Event Log: The Hope of a Child

[hadrielmods]

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...

[ Yep, there we go. That laughter is what he was bracing himself for, and even though he knew how Ellie was probably going to react, he can't stop himself from protesting in his own defense! ]

I didn't mean to! And he wasn't a baby, he was older than me, I think! It was an accident! He was pulling on my shoe, and I was pulling away, and it just happened!

[She holds her hands up in a placating gesture, shaking her head with a little smirk on her face.]

Oh, sure! No, I totally believe you dude. I accidentally kick teeth off all the time.

[Then she leans in and whispers:]

It's okay. You can tell me the truth.

[hellosirs]

That was the truth!

[ Angus has gone from indignant to outright horrified. He isn't the kind of person who'd intentionally kick someone in the face!

He is, however, extremely easy to mess with once you get him going. Ten points for Ellie!]
