🕒 WHEN: March. :|b
🗺️ WHERE: All over Camelot and stuff.
⚠️ WARNINGS: None for now, will update as needed!! /o/

i. Sir Fuzzlerton the Cad

[Well, this is quite the hilarious quest, actually. Ochako actually was giggling about it as she read the description on her phone's app, but decided to try it anyway. It seems harmless and simple enough, even if it is a bit time consuming... Still, what else has she got to do today? Nothing, really...so why not help out? Besides, she really could use the reward money, and it's almost like being given meager tasks as a Hero to do on the daily!! She's starting to get used to doing things like this, really, and it keeps Ochako busy.

So, as she preps herself to be out for the day looking for Sir Fuzzlerton, Ochako stares hard at the picture that his owner put of him on the quest descriptions, and tries to memorize it. Maybe she should contact one of her friends, too? Mm...this doesn't seem like anything at least one of them would partake in, and to be fair, they're probably doing it or the other quests posted as well. Maybe she'll run into them? Shoving a few bottles of water into her pack, and a bento box of greens (listen, it's decent bait for a waskly wabbit) soon after, she shoulders her bag and heads out to the first of many new bunny cafes that opened up, heading to the staff first to ask questions and if they've noticed an, um...f-frisky rabbit hopping about.]

He looks like this, and belongs to someone looking to get him back... Would it be alright if I looked around a little bit? I promise I won't bother any of the other rabbits, or customers, while I'm here!!

ii. Run Snagglefoot Run

[Now this is more the kind of quest Ochako is used to. She's not against doing the simpler, more mundane ones, but the adrenaline rush she feels when stopping an actual thief is few and far between. It actually makes her feel somewhat like she's back in Musutafu, fighting crime and stopping villains alongside her senpai, Nejire, and the Dragoon Hero, Ryukyu. Still...this particular thief is a tricky one to get a grip on, and Ochako is definitely getting frustrated. Man, it'd be pretty simple if she had her quirk, or her hero gear, but alas...nothing of the sort. What she does have, however, is a large and very fast running dire wolf familiar, who shows up at last when Ochako calls for her.]

Aludra, I need you!! [The white wolf seems to blinks into existence rather suddenly, its glittering coat like starlight as it curiously peers at its partner, then folds its ears back as it takes in her appearance. Ochako is winded, having been chasing Snagglefoot for several miles and always just missing him. Damnit...he's probably got his greedy little mitts on so many other stolen goods, too!] Please, this time it's important - there's a criminal about and I can't catch him on foot. I-I know...hah...you don't like me riding you, b-but...I really...r-really need your help!

[The wolf is fast, Ochako has seen it before - when Aludra runs she looks like the tail of a shooting star. It was part of how the brunette figures out the wolf's name was that of a star. The star making up the 'tail' in the constellation Canis Major...the greater dog. It's actually rather hysterical, that the dire wolf is so connected to space like that. Sort of like Ochako is, heh. They really were meant for each other. Hopefully, that'll mean the large beast will let the girl ride her...which she has not let happen since arriving in Avalon.]

Please. You know I wouldn't ask otherwise... And it'd be just this once, until we catch him. O-Or if you can somehow make me faster, I-- [Her phone buzzes. It's an alert. The thief is headed for the Red Spring. Shit, she's running out of time!]

iii. Farmers-R-Us

[Ochako never really done this sort of work before - there's not a lot of farmland where she lives, not unless you really go towards the more rural towns and villages, away from the major cities in Japan. She's of course been to farms before, obviously, but never really done work there. Still, it's honest work, and after some pointers from the farmhands, it's easy enough. Laborious, definitely, but Ochako's not against working up a good sweat!! It's a bit like early morning training, and a damn good work out to boot. She'll be doing this for a good, long while...

Hence why she's sort of wearing a lot of her usual workout gear as she goes about, turning soil removing roots and rocks, and hauling feed to the animals. She's pretty dusty towards the middle of the afternoon, sighing a bit as she heads back into the field from her break to take a drink and just rest a while. Breaks are important, after all!! No need to be overheating, or overworking, to the point of real fatigue! As she picks up her hoe to get back to work, she notices one of the farmer's dogs poking at something a fair bit away in the brush. Uh, oh...that better not be a rabbit den. Ol' Fido's gonna get is big trouble if he decided to attack any bunnies this month...]

Hey, hey, none of that!! Don't you do anything naughty over there, you! [Spooked by getting caught (and the prospect of getting punished), the dog races away, and Ochako is hurrying over quickly toward what it left. Sadly for her, though, Ochako has the marvelous misfortune to be right in the middle of a nest of pixies as they emerge and make the assumption that their home was disturbed and destroyed by the girl. Oh boy. Zipping about, clawing and biting at her arms and face, pulling at her hair, Ochako squeaks with horror and tries to swat them away, racing to try and take shelter...anywhere, really.]

AAAHH, G-GO AWAY!! I DIDN'T DO ANYTHING!! I WAS JUST TRYING TO HELP KEEP THE DOG AWAY!!! EYAAH! OW, OW, STOP BITING!!

iv. Wildcard!!

[None of these prompts suit your fancy? Or want to do something specific and not quest-oriented? Reach out to me via PM or at MelonFlavored to plot something out together!]

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

[ Momo has never been to a farm before, let alone worked on one, but she's not one to shy away from a little hard work. (Even if she does detest the whole dirtiness of farm work.) Working alongside her friend has made the day worth it, to her, and so when she hears Ochako's voice crying out in destress, she drops whatever she's doing immediately and runs over to investigate, only to find her friend swarmed by a cloud of angry pixies.

