[Day 212] Well it woulda been coulda been worse than you would ever know... [OPEN]

Who: Everyone!
Open: Open
When: Day 212, evening
Where: in front of the Distillery
What: No one died during the horrible plague scare! That's reason enough for a feast and a mingle log right?
Format: Any!
Warnings: Shouldn't be any but will adjust if needed



[Someone has been busy today. The kitchen and Distillery has been noisy and bustling, a departure from the much more quiet days when the illness was spreading through the Bastion and survival was once more on the uncertain scale of things. Somewhere around the time that the night cycle begins, when the sky is more of an orange-ish glow fading in to blue and purple, a large spread of food has been set up near the Distillery with glass lanterns hanging overhead.

Just like any other time there has been a feast be it random or planned, there is a wide selection of food on the covered, decorated tables. There's even meat this time! And yes, Aoi, your doughnuts have been transferred from your trees to a platter on the table. There's even a section for Paar, complete with massive amounts of bbq'd mammoth meat! You can thank Colin for that.

There's really no announcement for the feast, but chances are if you're outside at any point today you'll see the progress towards the set up, or smell the delicious scents wafting over the Bastion. (There might even be music playing, if Colin finds a way to provide it!)

Either way, come dusk food will be ready and mingling will be had!]


(ooc: Standard mingle log right here. Throw your threads up, poke other people's threads, and eat all the food!)

[He smiles gently.]

We've definitely covered laughing already. No yelling just yet, though.

... I was summoned from another world as the Yorae Dragon, one of the Endless. We're basically gods. But the summoning ritual was incomplete. One half of me showed up hundreds of years ago. That was Fou-Lu. The other half just showed up recently, and that was me. I don't have any memory of what Fou-Lu did.

If we meet, we'll merge into one again, though... with how I am now I'd just... get absorbed into him.

Abusive precursors. Makes sense.

[Colin rolls his eyes, and keeps right on hugging Tobias.]

No scent, no distinguishing features that you can figure out in one of your forms?

[Yeah, not likely gonna happen right now. It's kind of a pain in the neck learning a language that consists only of one word. Maybe there is hope for the future, especially if she gets her own Pokemon.]

Um. Thank you.

[Yeah, okay. She chews at it tentatively and, deciding it's acceptable, eats the rest of it. She feels like she's not sure what to expect out of these even though she's had them before.]
notachickenhawk: (bird: free)

[personal profile] notachickenhawk 2014-07-29 06:34 am (UTC)(link)
No. If we knew one, we'd be on it. But there isn't one, at least not one we know of.
freedom_engineer: (Head cocked)

[personal profile] freedom_engineer 2014-07-29 07:24 am (UTC)(link)
Hmmm, an interesting conundrum. Worth a little thought. I'll see what I can come up with, there are plenty of animals that have ties to mental processes, just not common ones...

We ever fix what happened here, I'll give you a design on how you can contact my empire. We'll lend a hand.

It sounds like N's got some barriers in his head that he's gotta be pushed through. THAT will be fun...

[Colin shakes his head and he chuckles quietly.]

He's had a really rough time of things. Sooner or later, we'll crack him. But enough of that, you said you were having fun. Good!

I've been trying to think of more things we can do to raise peoples' spirits. What would you think about a movie night? Now that Anna's got a projector, and I've got my Pads, we can probably get some movies set up every evening. Assuming Anna's up for it, of course. It's her projector.

[And if she isn't, well, he can build another one.]
freedom_engineer: (Cocky)

[personal profile] freedom_engineer 2014-07-29 07:35 am (UTC)(link)
Now where did you ever get an idea like that?

[There's a smug grin on Colin's face.]

Some of the best mathematicians in the galaxy have been reclusive assholes who want nothing more than to be left alone until they make some discovery that nobody else has made before. And if there's been a group exercise, it's been quiet pondering until someone says "Oh, I know!" and then there's discussion which devolves into argument, competition, which in turns leads to furious maths, frequently alone again...

In EVERY culture. Terrans, Psilons, Gnolams, Elerians... We are a competitive lot.

