⇨ THE EPILOGUE

[ringleaders]

Who: Everyone!
When: Day 61
Where: The Carnival
What: After all the rescues team return, it will be matter of tending to the wounded and getting the hell out of dodge. The Ringmaster can handle the fleeing part, but someone will need to look after those in the medical tent. Or, maybe, you just want to show up and ask what the hell happened.
Warnings: Some messed up consequences of faerie fuckery.

IN REPAIR↴ As the minutes tick past, all four rescue groups will eventually return. Everyone in the carnival is encouraged to help out, ensuring that the rescues and victims both are taken care of after the fact. You can tag in here as rescuers taking care of business around the carnival, victims recovering, or other workers checking in to see what's going on. This log is for general aftermath threads, made by anyone.

Child, she's been around the medical tent, too. She knows you've been a busy little bee.

"Having set hours can help, but tiredness comes in stages--you don't reach the point you can't focus all at once, do you?"

[soft_focus]

"Umnhhh..." She thinks that over honestly, for a few seconds. She doesn't really think about the inbetweens. She normally just realizes that she's been closing her eyes an awful lot, or that the words are all blurry, or-

"...What do the in-betweens look like then?"

[fourthscribe]

"Mmm..." Well, isn't that a question. "It can be hard to notice if you're used to ignoring them. But if you can notice when you start to get distracted more easily, or if easy things feel a little harder to do, that's a start."

Tanyuu smiles and cants her head to the side. "How about for now, we find something cool to drink and relax for...say, a half hour. Then you can get back to working. Does that seem fair?"

[soft_focus]

Reira looks a lot like she wants to argue that she's Totally not distracted, and that it's not hard at all, but she also has the feeling Tanyuu isn't here for any of that. If Tanyuu says break time, she has to take a break.

Darn!

So Reira sighs, and nods. "...Okay..." A cold drink sounds nice she Supposes.

[fourthscribe]

Tanyuu nods and pulls herself back up, holding out a hand for Reira and leading her back towards the mess tent--at a pace slow enough for her eagle to follow, of course.

"You said your brother has been giving you lessons?"

[soft_focus]

Well, she'll take the hand- and excellent, Eagle does enjoy being able to follow along.

Reira shakes her head however, clarifying. "Umn- I got all the books and things from Childermass, and had to start on my own...niisama just helped split everything into pieces."

...So he's giving her lessons, got it.

[fourthscribe]

Bless this child, but she's adorable. Tanyuu nods with a warm smile, all six eyes crinkling.

"It is hard to tackle everything at once. What sorts of things are you learning right now?"

[soft_focus]

"Mnn...there was a math book for numbers...a science book for how things work in worlds that aren't magic..." She's quite clear about that one, apparently. "...A book for how stories work..." That was an English text. "Umn, there was a book about reading maps too, but it came with a note that said we wouldn't be in the places in the book..." Geography class is hard when you're never in town.

[fourthscribe]

Tanyuu nods along as Reira lists everything off; all very reasonable things to be learning, and useful. She would wonder why there wasn't any history lessons, if it weren't for the problem of 'whose history?'--the multiverse made things like that much more complicated, she had learned.

"My, quite the full class load! Which one is your favorite so far?"

[soft_focus]

And therein lies the exact likely reason that history was avoided. Maybe someone can be convinced to part with multiversal history one day.

She has to think about her favorite class though. "Umnh...I learn a lot of things in Science, and I do a lot of the other things outside of class so...probably that one," she decides, nodding.
