[HUB ISLAND | ICE BREAKERS]

Who: Coven Members
Where: Coven Base Camp
When: Day 90
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.

[ jude laughs. ]

I think I know someone like that, too.

Do they also like behaving like they're 5 despite being at least three times older?

[other people as childish as yuri, huh? tell him more about this friend!]

Hmm... five is a little harsh. Maybe add a few years. Eight? Nine? Twelve?

Still a kid, though. He's 27.
thatdamnknight: (listen to many speak to a few)

[personal profile] thatdamnknight 2017-10-28 02:20 am (UTC)(link)
27 and still a kid? And here I had hope Yuri'd grow up one day.

[looks like that may never happen, sigh.]

What sort of a person is this friend of yours?

He likes to tease people. Me, in particular.

[ jude shakes his head and sighs, exasperated. why does alvin have to single him out? ]

He's not bad. He is my friend, after all. Sometimes I just wish he'd go a little easier on me, y'know? I'm not a kid.

[ sixteen and an adult, yep. ]

But I do care about him.

[maybe flynn's smile widens the smallest fraction when jude protests about not being a kid. he won't comment on that, but only kids ever say that they're not kids.]

You do sound like far more of an adult than him.

[sometimes 16 really is older than 27.]

Though people who tease usually do it as a sign of affection. If he teases you so much then he must really value your friendship.

... Maybe he does. Yeah.

[ his lips quirk upward into a smile. ]

We've been through a lot together. Sure, I haven't known him as long as you've known Yuri, but still.

The time spent together doesn't matter; what does is how much of an impact you both have had on the other during that time.

[and from the looks of it? they impacted the other quite a bit.]
talim: do not take (pic#10683681)

[personal profile] talim 2017-11-15 01:00 pm (UTC)(link)
You're right.

[ that smile turns into something softer; fonder. reflective. ]

Thanks, Flynn.

[ he's not sure what he's thanking him for, but— it just feels like the right thing to do. ]

I always enjoy talking to you.
thatdamnknight: (the best is yet to come)

[personal profile] thatdamnknight 2017-11-15 04:32 pm (UTC)(link)
[he hasn't said anything worthy of praise but somehow it feels like it'd be pointless to say as much. ah well, he'll allow this thank you to slip by without comment. just this once.]

I feel the same. Our conversations never fail to be pleasant.

[jude's definitely one of his favorite people to talk to in the coven.]

I'm glad we're on the same page.
