Event Log: The Hope of a Child

Who: All characters participating in the event
What: The event log for the The Hope of a Child event
Where: All over the city!
When: January 23rd-Feb 1st
Warnings: Youths


By now, the gods have probably done enough weird crap to you while you're asleep for you to be a little suspicious- but it's not like you can just not sleep, especially when there are a few supernatural forces making your eyes droopy and your body feel heavy.

And now, when you fall asleep, you'll wake up somewhere else and you'll likely have quite a different temperament- you'll be younger, maybe a little more naive and innocent, and you won't exactly remember all the wild stuff that's happened to your adult self. Maybe now you'll be a little more trusting and emotional, hm? The gods could definitely use a little boost in power, and what better way to do it than to harness the power of overemotional kiddos!

Or maybe you aren't affected at all and find yourself surrounded by youths. What are you going to do when your best friend doesn't know how to cook for themselves? Or your bitter rival is throwing a temper tantrum because they broke their favorite toy? Nobody asked for this kind of responsibility, but think about what would happen if nobody was around to take care of these babies...

► This log covers January 23rd-Feb 1st.
► Feel free to make your own logs as well!
► Please tag headers of threads with content warnings where they apply
► Please put your character's name and open/closed in the subject line of your starters!

[he's found Margaery in the shops, looking at the canned fruit with a curious look on her face. it has a picture of peaches on it, but how do you get to the peaches? she does not know]

I'm hungry, too. I found this [holds up the can of peaches] but I don't know how to open it. Do you?
puzzlingly: (☥ 12.)

[personal profile] puzzlingly 2018-01-28 05:58 pm (UTC)(link)
What... is that?

He takes a better look at the can, not even the fruit looks familiar to him, but the picture is very pretty and they do look edible. He pokes the can with a fingernail, making it clink.

Hmm. Maybe with a dagger? Do you have one?

[personal profile] roseofthetyrells 2018-01-29 12:33 am (UTC)(link)
It's a metal container for peaches. At least that's what the picture's of. [she closes her left hand protectively over her right forearm where a dagger is sheathed. if he looks carefully, he'll see part of the handle protruding out past the sleeve of her fine dress] ...I have one, but it's to protect me. I already had a very stupid boy threaten to kill me.
puzzlingly: (☥ 124.)

[personal profile] puzzlingly 2018-01-29 12:37 am (UTC)(link)
Hmm...

Why?
roseofthetyrells: (*or am I in too deep?)

[personal profile] roseofthetyrells 2018-01-29 02:39 am (UTC)(link)
[her voice is indignant]

Because I'm noble born and because of that, he wanted to kill me.

[but she smiles and remembers her courtesies, curtseying to him]

My name is Margaery of House Tyrell. What's your name?
puzzlingly: (☥ 105.)

[personal profile] puzzlingly 2018-01-29 02:55 am (UTC)(link)
... That's stupid. We all are the same in the end.

Oh, well. Wait, what is she doing? He's not used to that sort of greeting but, sure, ok.

Atem.

Look, she asked for his name, not his title. Besides, it's pretty obvious to him that everyone should know it.

Lend me your dagger, I will not try to kill you.
roseofthetyrells: (*throw me in the flames)

[personal profile] roseofthetyrells 2018-01-29 03:04 am (UTC)(link)
[she nods] I tried to convince him that not all nobles are cruel, but he didn't want to listen to me.

It's a pleasure to meet you, Atem. Where are you from?

[unfortunately, it's not obvious to her.

she pulls out her dagger with great reluctance. it's not him, it's just that it was a gift from Ephemera]


Here. Be careful with it, please. It's very important to me.
puzzlingly: (☥ 78.)

[personal profile] puzzlingly 2018-01-29 03:14 am (UTC)(link)
I'm from Kemet. It looks a lot like this place. And you?

He holds the dagger with great care.

Okay, I will. I promise.

He at least is not so bad with weapons in general, since he's been taught from an early age how to at the very least defend himself. He also takes the can from her and places it on the ground, kneeling before it. After examining it for a second or two, he places the dagger on the lid, then makes a little hole. The metal is not so hard but the dagger is! That's great. He keeps making little holes around the edge.
roseofthetyrells: (*or am I in-between?)

[personal profile] roseofthetyrells 2018-01-29 03:23 am (UTC)(link)
I've never heard of Kemet before. Is it in Essos? And I'm from the Reach in Westeros. The Reach is one of the seven kingdoms that make up Westeros.

Thank you. I greatly appreciate it.

[she's new to weapons, but Rosie taught her how to wield a dagger. she's pleased to see that not only is he being careful with her dagger, it's actually working to open the container]
puzzlingly: (☥ 112)

[personal profile] puzzlingly 2018-02-05 05:58 am (UTC)(link)
Hmm... What seven kingdoms?

Essos? Westeros? That doesn't sound at all to something he knows...

He muses about that as works carefully on the lid which is almost done! He lifts the lid with the dagger and peeks inside it.


Look--
roseofthetyrells: (*than to be with you)

[personal profile] roseofthetyrells 2018-02-06 01:40 am (UTC)(link)
The North, the Westerlands, the Crownlands, the Stormlands, the Iron Islands, Dorne, and the Reach. And there's the Riverlands, but that was never a country, so they don't count.

[and Kemet is someplace she's never heard of. not even in her lessons about Essos and the Free Cities.

she does and--]
Peaches!
puzzlingly: (☥ 90.)

[personal profile] puzzlingly 2018-02-08 05:36 pm (UTC)(link)
Hmm, never heard of those places... Kemet is... to the west of Tehenu, south of Kush.

Maybe what she's talking about is just in another place because he knows his countries! He was taught about them everyday.

