WEEK TWO

WEEK TWO
23 Villagers


Three people have fallen and a tower has risen. Along with it, some of the restraints on your mind have dispersed and a memory has returned to you - is it precious, is it painful? Is it cherished, is it loathed?

Mercilessly, dawn breaks on another morning. The rooster still calls, and the crops still need tending to. Rise and shine, Puffin Town! It seems like the residents are not the only thing that has chosen to rise, as a few more establishments have opened up for exploration. The sound of moo-ing near the farms may feel especially inviting here - how about making some new additions to your farms, to drown out your loneliness?

There is no festival just yet but if you question the ducks on it, some excited quacking will herald fun things to come later in the week. Some of the ducks will also wave the gift notes from last week; regardless of murder, being kind to your neighbors is still encouraged! Can't let our beautiful town sink into gloom and doom, right?

(( OOC: Murder proposals are due by Tuesday at 4 PM EST / 1 PM PST, for the current week's murder, but feel free to submit for later weeks if you like!

We have also added a page to report your Astera planting - this does not need to have been threaded, we're just taking stock on an OOC level.

Further, the Gift Mechanic has been updated. All turned in threads will now yield a character specific item as a reward! We're only dipping into the random gacha once all personalized rewards have been given out.))

[ This duck sure is giving him puppy dog eyes in response. ]

Quuuack...? Quack quack...

[ It's definitely protecting it closely, but Vayne could probably notice some form of paper sticking out through its little drawstrings. ]

[ hm. paper in the sack, huh...

looks through the house for the written word. ... finds a bunch of letters?

looks at the duck. ]


Um... If I put you down, do you promise to not run away or make a mess of things.

[ It looks reluctant, but after a pause, it nods. ]

Quack.

[ Not running! But it looks at Vayne questioningly. What does he wanna do with a duck? ]

[personal profile] liberazoth 2024-03-14 07:31 am (UTC)(link)
Um...

[ he maybe feels a little ridiculous doing this right now? ]

Is there a way you can show me what you're trying to do or find? I've got a couple of the plant care guides around here if any of the words you'd find in those would help. Though if we're doing that I really hope you can read. Also, um...

What do you have in that bag, anyway...?

Quuuaaack....

[ It looks incredibly unsure at the questions, but it does reach a little into its sack to pick out one paper for him to see.





It's absolute duckscratch. None of the words on the paper can be made out. ]

[personal profile] liberazoth 2024-03-14 07:50 pm (UTC)(link)
[ he's not sure what he expected. ]

That's, um, very nice.

Thank you for showing it to me...?

[personal profile] duckinghell 2024-03-15 05:24 am (UTC)(link)
[ It puffs its chest out. Looks like it's proud of that paper. ]

Quack! Quackquack?

[ The duck once again looks at Vayne with questioning eyes. ]

[personal profile] liberazoth 2024-03-17 05:24 am (UTC)(link)
[ he has no idea what kind of reaction the duck is expecting from him so he just

nods????? yup? yes? good? mmhmm that's sure some choice duckscratch right there. ]

[ The duck frowns and sits down, kicking its little feeties while it slowly stares between Vayne and the door.

Then it takes out yet another item from its bag—a diamond.

It holds out to him with a simple quack. ]
liberazoth: (crystalized ✴)

[personal profile] liberazoth 2024-03-17 05:35 am (UTC)(link)
[ ?????

well, he'll hold out a hand to accept it, but, ]


Are you sure...?

[ where are the ducks getting these things from ]
duckinghell: (odd duck)

[personal profile] duckinghell 2024-03-17 05:38 am (UTC)(link)
Quackquackquack. Quack!

[ It nods. Who knows what it's for, but it certainly seems to want Vayne to have it! Despite his inability to understand perfectly reasonable duck. ]
liberazoth: (homeroom ✴)

[personal profile] liberazoth 2024-03-19 07:23 am (UTC)(link)
Well, then, I guess ...

[ he has so many questions. but also he's a polite boy who's not going to refuse a gift??? or be ungrateful. ]

Thank you very much, duck. ... Huh, maybe we should figure out what to you guys...

Quack, quack! ♪

[ And with that done, it stands up, adjusting the way it's carrying its sack. Looks like it wants to go on a journey. ]
