Zeinav city was one of Korsur's favourite travel destinations, despite the intense heat and his dark manner of dress making him feel hotter than he needs to. It was a beautiful cultured city full of pleasant music and decadent food with parties and festivals at nearly every corner. Korsur was no energetic man, but he felt comforted by the city's high spirits.
Having recently unboarded a ship at the docks, Korsur strolls nonchalantly toward the market stalls and peruses the various wares for sale. Many of these items had evidently been acquired by illegal means, judging by the secrecy of some vendors, though that never deterred the elf from such pleasentries.
Past the stalls lay a plaza of more festivities. Fantastic music graced everyone's ears while the dancers decorated the space with their flawless moves. Right then, a caterer approached Korsur showing him a selection of wines to choose from. He handed the man enough currency to cover the costs of his purchase, to which the caterer responded with grateful nods as he poured the decadent wine into his glass. What quality service for a man of his station.
Nowhere in Charon could he find such a marvelous place as this. Nothing could get in the way of Korsur's good mood; not even the slight tremors occurring every so often, which didn't seem to alarm anybody at that moment.

Percival grinned with a smile, dressed in light and semi revealing clothes enjoying the sun grazing his skin as he watched the dancers winking at a few as they passed, his tail swaying gently behind him as his gaze swept the area. He noticed the man clad in dark clothes and raised a brow seeing him getting quite the service as well. Percival was certainly intrigued as he walked over, hips swaying as he did so "Well hello there, enjoying the show handsome?" he asked as he looked the other over with his typical flirty gaze
"With heat like this you can't be comfortable in so many layers, I'm sure I could assist you in removing some of those so you can cool off" he remarked with a wink and a grin as he awaited the others reply, the male was a strange mix of human and tiefling which often got him some curious looks here and there but he didnt mind in the least. His gaze never left the sun elf as he spoke to him awaiting to hear what kind of reply he may get from the man. Even if it was no he could just brush it off after all

Korsur was quite shocked to see this very flirtatious individual approach him and then utter those audacious words. He was unused to such bold advances, since the sun elf usually keeps to himself.
"H- Have you lost your senses?" Korsur declared, but only after stammering at the start. It seems the question could be directed toward himself as well, for his face began to redden ever so slightly. Korsur never broke eye contact the whole time; the salacious individual had truly caught him off guard.
"Do you even know who you're speaking to?" inquired Korsur in a tone that meant to sound harsh, but just missed the mark. "You ought to watch your tongue, young man." Despite all his efforts to tell off this gorgeous ridiculous tiefling hybrid, it simply did not look that way on the outside.
Suddenly, the ground shook beneath their feet, rattling nearby buildings. This was by far the strongest quake yet and it was evident on everyone's faces that they were concerned. It went away as fast as it came on and everyone continued their activities, only losing their balance momentarily.
For Korsur, who was terribly distracted, it meant that he stumbled in the direction of his tiefling admirer. Unknowingly, the sun elf had grasped onto the upper arm of the man before him to regain his balance, but also to keep the tiefling hybrid from toppling over as well.

Percival chuckled at the others rather cute stammering reaction finding it amusing as he stepped a little closer “my senses are just fine handsome, I must say read looks good on you~” he added before hearing the next question “I know I’m talking to someone handsome who looks like they could use some help relaxing~. Young man hm? Well I suppose you can call me anything you’d like love” he remarked his grin never fading as he looked at the other, that is until the ground shook with force causing his eyes to widen some, glancing around surprised though relieved when it stopped. He looked to the other grabbing him and soon his grin returned as he put a hand on the others cheek “someone’s forward hm?” He teased in a joking manner knowing he had merely stumbled due to the earth tremor that had occurred. He made sure the other had his balance and was okay as he awaited for the others reply wondering how much of a mess he could make of this elf and how quickly. He was already on his way with the adorable stammering and such after all. What a lovely part of the day

