[Well. What a flood of newcomers. Or... "newcomers". Something seemed amiss.

Moro's tracks are all around the forest, and most of them are fresh. There's some fresh kills, or at least the freshly eaten remnants of them. There's some territorial markings here and there. All in all, it's a very unfriendly welcome.]


((OOC: HELLO! Yosie is planning on having Gaston from Beauty and the Beast go on a hunt for Moro. If you're interested in participating, then go look at his information! If you just wanna bother Moro, then you are also free to do just that.))

[ Hearing his name, Ryoji stops and looks around. And when sees the gigantic wolf, he stares for a moment or two because she is a whole lot bigger than any dog he's met before. But he smiles, even if the smile is a little confused. ]

Hello! [ Head tilt. ] Have we... met before?

[biteoffherhead]

...You were here, once before.

[death_awaits_you]

I was? [ He thinks about it, trying to remember. No one's told him that he was in Luceti before, after all, so he's sure that if he was, he should be able to remember somehow. Except that... nothing comes. ] I'm sorry... I don't -- remember.

[biteoffherhead]

...It is fine.

[A sentimental smile.]

I am Moro. Guardian god of the forests.

[death_awaits_you]

Pleased to meet you! ... again? [ Despite the confusion, he smiles brightly up at her. ]

Are you guarding this forest, then?

[biteoffherhead]

With my life.

[death_awaits_you]

I'm sure this forest is very safe, then.

Do you mind if I keep looking around it a little more? It seems so... peaceful, here.

[ ... somehow. Despite the carcasses of prey and the blood. Or maybe because of them? ]

[biteoffherhead]

I will accompany you.

[And PROTECT YOU good Moro best guard dog.]

[death_awaits_you]

It would be my pleasure to walk with you. [ He laughs. ] Maybe you can show me the most beautiful places! It'll be like a date. [ Because obviously Moro is date material. ]

[biteoffherhead]

A date?

the blinking in that icon gets me every time.

[death_awaits_you]

Yeah! We're exploring someplace nice together.

WATCHING YOU

[biteoffherhead]

...Come with me.

[She'll ~SHOW YOU THE WORLD~ okay no she'll just show off some of the prettier place in the forest.]

[death_awaits_you]

Okay!

[ Aww, no musical number? No shining, shimmering splendid?

Well, even without it, Ryoji happily follows along, eager to see more of Moro's forest. She's such a nice wolf goddess. He doesn't get why anyone would ever be scared of her and want to form a mob! ]

[biteoffherhead]

[Deeper in the forest they go, then! She stops at one of the lakes, after a while, looking at it.]

...Around this season, a year ago, I first met you.

[death_awaits_you]

[ Ryoji looks out at the lake, too. The choppy water glints in the weak winter sunlight that peaks between clouds, but it doesn't last long. It's a somewhat gloomy day that's been peppered with snow flurries, after all. Of course, Ryoji still thinks it's very pretty.

But his brought out of his thoughts by Moro's voice, and he looks at her. ]

You did?

[biteoffherhead]

...Yes. The Malnosso were toying with us, at the time. We were like twitterpated pups.

((ooc: though if you want to just give this 4th wall thread a miss, since everyone'll forget and they'll apparently be sharing a fruit next week anyway, I understand. It got buried in my emails. ))

Twitterpated? [ Have a look of confusion! Ryoji doesn't understand that word. ]

What did they do to us?
