3rd Feather - November Catchall [Open]
🧙 WHO: Crow and You!
⚔️️ WHAT: Flap Veg Quest and some TDM prompts
🕒 WHEN: Throughout November
🗺️ WHERE: Various locations
⚠️ WARNINGS: None at the moment
[Quest] Flap Veg
[ Crow saw both requests. One to protect the butterfly lettuce and the other to steal it. He considers both, but it doesn't seem wise to be the offensive when he has no idea how outmatched he'd be. It's better to be on the defense, but there are still disadvantages there too. Whatever, how hard can guarding lettuce be?
So Crow guards over the fluttering produce armed with his guitar, in case things do go awry. Though as miraculous as flying lettuce is, it's also quite boring to watch. So Crow may--may not be nodding off in the middle of his shift. This could be a good chance to steal some lettuce!]
A. The Floor is Lava!
This is insane!
[Maybe this is someone's idea of a sick joke, but Crow perceives it as the best obstacle course ever! He stands at the doorframe leading to what looks like a living room. The room looks fully furnished, despite the obvious fact that the floor is full of magma, but the furniture doesn't seem to be scorched. Still, he can feel the heat radiating from it, and it does seem to appear realistic with how it bubbles and swirls around like boiling stew.
Crow peeks around the room, trying to map out how he would get across. There are various things they can use as footings like the coffee table, sofa, and armchairs. There are a few bookcases along the walls that maybe they could knock over or even the curtains they could swing from.
He bounces on his heels, ready to take the first leap inside. Finally, he turns to his comrade, seeing how they felt about this.]
Should we stick together? Or go separate ways and meet on the other side?
B. Hungry No More
I. [Crow enjoyed watching those videos. So much that they encouraged him to help the cause, and also experiment with cloning the food. It's an issue he firmly stands behind because no one should have to wonder where their next meal is. So he starts to play around with a few recipes. Some didn't even work, but Crow keeps trying. He follows some videos to a T, but ultimately he decides to be a little heavy-handed towards the end. Unfortunately, this effort causes the food to multiply at a quite alarming rate. Crow stands there stunned at how fast his food is replicating, before long it flattens him against the wall. The rocker couldn't even move an inch from the sheer weight of the accumulating vegetable, why did he think it was a good idea to clone a pumpkin?! All he could do is yell out for help, hoping someone could hear him.]
Is anyone out there?! I'm being crushed! Crushed to death by pumpkins!!
II. [ Somehow he manages to escape death's cold grasp after the first mishap, but this time will be different. He gives the recipe another go, this time choosing a carrot to experiment on. Yet, Crow actually messes up the recipe again, but not only does it multiply, but the vegetable also starts sprouting arms and legs. Not long there's a small army of carrots menacingly stalking towards him.]
This is why I don't do science experiments!
[He tries to get rid of them, pulling out his guitar, so he can hack the produce into bits. The sharp edge of his guitar splits a few of them in half. Crow watches in horror as the monster carrots regenerate, before replicating into doubles.]
Shit!
[He doesn't even know how to fix this either. All Crow could do is seek help, but from whom? Maybe you're lucky enough to bump into Crow as he tries to outrun some mutated carrots.]
C. Magical Flu
[He's been feeling under the weather for a few days. The normally energetic hedgehog finds himself just wanting to sleep all day. His body feels weak and heavy. He also constantly feels cold. He hopes he's not getting...sick?! He should probably stay inside and reserve his energy, but he figures a walk might cure his lethargy. Big mistake!
He walks around Camelot, but he doesn't feel any better. Instead, his nose feels a bit itchy now. He covers his nose for the inevitable sneeze to follow.]
ACHOO!
[ Unbeknowst to Crow some of his dark magic leaks out and hits a person nearby. The innocent bystander's clothes flip backward, so all the fastenings are at the person's back instead of the front. Someone's going to have trouble getting out of their clothes. He sneezes again a horse gets hit by the stray magic, the stallion's legs start to wiggle about as if made of jelly. The redhead notices weird things are happening around him, but he's not aware that he's the cause. Since Crow's magic consists of jinxes and enchantments, he'll affect people with mild annoyances.]
Huh? What is up with everyone today?
[Someone stop him before he creates an even bigger mess!]
