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...

[Lup loves when her Barry goes bright red like that, flustered and so very embarrassed, but it's just that much cuter when he's bite-sized. Those chubby cheeks of his are just making her melt.]

Either way, no kids for us. Not yet. [That's another topic this little guy does not need to dive too deep into. Their future is complicated enough as it is, he doesn't need to worry about nonexistent children on top of it!]

How many friends do we have here? Like, an easy hundo, for sure. But friends who live with us? About four. Three smelly adults an' one kid just a little older than you. None of 'em are even close to as cool as we are, but they're pretty rad. Weird and loud and kinda useless without us, but good friends. But c'mon, chickadee, let's get you the big, ol' house tour! You gotta meet Peanut!

A hundred friends??

[That doesn't sound real! Barry's never had that many friends before!! He doesn't even think he's met a hundred people ever in his life!

Man, who would've thought Barry turned cool and popular when he grew up? Certainly not him.]

Y-Yeah! I'm real excited to meet'em! W-Well, th'four people we live with. A hundo sounds like a lot. [The excitement and nervous butterflies isn't enough to stop him blushing from the pretty lady calling him "chickadee". That's... so cute...] Who--! Who's Peanut?!

[restinglichface]

[The most cool and popular. Follow all of your dreams, Barold. Look how awesome your future looks.]

You'll get special introductions to all of 'em. I promise. [She'll have to keep an eye on the boys, just to make sure they don't get any funny ideas. Lup's seen the way they treat Angus, alright. She's not going to let it happen to her future husband, especially not while he's in such a sensitive state, even moreso than usual. If Barry starts crying, someone is going to die.]

Peanut's our family dog. She's real sweet, super friendly an' energetic. You'll get along great with her. She loves chasin' kids!
