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.

...okay, maybe he should've left that can of worms in peace.

"Oh."

...

.........

"Right on."

What else can one say to learning about his alternate self's sex life?

...

Moving on!

"So, ah..." Clearing his throat now. "What's with the wings?" Fuck. Jeff's face falls, but it's not like she can see his regret, what with the blindfold and all. "Sorry. Was that a dick question? I just mean-- I haven't met a chick with wings before, or-- um, well, I guess I've met a dude with wings, but he's a giant bird--" He casts a glance around, hoping Cerrit isn't nearby to overhear, and adds in a conspiratorial whisper, "--and a fucking cop."

"Oh Christ, bird cops, they don't need helicopters." Erin makes a Face. "But it's a long fuckin' story, so let me give you the short version. Sometimes, fairies kidnap people, and turn them into other kinds of people." She flexes her wings; Erin seems to spot something, because she scowls at them. "Christ my feathers are fucked...but, yeah. I'm human, but it's a 'terms and conditions apply' kind of human."

[cacophonish]

"Oh, yeah." Jeff nods because, honestly? That tracks. He's never met a fairy-- well, not to his knowledge, anyway-- but he's read some books, like folklore and mythology and all that shit. His mom used to make up stories and fairytales when he was little. "Makes sense. Fairies are fucking assholes."

Like he's a fucking expert.

"Hey, maybe the bird cop can help with your feathers! Or--" Jeff looks troubled for a moment. "Wait, is that like... like fucking? For birds?"

Look, he's really trying his best to be helpful to the newcomer.

Erin has fallen over again.

Laughing this time, mind you.

But Bird Down, Bird Down!
