DuckQuests [Open]
🧙 WHO: Drake Mallard/Darkwing Duck and whoever!
⚔️️ WHAT: An open log with each of this month's Top Tasks!
🕒 WHEN: Throughout the first half of the month
🗺️ WHERE: Throughout Camelot
⚠️ WARNINGS: Probably some level of nsfw stuff for the Hot Knights prompt (but no smut); possible mentions of and attempted murder/violence for the Cult Classic prompt.
A. A Sheepish Request [Shear Determination - Drake]
[Drake Mallard is ready to undergo some quests! And the first one he chooses seems simple enough. Just shear some sheep! A... fire-breathing sheep. He doesn't have much experience with this, but how hard could it be?
Armed with a blade for shearing, he starts to approach the sheep with his partner.]
It's... easy, right? Nice, quick and easy, right? [He better hope that his own nervousness doesn't make the sheep too nervous too...!]
B. A Knight to Remember [Hot Knights - "Howard"]
[This request seems a bit more risque than his usual work! But still, there's someone to be saved, and he's here to do the saving. He decides to go undercover to complete the work. So he puts on a rental suit and tries to slick back his hair... feathers... hair-feathers, whatever they are. Once at the club, he's quickly weirded out by seeing all these scantily-clad humans. Regardless, he tries to act natural as he makes his way to the bar and introduces himself.]
The name's... Howard. [A beat.] Howard, uh, McDuck. That's right! [He snaps his fingers, ordering a drink.] I'll have it shaken, then stirred!
[There could be someone else nearby - either someone along with him on this quest or is running into him while doing his separately!]
C. Duck Flick [Cult Classic - Darkwing]
[This feels like a quest he absolutely cannot overlook. As a crimefighter, this is one eccentric and dangerous villain who needs to be taken down! And as an actor, he feels like he has the know-how to corner this villain! And so, in the guise of Darkwing Duck, he finds someone to act out a movie scene with.]
...Okay. Are you ready for this?
[ooc: Details about the kind of movie being done will be set on a thread-by-thread basis! If you have a specific movie idea in mind, you can establish that in your tag-in! If not, leave your tag-in vague about the specifics and I'll pick something. Or feel free to contact me to hash out specifics!
D. Wildcard
[Feel free to come up with an alternate prompt or hit me up for plotting! Non-quest-related prompts are also welcome!]

no subject
[ Apparently Minako has found a new deadly weapon.. an indiscriminately firing sheep. ]
no subject
For making an illusion look like you apparently???
no subject
For a moment it seems like Minako might just accept the apology - this time.
But then her eyes narrow, and the moment is done. ]
That's not good enough! What part of that apology is supposed to be genuine?! I don't sense any real apologetic emotion in it at all! [ .. maybe since he's too busy jumping around in the most panicked way, Minako.. ]
no subject
[More dodging, dipping, ducking, diving and dodging!]
N-no offense, but I feel like that should maybe the higher priority right now!
no subject
[ Because excuse you, Drake, how could living possibly be more important than soothing the feelings of a beautiful young girl? Minako sure can't understand that!
But despite the whining and melodramatics going on here, the girl does move to pat the sheep, carefully rubbing a hand over its head until said sheep seems to calm down. At the very least enough so to no longer be firing at Drake. ]
There, there, little thing.. You're my only real friend around here, huh? [ Not like that BETRAYER Drake!!! ]
no subject
H-hey now... I'm your friend, too. I'm sorry about that, alright? It was just an accident! ...And thank you, too, for all of your help! [And some of her not-help.]
no subject
The bad news is that she's still pouting. Which means that Minako's mood hasn't improved a whole lot, but at least it's not loud enough anymore to set off the sheep all over again. ]
How was that an accident, huh? How can you accidentally make a sheep look like me?
no subject
I don't know! It's - magic can be very delicate! I was trying to focus on the image of the illusion I was making, and I guess that talking to you at the same time might have... mixed the images. That's all. I'm still kinda new-ish to this!
no subject
[ She's silent for a moment. Minako is contemplating this explanation he's giving here - perhaps trying to mentally weigh whether it's the truth or not. She's trying really hard to see some sort of clue in his facial expression, but she's not sure that it's giving anything away..
Which means she will just have to decide for herself whether or not to trust him. ]
Fine. [ Minako then says, slowly. ] Just as long as you don't think I'm somehow like a sheep in any way..!
no subject
Of- of course not, Minako! You can trust me on this. The last thing I'd think you are is sheep-ish!
no subject
I'm trusting you this once.
[ Though there's a definite emphasis on 'this once' as she's saying it. ]
You're on a strike system now though! Three strikes, and you will have to face the wrath of the goddess of love and beauty herself..! [ .. or maybe she will just employ her new sheep buddy again. He seems pretty effective. ]
no subject
Ah... Thanks, I think. [He responds uncertainly as he moves to collect the wool.]
I hope I don't have to go up against the goddess! That - that might be out of even Darkwing Duck's league! Trust me, I won't be looking to make any more strikes. ...But if I didn't really mean it, shouldn't it just be a half-strike...?
no subject
[ Minako says this so quickly. Like she didn't even have to think about it - an instinctive retort.
Also, what does Minako consider to be a 'proper apology'? Only god knows. ]
no subject
[He gives a weary sigh as he rubs at his head.]
I'll try to keep that in mind. At least, uh... mission accomplished?