It seemed that whatever Korsur said, the tiefling hybrid responded with more flirting. And judging by the look on his face, it was obvious that he was relishing the moment. Well, two could play that game. The sun elf regained his composure and looked to the young man with a determined expression.
"I'm forward, you say?" Korsur started with a glint in his eye. He grabbed onto the hand rested on his cheek and pulled the young man closer. With his other hand, he lifted the chin of his flirtatious admirer, forcing him to look up into his eyes. "What do you think of this?" Korsur grinned mischievously while maintaining a firm grip on the man's wrist.
Shortly after Korsur's bold advances, the earth shook again, but more severely than before. This time, the people were panicking and beginning to flee as the urban structures cracked and fell apart. What really frightened everyone, however, were the large chasms appearing in the sand, growing larger and larger. And worst of all, there seemed to be lava creeping out of those cracks in the earth. The already scorching temperature rose higher as everything caught fire. It was time to escape.
Without thinking, Korsur grasped his tiefling and threw him over his shoulder before making his way out of the city and away from those chasms. Some of the citizens were heading into the desert, while some were making way to the water. Idiots, he thought to himself. There could be a tsunami forming at this very moment. But now, the sun elf focused on gathering those who've escaped the city, making sure no one's dispersed too far into the desert on their own. At this point, he finally put his little companion back down.

Percival was caught off guard at being pulled closer and the others sudden twist but it wasn’t unwelcome that was for sure. He grinned as he looked up at the other “I think this is fun~” he grinned to the other, his tail giving a little sway at such things. He didn’t expect this to be so fun that was for sure. His attention however was soon grasped by the shaking and the chasm forming shocked at what was happening. This shock however only escalated as he was thrown over the man’s shoulder in shock at such an action though he couldn’t complain much since they were being taken out of the city. He called to those heading towards the water beckoning them away as they headed towards the desert. Once set down his look was one of kindness and worry as he began checking on those injured trying to help make sure people were okay. Before returning to the figure who had carried him “well handsome you certainly swept me off my feet back there. Thanks for that luv though not what usually happens when I flirt” he chuckled and was trying to make light of such a situation. In his mind dwelling on the bad had done nothing

Upon setting down the flirtatious individual, Korsur was pleasantly surprised to see how caring and attentive he was. Following the tiefling's example, Korsur went around to check on the people nearby. No major injuries from what he could see, but plenty of terrified faces. After making his rounds, Korsur went back to stand next to his young companion.
The sun elf, amused, raised a brow at the man when he mentioned being 'swept off his feet.' "Well, someone had to," started Korsur in a matter-of-fact kind of tone. "Else you may not have noticed the commotion and perhaps gotten your pretty little self injured. We can't have that now, can we?" With his last question, Korsur reached over to the young man to lift his chin again. This time, he gently manipulated the tiefling's head to have a thorough look at his features. A mischievous smile adorned his face before pulling his hand away.
"I believe introductions are in order: I am Korsur Dradaal," he spoke with a slight bow to his head. "And yourself?" If the pair were to work together to aid in the evacuation of Zeinav city, it would help for them to know each other's names. Korsur assured himself that that was the only reason for the intrigue; just business and nothing more.

Percival grinned allowing his head to be tilted as he listened to the comment "Pretty hm? Well who am I to complain?" he chuckled "I am Percival, Percival Locksten at your service handsome" he replied with a nod of greetings to the other. This was certainly a day to remember, from flirting to the ground shaking. "Now then handsome I am sure we can continue our lovely little conversation but finding somewhere safe for these folks may be a good start and then we can have all the fun we like" he winked debating on finding a close enough town or if they should just set up a camp and collect resources from the town if possible and hopefully they could work on rebuilding if possible. It just depended on the amount of supplies and food that could be found as well as the lebel of injuries. As he walked away from the man to help a few he glanced back with a grin, his hips swaying as he walked and his tail giving a little flick. Without much more he was back to helping people bandage up and a few to find their families if they had been seperated.