None on Earth, at least.

... But thanks.

[He tries to tug away. Waaaaaaay too much physical contact. He needs to get out.]
bulletofhope: (Clinging to fragments of that hope.)

[personal profile] bulletofhope 2014-07-29 08:13 am (UTC)(link)
There really is, but still... that's a lot for one person, right...?

[ Naegi's own plate is more modestly piled in comparison.

He can understand if it was someone like Asahina who had a large plate like that because of her athleticism, but this is too much! ]
bulletofhope: (Siiiigh.)

[personal profile] bulletofhope 2014-07-29 08:14 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, nothing like feeling like a load...

[ He can match you with the snark and self-depreciation there. ]

... at least it's over now, though. So hopefully this won't be an issue in the future...
bulletofhope: (Clinging to fragments of that hope.)

[personal profile] bulletofhope 2014-07-29 08:14 am (UTC)(link)
[ Naegi would also snort in kind but he's not only too kind for that but he wouldn't even know what they were supposed to be snorting at, so he's just gonna nod politely towards Skyla.

He winces in sympathy at hearing how badly she was hurt, though. That must not have been fun, to put it mildly. ]


Wow... that sounds dangerous. I understand we may have to head out there sometimes for various reasons, though.
bulletofhope: (What kind of plot twist is that?!)

[personal profile] bulletofhope 2014-07-29 08:14 am (UTC)(link)
Thanks...!

[ Yep, so Naegi-kun'll just. Be there sitting next to you now, then. ]

... how're you holding up? You weren't too badly affected by that plague, were you?

[ that finally gets her to stop eating and she looks at him with an utterly incredulous expression on her face. ]

A tail. Are you fucking serious?
magisperica: (♦ shit eating grin)

[personal profile] magisperica 2014-07-29 11:49 am (UTC)(link)
[ she is absolutely that kind of person. Sorry, Takane.

The question does make her raise an eyebrow though and she looks more bemused than anything. ]


Haruka? Which one's-- wait. Lemme guess. I'll read your mind -- I'm psychic, y'know.

[ she makes a big show of putting a hand to her forehead and frowns, giving a little 'hmm' of concentration. ]

A girl... no, a guy. Really tall with messy hair. A scar... or a mole? Near his eye. That sound about right?
magisperica: (♦ smug/hmph)

[personal profile] magisperica 2014-07-29 12:13 pm (UTC)(link)
S'only dangerous if you're fucking stupid and you don't know how to defend yourself.

[ The implication there being, of course, that Skyla is the one who's fucking stupid and doesn't know to defend herself. ]

People buy weird shit with their shards, though. Like, I can get wanting to wish up some more places around here -- or wanting crazy stuff you can't actually get back at home -- but some of this shit is ridiculous.

Trees with doughnuts on them. Fuck me.

I think she said the only training she had before was lighting candles.

That's cute. Give it a few years and we'll see if you keep going through things together.
coolerthansora: (clueless)

[personal profile] coolerthansora 2014-07-29 02:39 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah.

What's so weird about that?
freedom_engineer: (Head cocked)

[personal profile] freedom_engineer 2014-07-29 04:12 pm (UTC)(link)
Laughter is a lot more common, yes.

[Colin gives Yukio a warm grin then.]

Just remember not to let him be a brat. It's very easy for kids that age to think they can get away with anything if they don't get boundaries set for them.
freedom_engineer: (Default)

[personal profile] freedom_engineer 2014-07-29 04:14 pm (UTC)(link)
[Okay, Colin will let him go since he seems to be done.]

Think nothing of it, Tobias.
notachickenhawk: (boy: in the crowd...)

[personal profile] notachickenhawk 2014-07-29 05:54 pm (UTC)(link)
No, it... means a lot. We don't... usually have many people helping us.

[Not to mention his own life. Which he won't.]

[He nods, septum piercing bouncing with the movement.]

Okay. I'll try.

[And then comes a moment of increasingly awkward silence while Rob tries to think of some "normal" thing to say.]

So, uh, so how have things been going for you here?
