for using Dark Precure! Lulz, thought I was the only one that used that FC. By the way, I have a couple of icons of her if you want them c:.

YOU ARE MY CANDY GIRL AND YOU'VE GOT ME WANTING YOU She was happiest when dreaming.
It was a place where anybody, even herself, could be somebody. She tread through the dream world with a smile that stayed with her as she drifted off into a deep sleep. Falling asleep in less than a second could be considered a talent unique to her. She could fall asleep anywhere too, including the back of the cart she was lying on now.
In her dream, Varina was walking in a garden filled with trees and plants that she was certain did not exist in Rome. There was an ethereal quality to the place she was at, urging her to walk as carefully as possible so that she would not disturb the peace. As she followed the path, Varina found herself being blocked by several willowy trees that tickled her nose. It was strange but somehow, no matter how much she tried to dodge, the trees' branches would always lower themselves to continue brushing her face.
"Mmm..." she murmured in her sleep, nose twitching at the thing touching her nose repeatedly. Her eyebrows scrunched up in a small frown as she turned her head towards the left. Her nose was still being tickled.
Odd. She could smell the scent of baked bread in her dream.
Another twitch. Then, with a grogginess that slowed her thought processes, Varina's eyes opened very slowly. She blinked at the sight of a cloth dancing before her, then reddish brown strands entered her vision.
"V-V-Venus!" she gasped abruptly, eyes widening in shock at the sight of delicate features framed by the bright hair. Another blink. "Oh..." her gaze had somehow travelled downwards - a flat chest - and she was sure that Venus had a substantial buxom to boast of... which means...
"I'm so sorry!" Varina bolted upright, hand flying to cover her mouth as she spoke hurriedly. "I should have ask... ask permission! No no, I should be sorry for sleeping here! I just ate and this looks so comfortable...but I called you 'Venus' when you are not! Ah! I don't mean to offend you, Venus is beautiful and so are you... ah, Father said men cannot be beautiful? But you are really pretty so I thought I was looking at a goddess but actually..."
Varina paused. Great. Now she had gone on and started rambling again, even telling the stranger that she had mistaken him for a goddess!
