call me out v. 14.0

[misheard]

Call out one of the characters from my muselist with a starter, a prompt, a general 'hey can we do something with these characters' comment, a smoke signal, etc., and I'll get back to you with some kind of RP thread!

Old CR, new CR, assumed CR, canonmates, AU, crossover, whatever, it's all good.

Do you make flower crowns often
You're good at it

[anappleaday]

It's an old hobby. I make garlands sometimes as well, but it's easier to get carried away with those.

[gemuinemanagement]

It's a nice hobby
What are your favorite flowers

[anappleaday]

Larkspurs, perhaps unsurprisingly.

[ tilting her head toward a clump of the same blue flowers his crown is made out of. there are a lot of them growing around her, actually. ]

...I like lilies, too. And... there's a plant called "snake gourd" that has flowers that look almost like lace.

[gemuinemanagement]

That sounds nice
I know it's cliche, but I like roses

[anappleaday]

[ reaching up to adjust the skull the skull's muzzle a bit, almost a pat ]

They're something of a calling card, at this point...

Clichés usually become clichés for a reason; there's nothing wrong with that. ...I don't know how I feel about the cultivated ones—they weren't common where I'm from—but the wild ones are cute.

[gemuinemanagement]

Where are you from?

[anappleaday]

A forest. Rather— mostly forest, at least. What isn't is still very overgrown; there's little left that hasn't gone wild.

[gemuinemanagement]

So being here feels like home
It's a little similar for me
I'm up in the mountains, but there's a forest very near my house

[anappleaday]

...Not very much like home, outside of the woods. It's too lively here.

[ which is objectively good, honestly, but hasn't been easy on her nerves. ...or the homesickness. ]

Perhaps that's the same for you? If you were up in the mountains...

[gemuinemanagement]

[Wiggly hand.]

It's less haunted here
Which is nice

[anappleaday]

I don't know about that; there are at least a few dead people. ...That's probably not what you meant, however.

[gemuinemanagement]

None of the dead people are ghosts who kill people who enter the forest
As far as I know

[anappleaday]

[ ...when your morbid sense of humor finally backfires on you. she doesn't wince, but she does go very somber (as Samael offers up the emotional equivalent of a very dry F in their chat and some mild exasperation on Suga's behalf.) ]

...I apologize. I didn't intend to make light of something like that.

[gemuinemanagement]

It's alright
You didn't know

[He's used to much more mean-spirited jokes than that.]

[anappleaday]

[ makes a quiet noise in the back of her throat— not quite outright objecting, but still reluctant to let herself off the hook. ]

...I wanted to establish myself, I suppose. Still.

Nobody's been able to put them to rest?

[gemuinemanagement]

[Suga considers this for a moment.]

The only people who believe the spirit exists in the village are me and a preteen
Most people who haven't seen her dismiss her as a legend
I make protective charms and keep people out of the forest
But actually exorcising her is beyond me

[anappleaday]

[ ...quietly starting to pluck some of the smaller white flowers scattered around— chamomile ]

I'm sorry. That can't be easy to live with.

[gemuinemanagement]

It's not
But being here has been a break
So there's that at least

[It's something.]

[anappleaday]

A vacation, hmm... That isn't a bad way to think of it.

[gemuinemanagement]

People here have been kind, mostly
It's nice

[Lilith included.]

[anappleaday]

...Mm. I haven't gotten too many second looks, either, which is a nice change of pace.

[ translation: thanks for coming up and talking with her without batting too much of an eye ]

[gemuinemanagement]

You do have a very interesting fashion sense

[Skull and all.]

[anappleaday]

[ chuckles quietly ]

If you mean the skull, she isn't exactly a fashion item.

[gemuinemanagement]

Oh
I'm sorry if that was offensive

[She said 'she', so it must be someone really important, right?]
