December FamMeet

Who: The Grove
What: Town Hall
When: Mid-Late December
Where: Inn Lobby
Warnings: Child death mentions, torture, body horror all probably will be brought up.

[ In the morning, Irene will trek around the Grove to knock on doors and let everyone know she's setting up a information sharing meeting in the Inn's lobby. She figures there would be best, considering the new fireplace (thread pending on my behalf) set up and the fact it's about as safe as they're going to get.

Irene also lets everyone know that any fights and any blatant drama starters will be met with punishment. She doesn't elaborate on this further. Zahliya is invited. Irene tells Moder if she wants to sit by the door to listen, she can. She does not invite the merchant siblings, however - though she'll make no objections if someone else does.

She seems to be writing things down in their shared journals this meeting so people can reference this later.

[Hold the fuck up, actually.]

How do you know that? And if it's true -- that means a couple of kids are holed up and suffering to keep some monsters out, and everyone's just... okay with that? I know for a fact at least some of us can fight. [He isn't trying to shit talk anyone, but listen, he can definitely speak for Vash and Wolfwood -- at least he seems to think so, despite his lack of experience here.]

Oh, 'cause Mister Heimr told me. I kinda bother him with questions a lot.

A lot of us can fight, it's true, but the monsters are going to be the least of our concern if the barrier goes down. If anything, we should probably figure out a way to keep that up without having the kids use it...

I was actually hoping someone could help me try to throw one of the notebooks Miss Ydalir made for us over the fence in hopes they might find it. Maybe if we had some way to talk to them, then we could plan a little better.
livlaughlove: begging you (220)

[... This is why he's the attack dog and not the mastermind.]

Notebooks? I got one, I think. We can use mine, I don't need it.

Ehehe, I appreciate the offer. I already talked to Miss Ydalir about the idea though, and she gave me an extra one to try. I just need help with the actual... throwing part. I'm good with harpoons and stuff like that but I can't exactly throw a book like a harpoon... so my aim's real bad.

livlaughlove: in a second, if i needed to (236)

We can tie it shut or attach it to something heavy. I'm sure I could get it to the door.

Tying it shut I can do. But... umm, don't we want to try to get it inside the house? That way they'll know it's there and stuff... I think we should try to get it into a window, maybe? That way they'll hear it come in and stuff.
livlaughlove: now i'm feeling like i'm running in a dream (206)

[personal profile] livlaughlove 2023-12-18 05:14 pm (UTC)(link)
That'd probably be easier, actually. I just didn't know if breaking a window was a good idea.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not a fan of property damage, but I feel like in this instance it's probably worth it…?
livlaughlove: oh, wake me, please intervene (211)

[personal profile] livlaughlove 2023-12-19 04:10 pm (UTC)(link)
You've been here longer, so I'll defer to your judgment.
mooninthewater: (330)

[personal profile] mooninthewater 2023-12-19 04:49 pm (UTC)(link)
…Sorry. We should probably ask someone else what their opinion is. My judgement is pretty much always wrong…
livlaughlove: and i'm trying to scream (208)

[ HE CAN'T THAT'S LITERALLY HIS WHOLE CHARACTER- ]

...Uh- [ Look he's all nervous now- ] I-I think... we just throw it over the fence and we see what happens...

W-we can't go outside right now anyway so maybe we can sleep on it or something
livlaughlove: or just for your pride? (205)

[personal profile] livlaughlove 2023-12-19 05:22 pm (UTC)(link)
[Staring. Bro, come on.

Livio really can't tell if Mizuki is fucking with him at this point.]


... They don't come outside, right?
mooninthewater: (40)

[personal profile] mooninthewater 2023-12-19 05:30 pm (UTC)(link)
I don't think so. Not from what I know.
livlaughlove: feeling hopeless and there's nothing i can do (228)

[personal profile] livlaughlove 2023-12-19 05:48 pm (UTC)(link)
Then property damage seems necessary.
