"Ohhh, philosophical debate, that sounds fun," Sora agreed with a grin as he started walking. "I like smart people~" While the topic at hand was rather serious, some dumb flirting could still be placed in there. Sora was only doing it for fun, anyway.
He knew the way to Hunter's place rather well, as he'd spent quite a bit of time there. How Hunter had acted had worked well with Sora's personality, after all.
However, as they got closer, Sora's steps slowed in confusion. "Okay, why do I see smoke coming from the general direction of where we have to go?" he asked. "This doesn't look good."
Kassandra closed up her laptop and out from her little ‘office’ place to report her newfound werewolf pup friend to her boss after all she might have some insight on him or simply that there was a new werewolf in town that was a good kid, she walked down the hallway until reaching her boss’s door and knocking on it, “Elizabeth?”
“Your doing great!” Jason said with a grin which at first the kid had hiestated for a moment but slowly got onto the board with his help and now he was simply standing on it, “Now once you have your balance, put one foot on the ground to move the board a bit then place that same foot back on the board.

"That's a first." He almost scoffed, not catching on the fact what he meant by 'like'. Though he himself didn't exactly mix well with Hunter- not that he ultimately disliked him, it was more him not getting half the jokes he makes. Thougoh seeing smoke coming from the house they were headed to? Bad omen indeed. "What was that about me being a firefighter?" He asked almost jokingly, pulling out his rapier though approaching slowly, blade lowered."Maybe he tried to cook us lunch before we arrived." Daniel jokes before pushing open the door without knocking, to be greeted with what looks like the corridor towards the living room before turning towards where he assumed the bedroom is, "Wow, what a mess, must be desperate to impress." His jokes lacked a humorous tone but one can easily know that he was still joking. Though seeing that the living room was untouched by the fire, he approached the bedroom in which small weak flames still lit up the ashy mess. Cooking in the bedroom? Always unwise. He touched his rapier on the dwindling flame and it extinguished, left in its place were small frost marks. "Rough sleep I assume." Citrine
Jacob got a little excited and nodded almost too fast, but either way he slowly dropped one foot and pushed, the board suddenly started moving and he froze terrified but the sudden change and remained stiff on the board, not even holding onto the rails or leaning, in case he might fall just by moving, he remained that way even as the board slowed, and when it finally stopped he still remained frozen on the spot. "Is it safe now?"
"We're probably not supposed to be in here," Sora pointed out, though he sounded like he didn't actually care. "Let's work quickly before anybody decides to go through here to check." They'd never hear the end of it if Eliza saw them in here, because he was sure Eliza had been notified that there had been a fire. He moved further into the room, coughing a little. "Okay, you take that side and I take the other. Call me if you find anything, o great firefighter~" he hummed, then moved over to a shelf to see if anything had survived.

"Great, I'm dealing with his mess am I?" He scoffs, putting out more small flames as he makes his way across the room, on high alert. Everything is smoldering and it smells like... like ash I guess. Everything was either burnt or turned into ash, there was literally nothing of value here, "If he really wanted to redecorate he should've used something less destructive..." And that when something golden glinted off the floor, he paused, taking a closer look, brushing the ash off with his other hand to reveal a box that was untouched by the flames. Despite it being buried under layers and layers of ashes? The heck? at the same time, he founded the glinting source, random gemstones littered the same area, I wonder if those were the things that could've protected the box....? They looked a little scattered to really be a source of protection though... He then straightens himself back up and slowly lift off the box lid with the tip of his rapier.
"I can't really believe that he'd set everything on fire on purpose," Sora muttered, then shook his head. "Or maybe I can see it. If it was me I would've still taken stuff with me, though."
While he wasn't very lucky with finding anything that was still more than a pile of ash, he looked over his shoulder to notice Daniel having obviously found something.
"Hey, what's that?" he asked as he moved over, trying to get a better look at it.
Elizabeth jumped as her dopr was knocked on, to which rikki snickered at. He was enjoying how on edge she was from all this mess. After all their alterations this was some good payback. Despute the fact he was like a leashed dog right now. "Come in!" She called, throwing an annoyed glance Rikki's way. "Behave." she warned Rikki, not wanting him to cauae a problem with the less experienced hunters.
(The letters in the box are extremely old looking by their wear and tear. However, they seem as though they have been taken care of very well. Before they were opened they had some sort of wax seal with some crest. There will be no records of that crest if it is searched up. Many of the letters are of mundane and boring things, just telling Hunter about their day. The last few have talk about a plan to run away together, there is mention 'L's' ocerbearing father, the king.)

