WHO: Viktor + open
WHERE: Gemini
WHEN: 12/29
WHAT: Happy birthday here's your skeleton.
WARNINGS: Possible terminal illness talk, marked in subject lines.

I understand the old adage about questioning gifts, and I realize this is surely a lost cause to wonder about.

But I really do want to know why the city is haunted by a very thoughtful skeleton.

WHO: Varian and you!
WHERE: Gemini - but in person in the Fortress of Meropide
WHEN: 23rd December
WHAT: Varian gets cursed (???)
WARNINGS: None probably.

[ Sometimes you are the Fortress of Meropide's resident engineer and you're running some routine maintenance on the heating systems. It's damn cold down here without them, after all, and you want to make sure they're running perfectly lest they break down when the weather gets really bad. And sometimes you're doing that when one of the pipes bursts - soaking you in the process. No big deal, it's not the first time it's happened. You can just fix the leak, grab a towel and-

Except no. That's not what happens at all. Varian finds himself shifting shape - he's got two monster changes under his belt, he understands what they feel like - but this is different, he can't control it. And he's getting smaller... and smaller.

Anyway, that's how there's now a tiny Adélie penguin waddling around in circles on the main entryway of Meropide. He has the watch that Jun gave him which lets him use some telekenis, so he's managed to get his phone on - and now he's YELLING. Loudy!!! ]


I KNEW HE'D DO THIS! I KNEW IT!! Flins cursed me! Do you think this is FUNNY??? Because it's NOT!!! I've got WORK to do!!!!

[It's kinda funny.]

Can someone come help me, I don't have HANDS anymore!!!

WHO: Husk, (with Shroud and Alastor appearances maybe!) Locked to Husk's CR (if you think you count you probably do)
WHERE: Gemni - but just inside Kami State Park
WHEN: Nebulous mid-late December
WHAT: Husk trying to get a bunch of crazy people to not be crazy
WARNINGS: Alastor

[The phone is logged in on Shroud's username, but it's Husk's face that pops up. He looks... pretty annoyed, but otherwise unharmed. This is gonna go down like a lead balloon, but it has to be done. He doesn't want his people getting themselves into trouble. ]

It's Husk, my phone's fucked so Shroud's letting me use his. I'm fine.

[Questionable statement. Is he going to explain why his phone is broken? No. He rubs a hand over his face, letting out a haggard sigh. ]

Alastor showed up - which is proof the universe thinks it's REAL fuckin' funny, given Thanksgiving and all. Now before any of you dipshits grab your pitchforks and torches, I'm gonna need you to stand the fuck down and listen. He's come here possessed by the Archangel Michael. Shroud checked, it's legit. Unfortunately.

It means he can't hurt anyone unless they hurt him first, which is why I am expressly fucking telling you people not to go after him. Because he can still fuck you up, probably even more so with an Archangel in his bitch head. The contract between me and him is null and void - the Order guessed wrong, he don't own my soul anymore. So you don't have any reason to go starting shit with him.

[ He pinches the bridge of his muzzle, closing his eyes. He's so tired. This was a really bad time to quit drinking. ]

So please just. Fuckin' don't okay? Trust me, I hate it more than any of you, but this is what we're stuck with. And if you don't know who Alastor is, congrats, consider that a fuckin' blessing.

WHO: Husk, Shroud and Alastor
WHERE: At the entrance of Kami State Park
WHEN: The nebulous time Alastor arrives
WHAT: Seeing if somebody is lying about having an archangel in his head
WARNINGS: Alastor.

[Husk is still deeply unhappy about all of this. Sure, he and Shroud had talked about what could be done if Alastor ever showed up, but he never actually thought it would. Or, hell, if it did, he expected it to be a while off. Not less than a month after the damn fact. The universe is pointing and laughing at him, he's sure.

Pointedly not telling his family where he's going, he does as Shroud asks and gets his strongest earplugs, pockets them and flies his way to Kami. He's still not sure how well he'll cope with seeing Alastor in person, but he won't let Shroud handle this alone, regardless of what a powerhouse the kid is. That wouldn't be right. He might need help cleaning up his own messes, but he won't leave someone else handle it entirely.

He lands near the park entrance, taking in a deep breath. It's fine. He just needs to push through all of this. Figure out how to deal with his loved ones and then maybe he can let himself process all of this. Now is not the time to fall apart. He leans against a tree, summoning his cards so he can shuffle them anxiously as he waits. ]

Sorry for the Yankee Candles
