⇨ CAMPING GROUNDS

[ringleaders]

Who: Everybody!
When: Day 64
Where: The Camping Grounds
What: While the Ringmaster attempts to purge the carnival of magical tracing spells and deal with the angry fire fae in her belly, everyone else is getting sent on an emergency camping trip with some unusual local fauna.
Warnings: Camping.

CRYPTIC CAMPGROUNDS↴ You're given about three hours to prepare, after the Ringmaster tells you her plans for the coming week. There is a vast selection of camping equipment at your disposal, and the means to take along enough food for the length of the stay. The wilderness of the planet you're left on is nearly idyllic, but some people just don't like the great outdoors. ► CRYPTOZOOLOGY: As it turns out, the carnival won't be alone here. There is a varied ecosystem of cryptids to be found as well, living in relative peace and mostly reacting to the newcomers with curiousity. More details can be found on the plotting post. You are free to NPC the cryptids as much as you need to, as long as you stick to the behaviours described. ► DREAMSHARING: There is a player plot going on which will allow characters to share dreams! These are specifically more dreams than nightmares, and the mushi-adept characters will be here to help. ► CHILLAX: There isn't any plot twist for this setting, so this is mostly an opportunity to decompress from the last plot and get ready for the future. The Ringmaster will show up occasionally to help with needed medical treatments and check on things, but won't stick around for long.

That is quite a vision! Hades really must give the carnival staff points for their creativity. Without varying conceptions of Death and the end, he would simply be a strange amalgamation of human, bird and mammal. Clearly someone somewhere does not think his regular appearance odd enough, however, and that, in itself, is fascinating, isn't it?

Oh he has many questions for his creator should they ever meet. Twirling a flower between his fingers, he cants his head to the side to watch Yuusei's approach.

"A ferris wheel is a ride. What skill does it require but for you to sit still?"

Unless this young man is using the ferris wheel as a sort of...training ground? But for what? The Jackalope makes a soft sound and Hades smiles, offering the creature the flower as a treat. Soon the bloom is devoured and the Jackalope is searching for another. It hops off of the lounging god and seeks out the blooms for itself.

Yuusei takes care to step gingerly around the jackalope as he approaches. He pauses for a moment, thoughts still very much stalling as he's caught continuously off-guard by Death's visage, and shakes his head.

"Wh... Oh, no, I mean... I'm part of engineering," he hastily explains. "There's some extra skill involved when you have to fix it."

He pauses once more before gesturing to Hades' general form.

"So, do you... do this on purpose? Or is it something that just happens?"
