Hope's End Guest Post: Day 6

[skinners_box]

Welcome to Day 6 of Hope’s End! This is where guest writers can have their characters post to the network. These posts will be handled the same way as any other post to the network, but we'll keep them grouped together for everyone's sanity.

All guest characters arrived in Hope’s End with a communicator that resembles a Blackberry. These have text,

Jin-Ho, Tsubaki...I have the flowers ready.

[Kurama smiles and nods before turning the camera to show the flowers which are just blooming. He turns back to the screen and smiles kindly]

And with that, I'm free for the afternoon.

[He touched the collar circulating around his neck and frowned. The chain was no longer black but a deep purple.]

Why did the color of our collars change? Is it part of this week's experiments?

... We're still here, strange.

[He's never seen quite a spell last this long for so many people so either the caster is more powerful than imagined or well... they have to wait longer. He goes wandering off in another direction, as the 'berry shows.]

I wonder what he'll want for breakfast today...

"Strange?"

Not at all.

[notatthetavern]

Oh? Perhaps you can help me, then. I heard from a few that this is only temporary?

[the_daybreak]

For you, yeah. As long as you've got a collar that isn't black, you'll be going home.

This isn't Silent Hill.

Where is Mary!? You don't understand, I have to find my wife!

[How exactly a pink and white tentacled monstrosity (in miniature! luckily being prototyped shrunk the creature quite a bit) has managed to turn on the video function is anyone's guess, but somehow Gl'bgolyb has done so and is waving her tentacles around at the device. 'Sup guys, have an eldritch terror. :D]

[With all the lusii floating around Feferi had to admit part of her had kept a careful eye out for her own. Admittedly it would be something of a mixed blessing if she was around, considering her size in normal form and her abilities beside.

But hey, a troll could dream, couldn't she? There weren't many things Feferi earnestly wished for, but seeing her lusus again was one of them.

So when she sees that broadcast she takes a minute to make sure of what she was seeing before turning on the feed clumsily.] Gl'bgolyb?

[She blinks a few times before bursting into an excited grin.] You- you're here! Oh my cod- where are you? Don't worry, I'll totally find you in two shakes of a fin!

video; I hope this works for you, I'm not sure how else to write her dialogue!

[riftscarbuncle]

[Ah, it's Her little one! Gl'bgolyb gives a very happy, whispery little glub at that, greeting Feferi. She continues glubbing that She doesn't know where She is, though She does flick the communicator around with a spritey tentacle to try to show her. She knows Feferi will find Her soon enough.]

video; that works great! and sorry for the delay, got swamped with things :T

[cuttlefishcull]

[Feferi beams even more back at that- she missed the whispers, she missed a lot of things. And off she goes, babbling a bit as she does, mostly just about where they were, and how things were.]

-and so many of us our here! Like, everyone! Sollux is here- you remember him, right? [And she pauses when she finally sees some familiar tentacles in the distance. It doesn't take her long to start dashing over. When she reaches the sprite obviously the first thing she does is give it a hug. It was weird she was small enough as a sprite that it wasn't just trying to hug one of her smaller tentacles.

She doesn't say anything for a moment, a little choked up.] I- I missed you, goofball.
