early january, action

[tinflower]

[ You're walking in the woods.

Or, scratch that: You're walking somewhere in Etraya. To somewhere, possibly, like Kwik Trip or one of the cafes, or how about Bangsan Market? Etraya isn't empty of people, but the foot traffic is light, especially with the light snow covering around. There's nothing particularly suspicious around. And even if there was, would Chu Wenshan notice?

There just happens to be a person with his head down, some strange circular things over where his ears would be, dressed in a jacket and jeans.... and he's light-skinned. Definitely not a half-orc, as if that's anything anyone should pay attention for!!

But maybe Chu Wenshan should be paying attention in the world. Will he get lucky, and notice when this one particular person a ways away from him happens to take their hand out, and calls down a bolt of very small lightning to come down and zap him on his head? It's a weak one, again, we promise. Maybe comedy will save Chu Wenshan from his fate of bad hair.

Chu Wenshan: how does Luck smile upon you today? Does she? ]

[nobraincell]

[Chu Wenshan was absolutely on the way to Bangsan Market on some errand or other, and also maybe for snacks. The lack of any real action recently, plus the lack of green-skinned people in his field of view, definitely leaves him with his guard down...and so it is that a guy with a suddenly-sparky hairstyle looks around with a look of vague confusion on his face, having barely felt the zap itself.]

?

[tinflower]

[ Ha!!! He got him, he got him!!!!

Did this strange guy that is definitely not Gorgug do a fist pump to himself? Yes. And now he's fiddling with the device he's got on his wrist to change his features...back to Gorgug Thistlespring!!! SIKE. It was him all along!!

Do you see him, Chu Wenshan. Are you looking his way. He needs to do the devil horns with his hands to show how cool he is. Please look at him. ]

[nobraincell]

[He sees!!! It's hard to miss the guy doing weird motions with his hands when the rest of the scant passersby are walking normally, like normal people. Missed the part where he changed his appearance, though...

Chu Wenshan attempts to copy the devil horn pose in response, because he has no idea what that means.]

How were you hiding? [He asks, loudly, without actually trying to get closer.]

[tinflower]

In plain sight!

[ He is answering back loudly, also without moving, because that's what they're doing here. Talking over a distance. Also, good devil horns, Chu Wenshan. ]

Do you feel okay? You don't feel funny?

[ Since Gorgug did zap him... even if he did so lightly! Also, he's still asking very loudly. And not moving. ]

[nobraincell]

[This is a perfectly normal way to communicate!!]

I felt a little tingly?

[He pauses to feel at his hair, which is still staticky.]

...Still tingly.

[Will either of them ever close this distance-]

hi

if you were dating a guy, what kind of present would you like from them?

[nobraincell]

[Dating...is like courtship, right? He's up with the times...!]

Food
Maybe new clothes
Uncompensated medical aid


Just spending time together might be nice

[tinflower]

you should take your date for everything he's got

[ That is to say, Gorgug supports these answers. ]

how about flowers?

[nobraincell]

Not for me personally but whoever you're courting might appreciate them




Are you courting someone

[tinflower]

yeah

he likes sports and being popular and rich and opinionated

i don't know if he would like flowers

[ ... ]

are you cool back home?

[nobraincell]

[Cool...is he cool? No ody has called him cool before but that's probably also not a word in ye olde vocab...]

I am very well known and often used to have people coming to challenge me
Is that cool

If he is rich maybe you could give him something money can't buy?

a week or so after he died; sending/pending messages while in etraya

[banworthy]

I certainly miss seeing you and hope the days have been treating you well. Take care and may whatever horrors that the train has brought be but a memory.

Or something.

Whatever.

voice, after he returns

[nobraincell]

Thank you for the well wishes. Did you have a reason for sending them?

1/3

[banworthy]

What?

[banworthy]

Oh. Right.

[banworthy]

No reason in particular.

I merely felt it would be a good idea to send them. After all, I feel like I slacked off a little on my training and ended up paying for it while on the train.

[nobraincell]

It's true that training won't be effective if you don't keep it up regularly. Did you want to run with me again? You can also try the horse stance for an hour or two, if you prefer not to move so much.

[Should he ask about the train...does he know about the train...either way, his answer doesn't change.]

1/2

[banworthy]

[ ??????????????????? ]

[banworthy]

The horse stance?

un: gorgug, text (1st week of event)

[tinflower]

hey. are you evil or good

[nobraincell]

[Give him a very long moment to realize what this question is about]








Evil

[tinflower]

[ But it's so clear!! ]

that's cool

what have you been doing about that?

[nobraincell]

Nothing yet?

I think there was talk of theft

[tinflower]

theft can be useful. and bad

are you getting anything cool?

i keep thinking i want to get some stuff
