Don't Skip Your Flu Shot

Who: Everyone! It's a mingle post for the first week of Struxta sickness!!
Where: All around the temple
When: During the first week of the sickness
Rating PG?? At most??
What: Curry, blankets and pillow forts, and other assorted sick things

[With the Struxta illness sweeping through the temple like a wildfire, and with so many new arrivals trying to get adjusted to temple living, it's probably no surprise that things around the Astoria's little pocket of space have gotten a little hectic. Feeling under the weather? Looking for something warm to soothe that scratchy throat? Just want to curl up underneath a pile of blankets and not move for like, seven hours or so? Never fear! A Mysterious Helper (TM) has you covered]

A. Curry in the Kitchen

[The kitchen smells extremely nice during lunchtime this week, the only meal of the day that isn't pre-prepared by the misty servants. Like the scent of coffee intermingled with complementary spices. Those who take the initiative to investigate will find something pleasant waiting for them. A few pots of fresh made curry and steamed rice; a few pots of miso soup (a. . . little on the salty side, sorry); and some freshly brewed coffee already poured into individual mugs, along with cream and sugar and whatever additives your heart desires. It's all strewn out across the counter tops with a handwritten note pinned against the wall above the stove:]

Help yourself, and get well soon.

[There isn't any sign of the mysterious chef when you enter the kitchen, and if you arrive near the end of lunch hour, some of the food and coffee miiiiight be a bit cold. But hey! This might be a good chance to mingle with some of your new coworkers who are also seeking out a warm meal to help quell some of their cold symptoms. Just please don't sneeze into the curry pot, thanks. . .]

[Lunch will be laid out in the kitchen every day at lunchtime for the entire first week of the sickness. Help yourselves!]


B. The Temple Hallways

[THERE ARE BLANKETS AND PILLOWS EVERYWHERE]

[. . . no, seriously. For some reason, it's like you can't even walk down a hallway without tripping over a bundled up blanket or a pillow. What's up with that! For the most part, they're normal bedtime accessories, although you may find a bundle of pillows and blankets stacked up into an ENTIRE PILLOW FORT if you're lucky.]

[Pinned to the walls of the hallways (not every hallway, but enough of them that it should be easy to find one of the signs without wandering for too long) are more handwritten signs:]


Whoever can build the tallest pillow fort will receive one (1) high five as a grand prize. Good luck. Blanket provider is not responsible for anyone accidentally falling asleep in the hallways and blocking your route back to your bedroom.

[Hm. Well, that's weird. Anyway! You can build a pillow fort if you want, grab some blankets to take back to your room, or. . . nap in the hallways. Or do whatever! They're all free for the taking. Maybe you could even team up with another Circle member to try and win that extremely coveted high five??]

C. Wildcard

[Don't feel like interacting with any of the above? That's okay! Make your own prompt based on the event stuff over here, or just use this post for. . . whatever you want! It's totally and completely open for mingling for new and old characters alike, so. HAVE FUN ♥]

[ baby steps! yes, right... baby... steps........ uh.

you know, maybe he's done enough experimenting for one day, after all he's going from having no magic to magic and- ]


Why don't you do something with your artes? Just for... you know... contrast.

I've been practicing mine all day.

["All day" in this case means about ten minutes before Ludger walked by. Details!!

But fine, he's not completely without sympathy.]


It's really weird to you, huh? This whole using magic thing.

[ that. gets a helpless shrug from Ludger. he's not quite entirely sure how to describe the complete and utter disbelief he feels at the thought of him having anything that could be magic. ]

I'm Elympian. We don't have mana lobes to cast spirit artes with. It's physically not possible for me.

[ well. ]

Or at least it wasn't.

It wasn't for me either. Or a lot of other people. Maybe you shouldn't think of this as spirit artes at all.

[If that particular brand of magic carries the baggage of bad memories.]

What we're doing here is different. We're basically borrowing mana from Astoria, right? [Assuming... that means what it usually does in video games.]

So your power is something unique. Something only you can do.

yeah, the last time that happened, it... well, it worked out in the end, but the journey sure was bumpy. but the effort is appreciated! ]


... You really like having magic, huh? [ at least someone is having fun with them. ] I guess it can't hurt to expand my arsenal.

Yeah, I guess I do. [Magic felt weird at first--still feels weird, honestly--but it took him a grand total of about five seconds to warm up to the idea.] In the past, I've always had to rely on my partner to help me fight. It's nice to think I might be able to protect him for a change.

[Not that Patamon's actually around. Still, the sentiment applies to his new teammates as much as anyone else.]

You're not alone in thinking it's strange. We've all gotta learn how to work with abilities we're not used to, but it'll be worth it in the end.
