Welcome back, users. Looks like we were able to bring you back online and tracked again...here's hoping the layers are settled now, but the readings are off the chart. We're doing our best to stabilize the city for December while we track some of the magical sources we're picking up. It may take us some time though, so please bear with us! We may be working through the holidays, too, if this keeps up. But it's okay. You opened the doors and new routes for us to check. Stay positive, users. December is a special time of the year. What's your favorite holiday tradition? You'd be surprised how thoughts shape things here. Please take care.

I think I like all the Christmas lights around town? They're really pretty, and it makes for a nice atmosphere when you're street performing at night.

Anyway, with everyone having the holidays in mind, I wanna announce that I'll be selling my food at the farmer's market again! I have the ability to enchant food so it can heal or temporarily boost your abilities like speed or strength. It's great for training, it tastes great, and they even sparkle so it'd be a pretty looking gift!

Here's my menu if you want to know what I offer. I'll be at the farmer's market Saturday and Sunday mornings, so please stop by!

Thanks!

hey Elli do you need any help at your stall?I can put some flyers around campus too if you have any!

[fiddlestick]

Haha, I'd love some help at the stall! It can get pretty busy some.

Though I don't have any flyers. Just business cards...

You are like a siren song with that chowder right there

I'll even get up early for some of that


If you need any heavy lifting or help getting set up let me know

[fiddlestick]

Haha, wow, that is high praise!

I wouldn't mind having help with heavy lifting. Would you take payment in chowder?

[jurai]

Ah, now you're talkin' my language

Payment in chowder is fine by me. It says it heals frostbite, too?

[fiddlestick]

Great! Be there at 7:30 then?

And it sure does. I've tested it myself.

[jurai]

7:30 on the dot!

That might come in handy. Winter means snow and snow means shoveling

0_0 Holy sweet mother of mercy, there is food...

WITH MAIGC!?

Do you have things that restore magic?!

[fiddlestick]

Haha, yep! With magic.

And well...the vegetable juice restores a little!

Though if you're looking for something more effective...well, I have a couple things? But they don't taste very good, fair warning.

[flametheif40]

Ummm...how bad are we talking about?

Because...I have a portable flamethrower to recharge my magic atm

[fiddlestick]

Oh...wow...that sounds dangerous.

Well, one is really bad coffee. Really bad, it's somehow watery and gritty and sludgey at the same time.

The other is Pepsi blue.

I'm not sure which is worse.

[flametheif40]

Well, for everyone one else yeah, Fire can't do a thing to me. I don't even get hot anymore

Ummm...I guess I can give Pepsi blue a shot?

That one doesn't sound too bad...will it restore a lot of magic?

buy his pancakes. they have Goro Akechi's seal of approval (pancake prince, by the way).

i think they might have a Christmas lights show again this year if you want to go?

best un

[fiddlestick]

Oh! I didn't know we had royalty in our home! I'm feel honored he approves!

Haha, that'd be fun. I think I missed last year's show because I was so busy helping with the winter festival.

thank you

[maskreant]

him being a food coma should tell you enough.

well, this is the year, Elliot. Christmas lights year.

[fiddlestick]

Haha, right. One of the few afflictions my food can't fix.

Great! I'm looking forward to it!

Anything else you wanna do this season?

[echoing_sutras]

hey u wanna do some busking together?

[fiddlestick]

Haha, sure! That'd be fun!

Have a location you like?

[echoing_sutras]

anywhere there's a lot of shopping goin' on is usually a good spot. we're both too young to busk around the bars and clubs, tho i guess nothin is stoppin us from trying

[fiddlestick]

Aha, actually I have a regular job playing at a club...but yeah, somewhere with shopping is probably a better idea.

How about the mall?

[blondferret]

How does your magic work? Like how do the things you make have magic in them?

[fiddlestick]

You know, you've asked me before and I still don't have an answer for you, sorry.

[blondferret]

It had been a few weeks since we've talked, you could have gotten a memory explaining it. I didn't think it would hurt to ask again.

Just trying to wrap my head around magic.

Concerning the lights in the city, it makes me thing how the Great Hall at Hogwarts is lit by floating candle sticks.

[fiddlestick]

Well, I haven't. If I ever do, you'd be the first to know. But I would't hold your breathe...my other self was a musician, so I can't see him holding much interest in magical theory.

Oh really? That sounds nice.
