Town Square in the Park, Saturday Afternoon

[saddeserthermit]

Most of the information they had found was circumstantial, at best: rumors about what might have happened, strange reports that could mean anything about what caused this. But from it had arisen one potential path, the destruction of whatever anchored this place here - though whether it was an anchor that held their island tied to this, or an anchor that held this island tied to its doom, Obi-Wan couldn't say.

Regardless, it was time. He made his way to town square after spending some time urging people to come there. Just to make sure, he raised his voice. "May I have your attention?" he called.

And waited. A bit.

"I'm sorry if I am being presumptuous. My name is Obi-Wan Kenobi. I am... newly here. I, and several of our people, have spent some time researching the current state of the island." Yes. That. "We have identified two creatures that may be involved in powering our current circumstances. Therefore, we find it credible that removing these creatures may at the very least improve our circumstances some."

He couldn't make any promises, here.

"If you are willing to volunteer to take on a flying man vulnerable to electricity, and an easily-distractable... thing... out in town, please do report to me." Beat. "And Principal Zoe? I would like to speak with you as well."

He stepped away from the rock he'd stood on, straightened his robe, and waited.

[[ wait for the ocd up! ]]

"It's got three whole rooms," Ada laughed. "Little rooms, but still more'n enough space for a sleepover. I say we grab Dante an' Hya an' anyone else we want. Might get a little cozy if'n we get more'n six in there, but we'll fit."

And cozy didn't sound too bad right about now.

"More bodies will keep the cold weather away."

Just because Rivain didn't get as absurdly cold as here didn't mean they didn't have winter or ways to deal with it.

Ada's mouth twitched in a smile. "I'll keep you warm," she promised, playing with the ends of Isabela's hair. "Come on, I'll show you were it is, an' we'll see about finding a few more blankets an' see who wants to pile in with us tonight."

"That's why you're my favourite," Isabela said, nuzzling Ada's temple.

She understood how utterly unreasonable the weather here was.

Ada'd never even owned a winter jacket or boots before enrolling at Fandom. The weather was unreasonable even when they weren't trapped in an alternate-universe Fandom.

"Maybe we don't come out for th' rest of the week," she suggested, because yes, she'd seen you volunteering for Stupid Shit, Isabela. Ada wasn't above sitting on you in a Not Dirty way to keep the heroics at a minimum.

"That honestly sounds like the best way to cope with this place."

On the bright side she wasn't doing the Stupid Shit until the next day?
