OPEN october catch-all!

[coronae]

WHO: rapunzel (rayne fairweather) & you!!
WHERE: various locations
WHEN: it's an october catch-all, jim
WHAT: monster shenanigans and also just rayne being rayne
WARNINGS: monster things occur, but it's pretty disney-rated???

one. pumpkin patch princess

[ "game on!" is a chilren's activity center. more specifically, it's a children's activity center where rayne fairweather works, and they've got a pumpkin patch booth set up where kids (or adults, they're not picky) can come to paint or carve their own pumpkins, depending on age. rayne is doing a mixture of both, a curving design of flowers decorating the smiling face of her jack-o-lantern.

obviously every pumpking she does is happy rather than spooky.

so just as obviously she has a pile of candy beside her, in a variety of flavors. her "favorite" is "everything!!!!!" and as she finishes her latest artistic masterpiece she enthusiastically lifts the lid and pours out...even more candy.

good god. she's figured out how to game the pumpkin system. when you spot her collecting Way Too Much Sugar she beams, waving at the pumpkin. ]

Isn't this the best type of magic???

[ she's gonna get cavities at this rate. ]

two. the missing links

[ rayne can be found loitering around wiffle-waffle if you'd like to grab her for an item quest before she gets infected by like. everyone she loves and adores. thanks guys!!!! ]

three. monster mash

[ chronologically the first virus rayne gets hit with is the mummy strain. what does this mean? well. at night she looks gaunt and instead of extra bandage appendages? yeah, her hair is moving with a will of it's own, occasionally wrapping around her arms or neck or what have you in a mimickry of traditional mummy's bandages. then comes the merperson strain, with sharp teeth in a double-line and a fondness for water, iridescent scales going up her legs rather like fancy leggings, and creeping up her neck out from under her dress. third she gets hit with the harpy strain, her feet hooking into talons and not quite managing to pass themselves off as cute heels. those are definitely just bird talons. she's still changing, though not just now, but that's as far as she's gone for this prompt.

find her:

a. hairy problems
so the thing about the mummy strain she has? it makes her VENGEFUL, willing to chase down wrong doers! but the thing about the personality she has in general mixing with this at the start?

yeah. so. if you happen to litter, either on accident or on purpose, there will be a NEFARIOUS HISS as some long blonde hair wraps around your wrist and a VENGEFUL rayne stands there in all her monstrous glory, to say: ]

Pick that up! There's a trashcan right over there.

[ she can also be found getting VENGEFUL about other minor infractions such as jaywalking, not putting your grocery cart back in the cart corral thing, or failing to wipe your feet off before you enter some indoors location and tracking in mud.

she's got this monster thing down PAT. ]

b. singalongs
[ or maybe you hear a lovely song near the beach or the park fountain? rayne can be found sitting on a Scenic Rock at the beach or on the park fountain's edge singing to herself.

or, you know, LURING someone to her RUDELY. ]

Flower, gleam and glow. Let your power shine...Make the clock reverse, bring back what once was mine. Heal what has been hurt; change the fates' design. Save what has been lost, bring back what once was mine - what once was mine...

[ it's her first memory, and the song loops in her head sometimes. ]

c. shiny that's mine
[ or maybe you've dropped, like, a penny. or something shiny. a treasured locket? a pen with one of those silver cappy things? if it gets dropped too near to rapunzel she'll immediately pick it up, clutching it to her chest and looking Determined if you come closer. ]

It's mine! [ it is not, but it's probably minor enough to let her have it...unless it's an IMPORTANT shiny thing. ]

wildcard.

[ alternately, feel free to throw any sort of starter at me, and i'll respond in kind! you can also reach me at lucylovespluto or via pms to this journal! i am also willing to write you an original starter if none of these work out and you don't feel like wildcarding me. just lmk! ]

[coronae]

Um...then you're an alien or a superhero??

[ is there another explanation ]

[digthefuzz]

[Well, those are some choices. Kurt scratches at his hair as he looks off to the side.]

I'm... kind of a mutant. But try to be... like... superhero-ish.

[coronae]

Do you have superpowers??? [ she

maybe missed how he suddenly appeared since she was more, you know, focused on the IMMEDIATE APPEARANCE ]

[digthefuzz]

Well... Yeah, I've got a few. Like... teleporting, wallcrawling? ...Stuff like that?

[coronae]

Can you teleport other people????

[digthefuzz]

Yeah! As a matter of fact, I can. Like, I dunno if I can do a whole group of people, but I've done like one person at a time in the past.

[coronae]

[ ...rayne brightens. ] Can you take me?

[ apparently. the frying pan incident is just being glossed over. rayne please. ]

[digthefuzz]

I... I could! [He says with a meek chuckle. Even if his nose definitely hasn't forgotten the frying pan incident...] ...If you're okay with it. [He adds hesitantly, unsure if she trusts him enough.]

[coronae]

Yes!! I'd love to! [ because Magic...it solves everything ]

[digthefuzz]

Okay then! [Some of the hesitance disappears from his smile.] We just have to be making contact, and then - then it can happen!

[coronae]

[ she INSTANTLY reaches out to take his hand to hold. hi kurt. ]

[digthefuzz]

[Hello?! Surprised and slightly flustered by how quickly she takes his hand, he offers a soft smile.]

Okay then! Hang on, cause here we go! [Bamf! With a puff of smoke that smells of brimstone, the two are teleported over to the nearest street corner!]

[coronae]

THAT. Was so! Cool! [ this is her reaction after a significant pause. the brimstone was less cool but overall? TELEPORTING IS SO COOL!!! ] I hope I get cool magic!! Can you fly with it?

[digthefuzz]

[He paused tensely as he awaited her reaction, training his eyes on her! At least she didn't look like she was getting sick from it. And then there she went with that infectious energy! Kurt laughs.]

Um, no, no flying. ...Well, like, I can teleport to higher places, but gravity still does it's thing!

[coronae]

Well, what if you teleport a bunch of little times in a row??

[digthefuzz]

Well, yeah, as long as I'm careful, it can kinda be like flying!

[coronae]

That's so cool!! Flying is the power I most want to get.

[ unfortunately, her superpower is Hair ]

[digthefuzz]

[Her hopes are just a hair out of place.]

Man, good luck with that! If I could trade, I'd take legit flying in a heartbeat! It sounds, like, the most fun!

[coronae]

If I do get it, I'll take you flying with me!

[digthefuzz]

Really? Thanks, I appreciate that! It'd be so awesome...! I just hope I'm not too heavy! [Although with the way she wielded that frying pan, he doesn't have too many doubts about her strength!]

[coronae]

It's okay!! I work out a little.

[ why tho ]

[digthefuzz]

Oh, well if you say so! [He says with a small laugh. Maybe she's an aspiring wrestler>] If the time comes, we'll see if you can bench press a blue fuzzball! [Kurt points a thumb to himself as he says that.]

[coronae]

I could try! [ she

she might fail ]

[digthefuzz]

[Kurt snorts.]

Yeah, just try your best! And I'll try to not put on pounds in the meantime!

[coronae]

Aw! I'm sure that won't be hard. I mean you...look fit?
