Open/Closed: OTA

You're not doing anything right now, right? Good. Genette's using some of the resources taken from Aimintas to create a little get together. Even if you do have something going on, she's not averse to using a little force to make the evening magical. In fact, the magic is exactly how she's pulling this off. Genette is offering you to a little get together at the base camp, which may be all it takes for you to follow her. If not? Your hand is tethered (or some other part of you) quickly and you're led to the camp anyway. This is important, darn it! What's so important? A little "party" of sorts. There's an assortment of foods, some of which have been hastily made since some groups have gone harvesting for new resources, and a large water basin that's acting as a punch bowl. The true purpose of this little activity is a 'get to know you' exercise of sorts. Genette's got a glass container of a large quantity of Elto bones that can short-circuit the tethers, but the caveat is that you have to participate in a little, tethered sharing circle. (It's honestly a good idea to know who you're stuck within your little makeshift coven, but Genette is the pushy sort when she sets her mind to something.) The way to be released from your Elto shackles? Tell everyone your name, where you're from, your magic (seemingly left a little ambiguous) and something else about yourself. Discussions are encouraged! The more people know, the better! After you're done sharing with the class, food and drink is yours to have -- or you can just run off, that's fine too. OOC: Characters who would have absolutely nothing to do with this can of course escape, whether fleeing in the first place or using Elto bones of their own to circuit out their tether. A ▢ This is it -- your character can breathe deeply, unlock their knees and get this little activity over with. All they have to do is share the criteria and they're free to go! B ▢ Afterwards, their free to stick around the area and mingle. There IS food and also drinks. They may also want to have a more private conversation about something they learned tonight.

[Robin gives the plate a good hard stare, then sniffs the food, a discerning look on his face. After a few moments, he hands it back to Waver.]

I'd have to taste it to know for sure, but there's no sign of any natural poisons as far as I can tell.

[Though chemicals cooked up in labs are beyond his experience and he's completely unfamiliar with most of the plants he's encountered on the hub, so it means a lot less than it normally would.]

[Waver's frown only deepens, and he then sighs.]

And that doesn't discount just weird stuff that can set powers haywire.

[guerrilla]

It's only a matter of time 'til I figure out that stuff too, but if we keep getting shipped off to other worlds it'll be a pain in the ass. It's hard to make sure your boss doesn't get poisoned if you don't know what's poisonous, you know?

[That's probably not a valid concern most of the time, but as someone who spent a solid two years, well, poisoning people, it's more at the forefront of his mind than it is most people's.]

[teratias]

Mmm. And something suggests that we are never going to be given any true chance to settle here and get some kind of ground under our feet.

[It isn't a bad concern to have though, if the time with the Palai was anything to go by. Weird food and weird impact on powers. Ugh.]
