MINGLE LOG 001: Bring On The Welcome Union

MINGLE LOG 001



Bring On The Welcome Union


I. Hearty Welcome.


It has been some time since Travelers have joined the citizens of Restoria and the Cities are excited to show their appreciation! A large festival has been planned for the First Seventh (the beginning seventh of the Restorian sun cycle) and occurring at the Greenhouse of Unity with a beautiful aurora display in the sky accompanied by music and dancing and fireworks to greet them for their stay.

Some business owners and artisans will even give out free items to welcome you, from unique jewelry meant to hold the reore you are sure to earn, to clothing meant to help you stay warm in the City of Cloud, or glowing gemlights, meant to help you navigate the underground tunnels of the City of Stone when needed. It will continue on with various Restorians performing special acts and feats of magic with different stones, a display of some of the skills that can be learned as you train and continue to strengthen your bonds to the world and the people in it. With all of this revelry and burgeoning camaraderie, you may feel swayed to strike out and meet new people, introduce yourself to others and even get in a cuddle on a soft cushion or warm bench. If you would like to take the stage and perform yourself, people will be more than encouraging!

All of this ends in a large banquet in the Hall of Communion. The chefs will even ask you for requests, seeking to replicate recipes of foods you know and love, to help you feel more at home. Although you may notice that the food on Restoria is not exactly like the foods on your own worlds and the chefs may get creative in recreating the recipe as "faithfully" as possible.

But don't worry, they are sure you will adore it if you just give it a try. All of the food is very filling and may increase those warm, fuzzy feelings of friendship.

As the festivities wind down, you'll be escorted back to the dormitories if needed with many thanks, but should you choose to walk the Greenhouse during the Second Shift for the Greenhouse of Unity, remember that the number of guards have been increased, and they insist on accompanying you so you don't feel alone. If you refuse, they'll remain a respectful distance away, but eyes are often watching.


II. Easy Breezy


A strong wind blows by you through the pavilion of the Greenhouse and should you turn to look at its source, you'll find people floating, spinning and soaring up into the air. A large insignia of the House of Cloud has been drawn over the ground, taking up quite a bit of space. Surrounding the seal are several glowing stones on staffs softly floating a few inches off the ground. Members of the House of Cloud walk around the perimeter ensuring that people can safely enjoy their Airwalks.

They turn to you and ask if you would like a walk yourself! Don't worry, it's perfectly safe. Just step onto the seal with both feet and you'll feel lighter, your steps barely touching the ground until gravity leaves you altogether. You'll lift into the air, feeling the soft winds taking you higher and higher. You can twirl, spin, do somersaults, or shoot yourself up into the air. Just be careful not to bump into anyone else and not to go beyond the reach of the Tree or you'll find yourself untethered and plummeting back down to the ground. As long as you are within the seal, you can fly, but try to leave and the trip back down will be swift. Hopefully, someone will be there to slow your fall.


III. Strong Armed


There's the noise of thuds and thumps and loud cheers coming from a different area of the pavilion. Turning to look, you'll see another group of people standing within a large insignia of the House of Stone. The people of Stone are very happy that Travelers have come, allowing them to show off one of their favorite pastimes: blacksmithing! It is a skill that existed long, long ago on Restoria as an important need for survival, but as Restorias have ascended to immortality, it has turned into a hobby meant to test skill, detail, and efficiency. Being intune with the old traditions is very important to them.

And so many of the blacksmith hobbyists have brought their simple armors and blunted weapons for you to try on and test out. There are wooden dummies, stone pillars, and even protective stones you can wear, just in case. Please feel free to spar with one another to test how strong the armor is, or have a playful match to see who has more skill with a blade. All in good fun and with the knowledge you'll be expected to shake hands or even hug when you are done. No hard feelings!


IV. Standing Quest: Herb-A-Reore

Reward: 💎 Reore
Skills Required: None
Skills Gained: Botany
Expires: Never


With the large influx of Travelers, so comes the Merging, where the worlds of the visitors and Restoria begin to mesh and mix. The Sentinels take care to catalog many of these changes, including the new flora that show up around the cities, which they carefully cultivate in the large Conservatory. With the Travelers available, they request assistance in cataloging all of these new arrivals.

