A ⦿ Soaking in Your Arrival
    KERPLUNK, SPLASH!

    Regardless of what you were in the middle of, you and your familiar have been magically pulled into the world of Avalon just above the Bay's waters. After a brief plunge into the Bay, the rush of water filling your ears and soaking up into every creak and crevice of your body, you may need to cough to clear your airways when you rise above the surface. It's still chilly, but not enough that you can't manage on your own. The Lady of the Lake is swimming around under the water, but seems to be focusing on coordinating a band of mossatees to help rescue any wayward new arrivals. Mossatees are a special Avalonian manatee that is green in color and has what appears to be a patches of grass or other short plant life growing on its back. While some are fully green, many sport blooming flowers or fairy circles of mushrooms.

    If anyone tries to ask the Lady of the Lake for directions, she will direct you to Archimedes at the Rent-a-Ride. Those with animal magic may get their info from the manatees, though may notice that they're really overly friendly and have zero concept of personal boundaries. Everyone may notice they have no concept of personal space, as they will happily run right into someone's belly for a snoot squishing. The shores themselves are littered with new arrivals complaining their way up a staircase carved into the walls of the White Cliffs. There is no railing, so be careful, but if you do fall, be prepared for a mysterious sand hand to reach out of the side of the cliffs to catch you. The hand will pat you atop the head twice before retreating back into the wall. This is the Cliff Beast; despite the name, he is quite friendly.

    *Reminder: Your character's familiar may or may not be with your character in their initial plunge. If the familiar isn't partial to water, it may meet your character on the beach or sit atop their head while they swim. Or if they are, they might splash about and swim alongside your character. Familiars have different personalities and body specs and we leave those up to the players.


B ⦿ The Caravan to Camelot
    Once everyone is wrangled up to the top of the White Cliffs, the handsome owner of the Rent-a-Ride, Archimedes, will distribute smart phones, a pair of earbuds, and animal-themed ponchos and tell them to "Check the Shit Box." The "Shit Box" refers to wardrobe more formally known as the Wardrobe of Finding, a hammerspace-like wardrobe that opens to each person's items and pets when the person touches the handle. It was recently enchanted by Merlin to prevent people from having to fish their waterlogged possessions and pets out of the water with them. From there, Archimedes directs everyone to settle in groups into modernized carriages pulled by horses and gives them a basic explanation of why and how they've been brought to Avalon: The rest of the universe is frozen in time and your character has been brought here by a familiar that was able to bond with them. They'll have to learn magic to help save their own world from destruction, but first they've got to get them to Camelot. It is here that you have the first opportunity to decide who they will be in their new home. You'll have about an hour to wander around here, meet and greet, and pet the horses before it's time to go.

    These carriages use fae technology that combats weight, so your character will be able to get in regardless of whether they're light as a feather or weigh two tons. The carts have air conditioning when it's hot, heating when it's cold, and a mystical shield to protect from bugs. There is also a mini-bar that pops out of the console with nip bottles. Characters can use their smartphones to connect to Camelot's internet service, [community profile] avalononline (AOL), to chat with other characters, watch dumb videos, learn about the world, contact Camelot Support (they'll answer any questions they can for you, from how to use a smart phone to where to find quests and resources to learn more about your magic). Be careful if you decide to use your phones while in the caravan-- if you don't use those earbuds and start forcing everyone to listen to your nonsense, Archimedes may make you walk. Which given the fact that it's pouring down rain in April? Not ideal. You were only given ponchos, not rain boots.


C ⦿ The Red Spring
    The journey from the White Cliffs to the City of Camelot is a long one, and the first evening you arrive you'll end up spending at the Red Spring, a booming resort town. Because of the volume of new arrivals and vacationers, inn rooms are assigned two-to-a-room. The rooms have two twin beds, a bathroom, a mini-fridge and microwave, and a TV equipped with a couple of entertaining video games and a few free movies.

