A-questing we will go
Characters: Carol and all of you people
Location: In front of the castle that was once the Station Master's house
Time: Afternoon!
Style: Up to you lovely people!
Status: OPEN; threadjack and spam at will. Carol will be fluttering around reluctantly.
[If any Vatheonite takes the time today to take a look around the castle, they will find a very, very grumpy fairy godmother fluttering around.
Look, it's Carol, in full-costume and fluttering her wings and looking very sour indeed.]
Play along, he says. Grant wishes, he says. Ugh!
[She looks like she might snap that wand, oops. But she's also fluttering next to a crude, poorly done sign that says Quests for heroes!
...Maybe she'll give you a quest if you go talk to her?
---
ooc: let's get some questing going, Vatheonites! No fairy tale is complete without a plot, right? If you have a quest in mind, you're welcome to use this log to play it out and get people in on it; just mark the subject line Title of quest | Location | Open/Closed. If you don't have an idea for a quest or would like to talk to Carol, that's perfectly fine too; just mark those threads with Castle to indicate where your characters are! She'll only be sticking around the castle, so she won't be going on any quests with you guys.]

CASTLE
[SOMETHING ON FIRE IS CRASHING DOWN TOWARDS YOU FROM THE SKY, CAROL, RUN FOR IT.]
[Ignore the very minor fire which starts when the awkwardly winged... something does a very awkward landing into the ground near her, leaving a pile of burning... something. Wow, sure is a lot of burning. In a few seconds, it rapidly cools to a very large pile of ash...]
[And Lea pops his head out, normally brilliant red hair reduced to a dull gray and hanging limp around his shoulders. There are feathers along his jaw and ears, and some very weak looking wings attached to his back. Also his lower body is a bird's. Eh. Vatheon, what can you do.]
Ha, lookin' stylin'!
no subject
She flutters behind the crappy sign at the fireball, but peeks out a second later.
...
....]
Lea? What are you doing?
no subject
[A pause.]
And crashing because I keep bursting into fire. But, uh, it doesn't hurt?
[His wings give a little flutter before folding against his back again. He is a very drab gray right now. Phoenixes, man.]
no subject
This is absolutely insane.
Insane!
no subject
Hey, I wanted to be a knight in shining armor, sweeping damsels off their feet and breaking into castles, but nooooope, you guys made me a bird that explodes.
[Pushing himself to his feet and stepping out of the pile of ashes rather wobbly, he looks down at the sign.]
So! New extra credit assignment?
no subject
As if. Someone is persuasive, okay.
[She kicks at the sign idly.]
Right, right. Want a quest, Lea?
no subject
[Perking up at that, he rubs his chin.]
Well, only if it's the most awesome quest you have. You know what a shining star in the night I am, Carol.
[Exaggeratedly, he waggles his eyebrows.]
no subject
Bribery? What do you take me for?
But fine, fine. Let's see...
Okay, Mister Shining Star. Go deliver something to grandmother's house. It's...over there somewhere.
[She waves vaguely towards the forest.]
no subject
[By which he means what schoolwork ethic. Everything besides that is clearly fair game.]
Deal! What am I delivering?
[Proper directions? What proper directions?]
no subject
I'll have you know that I used to be a very good student.
[She'll just wave her wand and...pop! There is a basket. Better catch it before it hits the ground; she's not grabbing it.]
Try that.
1/2
Carol, you are about to see the very best delivery bird in existence. Catch you on the flipside!
[And then he waddles off, still not quite used to bird legs.]
2/2
Uh, do I come back to you when I'm done, oooor...? Listen, I haven't played a video game in ages, okay?
no subject
How should I know?
You're welcome to come back if you want, but I don't have any prizes. According to the Station Master, that'll happen if you can all break the curse.
...I'm rooting for you guys, by the way. I'm not a huge fan of glittering over everything.
no subject
Heheheh, don't worry, we won't let you down. I mean- [He gestures widely and whoops almost sent the basket flying, that was a close one.] -we've survived worst, haven't we?
no subject
I'm just doing what he told me to do. That's all.
But I'm holding you to that! If you do screw up and I become a fairy godmother forever, I'm holding you personally responsible!
[She's...probably joking. Mostly.]

no subject
Cute. I'm not going to wait here forever, you know.
Chop chop.