Please see the Standing Quest Log to make a top level for the quest! All threads must occur on the quest log to count for quest rewards!

Ulari Orakos

[personal profile] seenicroute 2021-06-06 04:07 pm (UTC)(link)
I.A. Hearty Welcome
[Ulari can't say he's surprised. Festivals and banquets being a manner of celebration really does span the universes. It's quaint, in a way, to have something so simple yet be so different from what he expects.

And Ulari is never someone who turns down a chance at jewelry. He looks over the booth set up by some of the craftspeople, as they try to play him with the different necklaces, bracelets, and even a few earrings. He raises his hand with a laugh.]


Oh, I haven't had my ears properly pierced in years. The holes never want to stay. But those bracelets are quite lovely.

[He turns to whoever is never to him.]

What do you think? Do they look sturdy enough for fancy wallets?


I.B. Hearty Communion
[Ulari doesn't give any specifics on foods he would like. He's not particularly choosy when it comes to food as long as it tastes good enough to eat. Some of the foods Vezra had him try weren't even particular good for eating, he'd say... He's built up a tolerance.

But he does take the time to look around at what other people have requested and try some of those dishes instead. Is he in your personal space? You might have to ask him to move, because he won't bother on his own. He'll be too busy reaching across you to try whatever foods are close by.]


I'm not sure this is meant to look like this...but I have to say the taste is...unique.


II. Easy Breezy
[Airwalking? Now that's amazing little trick that Ulari can watch from a distance. It looks fascinating--and horrifying--to see people being lifted into the air but soft winds. But when they try to encourage him to try it himself, he'll laugh and try to decline.]

Ah...no, I am enjoying seeing everyone else have their fun.

[And the fact he has a "dislike" of heights has nothing to do with it, surely. He chose to be in Cloud of all places? Well, the library happens to be very compelling and flying in the air is very different from living on a mountain. Don't judge him. Besides, he'll look to whoever is nearby and point them out.]

Why not ask this fine person? I would have to get in line before they even have a chance to experience it.


III. Strong Armed
[Now this is more his speed. Or would be if he was someone who enjoyed wearing armor and punching things. But he does enjoy watching other people wear armor and punch things, so just as good, wouldn't you say? He'll be sitting on one of those benches, giving some commentary, because who doesn't enjoy commentary? ]

Oh, that does look rather good on you. You might want to adjust those straps.

[Would he know if it's being worn properly? Not at all.]

[Eddie blinks a few times as he looks up at the person suddenly in his space. If it bothers him, it certainly doesn't show. After a moment, he glances back down at the, uh, delicacies? in front of him.]

I have no idea how you even make macaroni and cheese blue. Or how you make, um, flower? shaped macaroni.
seenicroute: (003)

[personal profile] seenicroute 2021-06-08 12:03 am (UTC)(link)
[Ulari grabs the platter of what he assumes are some kind of strawberry shortcakes--even if they don't look anything like strawberries, shrugging as he sets two of them on his plate.]

Probably the same way they make those special edition macaroni? Or some kind of pasta press.

[He uses his fork to snag some of the flower macaroni and cheese to try it.]

At least the cheese smells like cheese. [He takes a bite...and it's definitely not the typical cheese expected of "mac'n'cheese." It's not bad but it's...something.]

Hm...could use more seasoning.

[personal profile] apocultypse 2021-06-07 05:36 am (UTC)(link)
You think so?

[Ishaq holds the heavy sword at too acute an angle, the weight unbalanced in his long, delicate fingers. The armor encapsulates him badly, his bodily geometry shifts beneath metal plates like uneasy magma. Sharp elbows poke out, a thin chest mishandles the heft of iron so direly that he hunches to compensate. Ulari is right; the leather straps did him no favors while this loose.]

Thought this might be a lark, [he says, throat thick with regret.] But I'm no paladin.
seenicroute: (026)

[personal profile] seenicroute 2021-06-08 12:11 am (UTC)(link)
I'm not whatever that happens to be either, but we've agreed to be here, so you may as well take what you can of it and enjoy.

[Adjusting the straps and how the armor sits on him would go a long way, but he may have just picked something that doesn't fit his style. People do that so often when it comes to fashion they've never worn before.]

