Koa
Whole lotta oh fucks happening here, eh gang? Maybe we should have tried a good ol' "Hey Ever will you hold this?" - but then, where's the fun in that?
Like everyone else, Koa is now approaching a state of panic over the multiple mishaps occurring re: ring-gate. Warned by Pip's screech and Zavien's running, the young man has spun around in time to see the cloud wyrm unleash its prize. His brown eyes widening into saucers, he watches, helpless, as the jewelry descends through the air. Falling... falling...
And at the last minute not landing in the barrel of sludge.
Because Zavien's there, and while he's now covered in refuse, at least he's not going to have to swim in it. The ring bounces harmlessly from his back, landing on the ground with a cheerful plink! Unperturbed, the bauble begins to roll its way back into the Plaza and away from the agape conspirators. "Fuckfuckfuck!" Koa exclaims, scrambling to get out of the fountain and chase the sacred thing.
But it's Pipsqueak who swoops in, her svelte body swimming through the air in pursuit of the errant shiny thing. She snatches it up with a crow of success, chortling at her own brilliance where the humans have failed. It's all Koa can do to keep from slamming his head onto the edge of the fountain as relief and hysteria flood through his brain.
Glancing at Lena and Zavien, the Dragoon sucks in a breath. "Holy shit. Right. Okay. Um, Zavien, how about you take the barrel to waste disposal and like... find a new shirt? And, um, Ever?" Koa calls to the eagle, still trying to salvage this. "Can you hold onto that ring for Zav? I'd let Pip keep it, but she's a worse hoarder than any wyrm." Indeed, Everest will be hard pressed to convince Pipsqueak to part with her new treasure, even with her companion's mental pleading. His arms flail a little as he turns back to Lena, heart still thundering in his chest. "I guess, uh, let's finish scrubbing? And pray that nothing else goes wrong?"
Our comedy of errors continues!
- Zavien: go dispose of the slorp and get yourself cleaned up
- Everest: retrieve the ring from Pipsqueak. You may want to try a bribe.
- Lena and Koa: finish cleaning the fountain. This round will finish it off.
