Mingle Log #2

note: log is sfw but contains vague references to nsfw things!

---

With all the hustle and bustle occurring in High Rise Village, some of the locals will be persuading Otherworlders to spend some time in the Agrarian Enclave. The southern region of the island city-state boasts all manner of attractions.

Any trip to the Enclave tends to begin with a visit to the plant nursery and its adjacent apiary.

Telepin Apiary

The pollinators of the Enclave -- and they come in all forms -- produce the finest honey.

The Ambrosial Honey Collection of Magisteria contains varieties ranging from those with delicate floral notes to rich earthy drinks. Honey is added to teas and dishes at various small establishments all around the apiary. A favorite drink is called Ambrosial Bold-Gold. A person who consumes this drink will feel a sense of warmth and, likely, a desire to be more open and social, more likely to share their thoughts, feelings, and findings with fellow Otherworlders.

Those who drink large amounts may feel some inhibition loss and they may become more gregarious. They may also really vibe deeply with sunlight and nature. Otherworlders will be given to understand that natives consume this special tea almost like one would booze.

Drinking at the Telepin Apiary is the equivalent of day-drinking in the Enclave. It can prepare a person for the best leisurely stroll in the Community Gardens and the wonder of the Sky Orchards, or it can prime people for the various more adult-centric allures of the district...

After all, this was a land absolutely full of beings from fantasy races who were all kinds of beautiful and not exactly shy about the spring and summer thirst cycles.

Telepin Plant Nursery

It's a popular place to get a baby plant, and the plants here have a lot of personality.

They're about as sentient as the art installations. They don't require food like a pet would; they are, in fact, plants, but they also move about. Some have faces.

Many are kind of like... grass Tribbles: little tufty balls that run or roll about.

There are tomatoes and strawberries with faces, or those shaped like animals, such as strawberry mice.

MINGLE LOG

Otherworlders are encouraged to take a little break from the world: drink some honey tea, watch/adopt some grass Tribbles*, and engage with each other about all the weird shit y'all have seen.

[*could probably use proper names. would go gr8 with Musashi's or Libra's gardens, tho!]

☉ TELEPIN APIARY

[ After finding out the truth of their future from Emet-Selch, Azem needed some time alone. So they did the one thing they do best (aside from fucking and fighting); wander. They saw some of the sights, met new people, and found a gift for their dear friend (yes, is still a dear friend even after all of that). But before they find him and hand over the gift, one more stop is in order as the Apiary and Plant Nursery have caught their attention.

Never one to say no to whatever the locals are up to, Azem happily orders one of the drinks and sips it as they relax in the warm atmosphere of the Aipary. ]

This is divine. [ They say to no one in particular as they look down at their drink with a measure of surprise. It's not that they doubted it would taste good, but to taste it is another matter.

Once they've had a drink or two (however, let's be real, they don't need a drink to talk to others) they're happy to regale others with tales of their exploits from both here and back home. ]

☉ TELEPIN PLANT NURSERY

[ The Plant Nursery is quite fascinating. The creatures within remind them of some creations back home, however much more adorable. Azem finds themself wanting to adopt one but, oh, which one? They can be found hemming and hawing over which of the adorable vegetative critters they should take home. ]

Or maybe I should get one for Hades? [ They can be over heard musing to themself. ] Would he appreciate a small friend?

☉ WILDCARD

[ I'm down for whatever, throw it my way or hit me up on plurk @ rubberspaceducky or in PMs to plan something. ]

1. Vegetable(?) Raising

William spends time around the outskirts of the agricultural sector to take advantage of the vast space to train. When the place actually opens its doors to visitors, naturally he comes to take a look. While the vegetables initially give him pause, he's quickly charmed by their faces and their general manner.

He can be found sat cross-legged in the soil surrounded by a small group of them. One of the tomatoes has managed to get on to his shoulder and is now making a determined tilt for the top of his head.

William tries not to shake too much as he giggles. "Careful, you don't want to bruise yourself," he cautions with a smile.
