Staring at the Blank Page Before You, Open Up the Dirty Window (March Catch-All)

🧙 WHO: Makoto Kino and YOU!
⚔️ WHAT: Catch-all for TDM overflow, quests, and what have you!
🕒 WHEN: Throughout March
🗺️ WHERE: In and around Camelot, the farming district, and the Red Spring Inn
⚠️ WARNINGS: N/A



A. Reaching For Something in the Distance (Training)

[Being pulled into a whole other world to help save it and other worlds? Time stopping back home on top of it? The high stakes are disturbing, but honestly not too surprising anymore. Makoto and her friends have saved the Earth, the solar system, the time line from certain doom quite a few times by now. Losing her connection to Jupiter, her strength and ability to transform? That… that stings, almost like losing a sense. But she at least has Elemental magic, it turns out, so she should at least still control lightning. And earth, and water, and air, quite a few other things actually. Really weird, but... comforting in a way. It makes her feel like the girls are lending her their strength.

Makoto shakes herself out of her thoughts drifting like that, turning her attention to the large bear at her side, the fur a glowing jade green and with short forks of lightning arcing from it. Still Makoto doesn’t seem harmed at all as she gives him a light pet between the ears.]


Alright, Kaede… third time’s the charm.

[She squares up her stance, takes a deep breath in, out, in… and punches towards the target with a loud] HA!

[What she’s trying to do is zap it with lightning. What happens is… giving the target a splash of water, fit for a kiddie pool.]

Oh come on!


B. So Close You Can Almost Taste It (Sir Fuzzlerton the Cad)

[This quest should have been a piece of cake, really. Sit at a café, look around for a rabbit fitting Sir Fuzzlerton’s description, enjoy some tea and adorable desserts while she’s at it. If he’s not there, finish said tea and cake (brisky though, she knows when to focus at least) and repeat. Simple, fun, cute task… the first couple times.

By the third café though, Makoto’s limiting herself to a turkey sandwich, a small salad, and a cup of herbal tea, no matter how tempting that mille-feuille looks… or the strawberry tart… or the pink Swiss roll cake… or the chocolate gateau… or the lattes with the really, REALLY beautiful foam art. She knows she’d only end up with a caffeine rush and crush, or an upset stomach. It’s actually rather packed in here, so you might end up seated at a table right next to hers, or even across from her table for one if you’re up for it.]


Ugh… you’d think there’d be *one* white rabbit with a brown left ear and brown spectacles, but nooo…

[She’s groaning to herself more than anything, but feel free to chime in too.]


C. Release Your Inhibitions (Farmers-R-Us)

[While Makoto’s never done actual farm work before, she is strong (still quite above average even if her super strength is gone) and knows a lot about gardening. Any time she can work with plants is a good time for her. She tries to help out wherever she’s needed, whether it’s hauling bags of seed, wheeling carts with water jugs, breaking the ground and making rows, or gathering up hay for baling, Mako can be found pretty much anywhere around a given farm. Maybe not working as quickly as she’d like… heck maybe at one point she could use a water break, she’s not used to pacing herself *this* much. She should be fine, right?]


D. Feel the Rain On Your Skin, No One Else Can Feel It For You (Wildcard)

[[Got something in mind aside from the prompts listed? Hit me up on Plurk or message Makoto’s journal to plot things out!]]

[In most situations, Robyn would probably laugh, but this little bird is clearly taking this duel seriously. So of course, that means she has to take it seriously as well. She takes hold of her own crossbow, which she was carrying on her back.]

Fine. We'll each pick a target for the other to shoot at. Whoever hits theirs the best out of three wins. Deal?

[Robyn takes a deep breath to steady herself. Admittedly, she's a little nervous despite the absurdity of this whole situation; she's normally a pretty good shot, but she can still miss when her nerves get the better of her.]

You can choose the target first. [She feels it's only fair, since she suggested the challenge.]

[Robyn can usually handle targets that are twenty, maybe thirty feet away, but something that far away is definitely a challenge. Still, she said she'd do this, and she can't back out now.]

...alright. [She takes a few steps towards the target, but only a few so that it won't look like she's just trying to get closer. She loads an arrow onto her crossbow while still keeping an eye on that slender branch, and then takes aim, careful not to touch the trigger before she's ready.

A few moments later, she pulls the trigger. The arrow flies towards the target...and just barely manages to slice the offshoot right off the branch.

[Robyn looks confident in the shot she just made, though inwardly she feels a bit jittery. That's probably the farthest target she's ever shot at, but she does feel a little better now that she actually hit it.]

Right, then. My challenge to you is... [She points at the same tree, perhaps a little more dramatically than necessary.] The knot on that same tree.

[Said knot is big enough that it's still easy to spot, even at night, but it's still pretty far away.]

[Robyn had been holding her breath as the little sniper penguin had taken the shot, and she had to give it points for trying to shoot with its crossbow over its shoulder. But it seemed the fairy was pushing its luck a little too much, since it resulted in a miss.

She's a little caught off guard when Makoto runs over to hug her, but she takes it graciously and even hugs the older girl back before turning to the frost fairies.

So...we've had the duel. That means you hold up your end of it, right?

Thanks, but...well, we did both bring them here with the dancin'. And you're better at that than I am.

[It's only fair to give credit where credit is due.]
