🗺️ WHERE: various places...
⚠️ WARNINGS: none at the moment!

i. the obligatory training prompt (tm)

[leave it to felix to find the training yard closest to the newcomers' hotel? leave it to felix to spend a good chunk of his evenings there, sequestered in the back corner as he swings his sword about. like, forget magic. seriously. felix wasn't terribly fond of it to begin with; the thunder magic he'd practiced in his own world was a tool to use when swords simply would not cut it (haha), but to have that stripped away and replaced with... magic dealing with animals...

...well! that's just insulting, really—which is why felix is here, perfecting familiar— and actually useful—techniques. he can and will ignore his new abilities for as long as he needs to, thanks! who needs them!

but others are here practicing their own magic—and maybe an errant spell flies a bit farther than someone expects? maybe it just so happens to breeze right past felix—who promptly jerks back, sword raised as his eyes snap right to the culprit. hey!]

Just what do you think you're doing?

[rude, as ever—but answer him, serrah!!! or face the consequences, ie... an ever-sharpening Look.]

ii. that's one bad bunny

[okay, so maybe... animal magic can be useful, at times. possibly. not that felix is thrilled by this animal-related quest, once he figures out how to work this new-fangled phone of his and finds it at the top o' the list; like, he has no idea what pop-up bunny cafés are and he no real desire to find out, but! but. a man must eat, which means that a man must earn some money—and really, how hard can finding a single rabbit be?

answer: incredibly difficult, apparently. it's not like felix has paid much attention to rabbits before this, aside from the odd one bagged while hunting, but he soon finds out that rabbits... simultaneously look very different and very similar. telling them apart is so difficult? and speaking to them is so—well. he's yet to master the art of conversing with animals, given how recently he's arrived; sometimes the meaning of various, ah, words flickers in and out of his understanding, but...

...but. catch felix hugo fraldarius, swords strapped at his hip, crouched before a rather cute-looking rabbit in a bustling café? scowling down at it as it blinks back up at him, nose twitching, because goddess above—]

I didn't ask about his—performance. That's hardly— [aaAH. let him just bring a hand up to scrub at his (reddening) face, trying (and failing) to remain Calm before he snaps:] Stop playing around!

[why are rabbits so shameless! holy shit. please help him... or fuss at him for raising his voice at such an adorable little critter.]

iii. time for some r&r... or else

[hey, so quick question: what the heck is yoga? felix would really like to know, thanks, because as felix glances at the people around him, so many of which are bending into seemingly possible shapes—oh, he is so lost. this is very much not his idea of a good time.

but someone cheerfully informs him that he has to, like, chill out and enjoy the vibes, man! that he's totally stuck here until he masters five of these simple poses—and while felix does, in fact, argue with this person? while felix does, in fact, check out this shield, banging his fist against it like an idiot until he realizes there's no way in hell he's going to bust through? felix has things that he would like to do.

and thus felix is soon attempting—attempting—the current pose. it's going just as well as one might expect? i.e. felix is kneeling, doing his best to bend backward without removing his sword belt, or his coat, or anything else that is currently hindering his progress. he's stubborn like that—and maybe this results in him accidentally elbowing the person next to him?? hope they don't expect an apology, because all that can be heard is a muttered curse.

or maybe the person beside him is also struggling, in which case: hey. hello. as felix tries to bend that much farther backward, he mutters, darkly:]

They expect us to break our backs? [PFH.] This is ridiculous.

[people just aren't meant to fold this way, okay!!]

iv. wildcard

[feel free to mess with these prompts as you see fit, but if they're not workin' for you? hit me up over at tuchanka or shoot me a pm and i will write a custom starter! we can tackle the other quests or pick some silly stuff from the tdm, because i'm hungry for cr... let's go, gang...]
