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.]

I've told you before that your opinion is worth plenty to me.

[Though she can understand his hesitance to believe her. He did try to kill her a few times, as they both know.]
guerrilla: (than we get on the long way down)

[personal profile] guerrilla 2017-10-22 02:09 am (UTC)(link)
...Then listen up, okay? I have some regrets about the Holy Grail War, but losing to you isn't one of 'em. You deserved to live.

[It's probably not going to do much to help with her bad dreams or the pain she feels knowing exactly how many lives hers cost, but it doesn't feel right to not say anything at all.

He reaches over and roughly musses her hair.]


That's all I wanted to say, I guess.
sealeted: (trying for years to flee)

[personal profile] sealeted 2017-10-22 02:15 am (UTC)(link)
[Hakuno isn't all that expressive, unless her feelings are in a major state of disarray. He's seen her scared, and frantic, seen her desperate and endangered.

Right now, he gets to see her smile, ruby red.]


...really, thank you, Robin. That... that means a lot.

[Her heart aches, because none of them ever, ever seem to blame her for living. But it's a sweet, warm ache, like a healing bruise.]

[personal profile] guerrilla 2017-10-22 02:35 am (UTC)(link)
[Fortunately, before it can get too sappy in here, Hakuno and Robin reach the entrance of the building.]

...From here, we just try to leave the grounds, right?

[If this doesn't wake them up he's going to be so upset.]
sealeted: (at the end of my day)

[personal profile] sealeted 2017-10-22 08:48 pm (UTC)(link)
[Bond Event over, time to GTFO.]

Well, hopefully.

[She takes a breath and looks up at him.]

...together on three?
guerrilla: (don't hold your breath)

[personal profile] guerrilla 2017-10-22 11:32 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah. One...two...

[He gives Hakuno one last worried glance.]

...Three.

[He takes a step, out of school grounds, and the next thing he knows he's sprawled on the floor in the dead of night, the back of his head throbbing in pain. He sits up, grimacing, then glances toward the pillow that he and Hakuno sleep on every night. Hopefully she'll be awake, too...but if not, he can try waking her up from outside.]
sealeted: (I live in my head)

[personal profile] sealeted 2017-10-23 02:20 am (UTC)(link)
[He looks over just in time to see the small, curled up squirrel on the pillow puff up, every muscle tense and a faint, wild sheen to her large, dark eyes. The next moment, the tension flows away and the squirrel is replaced by Hakuno, who is rubbing her face tiredly.

Despite just waking up.

She glances around, and keeps her voice to a soft murmur.]


...thank goodness. Beech seems to be sleeping happily.
guerrilla: pixiv id 57516102. nsfw in source. (a painful feeling of humiliation)

[personal profile] guerrilla 2017-10-24 03:32 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, looks like she's fine.

[He's just as relieved as Hakuno is. Technically Beech isn't part of the coven, per se, but it'd be rough on her if she got dragged into the nightmares of people like Robin and Hakuno.]

...Are you gonna be okay, Master?

[He asks even though he knows she will be. No one he's met is more resilient than she is, after all.]
sealeted: (and I'll be at the front of the line)

[personal profile] sealeted 2017-10-24 03:42 am (UTC)(link)
...

[She spends a moment fussing with the blanket, making sure Beech is all snug and cozy, and just so coincidentally does not look him in the eye for a moment.

She does, however, meet his gaze when she answers.]


Yes. It’s just a bunch of bad memories right now, not an ultimatum creeping closer by the day. That’s already worlds better. It’s just taking a little while to fully register with parts of me, that’s all.
guerrilla: (to paint my handprint)

[personal profile] guerrilla 2017-10-24 03:50 am (UTC)(link)
Okay.

[He'll leave it at that. He's not really the kind of person who's good at hashing out feelings or having conversations deeper than a puddle.]

You have any plans tomorrow?

[But what he is good at is doing frivolous things to pretend everything is fine.]
sealeted: (here in the moonsea)

[personal profile] sealeted 2017-10-24 03:53 am (UTC)(link)
I might sleep in a little, if I can manage it.

[She sits on the pillow and blinks at him.]

Was there something you wanted to do?
guerrilla: (the bottom's all i found)

[personal profile] guerrilla 2017-10-24 03:57 am (UTC)(link)
I was gonna go out with Beech for a while, that's all. I thought you might wanna come too.

[There isn't a whole lot to do on the hub, but Hakuno doesn't seem like the type who needs flashy things to make the most of her free time. So it's probably fine.]
sealeted: (from these stars)

[personal profile] sealeted 2017-10-25 12:02 am (UTC)(link)
That sounds good.

[Anything where she isn't alone sounds good, but Beech is a darling.]
