You know, I'm glad that wherever this place is, the Powers That Be apparently recognize that access to the internet is right there in the bottom tier of Maslow's hierarchy of needs, right along with food, water, sleep, and shelter. Apparently there's only this one forum, though? But I guess it's better than nothing.

Anyway, can someone fill me in on this "quests" thing? I know it seems pretty straightforward, "do this quest and win a prize", but what's the deal with the guy who lives in the azure district? Maybe I'm just not following how that fits in?

Apparently I'm a red, though, and I'd kind of like to pull my weight if I'm going to be stuck here for the foreseeable future, so I guess if somebody's in a questy mood, feel free to hit me up. I guess it'd depend on what the quest is, but maybe I can help. Or at least I can increase the overall hotness of our group by 1000% by being a part of it. (That's a joke.)

Maybe this is jinxing it (knock on wood), but this place seems...sort of nice. Like, yeah, we're all stranded here or whatever, but it's got a really "Gilligan's Island" kind of feeling to it? Like, okay, we're technically stuck here on a three-hour tour gone wrong but The Professor is figuring out how to make a washing machine out of a bicycle and some scuba flippers and Mr. Howell's setting up a nine-hole golf course for some reason and Ginger's somehow contributing by sunbathing and being glamorous but it kind of works out, I guess, for morale or whatever.

There was a point to that but it's gone now.

Anyway. Quests. I think I'd like to get in on that, so I'm open to takers.

catching geese w two of the same color nets like shampoo and soap
were both red
waggles eyebrows
except i didnt actually do that but like if youre ever interested i am trying to spam the fuck out of that
mostly
because i want to be in a long term relationship with soap
who is playing really fucking hard to get here

[whichcraft]

Holy shit you had me at "soap".

Geese are monsters but I'll take on an entire mafia of geese for a bar of soap in a hot second.

[parodeity]

yeah also
if you have a way to heard them at me i am a walking bag of holding
more or less

[whichcraft]

Ummmmmm. I could make loud noises? Like not just banging pots together, I mean, but like...ventriloquism-style. I can throw noises. I could try to spook them in your direction, probably?

[parodeity]

[ ugh ventriloquy...hope she doesn't like puppets that would tank her cool scores?? ]

yeah should work
when do you wanna do this thing

[whichcraft]

[Hell no, fuck puppets. Sound-throwing is for impromptu lightswitch raves and magical surround sound use only.]

Gosh, man, I don't know, I mean my schedule is so full up what with all the nothing I've been doing around here lately, it's gonna be hard to pencil you in.

[parodeity]

well like do you want today or tomorrow

[whichcraft]

The procrastinator in me says tomorrow, but also: fuck procrastinator me. No time like the present.

[parodeity]

meet you at the well in five then

[whichcraft]

I feel like that comment should've ended with "...if you want an asskicking".

Which I don't, by the way.

Be there in five.

[parodeity]

[ and to SAVE TIME we can just keep it in the same thread, and dave will be at the well in five.

he's...wearing the same ~laundry fresh~ red pjs as ever. magic is awesome? ]

Hey, Sabrina, over here.

[whichcraft]

[The name gets a laugh out of her as she approaches, and let's be real, it's not like she's that much better off when she's got her cloak on today. Couple of capey hooded assholes all up on this well, today.]

What's up, Salem. So we're going goosing, yeah?

[parodeity]

Absofuckinglutely we are. Woods are thataway and we should be fine just goosing - spider chicks are further in, and we'll just, like. Avoid them and their sexy ways. I'm joking, I was told they were supposed to seduce travelers? But like, all they did was try to murder me, so eh.

[ SEXY MURDER - no.

he is already walking. ]

[whichcraft]

Okay, one? Fuck spiders, and two, if we see one, I'm burning the whole forest down.

[She is also walking, apparently full of contempt for spiders.]

Just saying.

[parodeity]

Honestly that's fair and I probably wouldn't even stop you. And not just because I usually just follow the directions of bossy witches.

[ that's rose. he is literally comparing summer to rose, because everyone alex plays is secretly rose.

alternately, dave strider really fucking misses rose lalonde. ]

[whichcraft]

Oh, do you really? Well, you're doomed now. I'm bossy as hell.

[Not to mention she looks delighted at the characterization of being a "bossy witch". It's the little things in life you treasure.]

About how far in do we have to go, you think, before we find the spiderthing?

[parodeity]

Deeper in than the geese. Which should be like...just around the bend figuratively. They do not like me much.

[ again he needs to stop kidnapping them? ]

[whichcraft]

Do geese like anybody, really? I mean, come on. Really.

[Fuck geese. But she looks vaguely relieved that the likelihood of running into Spider Territory is slim, here.]

That's half the reason why I'm cool with doing this. Like, the geese probably have it coming. They're geese. They know what they did.

[Speaking of which, there goes one, now.]

[parodeity]

I think they maybe like one another, but you're right. Even that can't be certain -

[ he cuts off to like. flashstep towards the goose who gives a Distressed Hink because he knows what comes next - SYLLADEX JAIL.

and yeah that is - ]

One down, eleven to go. [ that goose sure did disappear into hammerspace ]

[whichcraft]

Oh, shit.

[But what's in her expression isn't astonishment or bewilderment — just surprise and intrigue.]

Did you just...you just tossed it somewhere else, right?

[parodeity]

Sylladex inventory system. It's just in a card - won't hurt it at all.

[ if harming geese was a concern here??? ]

As long as I don't launch it at something accidentally, but I ain't thirteen.

[whichcraft]

...In a card. So you're saying it's not just running around free inside wherever you...put it?

[What a remarkably specific question.]

Well, shit, this is going to be a lot easier than I thought.

[parodeity]

Nah, it's just chillin' in the card. [ which probably isn't super fun for the goose and may contribute to the geese hating dave??? ]

So if we herd 'em to me I can handle them.

[whichcraft]

Hmm. And that noise it made, it was kind of a...

[She thinks a minute, tilting her head like she's trying to recreate it in her mind, and then waves her hand in a sweeping motion — and an identical Distress Hink fills the air.]

Something like that?

[parodeity]

[ oh my god i typoed phone why... ]

That is pretty much exactly - oh, lord.

[ and here comes the mob of geese to Rescue the supposedly distressed goose.

dave flashsteps into the mob and gets to work ]
