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.]

[sniffs a bit]

Sure. Whatever. If it means you'll stop being dumb about this I guess it was worth giving.

[what an ungracious therapist]

[flynn'll be gracious enough for the both of them, as evidenced by how he smiles warmly despite the 'dumb' comment.]

I do appreciate it... [he pauses upon suddenly realizing something.] I don't believe I ever got your name.

Vern. It's Vern. And you're...that guy.

Flynn. It's a pleasure to meet you properly.

[and cue that charming smile.]
rootbound: (thoughts like these.)

I'm not sure an impromptu counseling session counts as a proper meeting, but, uh, if you like...

[metaphorical kitten puffing]

...is there anything else you wanted to talk about. While I'm here being a convenient ear.
thatdamnknight: (to thine own self be true)

No, I think this is more than enough. Thank you.

[a perfect thing to say just as scenery starts to fade. whoooosh. looks like the dream is ending. great chat, vern! flynn will actually take this all to heart when he wakes up.]
