Hijinks Mingle

Who: Everyone!
Where: Anywhere around the hub!
When: Days 103-105
Open/Closed: Open mingle!
Notes: See this post for details on the moon prompt and this one for the telepathy/dream/spirit prompts!



[A | Flower Gleam and Glow]
[The nearby moon is still passing close to the hub island, meaning the effects are still in play. Perhaps now is the time to stop and smell the large lit up sparkling moonflowers that have bloomed? Or be annoyed by the mosquito-like insects that came with them.

Alternatively, the deer seem to draw some sort of energy from the moon's light. Given their size, at least their sudden aggression and proximity to the base camp isn't the worst thing in the world but a kick would still break a rib or other bone so be careful! Possibly help each other deal with these cute but troublesome fauna.]



[B | Eavesdropping]
[For some reason, the telepathy will suddenly get rather wonky. Characters won't know why it's happening, though of course no doubt there will be ponderings, but it means characters won't be in control of their ability to broadcast — or more specifically, not broadcast — their thoughts. Time to find out secrets of an embarrassing nature. Or maybe something sadder is going on in your character's head.

If this wasn't bad enough, the area around the signet might experience burning or tingling. Just try to keep a lid on your brain for the day and distract yourself from any annoying pain.]



[C | Talking In Your Sleep]
[Or maybe your character just doesn't have the most interesting thoughts. Maybe they're busy thinking about pie instead of their upsetting childhood. That's fair. Pie is great.

But surely sometimes it haunts their dreams. With the telepathy running amuck, it's no wonder dreams and nightmares are leaking through, too. Of course, it doesn't have to be an accident. Feel free to grab a friend and share a fanciful dreamscape together on purpose! But for those nuts that are tougher to crack, accidents can and will happen.]



[D | Who You Gonna Call]
[Last but not least, as Friday rolls around, there seems to be something odd going on with the island. If your character is inclined towards the spiritual or supernatural, they'll no doubt notice the strange heavy thickness hanging around. There are whispers in the air and all of new energy just feels solemn. Might be good to give people a heads up and keep an eye on it.]

...

If you ever have a lot of trouble sleeping, I can-- I can take away nightmares. I mean, I can make people sleep, and usually it's peaceful. I can sort of do it even here. Just let me know.
sealeted: (start over)

[personal profile] sealeted 2017-10-20 01:57 am (UTC)(link)
Do you have to have them yourself?
rootandbranch: (you're here; and that means so much)

[personal profile] rootandbranch 2017-10-20 02:08 am (UTC)(link)
Oh! N-no, I just have to see someone -- or get them to listen to my voice. Um, I used to hunt with it when I was little and couldn't chase the deer. If they could see my eyes, they'd freeze or get groggy...

[does that trick sound weird when described to a human as a thing to use on them? this is the first time he's described it to a human. possibly... yes?]
sealeted: (does she wear black?)

[personal profile] sealeted 2017-10-20 02:10 am (UTC)(link)
...I might take you up on it, sometime.

[Not always. It isn't fair to rely on him so desperately.]
rootandbranch: (up with the morning sun.)

[personal profile] rootandbranch 2017-10-20 02:16 am (UTC)(link)
Okay. That's fine. Sometime's fine.

[he doesn't mind. no one except Vern has ever asked him to use his eyes or voice to soothe them before, but Hakuno is someone who's been through a lot. he's glad she trusts him.]

...is somebody there with you? Or can you get someone?
sealeted: (it is a cruel dream)

[personal profile] sealeted 2017-10-20 02:18 am (UTC)(link)
Robin and Beech are inside. I-I needed some fresh air.

[She didn't want to disturb them.]

...I'll go back inside in a little bit.
rootandbranch: (back to you.)

[personal profile] rootandbranch 2017-10-20 02:21 am (UTC)(link)
Wake one of them up, okay? For me? I'll worry otherwise.

[damn. Geir plays dirty.]
sealeted: (here in the moonsea)

[personal profile] sealeted 2017-10-20 02:22 am (UTC)(link)
Beech is just a baby, she needs her sleep.
sealeted: (there's red varnish on the door)

[personal profile] sealeted 2017-10-20 02:28 am (UTC)(link)
...yeah. He probably heard me get up anyways.
rootandbranch: (strength enough for me.)

[personal profile] rootandbranch 2017-10-20 02:35 am (UTC)(link)
Okay. Thank you.

[a sigh, more felt than heard]

I hope you can get back to sleep. It's going to be a long night.
sealeted: ('til I'm dead)

[personal profile] sealeted 2017-10-20 02:37 am (UTC)(link)
...it might take a while.
rootandbranch: (strength enough for me.)

[personal profile] rootandbranch 2017-10-20 02:40 am (UTC)(link)
Same here.

[taking advantage of the elevated signet levels, he sends her-- not really a specific memory, but a feeling of warmth and affection; something meant to reassure, to get her through the cool dark night.]
sealeted: (from these stars)

[personal profile] sealeted 2017-10-20 02:43 am (UTC)(link)
Thanks Geir.

[She sends back an approximation of deep, deep gratitude.]

That helps a lot.
rootandbranch: (love; it carries me back to my home)

[personal profile] rootandbranch 2017-10-20 02:51 am (UTC)(link)
G-good.

[she feels something like a pleased blush (can dragons blush?) before he gently withdraws.]
sealeted: (your gentle winding mind)

[personal profile] sealeted 2017-10-20 02:52 am (UTC)(link)
[If it bleeds, it can blush.]

Let me know if there's anything I can do for you, too.
rootandbranch: (won't let go)

[personal profile] rootandbranch 2017-10-20 03:07 am (UTC)(link)
I will.
