EVENT: BLANKET FIC

[trainmasters]

Who: All the lovely Heroes!
When: Day 44, morning
Where: Around the train

[ It may have been only a few days, but did that heatwave feel like it lasted forever to anyone else? No? Either way, it's gone now. Bringing with it a blessed coolness. Actually wait, it's cold-- too cold! Worse yet, not even going into the train seems to really help. Fortunately, someone seems to have been kind enough to leave some nice, fuzzy blankets lying around. Too bad it doesn't seem to help much unless you share them with someone...

Either way, you're in luck because you've got some new teammates on the train! The notification appears cheerfully on everyone's Chains:

WELCOME NEW HEROES

Enjoy the cold...? ]

[[ NOTES: You're welcome to make team posts if you like, or intro directly into this mingle if you haven't already. Until next month's placements, the cold snap will persist-- along with the lovely blankets lying around. Enjoy! ]]

[ Is now a woof ]

Now we can try to hug like this too!

[featherbeaned]

[ WOWWWWWWW ]

Wow!

[ Time to sniff the woof form all over, too, sorry if she shoves her snout in his ears in the process ]

[malignstar]

[ Still laughing and squirming some ]

What are you doing?

[featherbeaned]

Gotta sniff!

[ SNIFFING IS IMPORTANT ]

[ But she does eventually back off some, with a happy wiggle and a bounce ]

What’s your name?

[malignstar]

Oh yeah? What do I smell like?

And it's Felix. How about you?

[featherbeaned]

Hm, hmm. Fire and bad eggs.

[ FLATTERING. ]

Dusk gave me Meridian.

[malignstar]

Bad eggs?

[featherbeaned]

[ Another sniff or two ]

Yyyyyes? Yes. Well! Hm, kind of. Like volcanoes and hot springs and bad eggs.

[malignstar]

That doesn't sound too appealing.

[featherbeaned]

Why not? It's not big or bad.

[malignstar]

I don't know. Smelling like bad eggs sounds like a cry for cologne help to me.

[featherbeaned]

[ Wrinkles her nose. ]

That stuff smells strong. [ And fake. It's weird. ]

[malignstar]

Humans like it though.
