open!
Who: Bailey Morello & You!
When: Juril
Where: Various
What: Quests and circus visits and hopefully not embarrassing anyone too badly.
Warnings: There shouldn’t be any need!
the cheeriest;
[Making bread isn’t exactly new to Bailey - their mother insisted they learn how to cook, though the breads she made and these buns aren’t really all that similar. Which, okay, not so surprising considering Aefenglom is nothing like their home.
Well. Turnskins are kind of similar to some creatures they’ve met at home, and so are vampires, but two things don’t exactly make a place feel familiar. Still, homesickness is no reason to be mopey, and they especially can’t be mopey when they’ve got a job to do.]
You’re doing great.
[Their voice is soft on a good day, so someone couldn’t be blamed for being confused over whether they’re addressing the loaf they’re kneading or another volunteer. And, honestly, Bailey isn’t quite sure who they’re addressing either. All they need to do is compliment, right…?]
You’re really gonna rise to the occasion…!
[And make puns, apparently.]
circus, festivities flavor
[A circus! Not something Bailey would usually get excited about, but they can’t deny that they’re curious to see everything going on here. The food is a welcome change from what they usually eat, and they’ll gladly share food with anyone who doesn’t have enough money to buy something. (Or someone who’s very convincing that they don’t have any money, anyways.)
Something they’re less glad about is the games. They’re standing at the stall, frowning deeply.]
This seems more rigged than carnival games usually are…
[Hmm! They turn towards the person nearest them, thoughtfully holding a ring for the ring toss.]
Right? Not everyone would be doing this terribly…
[Enchanting a game to always lose just seems too unfair…!]
circus, no inhibitions flavor;
[The performance is amazing, and they don’t notice the spell that’s taken hold of everyone. They just feel delighted! It was beautiful and wondrous and they’re feeling good, and they hope everyone else is feeling good, too.
Everyone else is certainly looking good, which is not a thought Bailey lets themself think very often. They’re a shy, awkward sort and they’ve known that about themself for years, long before they became Bailey. Still, maybe it’s just a burst of confidence from all of the awe, because they can’t stop themself from stepping up to the person who managed to catch their eye.]
Ah, sorry! I just wanted to say you’re really beautiful.
[Or maybe they say handsome, or cute. The point of the matter is there’s a very tall faun with curling horns smiling sheepishly, with their hands pressed together in front of them.]
wildcard;
[Feel free to throw something at me, or hit me up at
daintily or in the disco!]

Am I not allowed to be in a good mood?
holy shit i missed this
[ she's happy to see bailey looking so at ease. usually they're kind of...uptight? at least, that's how she sees it. but to see them be so carefree and light is really nice. ]
But you didn't answer my question...so something nice must've happened, huh?
no subject
I guess so! I don't really know what it was, though... I guess it's just nice to not have to worry about all of my responsibilities for once?
no subject
[ she will call them out as much as she wants to and they can't stop her. (yes they can.) ]
Actually, I have a question for you, now that we're on that subject: What do you think of this place? Do you like it better than home?
no subject
[The joys of being employed... You get financial security (for the most part) and also so many things you have to do.
At the question, they pause. They're... Not really sure how to answer that. They don't hate this place. It's much, much different than the world they left behind, but that isn't necessarily a bad thing.]
...I don't know. I don't hate it here, at least, but I don't know how I'd stack it up against home.