"It's a pleasure to meet you, Percival," spoke Korsur in a low, but playful tone. Percival went on to help the people around him, not without displaying his flirtatious mannerisms, which he made sure Korsur was witness to. He was admittedly quite fascinating to gaze upon.
Brought back to reality, Korsur looked around at all the Zeinav refugees and realized they really had nowhere to go from here. This is the only city in the area, and the nearest habitable zone that they know of is the oasis, but it's terribly far away. They would have to make camp here, next to the ruins of their home. And to do so, they would need to salvage as much as they could from the once vibrant city.
Korsur craned his neck to spot Percival among the crowd. He seemed busy tending to the wounded and reuniting families. The sun elf didn't want to disturb Percival, but at the same time felt the need to inform him of his whereabouts.
"Percival, my dear," started Korsur, his voice much gentler than usual. "I'm off to scavenge the city for supplies. Do join me if you so wish." As he began making his way toward the ruins, he didn't look back to see if Percival would follow him, though he secretly hoped he would. It was quite rare to see Korsur form any kind of attachment to someone else. Though instead of acknowledging the sentiment, he thought to himself, trauma bonding, yes that must be it.

“The pleasure is all mine” he had stated with a soft chuckle he had said before having gone to help the people.percival smiled as he finished up his work for now and turned a bit surprised by the soft tone of voice from the other before his smile widened “I would love to join you handsome” he replied in his typical flirty manner turning and telling the group he would find them supplies whilst away. With that he followed after the other catching up rather quickly “falling for me already hm dear?” He flirtingly joked to the other as he walked by his side. His eyes scanned the surroundings for any sign of more survivors or anything useful. He also however picked up a toy or two here and there feeling like it may help the kids stay calm and provide some comfort as they went along. He hummed a little time soon as he found a basket and began putting food and things in there for the people along with the occasional flower that had survived “if we can find any barrels of food water or ale we can set those aside for assistance I’m sure.” He remarked and grabbed some blanket and fabrics as well as maybe they could make tents and such

Korsur chuckled at Percival's flirtatious question; what a tease. "You'd like that, wouldn't you?" he asked while gazing at his companion with a cocked eyebrow. A smile crept up on the elf's face as he shifted his gaze elsewhere. Scanning his surroundings, all he could see at first were crumbled stones, dusted by the sands that already threatened to swallow the aftermath of the catastrophe as though it never happened.
Reaching the part of the city once adorned with market stalls, all that was left were shattered planks of wood and torn cloth, perhaps a few knick knacks scattered here and there. Nothing terribly useful, but Korsur grabbed what he thought could be salvaged into a temporary shelter. As for food and water, that would be difficult to cultivate. There was the odd loaf of bread here and sandy sausages there; not very promising.
"Yes, though we'd have to find them in the first place," Korsur responded to Percival's mention of barrels of food, water, and ale. "Let's see if we can locate a cellar; something untouched by the earthquake." The sun elf highly doubted there would be any structure still intact, but it was worth a shot. Surely taverns must keep their supplies in a cellar below ground, yes? They just needed to find one. Easier said than done.

“Why of course~” he chuckled “it’s always fun I’d say to see the cute blush and looks on the faces of admirers. They’re gifts and affection.” He chuckled softly “I’m sure you would be quite fun to entertain” he winked as he went back to searching around “I’m sure we can find it” he grinned and began looking moving some rubble to search around the tavern for a cellar entrance in the area. There was a small gap he managed to make once he found the entrance and he thought before squeezing through it being quite flexible and lean.
“Right then this should be promising” he grinned and looked around with the minimal light available. It looked like the back half collapsed a bit but there was a good bit that was still safe and useable “I think we found all we need handsome” he called up to the other “gonna need to move some rubble to get to it all though and more hands” he remarked and slid back out from the narrow opening. “I’m afraid arcane pursuits aren’t my focus but if you can do anything please do love” he remarked with a smile
