Event Twenty-One

[awashmods]

Sometimes I feel happy, Sometimes I feel sad. Sometimes I feel curious, Sometimes I feel mad. Sometimes I feel silly, Sometimes I feel surprised. How many feelings, Do I have inside?

t's another regular, normal day in the Town. There's absolutely nothing to show that anything could possibly be wrong; the birds are chirping, the sky is bright, and everything is absolutely, entirely wrong. This time, though? The problem is internal. Slowly, bit by bit, people are going to stop feeling entirely like themselves -- or maybe even stop feeling at all. And suddenly that nice, bright day doesn't seem quite so nice and not quite so bright any longer after all. Welcome to Awash's Twenty-First event log, everyone! Further information on this event can be found here at the OOC post. You are welcome to make your own logs and posts for this event! If there are any questions, please ask them here. Thank you!

[ He puffs up a bit when Maiden Magjilou calls him a "dashing knight." But when Maiden Maya speaks... ]

A healer and a thief! Maiden Maya, I'm astounded. Ha ha ha!

[ Meanwhile, his puppet isn't idle. He's been at Maya's house before, so he at least knows what to expect: a mess. The puppet, bends down and starts picking things up off the floor. Clothes, dishes, books are hung up or taken to the kitchen or closed and put away. ]

[ Whoa. That's a different kind of magic than Magilou was expecting. A malak, or a spirit...? No, it's more intangible than that, and she didn't sense anything beforehand. How curious. Her eyebrows are raised, lips slightly parted, and it's more emotion than she's shown most of the day.

The pain was mostly a throbbing ache, even if it was fairly sharp - yet the moment Maya makes the connection with her head, it's completely gone. She rubs at where the bump was, but even that doesn't produce any pain. ]

You weren't kidding about that healing.

[ It comes out more muted than it would otherwise, but there's gratitude in her tone. ]

That's the healing part - but for the thief part, if you ever need someone to steal a couch for you, that's right up my alley. Seems like Cucumby over here would love to help pick anything up, too. Isn't that right, big guy? [ There's a small, coy grin on her face as she inclines her head to the puppet. ]

[ Maya turns her head to look at the puppet, and-- well. Yeah, she can't deny the place is a mess, and she has the grace to look a little embarrassed. Look, she has other things to do than sit at home and tidy up!! ]

I wouldn't be stealing from occupied houses, and look, this one's still just fine! So problem solved!

[ Well, now at least she seems a little more like herself, though she's still looking slightly concerned. ]

Did that help? Does anything still hurt?

[espritdecorpse]

Please!

[ He draws himself up, looking affronted, while the puppet gets out a broom. ]

Good Prince Cucumber would never, ever, ever engage in breaking and entering unless his services were properly hired, in which case no questions asked, and your satisfaction's guaranteed.

I actually think I'm right as rain now.

[ Magilou taps at her head, testing where the brick hit her. It's not even sore now, as though nothing had ever happened at all. She might not be as dramatic as usual, but it seems like everything else is as it should be. With a grateful, though somewhat mischievous smile, she flits her attention between all three of the moving people in the room (Cucumber counts). ]

Okay, okay, Cucumber might be out on his own, but I'm always up for some heists. You healed me, so if you ever need someone for your capers, I'm just the witch for the job. Cucumber's better at the cleaning than me, though.

[ She'd never imply that she's in someone's debt normally. But when the debt involves having some fun, maybe it's fine?? ]

[scooptimistic]

... Thanks. I'm not really in the habit of stealing, but if I need to go on some kind of crazy adventure, I'll look you up.

[ Maya does indeed go on crazy adventures from time to time. ]
