open 💀 make some new magic
Who: Beat and you
Status: Open
Where: Around
What: Manta quests and general catch-all throughout June
Warnings: None currently, will add, if any.
[As soon as Beat sees the MANTA for working on graffiti around the leviathans, he immediately secures a couple of spray cans, a new sketchbook to figure out his ideas, and sets out to find a space he could work with.
Throughout the month, he can be found around Eltrut and Nogard, working on two different artworks in a rough graffiti style similar to the wall back in Shibuya. In Nogard, the artwork leans more towards a skull and crossbones theme, leaning into the Corsair vibe in vibrant reds, oranges, and yellow, with graffiti lettering of Corsair splashed prominently to one side. Meanwhile, in Eltrut, he goes for a tropical vibe, taking inspiration from natural habitat of the leviathan, with a few embellishments here and there—such as an eye patch on a sea turtle.
While he's laid out the groundwork, there's still more than enough space for anyone to join in on the fun, spray cans of various colors scatters by his feet. Or perhaps you even notice his sketchbook sticking out of his backpack, a few of his random sketches on the page—anything from a skateboard design, a random passer-by (maybe it's even someone your character may know) that he had been watching from a distance, or maybe even a few Pokemon he's been around of late. Whatever the case, he seems engrossed in his work, and may need more than a gentle jostling to snap out of it.]
Hold up, you want me to what?!
[If the loud exclamation isn't enough for you to investigate, you might spot him standing in front of the play group just as one of them hands him a couple of pages as part of the script. "Take your shirt off," one of them says. The rest of the group seem unfazed by the request, as if this was expected of whoever signed up.
When Beat had read the quest, he didn't get past the large text slapped on the top. You can't expect someone to read the finer print, especially when that someone just so happens to be Beat. So he, on the other hand, is absolutely fazed, going so far as to tug his shirt downward unconsciously.]
Yo, when I read about it, I thought you needed someone to rough a coupla people up!
[It did say "Slay" on the quest title, after all.]
[Your character finds a discarded fishing rod in the middle of the shore or riverbank, a small canister of fish bait close-by. What you don't find nearby is its owner.
After a moment or two, you notice a figure standing out in the water, crouching with his hands up in the air on either side. He stands still before suddenly diving to grab at something in the water, disappearing underneath. He resurfaces eventually.
At times, he is empty-handed, sulking momentarily before moving to another spot and assuming the stance once more, seemingly in another attempt to catch something out of the water.
Otherwise, he struggles to resurface, finally breaking water with what seems to be a fish in hand. It doesn't go down without a fight, wriggling and thrashing as it tries to break free from Beat's grip.]
Ain't gonna be any easier if you don't stop movin'!
[As if it was going to talk back to him. Either way, help a guy out?]

fifty shades of slay—

2/2 this is so stupid, I'm sorry
[And, after being caught by surprise by that attack, Beat stumbles backwards into the water as well, sending up a huge splash in his wake.]
10/10 i'm HOWLING
[ Zelda lets out an alarmed yelp as the fish not only makes an impressive escape from its captor, but lands a critical hit to his face that sends him crashing into the water again. She's close enough at this point that the resulting splash hits her as well, soaking her clothes from the waist down.
Rather than rush to help him, Zelda throws out her right hand towards where the fish is hurriedly swimming away. A heavy -thunk- sounds out of nowhere as she catches hold of it with her magic. Waves of gold and grey magic shimmer around the fish as it starts moving backwards, as if Zelda was literally rewinding the last few seconds. It pops out of the water and she makes a motion with her hand to freeze it in place, floating in midair with a pale gold aura shimmering around it.
Zelda barely pays a second thought to the legitimately incredible magic trick she just performed and hurries over to Beat. ]
Are you all right? What in the world are you trying to do?
[ She extends a hand towards him to help him to his feet. ]
we're in it for the comedy
Hairtie?
[This was the first time he's seen her since his memories had returned, and the odd nickname he'd given her immediately came back to him. He blinks at her with a dumbfounded look on his face before he takes her hand, pulling him back to his feet.
Wait, the fish!] Dammit! I had finally got one an' it—
[The expression on his face shifts from surprise to annoyance to confusion in quick succession as he realizes something. Wait a minute... Fish don't fly.]
Hold up! What the hell?!
