Thimb did not own many clothes. Well, that wasn't quite true. She owned lots of clothes, they were just almost all work clothes. Sturdy bland fabrics, resistant to fire and acid and their ilk. She had worn her best dress when she was first called to the fey tower- well, second best, her best was for things like weddings- and now found herself at a bit of a loss for what to wear to go meet Ka'Ri to go visit the smut peddler. It didn't really matter. That smut peddler had seen her on her way back from deliveries with Hamish sprawled out over her shoulder, both of them exhausted and dusty after hauling things about, but... she wanted to look nice. Eventually she realized she had spent too much time dithering over the blue or the green tunic, and grabbed the blue, since Hamish liked that one better.
She rushed off, hoping not to be late, and kicking herself for taking so long, Hamish flying beside her, unhurried or bothered. Their shape was usually somewhere between a rat and a large barn cat, but she wondered not for the first time if there was a way to expand that so she could ride them. If there was, the pair had yet to figure it out. Eventually they made it to the meeting point by the clock tower, Thimb doubling over, panting. Hamish perched on the stone ridge above her, looking around for Ka'Ri and being very easy to spot. They had decided to go less like a peacocks muted cousin today and looked more like someone had fluff dried the offspring of an owl, bunny, and dog, somewhere around the size of a kitten. Their tail wagged happily behind them. It did not occur to Hamish that Ka'Ri had only seen them in one form, but even if it had, it wasn't hard to figure out it was still Hamish.
