gamepost: The Playground (kids-only)

Feb 23, 2010 16:35

Picture the best playground you've ever seen, whether it be at a school, a park, or a private home. Now picture one ten times better than that. This is that playground.

There are swings. There are merry-go-rounds. There are ridiculously tall slides and jungle gyms. There's a huge, sprawling "castle" complex that you could get lost in for hours on ( Read more... )

Sam's never seen a castle that's not stone before and he was hoping to sneak into the forge after his sword work but this is cooler.

A boy of about twelve with a Charter Mark on his forehead and in a rather sweaty tunic laughs and heads for the jungle gym, he might be trying to take it apart with lots of little spells or at least figure out what's holding it together.

The pigtailed girl currently hanging by her knees from said jungle gym would appreciate it if you didn't take it apart just yet, Sameth.

She offers the new arrival an upside-down wave.

Its not coming apart anyway, there's just lots of lights and he keeps burning his fingers but does look up and wave.

im_so_sari February 24 2010, 05:20:56 UTC

"What'cha doin'?"

makesthings February 24 2010, 05:21:45 UTC

"Trying to do some forge stuff, but its not working like its supposed to. Mother's going to be angry since I burned myself again."

im_so_sari February 24 2010, 05:23:18 UTC

The pigtailed girl raises an eyebrow. "What d'you mean, 'forge stuff'?"

makesthings February 24 2010, 05:24:41 UTC

"With the metal."

He takes a piece of metal from his pocket and does a spell that makes it goes red and bend, it also makes the Mark on his forehead glow,

"See, like that."

!!!

The pigtailed girl drops down from her perch so she can get a better look. "How'd you do that??" she asks, eyes wide.

makesthings February 24 2010, 05:26:47 UTC

"With the Charter. What else would I use?"

There's a definite duh in his voice since everyone knows that.

im_so_sari February 24 2010, 05:28:37 UTC

"What's a Charter? Is it some new pocket tool? Dad didn't tell me he was developing anything like that..."

makesthings February 24 2010, 05:29:48 UTC

"The Charter just is. Are you from Ancelstierre?"

im_so_sari February 24 2010, 05:30:41 UTC

Blink. Blink.

"...no, Detroit."

makesthings February 24 2010, 05:31:19 UTC

"Where's that?"

im_so_sari February 24 2010, 05:37:48 UTC

"In Michigan? Between Lake Huron and Lake Erie?"

Now it's her turn to have a duh in her voice.

makesthings February 24 2010, 05:38:50 UTC

"I've never heard of any of those. I'm from the Old Kingdom."

im_so_sari February 24 2010, 05:40:29 UTC

"What, like, England and Scotland and everything?"
