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!

I'm not lying! I just brushed against it by accident.

[He looks up in the direction of Nathan up on his soap box, both out of incredulity and trying to get the crowd's eyes back on him. He takes a cautious step towards her, hands still up.]

Look, let's just--let's just enjoy the show, okay?

[Please??]

[Elena considers the suggestion for a moment.

Then she stomps on his foot.]

[This is the worst result he has ever gotten from a pickpocket attempt. It almost makes the stealing of the Lois Lane wallet not worth it.

Almost.

Sam curses under his breath as he doubles over a little, limping out of her way and in a small circle as if to walk it off.]


O-okay, you know what? I'm sorry, all right? I'm sorry I accidentally grabbed your butt.

While you tried to steal from me.

[She flips her hair over her shoulder. Oh yeah. She has his number.]
seekingmyfortune: (Young Sam 4)

[personal profile] seekingmyfortune 2018-02-01 03:16 am (UTC)(link)
Wha--I--

[THIS IS NOT HOW HIS PICKPOCKETS USUALLY GO.

Sam considers if it's even worth trying to feign innocence. With some people still watching their argument, he decides it's a risk he'll have to take. Otherwise they might lose everything. He does step closer to her though, lowering his voice to a whisper.]


Hey, I did not try to steal from you. [I succeeded is his immediate unsaid thought.] Now, if you excuse me, I've got a magic show to help out with.

[When in trouble, try to make a quick, inconspicuous getaway.]

[This is so not how it's supposed to go. The bad guy's supposed to admit to his bad deeds when he's caught!]

No way, buster! [She grabs his sleeve and holds on with a tight grip.] If you didn't try to steal from me, does that mean you were trying to grab my butt?

I should call the police on you. [Hmmph!]

[WOW THIS GIRL IS RELENTLESS. Sam tries to release his arm in vain]

Jesus, what is with you! I wasn't trying to grab your--how do you even know it was me anyway? There are a bunch of other guys around here that it could have been!

[Tactic 2: when desperate, try and put the blame on someone else]

[JUST LIKE LOIS LANE.]

Do you think I'm stupid? I can punch you again!

[She holds up a fist, not making a move to use it—yet.]
seekingmyfortune: (Young Sam 6)

[personal profile] seekingmyfortune 2018-02-01 03:37 am (UTC)(link)
[IS LOIS LANE HER MOTHER OR SOMETHING]

Woah, woah--okay! [He puts his hands up again and looks at her like he's trying to tame some wild animal.] Okay.

[He looks around to make sure no one is in earshot before continuing in a quiet voice.]

I'll give you your wallet back, but you gotta promise you won't make a big scene about it.

[IF ONLY.

Elena's eyes go wide and she slaps her pocket with her free hand as she realizes the implication of his words. Then they go narrow.

Narrow is worse. She leans in closer.]


And all the other money you've stolen.

[Sam scoffs at her, looks like he can't believe what he's hearing. Which, he can't. Seriously??]

Yeah, that's--that's not gonna happen. I've got a baby brother to feed, and everyone else here? Pretty sure they're not gonna miss a few dollars. So I'll just give you yours and we'll call it a day.

[personal profile] storyseeker 2018-02-01 04:21 am (UTC)(link)
[Elena scoffs right back. Doesn't he realize she's serious?]

If you're such a good thief, you'll be able to make it back in no time. Besides, if I yell for the cops and you get arrested, you won't be able to feed him at all. Especially if they think he's your accomplice.

[W O W. DOES THIS GIRL HAVE NO SYMPATHY]

What are you, a cop in training or something?

[He shakes his head with his hands on his hips, disbelieving smirk on his face as he looks around. He has yet to see any sort of authority figure here but he can't risk it in a new place like this.]

I'll give back a third.
storyseeker: (Default)

[personal profile] storyseeker 2018-02-01 04:35 am (UTC)(link)
No, just a girl who doesn't put up with bullshit!

[She plants her hands on her hips.]

Two-thirds.
seekingmyfortune: (Young Sam 1)

[personal profile] seekingmyfortune 2018-02-01 04:58 am (UTC)(link)
[Yeah, that's becoming increasingly clear.]

Two-thir--[Whoops, better not get too loud.] Little less than half.

Half.

[Her eyes narrow and laser-focus on him. It's like she doesn't even need to blink.]

Half or no deal. And I yell.
seekingmyfortune: (Young Sam 11)

[personal profile] seekingmyfortune 2018-02-19 01:23 am (UTC)(link)
Half?

[Comes the incredulous harsh whisper.]

Half? That's--

[Thievery. Sam sighs a deep heavy sigh before holding out his hand to confirm the deal.]

Half. And you don't say anything.
storyseeker: (Default)

[personal profile] storyseeker 2018-02-20 05:08 am (UTC)(link)
[She shakes his hand—hard, so he won't think she's anything less than completely tough—and then keeps her hand held out so he can put money in it.]

There won't be anything to say something about, right?
