[Somewhere in the night, there is an elaborate text message waiting for the recipient.]

☆ Congratulations! ☆

You've been cordially invited to Spa LaQua, a special hot spring resort where you can soak all your troubles away! Get a spa treatment, have a massage, dine like a king! With all the trouble that's been happening lately, this is an invitation you just can't refuse.

May 20th, afternoon. Now don't be late!

♡ Sheryl

[Attached to this message is a picture of what the hot springs look like. Also directions to the place itself, which is somewhere in Tokyo.]

Davesprite,

I was informed that you are a musician? Would you be willing to perform for a potentially large group of people? I am organizing a gathering on the Sixth and I would like to provide musical entertainment of a wide variety.

Please inform me at your earliest convenience, thank you.

Sincerely,
Lady Sansa Stark

[redotiertwo]

wow i think this is the politest internet message ive ever gotten

yeah im a musician
i wasnt sure youd want someone playing the style of music i do since you were asking for bards
but if you want variety then im down
im pretty sure ive worked my tools of the trade out enough by now to perform for a crowd

[stonebird]

I would not be impolite since I am asking you a favor! (She would not be rude anyway most likely.)

I am eager to hear your music, actually. Not everyone comes from a land like mine and I have an open mind.

[redotiertwo]

you would be surprised how many people dont understand
that being impolite is a really great way to not get people to do what youre asking them to do

its probably going to sound pretty different to what youre used to
but its the kind of thing that gets people moving
so it should get some good dance happening

There are cookies.

[redotiertwo]

yes
i can confirm cookies exist
we are blessed to be in this plane of existence where cookies grace us with their transcendent presence
and we can fucking surround ourselves with their goodness as all cookies are created equal
except raisin cookies
fuck those

anyway what about there being cookies

[kokuyoyo]

[what the fuck, davesprite]

These don't have raisins. They have icing.

[Today, a random package has been left at the temple to Davesprite's god. It's of a moderate size, with a note on top that says Davesprite.]

[Inside is a porcelain vase. There's nothing else, besides bubble wrap.]

[redotiertwo]

[Davesprite finds it on the way back in from a brief trip on the Near Shore, and he opens it before guessing the origin and sending a text.]

see
the vase is still here
its fine

[kokuyoyo]

Pics or it didn't happen.

Good morning, Davesprite.

I wanted to let you know that my temple has moved - it's at the attached address now.

I'm baking cookies at the moment, and there may be some left over if you drop by today.

[After all, he has to drop cookies at his new neighbors' houses. Some of them will appreciate it, some of them definitely won't, all of them will be effectively warned about their new neighbor thereby....]

[redotiertwo]

you guys really like your cookie bribes over there huh

what kind of cookies are they

[Look, just because he's already been cookie bribed by Chikusa once before doesn't mean he's going to turn it down.]

[reformedsinner]

Did someone else already offer them?

Almond.

[He may have missed the cookie sharing due to a slight case of death.]

backdated to Oct 5 because my ass forgot

[kokuyoyo]

you know music right

[Attached is a picture taken from Chikusa's phone of a piece of paper. ]

I looked through the library after bishamons thing and this was on its own. its weird.

[redotiertwo]

yeah
its a lyric sheet
must be for something a cappella
so good luck with that

[kokuyoyo]

cappella what

[The day after the Capypa Land trip, Davesprite will find a package at his doorstep, neatly wrapped, and containing a bizarre knitted... thing. It is definitely Capypa themed, bright sky blue, made of several knit straps braided together, and possibly meant to be a scarf, or a cowl, or a sweater for a spider crab.

The included note says, I don't know what it is either. Please enjoy. - Hakkai]

[redotiertwo]

[That sure is an object that probably serves some kind of purpose.

Davesprite's just going to put it in a small pride-of-place location on his shelf to confuse onlookers.]

December 12th

[kokuyoyo]

[Sometime that day, Davesprite will find an image file in his inbox.]

[redotiertwo]

wow
im gonna need to print this and put it on my wall
no apology i ever get from now on is going to stack up against this majesty

choice fursona by the way

[kokuyoyo]

[So he. he did a thing. it was successful. Good...???]

February 16

[kokuyoyo]

[Davesprite will get the attached photo, plus some text.]

hakkai lost a fight with a bird
lol

[redotiertwo]

i think youll find the official register of fighting styles does not in fact count photography as a fight
sorry to inform you

[He might be being intentionally obtuse about the scratches.]

[kokuyoyo]

i was busy being responsible
i missed the fight itself
does bird testimony count
