If you go down to the woods today... (open log)

πŸ§™ WHO: Della Duck & You!
βš”οΈοΈ WHAT: After the Animal Mage Hunt last month, Della is throwing a small shindig to help them all relax. Food, games, face paint, and awkward questions for everyone. You don't have to be an animal mage/animal person to come, everyone's invited!
πŸ•’ WHEN: First Weekend of the Month.
πŸ—ΊοΈ WHERE: Brocéliande, a.k.a the local forest.
⚠️ WARNINGS: N/A.

Delightful Decorations
Do you miss your ears and tail from the temporary spell the month before? There’s a box to slightly cure that! It’s filled with fake animal decorations including cat-ear headbands, fluffy fox tails to clip on your pants, feathery wings to hang on your shoulders, and so on. If you’re feeling a bit more colorfully creative, there’s also face paint! Pick a partner to practice on!

Food Festivities
What’s a party without grub? There’s a big wooden table surrounded by little wooden chairs so you can get your snack on. In keeping with the theme, there are cookies shaped like cat-heads, sandwiches cut to resemble webbed duck feet, and plenty of veggie platters for those who feel they can’t eat what they resembled for a while. At least the tea is normal. Feel free for your character to have brought along their own food to share as well!

Games Galore
Why sit around when you can get some exercise? The easy to play Pin The Tail On The Griffin, where you’re blindfolded and have to pin the tail on the paper griffin on a tree… and hopefully no one else. Or make Tag way more exciting by trying to grab one of the fake tails from earlier off of your friend’s butt! Since you’re in the woods, there’s also a contest to see who can climb trees the fastest! The prize is bragging rights. And maybe a cupcake.

AMA - Animal Edition
Let’s face it -when you’re surrounded by all kinds of new species, you get curious. Here’s your chance to clear the air and learn something new – there’s a big red chair with a label on the back – ASK ME ANYTHING. Anyone who sits in it is volunteering to answer whatever is asked of them. Of course, there’s no guarantee it’ll be the truth… you trolls know who you are.

As a reminder, according to our lovely locations page, “It is cautioned against magic in these woods, as the mystical forces within tend to interfere and cause them to go awry.” We definitely wouldn’t want that happening, wink wink nudge nudge.

That's it?

[That can't be all it takes, can it?]

You must be pretty good at kickin', then. I don't think I can kick that hard.
reloves: (β™₯ i want to be with you)

Aww, come on! You can't just put yourself down like that!

[ .. or maybe it's more like Robyn is being realistic, rather than actually putting herself down.. but Minako seems this convinced of the other's kicking ability, having some sort of natural confidence in it. ]

I bet you can give a real mean kick when you try! [ She winks at Robyn. ] All rebels can!

Well, that is somethin' I've never tried...

[Not that she's ever been in a situation where kicking was the only option. She's generally used to just giving people the slip, though since she got here she's gotten better at direct confrontations.]

I'm good at shootin' things down with me crossbow, though. Father taught me all about how to aim.

[ A crossbow, huh? Minako supposes that does make sense. It fits the whole medieval-esque aesthetic, and it does seem like Robyn's world is a little closer to that time than it is to Minako's own time.. ]

Well, it's not like an arrow wouldn't do the trick either!

[ Minako mimics pulling back a bowstring and firing an arrow with her hands. ]

You could make something embarrassing fall down on an annoying person!

Oh, I already did that before I got here. I saw some bullies makin' fun of a boy, so I shot a flag over their heads and it fell on them so he could get away.

[It also made a handy distraction for the guards when the street kids decided to steal the flag, and she could slip through the gates while the guards were chasing them.]
reloves: (♀ we always held hands together)

[personal profile] reloves 2021-09-24 07:05 am (UTC)(link)
Good! That's perfect!

[ Minako clasps her hands together, clearly excited. This is exactly the kind of rebellion she just loves to see, especially in girls. ]

You've got just the right kind of spirit, you know. I really can't understand how some people can see bad stuff happening and just do nothing about it! We're all in this life together, so we really have to help each other out.

[personal profile] wolfhunted 2021-09-27 02:30 am (UTC)(link)
Really?

[She's already felt that before, but it's nice to hear someone tell her. Nobody would, back home.]

I have a friend back home I'm tryin' to help. I want to help people here too, if I can.
reloves: (β™₯ my love; that time)

[personal profile] reloves 2021-09-27 12:28 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Robyn seems to have a good sort of spirit about this, and it makes Minako smile as she looks at the other. ]

Well, that's why we're all here, right? [ That's the explanation Minako got when she first dropped in here, after all. That all of them were brought here to help out in this place.

She guesses it makes sense why Robyn was brought here then. ]


Besides, you have a lot of talents! Like shooting things, and climbing trees! I'm sure there's so much you can do to help out people here. Besides, having passion and spirit for it means you're already half of the way there!

I suppose. I know I can definitely do a lot more here than I can back home. Here, nobody's told me that a girl can't be a hunter or that I can't leave town.

[Or that she can only work in the scullery, but she'd rather not bring that up right now.]

I bet there's a lot you can do here, too.
