The Case of the Missing Cooki--er, Children

[celestial_wizard]

WHO: Various Interested Parties (i.e. Anyone! Newbies, Oldbies, Applebees -- )
WHAT: The Mystery of the Missing Children!
WHEN: in...abouuuuuut... RIGHT NOW
WHERE: Fayren Woodlands and Fayren Farmlands mostly


Whoever you are, wherever you are, if you're in Genessia City or Fayren today, you may find yourself being accosted by an elderly woman in her late sixties. Her wrinkly sun baked skin is dotted with freckles, a long white braid over one shoulder with stray wisps of hair coming loose. Her posture was stooped and she walked with a slow hobble, muttering to herself and trying to get the attention of anyone who would stop.

"Sir.. Sir have you seen this girl?"

"Madame, have you seen this boy?"

"Oh poor me... poor me..."

"Wherever could they have gotten to..?"

- whenever she drew near enough to someone or if they slowed down to listen, she grabbed for their arm with a surprisingly strong grip, and spoke in a voice that was raspy.

"Such a sad fate...such poor children. Please, won't you hear me out?"

--------------------------------------

The woman gave her name as Wuada Tuis and she solemnly informed anyone who listened to her, that several charges under her care had seemingly disappeared overnight. She and her cousin Ai Xudanon have been searching for the children (a total of six missing little ones in all) who may have been kidnapped somewhere between the farmlands and the forests in Fayren. Unfortunately they can't travel there as it is perilous for such elderly souls and won't such fine, strapping young creatures help them out kindly please. A reward of course, is offered.

[ OOC: OKAY. I'm going to be setting up multiple threads so HOLD YER HORSES <3; you can talk with the old lady, go straight on to investigate places, sit back and eat cheese or other. I encourage threadjacking because who doesn't like new CR? Also as a side note even if you didn't respond to the OOC post you can participate. The more the merrier :3 I lied. You can't really sit back and eat cheese. ]

Sitting Back, Eating Cheese

[celestial_wizard]

Meeting new people? Stumbling upon old friends? Feel free to use this thread for general chatter, camping, or anything that doesn't really fit in the previous three headers. OR make your own! The power is yours!

The cheese however, is mine.

Meet new people? Stumble upon old friends? That's just what this one is here for. Lucky!

But for now she's perched up in a tree, parasol open above her head, feet kicking as she enjoys a snack of delicious cheese.

"Hmm." She pauses, looking a little disappointed when her snack is gone but then she brightens up and cheerfully declares: "I'm bored!"

And then she alights from her perch and skips away, humming to herself. Because somebody out there had to go and encourage threadjacking.

Not here, I just... :D

[celestial_wizard]

My cheese! T.T

[Don't worry, Capricorn will surely bring more in the very near future!]

[celestial_wizard]

[ YAY! ]

[onecream_fivesugar]

Look out Nui! There's a girl who isn't paying attention to where she's going, she's going to walk right into you if you aren't careful! Noooooooooo!

[grand_couturier]

Oooooh~? That sort of thing wouldn't do at all! She should really be more careful.

But in a bizarre twist of fate, Ruby's foolproof "walk headfirst into new people" plan fails utterly as said new person zips out of her path. She does stop just behind her though, lean in close, takes a deep breath and.......

"LOOK OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOUUUUUUUUT!"

[onecream_fivesugar]

Ruby can't believe her foolproof plan didn't work, mainly because she didn't have any idea what was actually going on around her. When Nui screams into her ear she'll jump back and scream herself.

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH! What!? LOOK OUT FOR WHAT!?"
