WHO: Anyone
WHERE: Everywhere, but near the Big Fence
WHEN: Just before sunset.

[Life has been SLICING in the pasture, good shit!! It's also been getting a lot warmer. Well, it is summer(?) spring(?) there is no calendar here don't worry about it.

But there is some SIGNFICANT heat coming from a portion of the fence and--oh. oh no. Is that Patches? Is he setting the fence on--yeah he's setting the fence on fire. Is anyone surprised??

As soon as the wood burns away, mist begins pouring into the pasture, forming into foggy, wolf-like beast. It snaps up the first sheep it sees, shaking it like a ragdoll and leaving it a messy pulp before looking for bigger prey.

But that isn't the only issue. More mist is still pouring through the broken fence, but. . .it's not forming wolves. It's just creepily, quickly, spreading across the pasture.

BUT THAT'S NOT ALL. So anyone who had those friendship stars? They begin to jingle just as the fence breaks. Then they float into the air. . .and shoot off. They're not so fast that you can't follow them, however, and they're heading to outer meadow.

SO WHAT'S HAPPENING?

1) STARS. Wanna ignore this shit and follow your star? Do so here.

2) But for real someone should probably deal with the FENCE and WOLF before Patches lets more murderwolves in.

3) Ain't got time for either of that? Away from the nonsense! Cool! The mist is still creeping about. If you happen to inhale or walk through or otherwise come in contact with the mist, you'll experience on of two effects:
A) Prey - You are suddenly overcome with emotion and extremely clingy. You want someone to comfort you-you might cry on them. You might hug them, begging them to stay with you. You just want someone there with you.

B) Predator - What is this IRRITATION. You're fussy, you're in a sour mood, and you want to know where YOUR PEOPLE ARE. You find yourself being far more protective than normal and snapping at anyone who you deem a threat, or at anyone who doesn't want to be yours.

OR YOU JUST COMPLETELY MISS THIS, IT'S FINE. It's just one wolf! How hard can this be!]

You can't.

[ grimaces, slowly unclenches his fists. time to change tack lmao ]

You don't have a way to replicate this... state, I'm pretty sure.

Oh, likely not, though I would caution against your assuming what I can and cannot do.

[that was very mildly said, considering. genuinely a caution, not a threat]

But the point stands. If there is a danger, I would wish to know about it. If there is a problem you are dealing with that has some potential resolution, I would wish to know about it.

. . .

[ Blood Fiend smiles. and... something - calm? - washes over him, almost imperceptible. his pallor remains, but his shoulders relax, a spark of mischief(?) appearing in his eyes. if he's still feeling pain, he no longer seems to be registering it. ]

I didn't take you for the type to be invested in someone's love life.

[ his voice still lacks energy, but there's now a soft, playful undertone to it. ]

[simply stares at him like. really? really? this is the tack you're going to take here, my guy? my guy who has shouted in my face about how defeatist you are at heart, at length, when you were too stressed to be dishonest? you think i am going to believe you have a love life now?]

[ heh. ]

What, the sad old cat can't like people? Kiiiinda judgmental, but you do you.

I'm gonna go relax and drink tea.

[ continues walking toward the lighthouse. thank god they're close; he can't keep this damn spell up forever, even if it's just a slight nudge. ]

[weird and rude that this guy's still keeping pace with him huh]

You arre too afraid to get close to them to allow that kind of intimacy.

[ it's very weird and rude. good thing Blood Fiend logistically can't get upset right now... lol ]

Pffft, you know a lot less than you think.

[ opens lighthouse door. tilts head at Charon, eyebrows raised ]

Do you really want to watch me drink tea? It's quite boring, I promise you.

[oh so he was right on the money. shrugging]

I could use some boring today; what can I say?

[ shrugs back! surely he can hold the baby enhancement for a little longer it's fine it's fine it's f ]

Suit yourself. Not my fault if you die of boredom.

[ shoots the couch a longing glance as he walks past it, heading upstairs to his favorite place in the pasture. if he's gonna pass out he's not doing it downstairs dear lord ]

I don't intend to, thank you.

[he's getting followed upstairs I GUESS. back to the scene of the many crimes. it'd be funny if there was randomly another dead bird in here but luckily there isn't]

[ small victories...

he plops down on a windowsill and sticks his hand in his pocket, bringing out the jar of lavender iced tea. unscrews the lid, sniffs. it smells good. ]

I'd offer you some, but I only have one of these. And you did just follow me up here like some kind of lost child.

[ get some more interesting hobbies, Charon. this isn't the first time you've followed him.

starts sipping. ]

[gives him another very level look, then settles on a different windowsill seat (Yas did you really want him an inch from tipping out of the lighthouse again?) and takes a slim book from the library out of the pocket, settling in to read]

[ he is pointedly not thinking about the other incident, tyvm. surely Charon has the capacity to learn. making the same terrible decisions twice? who would do that?

the tea is flavorful, clearly brewed with care. he'll have to thank Sonata properly later. continues sipping.

is. is Charon just gonna sit there until he's done ]

[one: he absolutely would if he felt the need to even with Death watching and revivals off. lucky that's not the case right now, eh?

two: yes, a present from Sonata is not to be wasted and Blood Fiend clearly needs the bracing drink. also he genuinely enjoys reading.]

[ charon no???

the tea is soothing enough for him to drop the enhancement by a smidgen (thank fuck). he sets the jar down beside him when finished. ]

. . .

Comfortable there?

[ he'd be fine with this usually — Charon isn't the only one that enjoys the company. but the moment he drops Enhance completely he's gonna start writhing in pain so like, ]

[lifts his eyes from the page]

Are you?

[ it's a bad idea to keep Enhance up it's a bad idea to keep Enhance up it's a bad idea to keep Enhance up bad bad bad bad bad ]

Quite.

Mm.

I'm surprised you're humoring me at all instead of taking your proposed sleep.

What was I supposed to do, shut the door in your face?

You're stonewalling hard enough that didn't seem off the table.

Control freak.

You're really going to take every possible avenue to avoid telling me straightforwardly what's going on with you, aren't you?

[ yawns, stretches, layers the calmness enhancement back on as his head starts to throb ]

I could just curl up and take my proposed sleep, if that's what you want. I really am that tired.

You don't exactly look that energized either.

I don't get in that many physical fights.

Sleep if you want. I can keep anyone else from bothering you.

[

]

Have it your way.

[ turns around, lays down. Enhance is still up.

... is Charon really gonna just stay here ]
