🧙 WHO: Emerald & Open!
⚔️️ WHAT: Various prompts
🕒 WHEN: July catch-all
🗺️ WHERE: Camelot, Beachside (near Camelot),
⚠️ WARNINGS: bikini in prompt A.
A. Not As Directed - Docks
[ If you're anywhere hanging around the sea mounts that are hanging around the docks, you're going to find yourself in Danger of getting nailed by a baby mossatee. Having insulted the mossatees, a swimsuit-clad Emerald is trying to make it up to them by doing some baby fetching so they'll stop trash talking her to the other mounts. She doesn't need to have one of the deinosuchus as badass as they are, she just needs wants one of them to cooperate with her despite that she doesn't seem to have a partner yet.
Which is why, instead of rolling the mossateenies one at a time, Emerald is on the shore, picking them up, spinning to gain a little extra distance, and chucking them like they're incredibly bulky shot put balls. ]
Duck!
[ At least she's shouting if it looks like the tiny mossatees are going to nail someone in the head. ]
B. Living Spaces - Camelot
[ Emerald likes that this place provides them all with a place to live in Avalon. She likes that there's a cushion that she's not going to end up back on the street. But living in an inn feels an awful lot like not actually having a real home, too, and with Emerald feeling like she's been doing decently lately, she's feeling a little braver too.
She's also considered, maybe she doesn't have to go home from this place. It's questionable what she really has to go back to. Which has lead her to consider maybe checking out some of the local real estate. Maybe she hasn't gotten a real job and has just been skating by on quests and festival prizes and selling cool crap she finds going along with some of these journeys (and occasional less legal pocket supplementation).
Either way she's wandering around buildings around Camelot looking lost with a handful of open house flyers, and may come up to various people to ask. ]
Do you know where this is?
C. Lavaft Behind (with Lasers?) - Celliwig, a few days later
[ Not having found anything she's super impressed with in Camelot, Emerald heads up to Celliwig to go see if they have any free real estate, and realizes there's a quest there while she's there. Her magic is light and dark, so exactly how she's planning on getting this little guy out of the lava?
She heads back up to the top to grab some of the diamond. She's not planning on running off with it, but instead takes it into the lava chamber. ]
Just like burning ants...
[ Is it? She's not really sure, but Emerald's trying to beam some light magic into the diamond to amplify it kind of like how kids burn ants with a microscope. A rainbow comes out and she squints. That's not what she wanted... she tried focusing it harder to see if she can empower the light beam into a laser... but she doesn't quite know how yet. Help? ]

{ Want something else? Lmk!
no subject
I could, but...
[ She has a good reason! ]
There are a lot of people here who suck at tech, if I want someone to come over I want them to be able to find me without relying on a phone. If I can't find it asking a few people around, there's no way the weirdos from backwards planets are going to.
no subject
[Cities are easy, they're all the same. Okay, there are variances, how dominating the skyline is, how many coffee shops there are on a block. But they feel the same in their bones. It's very pleasant to Maya.]
I guess that's a good consideration. I've- never really thought of that. All my friends either had phones or knew how to fake having a phone well enough to fool me...
[Now she feels bad for not considering people might need to work without tech. Pretty shitty of her to overlook that.]
Anyway, so you're not lost, you're pretending to find out if other people can find there way?
no subject
[ Though to Emerald, the idea of someone actually asking to come over probably isn't something she needs to worry about. It's never happened, it probably won't. Even if she's trying to turn over a new leaf. Optimism isn't exactly her key trait. In fact, there was once a time when she made gagging noises at the thought of hanging around hopelessly optimistic people behind their back. ]
...Both? It's not like I've been to where I'm going before, but I have a general idea where I am. I just need to find the particular building.
no subject
[Maya's hand glows with her healing magic for a moment. Not something she called forth on purpose, but something she just accidentally does while working out how her powers are meant to be. Maybe if she had this- after the crash. No, no nono. Maya puts those thoughts away for the moment. Letting the glow fade off. Hoping the despair wasn't readable on her face for the few seconds she let it out.]
Well, if you have a picture of the building I could probably help from that? I've been wandering for a while just taking in the city. I may remember something.
no subject
As far as I can tell, every world sucks and everyone's got pain and this place seems like a nice pre-apocalypse vacation.
[ Sorry Maya, Emerald isn't much for hope and comfort. She's on the good people side now, but she's still coming from a life of nothing but struggling to survive, alone. Emerald's very observant, and even if her empathy is warped, it's still there. Which is why she responds at all to Maya's complaint about pain without magic. But it is what keeps her from voicing her theory that this place wouldn't be so nice if they weren't needed to keep the magic going. ]
Yeah. Here.
[ She holds up her phone to show the picture of it. She's not found a printer here but even the crappiest technology people can still receive pictures.]
no subject
[One way to handle being here. If the clock has stopped, there's no rush. If your world sucks, why save it? Maya... couldn't enjoy herself knowing her family was trapped. She wished she could.]
Hmm... I think I saw it back there? But I might be wrong.
[Maya does keep extra vigilance of her surroundings if she's blocking out the sounds of the world with her headphones, but that's usually more about vehicles and walking into lamp posts than it is buildings. It looks like something she saw, but she also doubts if she remembers it right.]