Jason followed on foot after the kid which the board wasn’t moving that fast however Jacob was so stiff he was slightly worried that he might fall and that would be a good scenario, “Yeah it’s safe, if you want to get off you can.” He answered which sometimes skateboarding wasn’t for everyone or like cooking wasn’t for everyone espiecally his sister who somehow ended up making the kitchen look like a war zone then a simply place of cooking luckily she could heat up food without the microwave blowing up.
”Come In!” Kassandra heard from inside the office and someone snickering which she rembefed that Rikki a werewolf was ‘with’ the Hunters now as the young woman entered the room to see her boss Elizabeth standing in the room and the werewolf in her chair, Ah... I cant tell if I should laugh or not.... that thought crossed her mind which it didn’t help that Rikki looked amused and Elizabeth looking annoyed. “Sorry did I interrupt something...? I could come back...”

Sora's comment got him thinking, yeah no one would randomly decide to burn down half the house unless they REALLY hate it. "It would make sense if he can't control it." Daniel muses, picking up a letter to give it a look, a wax stamp? Who else still uses wax stamps?? Unless its somebody loyal and... very old.... great Scott how old is Hunter?? "Just a box with lots of very, very old letters in it." He opens the letter eventually to be met with what seemed to be very fancy writing.
"Oh..." Jacob slowly steps out carefully, once both feet is solid on the ground he let out a woohoo. "That was fun! Look! I haven't fallen off yet!" He shouts happily towards Jason while giving the boy a hug out of pure happiness.
Jason smiled as he was happy to help however he did flinch when the kid hugged him however returned the hug and gave a small pat on his back, “That’s great, good job Red.” He was of course proud of him and he was starting to see why his elder sister took him under their wing in a figurative sense however Jacob also reminded him of a puppy maybe that was also another reason why she brought him home. “You did better than when I first started.”

"Really?" Jacob's eyes sparkle with glee and a hint of happiness, looking up at the boy while still in a hug. "Well I still can't wait to learn more!" He did the same thing and cautiously got on the skateboard, and looked at Jason excitedly for more instructions.
Sora bent down to take some of the letters himself. His brows furrowed at what appeared to have once been a wax seal, as those weren't exactly common anymore. "I think Hunter may be a little older than he let on," he hummed, then opened one to skim through it. "It's just somebody telling him about their day. It's signed with an 'L'..." he mused, then took the next one. "This one, too. Think all of them are from the same person?"
If that was the case, then whoever that was must have been very important to him, to have kept these letters for such a long time.

"Lover of sorts." Daniel muses, considering how casual the letters are, and kept, and maybe the fact it isn't burned to a crisp? "One way to find out about this one, we could research the crest." He points at the wax seal, "THere got to be someone in that family with a person's name that starts with L right?" It was a wild guess- all he could know this was all stolen, but it was a lead he is willilng to take. "By the way, you know what these runes are?" He pointed at the bunch of rocks scattered around the box, also seemingly unaffected by the flame.
"But, I mean, we have no clue from what time this all is," Sora said, cocking his head to the side. "Even if we manage to trace the wax seal back to something, who is to say we've got the right time period to begin with, plus, what if there's more than one person whose name starts with that?" It all seemed like it was a little unreliable, but what else did they have?
"No, I don't know what those are," he said when Daniel mentioned the rocks. "Do you?"

"Well, with the only information we have, we might as well check it out." Daniel shrugs, it might as well give us a bit of clue no? "I don't recognize the symbols." He said rather bluntly. "But hopefully these aren't the only things we go off with, you find anything?"