    Unfortunately, due to a bee infestation and massive amounts of rain, the hot springs of the Red Springs are not available this month! Instead, an underground salt cave is offered as a way to relax and unwind. Gather around in the rejuvenating, dimly lit caves and breathe in the relaxing effects of salt crystals. Feel the sand between your toes, or if you don't like sand, try one of the many pools with tiny garra rufa for a fish pedicure. Or, lie down in a recliner and stare up at the "stars"-- magic sparkles in the ceiling that move to spell out single-word concepts you may be experiencing. (Maybe you're relaxed? You might get something like "Chill." Find your relaxation buddy hot? Just be careful to look away before the stars spell "Thirsty" to the whole room.)

    The springs are also home to a large training grounds just outside town limits, where there are teachers who will teach basic magic safety and help you discover what kind of magic you have together with other new arrivals. Try target practice, obstacle courses, meditation circles, and other ways to try to figure out just what you can do... if you didn't already have an accidental discovery on the ride there.



As it turns out, a mythical land that's been around for a few centuries has a few things in common with many modern worlds. It's got the internet, and games have evolved a little bit past hoop trundling and draughts. April, being the traditional month of mirth and games and lots of rain making it hard to have fun outdoors, is the time for Camelot City Gaming Convention, affectionately shortened to CameCon. Come into the large convention center located in the south part of town, get dry, and check out some of the awesome things to do.

A ⦿ Couchless Co-Op
    Without the massive audiences required to really run MMORPGs, Avalon is much more a fan of couch co-op style gaming. Though most games are available on mobile devices throughout Avalon when they are released, there's nothing quite like coming to CameCon to utilize the gaming stages for everyone's favorite fighting games. Multiple players at a time can plug in their phones and connect their accounts to a light magic-based illusion stage (powered by multiple light mages at a time, once a year only!) roughly the size of a basketball court. Fighting games can be played tournament-style on the phone next to your opponent for some awesome trash talk during your battle. Race through space with this year's popular NASTAR Racing Game (National Association for Space Travel Auto Racing) game and fight off space pirates in an epic Mario Kart-esque racing and item battle adventure with your choice of star ship.

    Or plug your phone into the stage podium and get away from the humdrum fantasy life by joining in a live-movement game that combines synchronous kinetic and light magic. Move your body in the vortex illusion of your favorite rhythm dance game with a buddy! Or maybe you're more into the free-style gaming of Grand Theft Automation with both friends and strangers-- step onto the illusionary stage itself to explore crawling cityscapes and live the life of crime you always dreamed of... at least the cops won't really arrest you if you do it here. Just make sure if you use magic you remember you're on a stage and don't accidentally send some flying off at a poor convention go-er just past the illusion stage.


B ⦿ Arthurian RP in your Arthurian RP
    None can forget one of the most important of game types: the roleplaying game. There's a huge historical set game going on right now where characters can LARP as their favorite Knight of the Round Table. There may be a couple of arguments if two Lancelots end up in the same game, but don't worry, there's a fair way of determining who gets the part for this game if you don't want to wait for the next storyline: rock-paper-scissors-magic. Instead of the traditional version of RPS, you shake your fists and open up to whatever hand-held spell you can make with your particular brand of magic. If it's something that can overcome the other kind in less than three seconds, you're the winner. (And yes, even healers can play-- some protective magic to block a dark magic pain curse is definitely going to win out, for example!)

    Either way, once your role is decided, put your acting skills to the test! ...and if you don't have any, well, they have costumes that will help you get into the mood with a little dress-up and props that will magically give you sword skills... though only while using the dull-edged plastic props. Or you can just sit on the sidelines and have a picnic on the concrete floor of the center with a potential new pal and watch other people play-- there's a lovely little buffet table with pastries, coffee, and juice in the corner.


