WHEN: Day 55 whenever

[Out in the middle of the cluster of barns, there's a table and a small billboard to either sides of a large stump. Azdaja climbs up on the stump like it's a stage and raises her voice loud enough to be heard:]

Attention, dear neighbors!

Rose's rites are gossip and rumors. In light of recent events in which everyone banded together to overcome a great challenge, I would like to invite everyone to speak up about people who are deserving of praise! Has someone helped you lately? Has someone impressed you with feats of bravery, cleverness, or strength? Are you in the mood to bully your friends and flockmates with affection?

Stand up and speak their praises! Or, if you'd rather do it anonymously, you can write it down and stick it to this billboard. And even if you don't want to do either of those things, you are welcome to come get some hot snacks on this cold day.

[On the table are some hot roasted pears glazed with sugar and spices. There are also baskets of various apples and pears for you to take home to replenish food stores.]

Yeah, but you see some sides that a lot of my flock at home doesn't get to see, too.

Re: Praise Goes Here

[rugpull]

We're a pretty small flock compared to yer real one though, yeh?

Re: Praise Goes Here

[electricflock]

That, but I mean my family too. Like parents don’t know I smuggle. Or how sister doesn’t believe I get in fights.

Re: Praise Goes Here

[rugpull]

...WOW. WOW???

Re: Praise Goes Here

[electricflock]

[CHEEPS]

Is not like I’m especially sneaky about it!

Re: Praise Goes Here

[rugpull]

Maybe they just pretend they ain't know.

Re: Praise Goes Here

[electricflock]

Would be good for deniability, but if they actually knew, I would rather they tell me.

Re: Praise Goes Here

[rugpull]

Makes ya uncomfortable?

Re: Praise Goes Here

[electricflock]

Feel like um... I don't think they know, because I think they'd interfere. Are worrying types. Knowing and ignoring it would be weird.

...And annoying if they're just watching me sneak around instead of helping if they're okay with what I'm doing.

Re: Praise Goes Here

[rugpull]

Maybe they can't bring themselves t'help.

Re: Praise Goes Here

[electricflock]

Would settle for a private "you have this handled."

Re: Praise Goes Here

[rugpull]

You have this handled.

Re: Praise Goes Here

[electricflock]

[puffs a small, surprised laugh]

Like that.

[and chirps]

Thanks.

Re: Praise Goes Here

[rugpull]

Gotta be good to my Muffin.

Re: Praise Goes Here

[electricflock]

Is why you get all the sides.

Re: Praise Goes Here

[rugpull]

I'm lucky as fuck!
