Drunk Cards

[crittersheep]

WHO: Some sheep and you
WHERE: Right in the middle of the pasture
WHEN: Day 83, afternoon

[Two red sheep and one lilac-colored sheep are having a picnic in the shade of a tree. There is a smorgasbord of finger foods laid out over the huge blankets spread over the grass, but even more notable is the frankly unreasonable amount of drinks, both alcoholic and non.]

[They beckon you over as you're passing by.]

"Psst..."

Did you know? Did you know?


There was a demon here just now!


Yeeeeeeeeah...! We ...played a game of *hic* cards! With the drankssssssss...


When we beat him at cards he left all his stuff behind.


Hey! You! Yeah, youuuu! Wanna drink some cards and play some hooch? We got some uuuuuuuuuuh sandwiches too. *hic*


We can't drink this all, so we might as well share.


We got extra cards, too.


*hic*

. . . he wounded you?

[poisonista]

[ ... ]


I'm not sure what I did to deserve those wounds, but because he was hurt by something I did, then he was hurt. All I can do is heal and make sure it never happens again.

If I were in his place and as hurt as I felt him to be, I'd never want to see me again, personally.

[ He gestures to the bracelet he has on, one with a bow and arrow, heart and dagger and apple charm, from after the memoryshare event. ]

But he's kind, even when he's being so cruel. And I refuse to let anyone hurt me more than I allow it.

[arrowace]

Minuet says . . . it may not be possible, to love without hurting. Not entirely. If that’s true, then . . . one can not be . . . loved without also being hurt, sometimes.

[poisonista]

Perhaps, but love is also knowing to set your boundaries. Though in this case, as I said, I've no idea what escalated things, and all I know is he was hurt. My own boundary is not allowing myself to feel worse until I know why. He's worth making that effort for.

[ He sounds determined, though he has been pretty depressed, was even when he helped Mute out with fishquest.

He's just a very good actor. ]

Anyway... it's nothing to be concerned about. Things will be alright eventually. Or they won't. I can't say. I'd rather focus on the now.

[arrowace]

[ TOO LATE THEY ARE CONCERNED. but also. have difficulty with Complex Emotions, which this feels like it could be. So maybe they will let it go . . . maybe. ]

Mm . . .

[poisonista]

[ Just going to wrap the handkerchief around the plushy head and turn it into a wrap. Frog plushy head wrap. ]


Are you hungry?

[arrowace]

Not really . . .

[ but maybe this is an “accept care” situation so ]

Uhm, thirsty? Maybe . . .

[poisonista]

... have you ever tried a smoothie before?


[ Since they're near Bluebell now, he'll look through whatever fruit they have out to pick some. This is indeed an "accept care" situation!

... and Belle doesn't want to speak in a way that makes it look like he's blaming Rubato for anything- because he isn't, and wouldn't. They're not home anymore, he can't expect to have Rubato look out for him and needs to do it himself. ]

[arrowace]

Smoothies are . . . sometimes alright. I dislike berries.

[ but Lily has peaches and plums! These are legal for use. ]

[poisonista]

Do you? Why is that?

[ Going to magic the basket he has just for this and go to collect whatever non-berry fruit they have. Rose has apples and I forget what else. ]

Some berries are quite good for your body, even if you don't eat them.

[arrowace]

For poor performance . . . we were given Good Berries instead . . . of full rations.

[poisonista]

How unfortunate. Then I'd rather not force you on that.

[ Sets plushy on his shoulder. ]

Let's see what we can gather, then.

[ They can pick some fruit and return to Bluebell! ]
