It's Minglin' Time

[crittersheep]

WHO: You
WHERE: Anywhere
WHEN: Afternoon 62

[ With Bluebell's lovely morning rite, it's shaping up to be quite the peaceful day. The spring thaw continues, bringing young lilywogs with lingering stubby tails to the shores. It's easy to spot them floating among the reeds, though they're still prone to scattering if disturbed.

And across the pasture everyone is hopefully having a peaceful day, right? Or have some of you been getting up to shenanigans instead? ]

[There's an eel walking back from the direction of the beach. Except he's looking a little different right now, given that his hair has grown down to his feet.

He seems distracted as he heads back toward Rose barn. Feel free to catch him anywhere along the way.]

[wants_the_phd]

[She's been arguing with a bird at the fountain, and, conveniently, the fountain is exactly between the beach and the Rose barn.]

...Leviathan?

[Bro your HAIR... HOW LONG WERE YOU GONE!?]

[heavyliesthecrown]

[Somewhere nearer to Rose, he pauses when a familiar color catches his attention. And then the color is just. Everywhere.]

. . . Leviathan...san?

[ It is quite a new look.]

A spell gone wrong? Or are you experimenting...

[readytosqueeze]

[ and guess who's walking in the direction of the beach? this guy.

except the closer he gets to levi, the slower he gets. until he comes to a full stop. ]

[electricflock]

[You might catch Muffin limping from the ocean towards Rose, or you might have followed the trail of…

blood drips…?]

[wants_the_phd]

[She's around Woolietown, which is halfway between the beach and Rose.]

...Rough day?

[leonheartedly]

[Tyr is gonna catch up to him]

Hey - did someone look at your leg?

[the blood drips are concerning!!]

[spinebuddyandme]

[ Among the still damp group making their way back to the barns is one (1) disgruntled baby wearing Lily's collar.

There's also a large metallic blue beetle perched on top of his head ]

[endsjustified]

[he's been sort of absently pinging for both souls and Ananke's location every few hours, so when he picks him up in the vicinity again he does head out to find him and





stares]

[wants_the_phd]

[..........????]

[Whomst the fuq]

[heavyliesthecrown]

[ . . . ]

A baby?

[jerkalope]

Oh? They keep tossing prisoners in here younger and younger! Pretty soon we'll need a daycare.

[papartner]

-- the heck is a kid this little doing here? [ this is 100% not what he wants to see right now, this is bad and -- wait a tic ]

Wait, that's Lily's...

[nobetawedielike]

[ THAT IS A VERY YOUNG CHILD???

how do you even talk to a child, that one girl was at least almost a teenager too but-- ]

E-excuse me...

[leonheartedly]

[another one coming from the ocean, this one is just trudging his way back like the others. His arm's bloody but wrapped up, it's fine]

[wants_the_phd]

[MORE PEOPLE JUST KEEP COMING OUT OF THE OCEAN????]

[endsjustified]

[im here to pick up my baby teammate but

bro...]

[nobetawedielike]

Leon...? Do you need healing?

[ she's popped out to see what was going on, but-- ]

LATER THAT NIGHT

[leonheartedly]

[after getting his arm checked out and wrapped, Tyr has to take a walk to give himself five minutes of allowing himself to not be okay. He's sore and he's exhausted and he's infected, and unlike Spain he has the time to think about it. If anyone were to see him as he walks around, he's got a hand to his chest, rubbing at it like it hurts.

Just five minutes and then he'll go see what he can do about it. Stop by Daisy's first to confirm, and then -

That was the plan, except that isn't what happens. And he really wouldn't be able to tell you what happens after that, but once night falls . . . something is wandering around the edge of the woods where Tyr was last seen]

[catposting]

[ fuck walking there's a kitten with a mermaid tail FLYING to the shore from the direction of the ocean. as he lands on the beach, his legs pop back into existence. ]

... Huh. Weird.

[ starts making his way back to Clover ]

[wants_the_phd]

Y'all really just do keep comin'.

[It's like a parade.]

[finalbows]

[ there's a random bird in the pasture in a RED collar now. ]

Re: late

[featherduster]

[ what is going on at Rose ]

Re: late

[finalefantasy]

[clawed harpy feet stride into his field of vision, out of -- thin air, apparently]

[survivaltricks]

[WHY HELLO THERE! guess who has been lost in the woods for the past mutter mumble days? it's fine, he's emerging from the trees covered in burrs, with sticks and leaves sticking out of his hair]

[despite everything, he looks content]

Hm. . . that could have been way worse.

[beathollow]

... Welcome back. Did you have fun?
