Third Night: The Longest Night

[Luna peers critically into the camera as it comes on. For once, it isn't wrapped in the pale blue shimmer of her magic; she reaches out a hoof to straighten it slightly.]

Excellent. Hold steady, Noctis.

[She turns and paces slowly away, to the edge of what turns out to be the belltower.] Tonight is the night of the Winter Moon Festival. My festival. 'Twas to be our first in...in some time. We had meant to gift our subjects with a grand and glorious sky, to show them all that -

[She stops, sounding near tears, and tosses her mane in frustration. Then, visibly composing herself, she takes a deep breath and lowers her head, her horn glowing first blue and then a bright silver as she takes flight. The silver light coalesces around and in front of her as she rises, until she is silhouetted against what seems to be a huge, brilliantly shining full moon, hanging high in the sky above Traverse Town.

Luna lands again, her horn still glowing faintly as she maintains the illusion. She's a little out of breath, but smiling triumphantly and somewhat defiantly.]


Tonight, there shall be a moon!

[Two] Video

[Bolin is sitting in his earth tent. Those who saw it originally built will notice that it has a few cushions and a sleeping bag inside now, a few comforts Bolin was able to get with the munny he had earned from fighting Nightmares. Ping was sleeping on his back, his stomach rising and falling.

Bolin was sitting at an earth-made "table" and trying to look serious or, at the very least, professional. Now, why would someone like Bolin pull this kind of face? Well, let him explain.

So, I'm mostly settled now I think. Thanks for everyone's help.

What I wanted to ask about though was jobs here in Traverse Town. I know I can get munny from taking out Nightmares, but that gets a little monotonous and so I figured there had to be something ELSE to do to pass the time. I started wondering what Mako would do if he were here and that's when it hit me: he would get a job!

What do you guys think? Are there any places around town that need some help? Even if it's menial labor or dirty jobs, I don't mind. I can do heavy lifting too and running deliveries wouldn't be a problem either since Ping and I can handle the nightmares. I've done stuff like that before for the Triple Threats too. Guard work too, actually.

See? I have a lot of skills that can be helpful. What do you say? Please hire me?

Message 01. Technicolor Animals 101

[The video flickers on to show both Wash and North in what looks like one of the hotel rooms. It’s far enough away that it’s obvious they’ve set it up on a flat surface somewhere. Wash is still wearing his helmet; old habits die very hard.]

Hey. Does anyone know anything about these Dream Eater things? We know they can fight and that you can make them from little rainbow pieces; aside from that, I’ve got nothing.

[There’s a squeak from offscreen, and Wash looks over-] Hey, get over here. [-and leans out of the frame.]

[North, meanwhile, has his helmet off, because all things considered, this area’s probably safe and he can let his guard down a bit. ]

Also, do they all carry loose change or something? It’s an odd way of making money.

[He glances over at Wash.]

Everything alright, Wash?

Yeah, fine, just- c’mere!

[There’s more squeaking offscreen, and finally Wash leans back into the frame, pulling his bat into his lap. The bat squeaks piteously, and it’s pretty obvious that one wing is bandaged.]

Is there a vet around here, or someone who knows how to take care of this? [He gestures at the bandage.] I can do this much, but that’s about it.

[Responses will come from both Wash ([personal profile] unrecovered) and North ([personal profile] brodakota).]
