[open] 📌 hey brother there's an endless road to rediscover

[phoenixdominant]

Who: Joshua Rosfield + you
Status: Open
Where: The Roost, Eltrut and Nogard.
What: An open log and a catch-all for all things March. Some manta board quests and open prompts.
Warnings: Tba.



[ 📌 a. the roost; closed to the hideaway crew + adjacent cr]

[Since Joshua's brother Clive's sudden departure into the rifts, a certain gaggle of brightly colours birds have been left behind to manage. While the crew has divided the work up thus far, Joshua feels as though the task of taking care of the island's local chocobos should be mostly his responsibility.

Now he finds himself in the middle of the makeshift pen holding out two very large, very juicy radishes out like they're vegetable-shaped swords.]

Now... Please. Let's try this again, shall we? Please be gentle when taking your treats.

[The chocobos are starting to coo and whistle sweetly at him. But they're also starting to crowd in closer and closer... And it looks as though Joshua is going to be mauled under a mountain of feathery friends if he doesn't get a hand with feeding them soon.]

[ 📌 b. manta board: out of the blue]

[Joshua may be aboard The Enterprise, The Stormbringer or any one of the neutral ships for this quest while going out to sea in search of the ever elusive and rare gemstone sharks. The early springtime air is still chilly on the wind but it's a beautiful sunny day for trying to find some exotic or dangerous fish.

Although, Joshua isn't sure how dangerous they will actually be or not. When he sees one swimming serenely through the icy water, he can't help but to watch it with some awe. And these creatures are certainly worthy of awe.]

It seems almost a shame to capture them...

[📌 c. bounty: bear necessities]

[On Eltrut, Joshua is on a mission to help track down and apprehend the thief that has been stealing ... women's panties. It's an outrageous crime and one that should be stopped immediately!

... Please ignore the way his face is blushing mad?]

We must find this man and force him to face the reality of his crimes. Immediately...!

[Perhaps Joshua has a personal stake in this bounty? Maybe someone took- his undergarments. Not that he would ever admit such a thing since he is not, in fact, a woman!? He is a gentleman!]

[📌 d. wildcard;]

[got something else? feel free to put it down here. or you can find me at michrure for more planning]

[The boots come off? Joshua is puzzled but he understands and takes his own boots off too...!

He follows behind Khalid carefully... And with their heightened hearing, they might just hear the sound of scuttling across the ground. Like little tiny claws are walking across the wood. Joshua makes a gesture and nods.

It seems their little culprits are inching closer...]

[deepstar]

[ It reduces the sounds that they are making. Honestly, it's great that Joshua catches on. Now they can hear that scuttling and honestly that's not what Khalid had been expecting.

Khalid nods in return, circling around to the opposite side of Joshua. Maybe they can cage these things in.

But then the scuttling stops. There's definitely munching going on. They are taking the bait.

He motions to Joshua "pop up and slap the book closed on 3"

3~ ]

[Three!

Joshua jumps out and slams the trap shut. A little flat bookmark-like creature with a thin furry body and sharp little fangs is effectively trapped in the trap!!

... But there's a flourish of scattering as several more of them run to hide.]

There is more than one?!

[deepstar]

[ Khalid also jumps up and slams a book shut. So they both have captured one. His eyes are looking towards the others hightailing it out of the area. Claude tsks. How could they have predicted that there's more than one!? ]

Well. Looks like we're going to have a busy night. At least we know what we're looking for.

[ He motions to the closed books in their hands. Maybe they can find a box to put these things in? ]

[phoenixdominant]

[Joshua nods... It's going to be a long night, indeed! Luckily, they've been given a milk crate of sorts to store the trapped bookmarks for now. So, Joshua carefully manoeuvres to grab it.]

We'll keep them here for now. It should suffice to contain at least a few, though we may need to return for a second night.

[deepstar]

It's not like I have any other pressing appointments.

[ Yeah. Just. Dumping the ones that have been caught into that container.

Then he's just. Sitting in the middle of the floor, closing his eyes. Claude's definitely trying to listen for any scurrying or munching. ]

[phoenixdominant]

[Don't mind as Joshua watches that and lets out the smallest chuckle.

Which Claude will be able to hear, thanks to the potion's magic...]
