Who: Exael, others
When: Day 5, Afternoon
Where: The Arena.
What: Game 3

[ Another day, another blast of the trumpets, another game.

Exael is there this time, in her human guise, standing in the center of the arena, and in the center of a giant circular mirror with a clock face painted on, that has been installed in the floor beneath her.

Both of the painted hands are currently pointed towards XII

Exael raises both her arms with a flourish and calls out as people enter: ]

Come one, come all! Take your positions, for soon the curtains will rise on our next act!

Ah --

[ but seeing as we're team i totally got this, they move to open the bird's cage. . . ]

Re: III - III - THE GARDEN

[fallenature]

[ the bird flies from the cage, up to a branch above, with a melodic chirp of appreciation.

The tarantula slowly crawls out towards Garnet's hand.

and the Chameleon leaves the cage, crawling onto the grass, already changing colour to blend in with its surroundings ]

[ CONTINUES TALKING TO THE ARACHNID I GUESS. leaving his hand down for it to crawl onto ]

Do you want to come with me...?

Re: III - III - THE GARDEN

[friend_request]

[ watches the bird fly up before turning their attention to the spider too ]

Oh, hello.

Re: III - III - THE GARDEN

[patchedwork]

[ respecting the chameleon's dignity by not picking it up ]

Hey, you got a friend.

Re: III - III - THE GARDEN

[fallenature]

[ well it's cage is on the second level. but it does seem very happy in Garnet's hands. ]

Re: III - III - THE GARDEN

[ IT'S A SPIDER IT COULD CLIMB IT

moving carefully to not dislodge it as he turns back to the others ]

Should we go back to the garden?

Re: III - III - THE GARDEN

[friend_request]

Yes. There may be more.

Re: III - III - THE GARDEN

[fallenature]

[ you continue back to the main garden. there's birds in the trees as you pass, and bugs here and there, but nothing else seems to have been caged.

a plot in the center of the garden is freshly tilled, the single unplanted flower bed in the garden. A small trowel, three seed bags, and a hand-written note sits by the dirt plot.

One bag has a small heart mark label; another, an illustration of a rose; and the last, a cloud. . . maybe a thought bubble? ]

Re: III - III - THE GARDEN

[friend_request]

. . .

[ I'm really too lazy to read but will bend down to examine the seed bags -- opening them to look inside curiously ]

Re: III - III - THE GARDEN

[paintwithallthecolors]

Should we plant something?

[ setting his hand to the ground in case the spider wants to crawl off, also maybe so he can use two hands. just. u kno. though it could also crawl up to his shoulder instead I guess ]

Re: III - III - THE GARDEN

[fallenature]

[ it crawls up to his shoulder ]

Re: III - III - THE GARDEN

[patchedwork]

I guess we could.

Re: III - III - THE GARDEN

[paintwithallthecolors]

It seems like the most obvious course of action, so it couldn't hurt. Which one?

Re: III - III - THE GARDEN

[friend_request]

This one?

[ points to the rose mark. . . ]

Re: III - III - THE GARDEN

[patchedwork]

It is a flower.

Re: III - III - THE GARDEN

[paintwithallthecolors]

Okay, let's plant it.

[ kneels in the dirt and starts scooping up a hole ]

Re: III - III - THE GARDEN

[friend_request]

Mm.

[ PLANTING SEED... seeds? ]

Re: III - III - THE GARDEN

[patchedwork]

Alrighty then.

[ i had the courtesy not to book it while you were making friends with spider. but let's go now ]
