Event Log: Keepsakes

[hadrielmods]

Who: Everyone participating in the event!
What: The event log for the Keepsakes event!
Where: All around the city
When: October 15th-October 19th
Warnings: A bunch of random crap.

Well, Hope and Delight are messing with the door again, but at least this time dragons aren't involved, right? This attempt goes a bit better - sure, no one gets sent home, but if everyone will just look under their seats, they'll find a FREE [INSERT SOMETHING YOU MAYBE DIDN'T WANT AT ALL HERE]! Awesome! So nice! Yup, throughout these few days people will be finding things from home - something they loved, something they used all the time, something they hated, something they totally forgot they even had. All sorts of cool stuff!

Well, they might not actually find it. Their neighbor might, or a complete stranger. And who knows where it could turn up? At the park, half-buried? In the Silent Hill zone, kept safe by a horrifying monster? Or hey, maybe in somebody's underwear drawer. Awkward. Better try to find your stuff, or find the owner of whatever weird crap you found. It could be something important.

"Well, how nice! I'm happy for you, truly."

She's maybe a tiny bit jealous, but honestly, it's pretty hard for her to default to jealousy. It's nice enough when other people have things that make them happy that she can just sort of ride on that emotion, rather than turning it back on herself.

But she does miss her sister. It's been half a month since she's even seen Kori, and she doesn't think they've ever been apart for that long.

She grins at him when he winks. "Oh, well I hope I'm one of the ones who takes the edge off! You certainly have been, though I'm not even sure there's a sharp edge to you anywhere!"

Maybe she's sadder than she lets on. Most people are, when you get down to it. We all got somethin' to hide unless you've got a monkey, so on and so forth. Point is, Sans ain't got a lot in him for pep talkin', but he does have one thing in his arsenal that he can pop out without fail.

"Sharp edge? Me?" He spreads his arms and glances down at himself indicatively. He's kinda got a wide girth goin' on for him. "Have you seen me? Takin' a walk with me is the textbook definition of a round trip."

Bad jokes can lighten even the dourest of moods. Ask anyone.

She has policies about maintaining a sense of positivity. Still, everyone's gotta feel down sometimes, even the most upbeat of people. The trick is to do it when the people counting on you aren't looking.

She laughs brightly at the joke because oh man. He really does look like he'd roll like a ball if you pushed him the right way.

"That's funny! See, this is why you're a bluebird! Regular Bluebird of Happiness, you are!"

The point of course being that bluebirds make other people happy.

[skelebro]

He's got no real conceptualization of what birds are like on principle - birds are singing because that's what birds do, but the specifics of said birds never really weighs down on him with any intensity since it ain't particularly relevant - but if she says he's a bluebird? Heh, fine, he can be a bluebird.

"I'm a real funny guy," he says with a shrug and a wink. Unfortunately, he's got more pages to find and potentially people to reluctantly accost to recover 'em.

He starts headin' for the door. "Can't say I'd be much for flyin', though."