You could always go for the leather-and-steel design that lovely person over there is showing off. A bit more flexible to the body, I'd say.

[Ulari on the other hand is showing no attempt to try on any of it. None of it would be loose enough for his liking.]

[Ben is in the middle of turning down another, kind person offering him jewelry when Ulari draws his attention. He knows next to nothing about jewelry - well, no, that's a lie, he doesn't know about current jewelry, or this other world jewelry, nerdy little antique lover that he is.

He considers the question for a moment, scratching at his cheek before he shrugs]
I ain't the best judge, but they look sturdy to me?
seenicroute: (010)

[personal profile] seenicroute 2021-06-09 11:43 pm (UTC)(link)
[He picks up the bracelet, it's round and smooth, and tries to bend it. It doesn't budge. The only way to manipulate it seems to be the clasp that adjusts it around the wearer's wrist.]

It's better than having to fit a bag of coins on my person. Those would be so heavy.

[He doesn't try it on himself though. He turns and holds it out to the man he's been standing near.]

Try it on.

Ah, but you were here first.

[He's also not keen on flying. Trying the uno-reversal now.]

It would go against all manners to cut in front of you like that. So...

[Gestures to the flight seal.]
seenicroute: (013)

[personal profile] seenicroute 2021-06-11 03:50 am (UTC)(link)
Oh no, you've been watching, haven't you? I insist that you go first. I'd hate to take the opportunity away from someone else.

[The person watching them both seems more than willing to cut off whatever back-and-forth they might get into by informing them there is room enough for two more people to step into the seal, so please don't feel the need to give up their chance!

How wonderful. Ulari might not be against climbing a mountain, and managed to walk the long staircase on the edge of a cliff, but this is very different, indeed.]

Eddie Myers

[personal profile] slidesrightoff 2021-06-07 02:55 am (UTC)(link)
I. Hearty Welcome
[While this hadn't been how he'd intended to spend his Saturday (Was it even still Saturday in this dimension? Did they have "Saturday"s? He'd have to check), it's clear he's not letting his change of plans get him down. He has fully committed to everything Restoria has to offer, from wandering up to anyone who even glances his way and introducing himself with a dazzling grin, to sampling any strange foods someone puts in front of him (and with an organic stomach, that's quite a gamble).

The only thing he doesn't do enthusiastically is accept the free gifts most of the vendors offer him. It just doesn't feel right, taking things that he hasn't earned. He tries politely turning them down, but they only seem to get more insistent, which only makes the unright feeling in his stomach tighten (and for once he's sure it's not due to any of the weird food he ate). He might glance over at someone nearby, hoping they might help him.]


II. Easy Breezy
[Eddie had always wondered what it was like to fly. It felt like half of the heroes in Mercury City (and a good deal of the "villains" too) counted flight among their skillset. But now, up in the air, he feels lighter than ever, and he absolutely sees the appeal.

Though he had been tentative at first, he has now gone full ham, bending and twisting in ways he thought his metal body would never move, grinning and laughing as if it was the greatest thing in the world. Who wouldn't love this?

Seeing someone pop up next to him, he startles but recovers quickly.]


Isn't this awesome?!

III. Strong-armed
[Eddie has a sword. He had been offered several things, mostly armors, that he politely turned down (being metal and all already), but then the sword caught his eye. It was absolutely beautiful, with gold inlay and a blue gem in the hilt. The weight and balance are positively perfect.

His uncle would have loved it.

He finds himself ushered towards a wooden dummy to test it out. Not wanting to be polite, he obliges. While he's not an expert swordsman by a longshot, it's clear from his moves he knows what he's doing, and he's comfortable using a blade.

Several moments later, the dummy's head goes flying, detached from the rest of it. Eddie reaches up to scratch at his neck with his free hand.]


Uh... Oops?
apocultypse: (Engage.)

i.

[personal profile] apocultypse 2021-06-07 05:53 am (UTC)(link)
I think what my friend means, [interjects a voice smooth as a polished ruby,] is that your artisanal skill has struck him senseless. The spun of that silk! The vibrant green! A dewy spring morning tailor-made, it seems impossible, can you blame him for being overwhelmed?

