Mingle - Emergency Potluck

Pumpkin Hollow Community Bulletin
WELCOME POTLUCK

Greetings, residents! Those more observant sorts among you may have noticed a large influx of very crowded ferries. In order to welcome our new residents en masse, Town Hall is holding a potluck in Town Square. Please bring a dish if you are able and make a new friend!

All of our newest arrivals need only bring themselves. We look forward to welcoming you all into our community, and may your lanterns always be lit.

This event is open to all! In light of our new influx of prospective players following the Great Sail Migration, we've decided to offer a small public event to tide everyone over until the TDM this weekend.

She laughs breathlessly, clinging to him and kissing all over his face.

"I'm making a den," Ylva tells him, "it's not really done yet but it's nice, I promise, I made a chimney, you can stay there whenever you want. I was so scared you wouldn't know me," she adds, desperately.

She has been a little lonely.

"I want to see it!" Oops, he didn't mean to shout that in her ear. He's just so excited!

"I'm sorry I made you worry. I love you so much, Ylva. I want to see your den and your chimney and I want to hold you close and talk all night. I want to run in the woods with you and hunt and cook what we catch. I'm so happy." At this point, he breaks back down into tears and the rest of whatever he might have said is choked off with a joyful sob. If this is all a dream, he hopes he never ever wakes up. Because it feels like everything he could have wished for.

She starts kissing him again, kissing away his tears, and clinging all the harder.

"You can see it whenever you want," she promises, and bursts into tears again herself. The guilt of being here, in this place, is so much less.

Her tears get him going again. He clings on tight, letting all the fear and loneliness he felt behind those bars fall away as if in a cleansing rain.

"If you say that... I might come see it every day."

She buries her face in him, inhaling his scent deeply. "Well, you can't come visit me every day because --"

A beat.

"Valdis," Ylva all but shrieks, "I forgot, Valdis is here too, have you seen her yet?"

He nods while laughing joyfully. "Yes. I saw her. We hugged for a really long time. And I... well, I did kind of ask to move in with her so that's probably another reason why I couldn't visit every single day. Is that....okay?"

"Oh!"

This is not very surprising, ultimately. Ylva pauses to consider this for a moment, then nuzzles her face into his shoulder. "Yeah. I mean, that makes sense, my den is small and you're always welcome but also... you're not a wolf."

And he's going to want a different sort of home. That's okay. She kisses him again, because she thought she'd never see him again, and she is not full up on kisses yet. "So it makes sense you'd want to -- I am trying to make it nice but yes, that... that's probably the best way to do it."

"Yeah," he says letting out a quiet breath as his anxiety calms. "Yeah. I love you, but I'm not a wolf. I need a house. But this is good. It means we can have what's right for us and still be together. And that doesn't mean I won't sleep over somet--mm" she's kissing him now so she'll have to guess for herself what the rest of that was going to be.

Oh god, a house. She could never, not every night. Even on the ship, she'd tended to sleep on the deck when she was alone.

"Back in Hawthorne's Fall, I did something like this," she says. "I lived in the woods outside of town. But I still saw my friends all the time, and I'm going to see you all the time, and you'll be sick of me."

Ylva kisses him again, eyes squeezed tight against tears. "I love you Max I love you I love you."

"I'll never be sick of seeing you." He squeezes his arms around her, kissing back fiercely. "I love, Ylva. I'll always love you."
