WHO: everyone!
WHERE: the pasture
WHEN: day 22, all day

[so you're taking in the sights and sounds and smells of the fun activities and food of the festival that's going on right now. you're probably having a great time putting off all the concerns and worries and totally aren't overwhelmed or anything.

unless you are.

in which case, GOOD NEWS! another booth has opened up and it's LILY BARN offering up their ritual rites. they have put together a small sized room-like space that looks very plain on the inside, but maybe very different on the inside (illusions, man, they're great for that).

Styx is chilling against the structure waving at people as they stop by. he's even got a helper ghost sheep to hold your shit if you got things from places. it's fine.]

[with the very faintest undertone of alarm]

Thank you.

[herdtestimony]

Avec plaisir! I can only hope my feelings have truly reached each one!

[whitecollarcrime]

You are nothing if not effective at conveying yourself, Rubato.

[herdtestimony]

Fufu, this wasn't always the case, so I'm pleased to hear it.

[whitecollarcrime]

It wasn't?

[herdtestimony]

When I was much younger, I found it much easier to communicate with animals than with people, you see.

[whitecollarcrime]

What changed that?

[herdtestimony]

Fufu, my parents happened to take me traveling once, and in city we were visiting we watched a play--a musical performance--and I fell in love with it.

[whitecollarcrime]

That...does explain your tendency towards the theatrical, actually, a little.

I am glad to learn more about you.

[herdtestimony]

[😊] Thus is revealed the reasons for my adoration, Monsieur! My heart is aflutter!

[whitecollarcrime]

I am curious, if you would indulge said curiosity.

Is the expression the point? Or something more? You do say you do not know what to do with yourself, after all; that implies the latter, to my ears.

[herdtestimony]

[amused, but with a feign of guilt] I wouldn't say I was strictly truthful in my claim.

[whitecollarcrime]

[a tiny huff; answering amusement, a touch of irony]

I see. I do appreciate the honesty.