C ⦿ It Figures...
    A convention isn't a convention without a little shopping. Come check out what cool games are upcoming in the exhibit hall, buy figurines of your favorite game characters (or.. new ones you've never heard of since this is a new world, but are still cute and/or kick-ass), and most importantly, check out the cool magic you can apply to them. A spell available for purchase in the convention hall that's popular this year is Recipe: Figure Anima, which makes your figures move in place and say popular lines as if they're an actual, miniature version of the character. It's recommended you practice while you're in the convention hall though so figure experts can help if things go.. awry. People have been known to have their own emotions influence the spell, and sometimes toys have started taking on the attitude of the caster. There's nothing quite as tragic as your favorite angelic game character telling you they're gonna kick your ass because you were in a fighting mood. So OOC. Maybe you can find someone who's a little better at magic to fix the problem?

    Of course, when the rain breaks through and floods the exhibition room, there's a lot of mass hysteria as people scream and climb up onto tables, trying to protect their merch above all else. Hurry, help someone else up onto your table before their ent dakimakura they just purchased gets wet! Only you can save the gamers from water! ..Or that's what you thought, until a second later the electricity goes out and you're left in a total electricity blackout in the convention hall. It may be a good idea to use some magic to try to light the way and find a way out of the flooded hall...






A ⦿ Keep Your Vines to Yourselves
    With magic blossoming left and right because of the bountiful spring equinox rituals, things have been getting a little stranger around the Broceliande. Though it's always been known for being a little odd, there is an overgrowth of prehensile, very friendly vines populating the forest now. The vines seem to have minds of their own, sometimes grabbing people, pulling them up into trees, or generally wrapping around them as if trying to get a warm hug. Ultimately, they seem relatively harmless.. except when you can't get down from them.

    Hopefully, you've got some kind of destructive magic that can help you fight off the overly friendly vines as you head into the forest to investigate the strange reports citizens have been making of their friends and family disappearing in the generally friendly, if odd forest when they've gone to fetch herbs or other supplies, gone on walks, or who knows what else from the forest. It seems like the best way to get the vines to let go without magic is to tickle the person the vines have captured, so you really better hope you're ticklish... and there's someone willing to really go in on it. It takes a lot of laughter to get these vines to leave you alone!


B ⦿ Selfies with Selkies
    Those who continue on with their investigation after avoiding or escaping the vines will find a very, very large flower that seems to have taken route in a sink hole in the middle of the forest. Hundreds of vines seem to be coming from it, and it seems like this flower may be the source of all of the vines throughout the forest. It won't attack unless you attack it first and it seems to almost immediately regrow any vines that are destroyed. If the flower itself is attacked, it will rise up and attempt to eat your character with thousands of tiny shark-like teeth that lie where the pollen of its flower should be. Those who try to fight will find it seems virtually unkillable and immovable. It is neither plant nor animal and seems to have a thousand minds and souls held within it that somehow feel incomplete, so it's largely incommunicable even with cognitive or death magic. It's definitely a strange find, and it could be easy enough to assume the missing people tried aggression as their first tactic and got gobbled up...

    Take a trip up to the Archivist will lead them to find a book that includes information on the species: The Cereus de Anima. This giant flower rapidly grows when a seed from the Land of Rot transfers via someone's clothing to an appropriate forest environment and is known to absorb a piece of a person's essence from anyone it touches with its vines. People often seem to go missing for a short period of time when one of these appears, then come back behaving a little differently but ultimately don't seem to be in distress. No one is quite sure what the cause of this is. There doesn't seem to be any record of there being lasting damage, however questionable the plant is... The Archivist, upon seeing you researching the plant, says that he's heard some of the lake's residents just off of the Silent Shore have some experience with one. He hands you a couple baskets of some specially anti-rust enchanted parts and tells you he was supposed to deliver them to a Selkie man living in the lake for a project he's working on. You and a partner can make the delivery and ask your questions from him.