[As he wraps a lanky arm around Eddie's shoulder, Ishaq tries to gently steer him beyond this insistent vendor's orbit. His cranes his neck back, the dawn of his smile apologetic.]

Your skill is met only with your generosity.

[His footsteps keep an upbeat pace as he whispers to Eddie:] Should we all be so wary of their gifts? Or is green just not your color?
slidesrightoff: (Sleepy)

[personal profile] slidesrightoff 2021-06-09 02:25 am (UTC)(link)
[Eddie allows himself to be whisked away, happy for the exchange to be over.]

It's not like that. I just... it doesn't feel right to get something for free, you know? They made those.

Thanks, by the way.

....I give it about a five....five n' a half.

[ And here's this guy looking amused but not nearly impressed, despite the slow turning he seems to be doing. ]

Fascinating that they could generate this much lift from a resting position but, I suppose that's just how their magic is. And I suppose it's better than being denied flight.

[ And he sighs, already missing his magic and feathered form. ]
slidesrightoff: (Stretch)

[personal profile] slidesrightoff 2021-06-10 03:12 am (UTC)(link)
[Eddie barely manages not to look personally offended that someone isn't finding this as thrilling as he is, choosing instead to float upside down simply because he could, and how is that not cool?]

Well, a sigil's involved, so that usually helps to boost things, and then there's the magic stone-y stick things that I'm willing to bet the same... Plus it looks like a bunch of them pooled their magic together to cast the spell. If one person did this, I'd be shocked.

Do people fly all the time where you're from? Some people in my world do, but I didn't have the pleasure.

I. Hearty Welcome
a. [it has been a long, long time since Ben's to a festival of any kind, and he can't help but wandering around, trying to see everything he can. He politely turns down most of the gifts as politely as he can, and for the most insistent he accepts them with only a little grumbling.

But the festival and general mood of it all does improve his own mood. Maybe you catch him not-quite shopping, or when he stops to look at the displays of magic, trying not to look as excited as he is to see real magic]


This is something else, huh?

b.[later at the banquet, Ben decides to request pizza; it's not too hard, it can be topped with almost anything, and he had a feeling some people here had no idea what it was and he's only doing his due dilligence, okay.

Except when the pizza comes, it's . . . well, it's not the color pizza should be. Ben lifts a purple and green slice dubiously, studying it as though it may bite him at any moment. It looks more like some weird pie slice than pizza, but it smells mostly like pizza]


Seriously though, how'd it turn out purple?

II. Easy Breezy
[okay, listen. People flying? Really cool. Watching how it all goes down and how they make it look easy as all hell? Awesome.

But you can forget it if you think Ben Douglass is going out there. No thanks, no sir.

He stands somewhere off to watch, though when one of the members ask him if he wants to give it a try . . .]


Yeah, no, my feet are staying on the ground, thanks.

III. Strong Armed
[why would anyone give him a sword, seriously. He tries to explain to the guy that hey, he'd love to swing this around and try to look cool, but he's probably gonna hit someone in the face or more likely, hit himself in the face, and he isn't cut out for this.

But the kind man just laughs and insists and Ben now has a sword. And he's standing in front of a dummy that he's supposed to hit with said sword, but - ]


Who's the real dummy here, christ.

[someone save him]


[or you can wildcard, feel free to come up with other prompts if these don't work for you!]
apocultypse: (Flirt.)

[personal profile] apocultypse 2021-06-08 02:13 am (UTC)(link)
Refreshing to see someone so grounded, [he says, his teasing smile crinkling the corners of his darkly red eyes.] It's not so bad, really, drifting in the wind up there. Shame to forgo the experience altogether.

[Only the briefest of pauses before he leans in towards Ben, his voice dropping to a conspiratorial whisper.]

I'd be happy to escort you.
privateeyed: (and now regret won't waste my life again)

[personal profile] privateeyed 2021-06-08 03:49 am (UTC)(link)
[Ben crosses his arms as the guy leans in - not closing off, per say, but more because he knows he's going to gesture and he's stopping that before it can happen]

Ha ha. [points already, puns are great] Thanks but no thanks, it'd be real embarrassing if my lame ass got sick out there. Trust me, I'm better off staying right here.

Chauncy Morior

[personal profile] yachtrock 2021-06-08 02:18 pm (UTC)(link)
IA. Hearty Welcome.

