A Mingle!

Who: YOU!!
When: Early Day 9 and onwards.
Where: A city corner!
What: WISHING WELL(s?)

At some point during the night a wishing well appeared in the corner, maybe it was a garbage can a second ago and you saw it blur, maybe it was a fire hydrant, maybe you just hadn't seen it before, but there it is!

There's a sign next to it reading:
"Toss a coin, make a wish!"
(WISHES NOT GUARANTEED TO COME TRUE)


Maybe you don't have a coin, but Coba's got your back; there's a pail full of coins next to the well.

So go on, make a wish. Or spy on other people making wishes (Or steal the coins). Surely nothing can possibly go wrong.

[Crap, he hadn't meant to worry her - Tyler holds his hands out, partially in defeat but also to reassure her.]

Hey! I've got lots of experience in dealing with them. It'll be fine, I promise.

[Whew. A big sigh goes here.]

I'm glad then. I am not versed in dealing with humans in more violent situations.

It's cool. Most people aren't. [He hopes. Mystic Falls seemed like the odd man out, in a sea of 'normal' cities across the country.]

If you're not, though.... does this mean vampires and werewolves aren't common where you're from?

I have never experienced them myself, no. I would not discount them as a possibility however.

[The Pixie by now has settled on Nagi's shoulder and pipes up.]

There are a lot of things humans don't get to really experience out there.

Yeah, I'm starting to learn that. A guy thinks he's only got a couple of supernatural weirdos hangin' around, but nope, it ends up being an entire army or two.

[He shakes his head, though he's quick to smile to indicate he's teasing.]

So... wishing wells. Actual thing for you guys, or should I just toss a coin and move on?

What's a wishing well precisely?

[That does answer the question somewhat, yes?]
lockwouldnt: (giving it thought)

[personal profile] lockwouldnt 2015-08-18 10:18 pm (UTC)(link)
[It sure does!]

Uh.... [How does he explain something he grew up with?] It's basically a place to donate money. You drop a coin in the well, in this case, and you make a wish on it. Sometimes it comes true, sometimes it doesn't.

Oh! It actually works?

[Or maybe it's something like faith that it will work? Nagi leans over the edge of the well, peering down into it quizzically. Meanwhile the Pixie has settled on the bucket of change, hefting a coin from it.]

Let's give it a try!

... What should we wish for though?

[For a moment the demon is silent. And then her grin turns distinctly mischievous, her voice taking a teasing lilt.]

Let's wish for luck in love.
