⤈ i. cat kneads
[She really wasn't going to stop by the bakery, but after seeing and hearing some of the effects of the bread, she takes a look and picks up one.]
...Huh, bread that can repel annoying people?
[She grins at whoever may be nearby.]
Might have to take a few of these, and some of the others.
[Invisibility? Jump boost? Floating? Armor? Sounds too good to be true, but hey if it actually works—]

⤈ ii. wy's have it
[a) Dealing with the wyverns. When Aranea arrives onto the island, she clicks her tongue as she sees a few wyverns already harassing a farmer's herd of cattle.]
Hoping for a cheap meal, huh? Guess the clock starts now!
[With her spear appearing in her hand, Aranea rushes in and jumps up high, soaring into the sky as if flying before she shouts on purpose, alerting the wyvern of her incoming attack to make it scatter without actually making a connection. Instead the wyvern will quickly divert as her spear impales the ground, leaving a small blast crater.
There's a reason for her not directly attacking the wyvern despite proceeding to engage in them—instead she's trying to drive them off, inflicting as minimal damage to them as possible. She knows something is up, and if she has to kill one she will. But in the meantime, she's going to focus on just making them fly off for now.
If anyone needs help reaching them, she some of the Yeast Boosts Buns, Loaf Lift Pumpernickle, and the Crust Shield Ciabatta from the cat bakery to help.
b) Investigating. Once things are settled around the farms, Aranea will head towards the mountains. Anyone is free to tag along, or she could meet up with someone who happens to be doing the same. At some point, however, she'll stop when she sees large claw marks on the ground, frowning as she kneels down to run her fingers over it.]
...This is definitely not from a wyvern, at least not the ones we've seen so far. Did something bigger move in?
[Could the culprit be a larger monster that invaded? A shortage of food? Someone controlling them!? POSSIBILITIES ARE ENDLESS and open to other ideas, but at least one angle to be looked could be potential larger creature that has come in.]

⤈ iii. pocket picked by a penny
[Seems simple enough. Take this Rupoor coin and try to sneak it into someone's pocket to reap the rewards later. Of course the other catch is retrieving the coin... But that's what clear wires are for, right? She might also use the Clumb Cloak Croissant to help for a bit.
A few scenarios for this:
a) Casual Bump. A common tactic—bump into someone, slip the coin into the person's pocket or bag, and then leave in the next step. Quick, simple—but will it be successful, difficult, or a failure?
b) Witness. Sly as she might be, she's not perfect. Perhaps someone catches her in the act and wants to confront her about it?
c) Caught. Maybe her target is a better thief or just happened to notice what she did and catches her before she can slip away!
d) Belated realization. The pocket was successfully picked, and her target notices a little too late. But there's still a chance to try and catch her, especially since she might actually stay and wait to return the items. Maybe.
e) Need some help? Someone else may be trying to use the coin, and either is having difficulty or on the run. She could lend a hand... Or trip them up so they get caught, who knows—
Aranea may actually return the items depending on what she finds. But she may also be tempted to keep coins, so we'll have to see how things go for that, ho ho. If the item is something that needs to be returned, just make note of it and we'll make it work.]

⤈ iv. the graven trinkets
[Careful while going through the wreckage, upon finding one of the questionable amulets said to be capable of dark magic, Aranea frowns.]
...Doubt there's enough money to make something like this worth existing.
[She brings her spear down, ready to break it unless someone stops her.
Otherwise, she'll be around the ship either to help, hinder, or even steal from others if she sees the opportunity. Using the Crumb Cloak Croissant, she'll use those precious thirty seconds to sneak up and just swipe some of that treasure or coins right from under their nose!]

⤈ v. bounty: miss praying mantis
[She might not have fire magic, but she does her her spear that can pierce through tough armor. Now she would probably try to do this by herself, but Aranea might try to find male partners for...totally not suspicious reasons.]
Not scared of a large bug, are you?
[The reason is bait, she wants to use them as bait—
