Who told you so, dilly dilly, Who told you so? βTwas my own heart, dilly dilly, That told me so.
ouch is one of the most intimate, romantic ways to be close to someone else. The Town knows this very well -- the Town wants everyone to be as close as possible.
Perhaps that's why this bonding is so...aggressive.
Because you're in for quite the shock on this otherwise peaceful day when you brush against the next person on your path.
Maybe you're going out of your way to touch people. Maybe you've got a terrible urge to just see what's lurking in someone's heart. Maybe you trip over a conveniently placed rock -- whatever the cause, you're getting an up close and personal look into someone else's heart.
Welcome to Awash's eighteenth 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!
[ It's okay Maribelle.... She deeply appreciates the attempt at being nice about it. ]
Thanks. But mine is just run of the mill normal boring stuff, [ She says, while they're surrounded by probably the most lavish pool party Lottie's mind could conjure. ] compared to everyone else here. Your place included! You even just admitted you had a dragon!
[Several dragons - but that's not helping, is it?]
A-hem. Your world may lack a few things from others, but that does not make it boring. It is your home, after all, the birthplace of you. And there is no one here like you, a sentiment which you must take with pride
[ While it may be an awkward, snobby pep talk, it does reach Lottie in many different ways. Maybe because she is also snobby, very much awkward, and while she isn't so much down to give pep talks herself she is all about receiving it. ]
I mean.. Yeah, that's true. I haven't met anyone from MY world specifically. But being like me, at least here, doesn't make me feel super interesting or cool??
You know? [ She gestures vaguely with her hands. ] Like I can barely do anything half the time!
[ Is it super endearing to hear Maribelle parrot her own terminology in her pep talk? Absolutely. It manages to cheer her up a bit, coupled with her words of encouragement. ]
What, really? You think so? Even after the whole sheep thing..?
[ Not that the referenced Sheep Incidentβ’ is being used as a counterexample to what she's saying about having heart.. Lottie knows she's doesn't have the best personality, so she is definitely soaking all this up No Questions Asked. ]
I kind of got stuck in a door and you had to bail me out.. [ A pause. ] And then before that with the castle I got frozen and had to get bailed out... I think what I mean is like, I'm kind of worried about how useful I might be, here?
Just because you cannot fight in the usual way, does not mean you contribute nothing. You give us a reason to fight.
[She whips out her parasol like a baton, walking around Lottie in a circle.]
Those of us with unique powers, we must have these abilities for a purpose - and that purpose is to help those who lack such powers. You keep us level-headed, you keep us fighting on, you make sure we remember our place! People like you, Lottie, are the foundation that holds us together! Why, we're the ones who serve you!

[She hopes she got that right, with your hipster slang.]
You have something just as important that some here lack... heart.
