you and me in the moonlight

Who: You!
What: A year end party MINGLELOG to help everyone recover from the Shit we’ve been through.
When: Forwarddated to Nov 24
Where: Enso E4, close to the ST Temple
Warnings: Mark as necessary, but none expected.

As the end of November draws near…… it’s time for that player plot the mods hinted at in their latest announcement.

Laurent’s Witch Labyrinth! -no, actually, it’s just a party.

[preparation]

All day on the 24th people are hard at work setting up on the golden beaches of Enso. The Storyteller’s Temple can be seen from the site and vice versa; it’s just a short walk away. There’s quite a bit to be done, so every extra pair of hands are welcome!

[the party]

As evening falls, a series of torches light up the party site for the lost; most prominent are the three large campfires spaced out across the beach, offering a variety of gathering spots for those who don’t like the loud partying going on at the other one.

There’s more than enough food to go around. An entire Cariborn is being dug up from the sandy soil way up the beach, having been roasted in the ground. There’s a wide variety spread out on tables… of handwaved origin… maybe they’re the ones left around from 4/20?? It’s probably fine. Herb- baked vegetables, fresh fruits, meat of various types, pizza!! and yes, Muffet’s Magic Blackberry Alcohol abound.

We’ve also got party favors. Amongst them, it seems like..... owo are these sparklers?

Come hang out! It’s a well-deserved break.

[activities]

The children (and adults so-inclined) have some cute party games to have fun with. There’s a simple little ringtoss area set up, with rings that aren’t even proper circles (listen, Laurent tried) and wooden stakes in the ground to be ringed.

Across the wide stretch of sand there's a lot that can be done- want to build some sandcastles? Pick some shells? Fight some crabs? The beach is dotted with doodles in the sand, inviting you to join in.

The biggest attraction is perhaps the petting zoo- well, it’s a cluster of animals just hanging out, but you get the idea. Located far up on the beach and away from the danger of the waves, the petting zoo has three whole Chocobos, two whole Tigerlilies (one of which is clearly guarding the Chocobos), and one whole horse. Sometimes two horses, but the grey wandering one is wearing a plaque that says “I BITE. PET ME CAREFULLY.”

[storyteller?]

Yes, ST-chan is invited! I’m leaving it to them to top-level or tag out at their leisure. Keep an eye out for the bunny god, they’re Coming.

[Eh, not so big - actually a bit smaller than the normal wolf by about an inch or two - it's mostly fluff and a lot of leg.

Ammy's attention is mostly on...everything that Mollmauk it. His face, his skin, his horns and everything dangling from them, the gaudy cloak that'd make a kimono seller scream with horror and outrage...woof. You sure are something, good sir. She tilts her head from side to side curiously, ears perking up when presented with the somewhat cleaned off slice of delicious wonder. She tests it with a sniff first, then a testing lick - still a bit gritty - and takes a few nibbles.

Hm... Acceptable. The pizza is grabbed carefully and snapped up into her mouth in three good bites, licking over her nose and whiskers before going back and smattering Molly's palm with her tongue and sticky saliva. Listen, she has to make absolutely sure she got every scrub and every speck of that lovely pizza sauce. It has such an array of flavors she's never experienced before in her life!! Sweet, savory, a bit salty...it's amazing. An explosion of flavor she is not going to pass up on.

Even if it was a bit sandy. She forgives you.]

[ If it's not a lap dog, it's big. Pets are weird, okay? He's not into getting attached to creatures that are so easily lost or killed. The bird girl was bad enough, he fully expected that to go badly and his friends to need therapy afterwards.

It worked out in the end, but getting eaten by a big fluffy thing is still on the table.

At least Ammy takes the pizza slice and eats it, and that's honestly a relief. Less of a relief is the slobbering all over his hand.

Eugh, that's... ew.

Shaking his hand a bit to get rid of some Ammy drool, the tiefling isn't sure what to use to wipe it off (he's not using his coat) and then realizes he just has to live with it. ]


Well, I hope you enjoyed it.
mamaterasu: (Heh.)

[Maybe you're the weird one! Though being treated as someone's pet, or a stray dog is far better than being treated like a dangerous, wild animal. Thank goodness so many people here view Amaterasu as just a dog and not a wolf (though she does question their knowledge on how dogs and wolves differ sometimes...), otherwise she'd have a lot more trouble making friends and getting free and delicious food like this.

She watches the poor guy struggle with her slobbery kisses and her lips pull back in a rather sly sort of grin, tongue hanging from her lower jaw as she utters a raspy sort of chuckle - like a hyena's laugh. Oh, people are so funny to watch...though the ocean is just a few feet away, if this colorful lad really needs to cleanse his poor, sullied hand. He probably should, though, Ammy's breath is like toxic waste. Divine toxic waste, but still.

She wags her tail and makes a contemplative sound in her throat, turning her head from side to side. Meh, it was decent. Would have been better without the sand, but...beggars can't be choosers.]

[ Don't @ him, he's not been around wolves that are not actively trying to eat his face. Nice ones are going to be dogs unless proven otherwise.

That grin and the laughter gets a look from Mollymauk, and he makes a face. Shit, this wolf was sapient. ]


Either you're some asshole werewolf or you're... eugh, that stinks!

[ Jeez Ammy doesn't anyone put little doggie toothbrushes on their fingers and clean you? That's some foul shit, excuse him as he goes to wash it off.

Saltwater is better than divine death. ]


That's the last time I'm helping!

[Many have tried to tame her odor, and many have also failed. Ammy is the Caleb of the canine world, bathing only when the rains come and when she travels via mana pool. It's basically a bath, right? She's only ever really bathed when real, sticky gunk was in her fur and began to create mats. Her breath, though...that's a whole other story. I'm sure you could wish up some denta-bones for her to chew on, Molly, if you're so inclined.

Ammy wheezes out a soft laugh again, following after Molly happily, but keeping her distance from the surf. The gentle lap against her paws isn't bad, but she won't go in past her ankles (or what would constitute as such on a wolf), waiting patiently for him to finish washing off. Now you've just gotten her attached to you, good sir - you're entertaining.

Plus, you fed her. Now it'll be a task to get rid of her.]
