[WORLD ONE] SPEED DATING EXTRAVAGANZA

Who: Participating coven members
Where: The Palai marketplace
When: Day 49
Open/Closed: OTA

[ Any and all who are in the marketplace will find that there is suddenly a mysterious barrier around the marketplace (that may be eerily familiar to some) -- specifically one large portion of the marketplace with a large number of tables and chairs, perhaps purposefully set out for nefarious reasons.

A few Palai are ushering coven members to chairs, and everything seems about normal. As normal as the Palai can be when they're putting on a show anyway. It's not until a sizable portion of the coven members are seated (and also supplied with breadsticks and small shrimp), that things get a bit more bizarre.

Thanks to the power of the Eltos, a small band of energy keeps coven members stuck to the chair (magic can interfere, of course), but that's not the end of it. On each table, next to those delicious smelling breadsticks and shrimp, is a bowl of scraps of papers. Every five minutes, a strip of paper will pop out from the bowl.

If you ask the Palai, they'll be inclined to explain speed dating to you. Asking questions, getting to know a person, then being shimmied off to the next potential mate -- this is made possible by Elto magic yet again, through flying chairs that transport their holder to a new table at standard intervals.

The Palai are extremely invested in this exercise? Will you let them down? ]


[ OOC: In the spirit of speed dating, each character will have a top level. All who want to respond to this top level can with questions from this post, but the threads have to end at 10 comments from each character. After this last tag, the characters can be assumed to have been whisked to a different potential match. You're free to have characters make up their own questions, interact with Palai serving food, etc. ]

I see.

[ not really but details ]

Did you ask the Great Spirits about the world where the spirits were gone?

There's one Great Spirit in particular who ended up in the human realm that I spent a long time journey alongside. Her name is Milla. Milla Maxwell. She was... she was someone I admired more than anyone else. Headstrong, determined...

Almost everything I learned about spirits, I learned from her.

Could she restore the lesser spirits?

[ jude didn't really answer his question, so: ]

[ jude snaps himself out of his little reverie. he didn't answer the question, did he... oops. ]

She could. In a sense. That was part of her purpose.

... You sure are curious about this. Any particular reason?

The environment should be protected, for everyone's sake.

[ Since spirits were a part of the environment, they should be revived as well. It was all very logical for him, more so by the fact that he's become keenly aware of how a ruined world would bring only bad tidings for its people. ]

I'd wish for your world to become well again.

Trust me, I wish for the very same thing. More than anything.

[ jude's gaze is downcast. he absently picks at a breadstick, not all too interested in eating. every one of these dates has been so different. ]

That's why I'm putting everything I have into protecting it.
bulletbiter: (talky thing)

[personal profile] bulletbiter 2017-09-22 04:51 pm (UTC)(link)
I'd like to help.

[ Though as he says it, he realizes something important: that he doesn't know how. ]

Just let me know what I can do for you.