Thinking quickly, Momo calls upon the lessons Dust taught her about wind magic, and performs a complicated gesture to summon a gust of wind that will hopefully blow the pixies up and away from Ochako. ]

Stay away from her!

[The wind gust most definitely does do some work, scattering the pixies on the, well...wind. Ochako squeaks as the gale whips her hair and clothes about, but she's far larger and heavier than the tiny fae creatures, so she remains firmly in place, guarding her face and head. With the majority of the swarm having the brains to know there's now an actual threat, they flitter away, hissing and spitting curses in the two girl's direction. One of the remaining pixies even attempts a very minor curse - or, well...really, just a hex - at Ochako, and--

Turns her hair a very wild, electric blue. Ah...]

H-Hey!! I didn't do anything! I was trying to keep the dog away, you--! [Ooooh...if she were less kind than she is, she may have thrown a rock at one of the fairies, but they seem satisfied with their hex and zip away before the girl can change her mind.]

[ Momo doesn't know what did or didn't happen to provoke such an attack from the pixies. But regardless, she's on the side of her friend. And the retaliatory changing of Ochako's hair to a bright blue is just petty and childish, in her opinion, whether she did anything to deserve it or not.

Momo shoots a glare in the direction of the retreating pixies, then turns her attention to Ochako. It's... kind of weird? Blue hair in and of itself is not anything unusual for Momo to see, but seeing it on her normally-brunette friend is a bit jarring. ]

Are you alright? They didn't hurt you, did they?

[When Momo looks back to Ochako, she's looking herself over, fingers running through the now blue strands of her hair with a concerned scowl. Th-This better not be permanent... Though blue hair is indeed not a huge issue, she would very much like her natural hair color to be a thing, thanks. Ochako liked her chestnut brown hair, thank you very much!]

Not more than just little bites and scratches... [Which she'll rub some alcohol on later, to make sure they don't get infected or anything.] Thanks for your help, Momo-chan... I don't know what I did to upset those dumb fairies - I really was just trying to make sure the dog wasn't doing anything bad, you know.

[She's really not the bad guy here, friendo. :(]

I know you were... I think they just were a little quick to lay blame on whoever was nearby.

[ It's really just a case of wrong place, wrong time. And poor Ochako got caught in the crossfire. Momo shakes her head, sighing softy and trying to think of a way she can help her friend. ]

After we're done here, let's go back to Camelot together. I'll look in the library to see what I can find out about reversing pixie enchantments.

Mmh...so I've heard...

[Fairies and pixies - and fae in general, really - are quite capricious. Even her own familiar, which is considered fae, has been acting up and quite mischievous from time to time. Though she's glad it wasn't anything worse than some blue hair she got cursed with... Sometimes the fae's so-called 'pranks' can turn pretty damn violent, or just plain villainous. There's a good reason that older fairytales and such were to avoidant and even fearful of them.]

Mm, thanks again, Momo-chan. I-If not, I guess I could always just...dye my hair back to brown... [It'd be annoying, but it is an option as well.] H-How bad does it look? Is it really terrible? Please, be honest...

N-no, it doesn't look bad! [ Really, it's no more outrageous than Kirishima's bright red hair, or Shinsou's purple hair. ] I think the blue... suits you!

[ Okay, that might be a stretch. ]

...Momo-chan, I said be honest. [Come on, friendo, even Ochako won't believe the last part was a very blatant lie. She huffs a little and shakes her head.]

Eh, but...I suppose it'll have to, whether I like it or not, until we get it changed back. Come on, let's go toward the farmhouse, maybe they'll know what to do.

S-sorry... [ She did ask her for honesty, didn't she? ] But it really doesn't look all that bad! If I didn't know any better, and was just meeting you for the first time, I might think it was natural!

[ It's only because she's so used to Ochako with auburn hair that it seems out of place.

But Ochako's right. They have work to do, and they can't let an impropmtu dye session interrupt that. ]

Mm, that's a good idea! I'm sure if the pixies live nearby, the farm owners must have run-ins with them all the time.

You really think so? Mmh...maybe.

[I mean, it's really not the worst thing that those tricksy pixies could have done, in all honesty. Some of the stories she's heard or read have been so, so much worse...

Regardless, the duo make their way to the farmhouse and shop, hailing one of the workers there who takes one look at Ochako and snickers loudly but seems sympathetic to her plight, when the once chocolate-haired youth sulks. She tells Ochako that she lucked out a bit, and that the effects usually wear off on their own, but the fae magic might damage her hair if left untreated...so gives her a big jug of goat's milk and tells her to soak her hair it that for at least thirty minutes before washing it with normal products - organic ones infused with honey are preferred (and the clerk definitely does try to peddle some of their own product, of course) - and in three days it should wash out and the girl's hair will be soft and silky.]

Huh...fairies really like this sort of stuff, don't they? ["Whyd'ja think they nest 'round here, girlie?"]

[ Don't think that Momo misses how the farmer tries to sell Ochako on their own honey-based hair products. While Momo is all about supporting the local economy, she does think this kind of peddling is in poor taste. ]

Well, at least now we know how to return you to normal. And goat's milk is good for making your hair soft and manageable, anyway. So you might even make it out of this having benefited, rather than lost anything!

[It...really is, given the circumstance, but Ochako says nothing much to it, and remains polite as she can, declining the offer but thanking the farmhand for their help nonetheless. She takes the product (making sure the goatmilk is free, which it is, considering that Ochako got hexed on the property), bows graciously, then walks with Momo back toward home.]

Mm, and there's plenty more here than just what I need for three days. If it's really fresh, we can make a lot of tasty things with it!! [Or the other girls could use it for their hair, too, if they really want.]

[Open] - Gonna Triumph!!

E-I-E-I-Oh no, there are pixies everywhere!
