[OPEN] IT'S MOCHIGEDDON
Who: Ain, You, and 22 Types Of Creature
What: Mochigeddon :)
When: Early March before the event
Where: :) :) :) :)
Warnings: i hope none because this is the cute log for cute times
[Early in the morning just before the sun rises, everyone's favourite (source needed) chaos goblin walks out into the middle of the Grove with a wicker basket full of small, colourless, white blobs shaped like vague creatures. Setting the basket on the ground, he carefully tilts it until each goes tumbling out, wide eyes taking in the various features of the landscape before tiny legs and wings carry them off toward people and residences.
Still crouched outside, Ain writes in his notebook in a perfect mimicry of someone else's handwriting:]
They are coming :)
[Then, he heads inside his home at the bakery to watch the chaos from his balcony.
---
The Artifact Creatures wander in search of a master. You, apparently, did not get the choice as to which one picked you - it just did, a squishy white and grey blob forcing its way into your window or out of your air vents or up through your drain to reach you. As soon as it spots you, its colour scheme shifts to match yours, big eyes staring up at you.
You are now the proud owner of something not dissimilar to Ain's Dachsologie, which can only mean good things for the future.
---
Later in the day, when he's sure most people have been invaded by small, indestructible beings who have now soul-bonded onto them, Ain writes in the notebook in his own handwriting:]
The creatures have species names!
Dachsologie is the name of the owl-looking hamster but it'll look like mine eventually (MINE ALSO GREW WINGS??? SUDDENLY?? SO APPARENTLY HE'S STILL GROWING :O )
The little round lion is Leon. The Elswords have one big Leon each.
The round deer is Serne! It will look more like a deer when it grows.
The small winged cat is Alisha ^^
The little bird is Revent
The tiny dragon is Vaikal!
The robotic looking round guy is Karte. It will look like a dragon when it grows too :O
This is my gift to everyone! They don't need to eat but they do like food and they're made of raw magic and they're emotionally and soul-ly bonded onto you now, so they'll grow with you as a person. Please be kind to them and give them names and kisses and stuff :O!!
[[ooc: hi this is a present i guess
on the spreadsheet that i'll re-link here if you could please write your names down and change the highlighted number if you take from the extras pool that would be appreciated. if your name is already down from my prior surveying don't touch my numbers!! also the mechanics/rules/whatever are on that first tab of the spreadsheet.
also please stop moving my photos and gifs around every time i open this spreadsheet they've migrated elsewhere please leave them in one spot
have fun make toplevels etc]]

[ He just... sort of nudges him. It's meant somewhat affectionately since he's not sure where Till's at when it comes to physical comfort ]
no subject
I know. I gotta face the music.
[Ha-]
Just sucks.
no subject
It does. It always sucks when you make a mistake. But I think it's worse to let it haunt you. Yknow?
[ He gives Till a little smile ]
But you have me and Mephisto, whatever happens.
no subject
Haha...yeah? Better not let Mephisto hear you say that...
[Of course, Mephisto cares. He's been there for him since they were squabbling in the beginning, no matter how often they seemed to butt heads.]
no subject
Besides, he's much softer than he seems. Buried under the layers of defensiveness is a sweet, scared boy. He won't say as much, though. ]
If he didn't intend to stick with you, he wouldn't live with you. He didn't trust anyone but me for a long time.
no subject
[It's a miracle they became friends at all, but honestly it happened because Till didn't treat Mephisto like a lot of others tend to. He didn't pity or coddle him...if anything, he butted heads with him SEVERELY.]
Honestly, if he hasn't heard about what I did already, I feel like he'd tell me I did the right thing because I was just defending myself.
no subject
[ Faust did too of course. He couldn't blame someone for jumping to conclusions in a situation like that but he was... more mild than Mephisto in that regard, he thinks. More willing to hear people out. Maybe that was a weakness but he can't help but value the lives of others as well. They're all people at the end of the day. ]
It's probably good I showed up late... he's made friends.
no subject
Yeah, well. ...he deserves 'em. He's been through a lot.
no subject
[ They both have, but the guilt for having been unable to help has never ebbed. He doesn't really consider his own suffering much anymore.
He looks down and his Vaikal chirps, uncomfortable, but trying to soothe him ]
He deserves people who can help him feel safe again.
no subject
[...]
I don't really wanna make him talk about it, yaknow?
no subject
[ Implying of course, he knew him while it was happening. ]
... I can tell you at least, it ended with us running away together.
no subject
Till tenses up just a little bit, looking down at his hands resting on his guitar for a moment.]
...were you scared to leave?
no subject
[ He has no idea how close to home he's hitting, he just pets his vaikal quietly. ]
The reason I got good with a bow was for hunting, y'know. To feed us.
no subject
Just like Till couldn't leave Mizi...just like he couldn't leave, even when she disappeared.]
Yeah...yeah. That makes sense. That was a hell of a brave thing to do.
no subject
[ He's leaving out the more damning part of it. The part that would actually be considered brave, or maybe just stupid. ]
But yeah we've... always been close. Was it like that with your friend?
no subject
[How does one even begin to describe Ivan...]
I wouldn't say we were as close as you guys. But we were kindof all we had. He hung around me a lot...it was kindof annoying sometimes. And we'd get into fights, but it was...I dunno. Little kid stuff, you know?
no subject
[ And maybe that was one of the key differences. Faust would never want to hurt Mephisto and Mephisto would never shun Faust the way Till pushed Ivan away. ]
Why was it annoying if you cared about him?
no subject
[Difficult to explain, really. Their relationship was messy.]
I guess it's...hard to get close to people, knowing that we're on borrowed time.
no subject
[ He brings a hand to his mouth, hesitating. If Mephisto hadn't told him there was probably a good reason, right? ]
no subject
It's fine. I know about it. It sounds fuckin' awful.
no subject
[ He's quiet as he says that. ]
I can see your point, but for me... I think making that connection is worth it, even if it doesn't last. Showing you care is that much more important when you're running out of time.
no subject
[Too little too late.]
If he were here he'd give me a noogie for worrying about it anyway.
no subject
Then I suppose you should make it up to him by not making that mistake again.
no subject
Yeah. I won't. At least...I'll be real fuckin' disappointed in myself if I do.