Oh, thank you. Most kind.

[A little overwhelmed, but that doesn't seem to be stopping Chauncy from taking everything handed to him, from jewelry to clothes to gemlights. He's definitely awkwardly trying to hold it all, used to having things either neatly packed away when he travels or if he knows he's going to be shopping, he has someone with him to carry things for him. Which is exactly what he's intending on doing, looking around for someone who looks like they can carry his new belongings for him.]

Hello- pleasure to meet you- may I ask a favor? In helping me carry all this?

IB.

[Properly settled in now, Chauncy has several dishes in front of him. He didn't have too much faith in the chefs to be able to make the dishes perfectly, so he ordered... a variety pack of different things, hoping that they'd get at least one right. Unfortunately (or maybe for some, fortunately) he's got enough for a meal and a half in front of him. Most nobles, he's sure, wouldn't offer to share, but he has the experience of living a little more down-to-earth, and knows that he isn't in the same position he was only a short while ago. He has to make friends. And most people like it when you share.

So to whomever is sitting nearby, he gestures towards the plates and beverages in front of him.
]

I ordered too much, feel free to try any of these. There's ginger-thyme gin and tonics, chèvrre-stuffed shells with butternut squash sauce, salmon with prosciutto cider broth, and sour cream rhubarb pie with ginger-pecan streusel for dessert. At least, that's what they should be. They might have made ingredient substitutions... Like salmon... I don't actually know if they have salmon here.

III. Strong Armed

[While most might have gone ahead and tried out the armor and weapons for offer, Chauncy seems to be trying to bargain with one particular blacksmith who had been touting stones.]

...Yes, magic rings. Not normal ones. Or necklaces, I'll settle for necklaces as well. No? ... Bracelets?

[He sounds like he's about to give up on this venture.]

You must have quite the palate. And so quick to identify--do all of these herald from your world?

[Looking around for something he can proclaim, Ishaq glances elsewhere down the banquet table towards a nest of grapes and catches the adjacent display of what might have been hard tack--an unforgiving, sallow bread born stale and custom to Traitor's Keep. That can't be right, he thinks, before surrendering his full attention to this man sat beside him.]

Impressive, [he says with a warm smile.] Already making an impact.

[Unlike Chauncy, Eddie is empty-handed as he walks through the fair. He figures that's what made him such a prime target.]

I, uh, would rather not. Maybe don't take so much if you can't carry it all.

[sooner or later Ben has given up on swords and armor or whatever, so he's off to the side to watch the people who actually know what they're doing. He's set himself up to stand near the blacksmith to watch as he works, but he can't help but overhear and, well, Ben is not great at keeping his mouth shut]

Magic jewelry? Really?

[he sounds intrigued and dubious at the same time]

Arha Masaari | House Cloud | OTA

[personal profile] lightsider 2021-06-27 02:05 pm (UTC)(link)
Hearty Welcome

Arha's always been an exploring type of person, so this day is no exception. It's her new home after all. Her purchases are small but they've been chosen with care and she is pleased with them. Something to wear for the cold of Cloud was a must, for example, and she would need to carry reore, a few gemlights for safety if need be, and she'd stayed to watch the magic, of course, which was brilliant.

Never a picky eater, she was delighted by the attempts to replicate kaf and sat drinking hers, smiling and waving to others as they came in or took leave. The revelry was definitely a good time to meet others, that was for sure, and she called out to familiar-looking faces.

"Hello there! Will you come keep me company for a bit? You should try this drink, it's terribly good."

Easy Breezy

She couldn't pass up this, could she? Springing through the air on the seal, she vaulted high and steady, testing her limits as she had as a youngling at the Temple. Acrobatics had always been fun for her, so, she twists and does turns in the sky like a natural. When she finally comes down, it's with a neat descent and bright laughter.

"It's actually really fun," she says to someone watching the whole thing. "Are you going to try it? I'll come with you if you want."

Seeing someone calling him, he stops and looks over her way.

"Hi!" He says with a wave. It isn't long before he's crossed the distance between them. "I mean, I don't want to be rude and say no, but some of their food choices have been... um... inspired. Are you sure it's actually good?"

He doesn't want to be tricked into trying something gross again.