D. Paralysis, paralysis, paralysis again
[ Crow seems like a pretty confident person, but he actually has some insecurities as well. A wandering sleep demon picks up on it as the redhead sleeps, entering his body and creating a nightmare of his own inner demons. On the outside, Crow is tossing and turning, muttering to himself and clutching his blanket tightly around him.
Though within his dream, he sees his father. At least, a dark silhouette of the grumpy hedgehog. The shadowy figure starts to belittle him, just like he always did.]
So, you came crawling back? That precious dream of yours ended up being a failure, didn't it?
[ Crow could feel those words affecting him, making him feel small.] N-no, it didn't! ShinganCrimsonZ has played at many venues and we have a fanbase---!
But you haven't made it to the top of Midi City's music charts, yet?
N-no, but it's only a matter of time! Just a little bit more and I'll prove to you that I have what it takes!
You don't have what it takes. You're difficult to work with! You're self-centered! Bad attitude, too! You don't have the ambition to see it through! When are you going to learn to accept your place? You've come from generations of dairy farmers, that's all you'll ever be.
[Crow can feel each of those words anchoring him down. Normally, he would fight back. Argue that those words aren't true at all, but his voice gets lost in his throat. He can't deny it, maybe he's right?]

no subject
Obviously! But clearly I can't leave you to do it alone. I'm going with you! Now lead the way!
no subject
You're coming with me? You sure that's safe?
[ Though, she does have that mask on, maybe she'll be okay. He starts walking forward, ready to leave the scene since he's the one causing trouble.]
Well, I can't complain too much. It's not every day a pretty girl wants to be my escort.
no subject
[ Yeah, she's probably going to lecture him all the live long day. ]
no subject
[He sighs dejectedly. He's not going to deny it, but it's so boring to be cooped up inside!]
I just get restless when I'm in my room for long periods of time! Don't you get like that too?
no subject
[ Just... dodging anything related to her, yessir. ]
no subject
No! Usually I'll practice my music or work on vocals in my spare time, but I don't have the energy and I don't want to strain my voice. Otherwise, I'm checking on what's happening on Social Media! Have you seen any of those videos going around? Aren't they wild?
[ Oh, did she dodge the question from earlier? Crow didn't notice, but that only means he'll press Maribelle even more to have a proper conversation.]
no subject
Those videos are a bad influence! They're encouraging people to show off their illness!
no subject
[Did she even watch any? He bets not!]
Some of them are pretty funny! I don't think they encourage anyone to flaunt their illness, at the end of the day, it's a person's decision to be an idiot!
[Crow, of course, lumps himself in that group.]
no subject
[ Siiigh. ]
But as long as I'm taking care of you, I won't let you make any such decisions!
no subject
[Not many people will go out of their way to tend to a sick person especially when they cause mayhem in town.]
Even so, you don't have a reason to help me, besides stopping me from causing any more trouble.
no subject
[ She's not upright, she is PROPER. Harumph! ]
Hmph. But insult me all you like, it won't get you out of this!
no subject
[ Okay, okay! Maybe the delivery wasn't the best, but he had good intentions.]
And I'm not trying to get out of anything! Although...I do feel another sneeze coming on! Maybe, you should run for cover!
[Who knows what might happen if he sneezes on her.]
no subject
[ She begins digging around her person for a hanky. ]
no subject
[While Maribelle searches for a handkerchief, Crow covers his nose with his shirt. It's the closes thing he could think of since he doesn't want to contaminate his hands. He sneezes, but the spell still manages to get through, transforming his clothes to be full of spikes. Good luck getting any closer to Crow.]
no subject
Gah! ... Are you hurt?! Are you bleeding anywhere?!
no subject
[You'd think he might be used to spikes being a hedgehog, but he's not used to having them in this form.]
Just be careful! I don't want you to be nicked by these! Is there some quick remedy for the magical flu? Like some kind of experimental elixir or something?!
[Because this ailment is getting old real fast!]
no subject
Now keep walking! We need to get you inside, so at least everyone else can be safe!
no subject
[Crow groans to himelf. He hates being sick so much!
Though, he does as Maribelle tells him, and keeps walking! She's right the faster they get out of the streets, the fewer people he'll affect. He tries his best not to bump into the blonde, he'd hate to prick her.]
It's not that much farther!
[The redhead did move away from the inn since it was starting to get a little cramp. Crow decided to get a small cottage, something easier to manage than a larger home.]