    The Selkie isn't going to be particularly friendly to fellow men, not trusting human men farther than he can throw them, but will decidedly try to seduce women as Selkie men are known to be extremely handsome and flirtatious with human women. Non-humans he will be neutral toward. It's best to go in pairs so you don't end up on a whirlwind candlelit beach picnic with a shirtless selkie in exchange for information about how to uproot a Cereus de Anima. (At the very least, the selkie will want you to take a selfie with him before you leave so that you have something to remember him by, and you'll always be welcome back if you change your mind.) Regardless of how much of a challenge it is for you to get to that point, as long as he gets the delivery from the Archivist, he'll eventually tell you and your traveling partner about how he heard that there used to be a village at the edge of the Dusklight Woods that was overrun with one of them, and that there's only one survivor who moved to in a cottage on the other side of the Pure of Heart Bridge.. Those familiar, yes, it is the old man that Morganna tried to kill and save in a quest a couple of months ago! Time to travel all the way back to the Pure of Heart bridge and make your way over to the cottage and talk to the man and it sure seems like this quest is long and tedious and you may be wondering if someone will have noticed you're gone...


C ⦿ The Answer is No
    Back in Camelot City, it seems that anyone who's been touched by the vines has been replaced by a doppelganger in their lives. They're just barely off from the original- they have all the memories, but may be slightly more skilled at things they didn't used to be, or may seem to make less ethical choices than they might otherwise. There's just something slightly off. But when people start using AOL to contact their friends and let them know they've been gone.. well, it may seem like the jig is up, or at least in question.

    Those who find out they've been replaced may want to return to Camelot quickly to try to reclaim their lives. Doppelgangers will attempt to kill their original if they come into contact with them when they aren't around other people, so you may need to flee for your life if you haven't gotten good enough at magic to defend yourself yet. Around other people, the doppelgangers will do their best to try to prove themselves the real person and since they were made from the original, will have the same memories as the original character so asking questions that "only ___ would know" may not work. Eventually it will come out that the doppelgangers have occasionally wriggling vines instead of spines underneath their clothing, if you're willing to check that to see who's real, but that won't be common knowledge.

    What can be found out from the old man at the Pure of Heart bridge if you choose to leave your doppelganger alone is that Cereus de anima doppelgangers can only live for a month without killing their original and absorbing the rest of their essence. However, if the original plant isn't taken care of with a special venom you can only obtain from certain creatures in the Forest of the Fisher King, the problem will just keep happening over and over until the city is overrun and becomes nothing but a breeding ground for the flower and its replicas.




MOD NOTES:
• All test drive prompts are open to anyone in the game at any time to create your own logs with, but this post should have top-levels by potential new characters only. Current characters may reply to any threads, but should not top-level comment on this post.
• If your application is accepted, you may accept TDM threads as game canon as long as both players consent. Characters may begin threading as soon as their journal is accepted to the communities.
• You can have any animal-style poncho you want! They are themed, not made from actual animals. No animals have been harmed in the making of these ponchos!!
• TIMELINE: The resolution to the third prompt will be in April's event! The first two prompt sets will be during the first week of the month. The doppelganger problem and obnoxious traveling and research will be occurring for the second and third weeks of the month.
• People with green magic may be able to fill something off about the doppelgangers, but may not be able to identify what it is right away. Blood mages will be able to feel that their blood feels the same as the original as they are essentially copies. Cognitive people will be able to use their magic normally except for hypnotic suggestion- the doppelgangers are immune to it, so while you may be able to find other ways to out them, hypnotizing people to tell the truth won't work this time. Doppelgangers are made from the essence of the person, so they will be able to access their phones and accounts. Note that the Cereus de Anima and doppelgangers are not fairies and cannot be contracted with. If a Death Mage attempts to possess a doppelganger, it will technically come in contact with the doppelganger's vine and may end up with more than one doppelganger depending on how many times they try it. Siphon magic can be used to destroy a doppelganger easily, however, the essence that was stolen from the original's soul may be destroyed in the process so it is not recommended as the original may start to feel as though they are no longer a whole person.
• If nothing here tickles your fancy, try one of this month's Quests for your TDM prompt.
• The first "Arrival" prompts are present on every TDM, but contain seasonal tweaks for flavor. All other prompts will change monthly. Make sure to read the Red Spring section on this month's even if you're normally familiar-- the springs are closed this month, check out the alternate prompts!
• Questions about this TDM's content? Comment here! If you have a question about the game at-large, please head over to the FAQ.

