THE BABY PARTY

[afineknight]

WHO: everyone!!
WHERE: The Rec Room
WHEN: Day 33, around lunchtime

[ Since it is a Daffodil rite, the Daffodils (at least, the ones that are not children who have no idea what they're doing and therefore aren't Tart, the best baby shepherd ever) have set up a little party in the rec room for all the kids and their poor beleaguered adults!

They've set up snacks and pulled out a few games as well as some pillows from the library for naptime and books — including picture books — nearby before putting the word out to others to stop by the rec room around lunchtime. And hey, if they have anything they can bring along, all the better! ]

It could be, depending on how horrifying his experience is. Minuet requested it.

[secondbornsun]

. . . Horrifying?

[afineknight]

It's highly likely that if he is encased in gold, he is conscious.

[secondbornsun]

. . .

. . . Damn. That sucks.

[afineknight]

Yes. Yes, it does.

[secondbornsun]

[ huffs a sigh, thoughtful ]

It's gonna be messy, so yanno. The last one melted when he came back t'life.

[afineknight]

I know. But— he is my friend. And I need to be there for him when they bring him back.

[secondbornsun]

Didn't say ya shouldn't be there. Just that ya might wanna pack some clean clothes 'n shit for him.

[afineknight]

[ He snaps his fingers. ]

That is a good idea. I will make sure they are aware of it.

[secondbornsun]

Mmmh. Try t'save some'a the gold, too. Given it's that demon's associated element, might be able t'do something with it.

[afineknight]

Ha. That may be less possible, depending on Lily's mood. I'll ask Minuet, see if we can arrange it, because I have a feeling Charon would think the same thing as you.

[secondbornsun]

I'm not expectin' anything—it'll be good enough if he's back at all.

[afineknight]

Back and not turning into a sheep. Yes.

[secondbornsun]

I'm pretty sure he ain't in danger of that. It likely happened to the other one 'cause he's a denizen of this world, and 'cause he was encased for a while, but we're foreigners, so.

[afineknight]

That is what I am counting on, but it is at the back of my mind.

[secondbornsun]

Ya must be burnin' through your cigs.

[afineknight]

Actually, I slept last night.

[secondbornsun]

O~ho. Proud'a ya.

[afineknight]

I have to ration my cigarettes, after all. Who knows when Red will return?

Though, speaking of, this counts as a rite. I was thinking, ehh, storage equipment for the basement?

[secondbornsun]

Sounds fine. Furniture too—oh. Actually, some clothes for Miss Liquorice, if we're doin' basement things.

[afineknight]

That's good, yes. And if possible — some sort of traveling medicine case that I can use. That way, we can apply Daffodil's power to it and be that much more effective.

[secondbornsun]

? Ain't any ol' bag do?

[afineknight]

Ahh, you would think! But you see, medicine, chemicals, they are all very . . . delicate. So it is good for us to have something a bit more organized than just any old bag. You see, back home, I had this case where I could carry ingredients and smaller equipment and then mix it on the fly. Quite convenient. It would be even moreso with Daffodil magic.

. . . Right, no magic.

Yeah, sounds good.
