once upon a time
🧙 WHO: Ahiru and YOU
⚔️️ WHAT: Her first month in Avalon/continued from TDM and new prompts!
🕒 WHEN: April Catch-all
🗺️ WHERE: Around
⚠️ WARNINGS: C for cute.
Exploring Red Spring
[While Ahiru was scared and timid when she first came in, after meeting some nice people and staying with Yona, she wakes up the next day feeling much better and energetic again. She excitedly scrambles down the steps, almost falling in the process so tumbling a little, and her bright red hair is newly braided since it was all over the place the night before. Her raven is back to nesting right on top of her head, something they've decided to agree to.
Ahiru can be found in a much better mood in the inn, her bright eyes looking at everyone coming in and chomping down on some food that she was given. She eats it frantically like she hasn't had real food in awhile (she hasn't).]
This is so good!
[She mumbles happily around said meal to the nearest person, beaming at them. Later on, since she's told they won't be leaving quite yet, she decides to go exploring this town, bigger than any town she's ever seen. She skips around and ends up trying to come close to the spring, curious.
It doesn't look red though. Is that just a name?
[She asks the nearest person, too nervous to go to the water itself. She's trying to avoid reasons to be duck-ish, and falling into the spring would be that.]
Various Camelot Options
A. First Arrival
[Ahiru spent the journey from the water to Red Springs amazed at what was outside of the carriage, but this became twice as much as Camelot came into view. She leans too far out of the carriage, her mouth dropped open. She's never seen anything this big in her entire (short) life. ]
Look! Oh my god! Have you ever seen anything this amazing?
[ She says maybe a little too loudly for any person in the carriage with her, and then she hops/almost falls out of the carriage once it comes to a stop. Ahiru scrambles out and her eyes look so big, unblinking, as she swings around to take everything in. She takes off without hesitation and runs around the streets for awhile. If someone felt responsible for the girl, they could follow, she's fast but in a pretty straight line.
She's clumsy so she ends up bumping into people frequently, always saying sorry as sincerely as possible before whirling off. She might run right into someone else there, her raven getting annoying and flapping its wings at her. Ahiru goes to the castle because it's the biggest place and of course she doesn't try to get in, but she stands outside of it looking up, gaping like the tiny town duckling she is.]
Wow!
B. Exploring the town
[Ahiru does manage to get to her hotel room, which is ah-may-zing, and she constantly misses the breakfast because it's too early, which means she's often hungry. But she tries to save her coin while she figures out what next to do, so she only eats when she's really starving. She might be seen forlornly looking into restaurants, deciding whether to go in or not. She has no real concept of money so it's hard to tell what she should or should not get.
She walks the streets of Camelot until her feet hurt, checking out the museums, the theaters, all the buildings she's never heard of or seen herself. Each time she looks as impressed and wide-eyed as the last building. Ahiru often looks like she's longing to go into them, and yet seems to stop herself from doing so, always on the outskirts, too hesitant to join in.
She sometimes gets distracted by her little magic box, trying to understand the messages on it and failing, which means she definitely crashes right into multiple people while focused on it. She trips, she maybe knocks some things over, all the while cringing.]
Sorrrrrryyyyyyyyyy.
C. Dancing at night
[Ahiru is terrible at getting up in the morning but she has a hard time sleeping too. Her room is so nice, nicer than anything she's had, but her head doesn't stop burning hard. She thinks about Fakir, about their world in danger. What can she do? She saw a nice little indoor pond nearby the hotel that seemed like a good quiet secluded place to go, especially late at night. She doesn't think about whether it's smart to be alone anywhere.
There she plays some classical music on her little magic box, one of the few things she's learned, and in the quiet Ahiru dances ballet. She's not Tutu anymore, she doesn't have her advanced skills, but as she learned as a duck, she can dance even as an amateur and enjoy it. Her form is not great, but there is a genuine passion for it. It's calming.]
School Time!
[When Ahiru is told that people can go to school instead of work, she eagerly begged to do just that. She doesn't know how to do anything helpful, and she's told she gets money for it. For just going to school! It's so exciting! She always loved ballet school but hasn't ever learned anything else. She's nervous though, once she finally gets there. At one point you might find her looking too nervous to talk to others, hovering in the corner caught in her thoughts about being a stupid duck, not a human student.
But like her quick and ever-changing personality, some days she's enormously friendly and outgoing, chattering or introducing herself to new people. While Ahiru tries to pay close attention in school ... well, sometimes she does get distracted, not being the best person at focusing. She might get in trouble for that a few times, lost in her thoughts and daydreams.
When it comes to magic, she has no idea how to use that. Even after a few days of school, Ahiru seems to be struggling to use her magic, frustratedly looking at her hands and pulling at her hair sometimes.]
Why won't you wooooork?