Wh-wh-whoa!!

[Before he even knows what's happened, he's scooped up and brought right outside with the remaining congoers! It's intense, as he watches the pursuing water and the narrow, daring escape.]

You just had to have the last big heroic moment...! [He's grateful to him, sure! But also jealous.]
doctorintern: (pic#14718721)

[personal profile] doctorintern 2021-04-08 01:00 am (UTC)(link)
[ After he’s sure everyone is safely outside, Gizmoduck wobbles a little on his wheel, the adrenaline quickly fading and his breathing a bit heavy. ]

Just...making sure everyone got out safely...

...‘scuse me...

[ Just gonna try to slowly wheel himself through the crowd - who are now clamoring to try to talk to him or get his picture.

And once he’s found a quiet spot he’s just gonna collapse for a bit kthx. ]
flapsin: (ugh gizmoduck)

[personal profile] flapsin 2021-04-08 02:06 am (UTC)(link)
[Darkwing then takes a moment to sort things out with the congoers and hand them their items... while they mostly ask him questions about Gizmoduck and if he could hook them up with them. With a defeated sigh, Darkwing slips away and looks around for any sign of Gizmoduck. Can he find him...?]
doctorintern: (pic#14715701)

[personal profile] doctorintern 2021-04-08 02:12 am (UTC)(link)
[By the time DW passed merchandise back to vendors and managed to slip away, Fenton had caught his breathe and deactivated the Gizmosuit. He’s stuffing it back in his bag when the other hero comes across him, causing him to jump. ]

D-Darkwing...!
flapsin: (glad)

[personal profile] flapsin 2021-04-08 02:24 am (UTC)(link)
[Darkwing perks up once he sees his buddy! He doesn't even pay any mind to Fenton's bag.]

Fenton! Hey there buddy! Oh, are you a sight for sore eyes. I've been meaning to find you! You just missed some wild stuff, too.
doctorintern: (pic#14715642)

[personal profile] doctorintern 2021-04-08 02:45 am (UTC)(link)
Y-Yeah...! I mean, I was inside, actually. [ That’s why his clothes are wet. That’s all. ] I was with most of the people when you were lighting the way. So uh...thanks for that. You really saved us.

[ He quickly zips up his bag and jumps up to stand. But he hasn’t completely recovered after using so much magic, so he’s feeling a little dizzy and staggers a bit on his feet. ]
flapsin: (right back atya)

[personal profile] flapsin 2021-04-08 03:40 am (UTC)(link)
Oh wow. I didn't even see you in there! [But it was very crowded, and then the lights were out. He could have very easily missed Fenton in the chaos. He does smile at getting some credit from Fenton - good old dependable Fenton! Drake knows he could count on him.]

And, but, uh, no problem! You know, all in a day's work for a crimefighter. [He does reluctantly adds.] ...Gizmoduck helped too, but I'm sure you noticed that. He's pretty hard to miss, after all! And I'm sure he'll dump some more work on you if he hasn't already.
doctorintern: (pic#14715685)

[personal profile] doctorintern 2021-04-08 03:45 am (UTC)(link)
H-Heh, yeah, y’know...it was a pretty big crowd, and you had a lot on your plate.

But yeah, I know Gizmoduck’s here. I’m already working on trying to fix up the suit. Some of the gadgets aren’t functioning, so we’re looking to see if we can modify them somehow.
flapsin: (soooo)

[personal profile] flapsin 2021-04-08 04:04 am (UTC)(link)
Right, you know how it is. Justice's plate tends to be a full-course meal! [He brags, as he continues to assure himself about missing Fenton. And looks less amused as they talk about Gizmoduck.]