Peaches, huh? They smell so ... sweet, but he's never seen peaches before, so he stares at them with great interest. She seems to know what they are, that should be enough.


Are they good?
roseofthetyrells: (*show me love)

[personal profile] roseofthetyrells 2018-02-08 11:39 pm (UTC)(link)
And I've never heard of any of those places. [she considers] Could we be from different worlds?

[and she was taught about Essos and the Free Cities and none of those places are among them.

they are sweet, especially if they've been packed with syrup. she looks around the stores and finds two forks, offering one of the forks to him]


They're very good. You've never had a peach before?
puzzlingly: (☥ 105.)

[personal profile] puzzlingly 2018-02-08 11:43 pm (UTC)(link)
Worlds? Like... a different plane?

Funny, he gets that concept better, since the Field of Reeds is supposed to be in another plane, of so he was told. He gets the fork, with a smile, but offers the can at ner first.

No, we have... melons, dates, figs and pomegranates, no peaches.
roseofthetyrells: (*or am I in too deep?)

[personal profile] roseofthetyrells 2018-02-09 12:05 am (UTC)(link)
[she sounds uncertain] I. . . suppose so? Either way, we're not from the same place. What's your home like?

[they don't have the concept of different planes in Westeros. they don't really even have the concept of Westeros being on a round planet. she smiles at him, takes her fork, spears a peach slice, and eats it]

Ohhhh. We have to import those from Dorne. It's very hot and dry there.
puzzlingly: (☥ 42.)

[personal profile] puzzlingly 2018-02-15 03:23 am (UTC)(link)
My home is ...kind of like this, very hot, there is the desert, but it's golden, not so white. There is a long, beautiful river that crosses along the land. What's yours like?

Now it's his turn to try the peaches. He does and his face brightens, he's never had something so sweet!
roseofthetyrells: (*you've got your hand on the button)

[personal profile] roseofthetyrells 2018-02-15 03:30 am (UTC)(link)
Golden would be prettier than white. Do you go boating on your river?

Mine is green everywhere. Everywhere. We grow the wheat, barley, corn, apples, peaches, and grapes for all of Westeros. They say that my home is called The Reach because we give your hands something to reach for at the dinner table. Highgarden, my family's keep, is especially beautiful. Roses so yellow they look as though they were made of gold, hedge mazes, and orchards. It's beautiful.
puzzlingly: (☥ 118.)

[personal profile] puzzlingly 2018-02-15 05:28 am (UTC)(link)
He gives her a little nod.

Yeah, it's fun, you get to see a lot of animals, though, we have to be careful of crocodiles and hippos.

He listens to her words, his eyes going wide at them. It sounds pretty.

What are roses?
roseofthetyrells: (*so show me love)

[personal profile] roseofthetyrells 2018-02-15 10:43 pm (UTC)(link)
What are crocodiles and hippos? The word "crocodiles" sounds angry.

[The Reach is the most beautiful part of Westeros]

They're a flower that we use for our House sigil. [she pulls a fine gold chain out and shows him the charm hanging off of it] Roses look sort of like this. They have velvety petals and they smell good, but you have to be careful of the thorns.

[personal profile] puzzlingly 2018-02-15 10:51 pm (UTC)(link)
Crocodiles are these huge repites! Their jaws are this big 「He, of course, extends arms all the way.」 and they could eat a lion in single bite. 「Eh... sort of?」 And hippos? It's short for hippopotamus. They are also very big, but it's like a water cow. They won't bother you unless you enter their territory. Except crocs, they are always hungry.

Oh, a flower!

It's pretty. We don't have those back home. 「Yet.」 But we have water lilies. They are pretty too.
roseofthetyrells: (*you've got your hand on the button)

[personal profile] roseofthetyrells 2018-02-15 11:00 pm (UTC)(link)
[her eyes widen at the description of crocodiles] That sounds dangerous! Is there any way to make them behave? [and she considers] A water cow. We have land cows, but nothing like a water cow.

[yes and one that House Tyrell has taken great pains to cultivate.

she thinks a moment]
I don't think this place would have them. It's too dry. Roses need to be watered. And we have water lilies back home, too. What color is your favorite?
puzzlingly: (☥ 12.)

[personal profile] puzzlingly 2018-02-15 11:15 pm (UTC)(link)
Yep, they are really dangerous. But, not really, better leave them alone.

He thinks about it.

Some are purple, and sometimes they can be so dark they look like the sky at night, some are rosey, oh, are roses called like that because of the color? Hmm, some are also also white, but all of them have different shapes... I like them all. And you?
roseofthetyrells: (*or am I in-between?)

[personal profile] roseofthetyrells 2018-02-16 12:22 am (UTC)(link)
Yes, it sounds like they're best avoided. Like krakens on the sea.

Probably they are. Roses are often pink or red, but House Tyrell favors the yellow roses due to our sigil. And I think I like the white ones best. It's not a House color, but it goes well with my complexion.
puzzlingly: (☥ 116.)

[personal profile] puzzlingly 2018-02-16 06:53 pm (UTC)(link)
What are those? Do you live close to the sea?

Sounds cool somehow.

With her... complexion? That makes him stare at her for a moment... Then he shrugs.
roseofthetyrells: (*she's got a mouse to feed)

[personal profile] roseofthetyrells 2018-02-16 11:14 pm (UTC)(link)
Krakens are squid. Gigantic squid which can drag an entire ship into the sea. My mother's family, House Hightower, lives by the sea and so does my Grandmother's family, House Redwyne They both have fleets of ships for trade and travel. And House Greyjoy uses the kraken as its sigil.

[part of the lessons in charm involved what did and what didn't look good on her. white goes well with her pale skin and blue eyes]