Of course, he already has you working on stuff. Remember, don't let that swiss army swan push you too hard!
doctorintern: (pic#14715673)

[personal profile] doctorintern 2021-04-08 05:18 am (UTC)(link)
[ He laughs nervously, rubbing the back of his neck. ] Y-Yeah, I know...It's not so bad, though! Actually, working on the suit gives me the chance to practice one of my magic abilities!
flapsin: (fanboying)

[personal profile] flapsin 2021-04-08 10:26 am (UTC)(link)
Ooooh! [Now he sounds excited!] Right, everyone gets magic in this world! So, whatcha got?!
doctorintern: (pic#14715716)

[personal profile] doctorintern 2021-04-08 04:01 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, I actually have two different kinds? When I first arrived, I received Elemental magic...like, uh, Gizmoduck, but it's actually pretty common for people to have the same type of magic! [ It's totally normal and NOT WEIRD ] But then there was an event where everyone received a second type of magic? My second one is Technomancy!

[ Which he's super excited about, because interfacing with different technology? Heck yes. ]
flapsin: (applause)

[personal profile] flapsin 2021-04-08 07:20 pm (UTC)(link)
Whoa, way to go buddy! [He cheers him on supportively! And chuckles smugly.] With powers like that, who even needs Gizmoduck? You could give that guy a run for his money if you wanted!

So technomancy - that's... is that like bringing technology to life? Or controlling it? Kinda reminds me of one of Megavolt's abilities, but y'know, that has its limitations since the machines have to be running on electricity, and there seems to be a limit to how many he can control at a time...

[He might get lost in nerdy rambling a bit there!]
doctorintern: (pic#14718815)

[personal profile] doctorintern 2021-04-08 07:43 pm (UTC)(link)
[ He clears his throat, pointedly ignoring both the Gizmoduck and Darkwing Duck show points. ]

Yes, technomancy is pretty much controlling and communicating with technology. [ Reaching into his pocket, he pulls out his phone. ] Watch this.

[ He holds the phone flat in his hand, screen side up, and for a moment it doesn't seem to do anything. But then suddenly it lights up, and starts going through the motions of making a call, all without Fenton touching the screen.

And a moment later, Darkwing will hear his own phone start ringing. ]
flapsin: (right back atya)

[personal profile] flapsin 2021-04-08 09:22 pm (UTC)(link)
[Fenton has learned the ways of navigating a conversation with Drake!

Silenced by the clearing of the throat before he can deep dive further into Megavolt lore, Darkwing then watches with bated breath as Fenton explains and demonstrates its powers! He sees the screen as the phone starts to make a call.]


Wow, talk about phones that practically read your mind...! [He does hear his own phone ringing! ...And he picks it up without looking at it.]

Hey, can you call me back later? I'm kinda in the middle of... [He pauses, as he realizes that he hears his voice coming out of Fenton's phone at the same time.] ...Oh. [Then he goes more sheepishly.] How's it going, bud? This is awesome!
doctorintern: (pic#14715657)

[personal profile] doctorintern 2021-04-08 09:46 pm (UTC)(link)
[ With a grin he disconnects the call and puts his phone away. ]

Right? And this world has all sorts of magic-based technology, which we'll get to learn how to use it! Just think of all the things we might be able to build!

[ ...and learning the magic too. There is also that. ]
flapsin: (fanboying)

[personal profile] flapsin 2021-04-09 12:56 am (UTC)(link)
Ooh hoo hoo! Now that sounds exciting! We could work on a whole new Darkwing Duck crimefighting lair here...!

[He then realizes he still has his phone pressed against his ear as if he's talking to Fenton over the phone while he's right there, and he awkwardly pockets his phone. And also realizes he might be putting a lot on his shoulders! So he awkwardly adds-]

I mean, if you're up for it, and when you have time!
doctorintern: (pic#14715669)

[personal profile] doctorintern 2021-04-09 07:33 am (UTC)(link)
Honestly, I wouldn't mind! [ Like he said, he's just excited to learn about the magical tech and get to build things with it. ] Although I'm not sure how, um...crucial a superhero is around here? Not only are there King Arthur's knights, but everyone that's brought here has magic.

...although I guess there are still people who cause trouble too. Plus there are quests, so it isn't like we're not doing anything.

[ Sorry, now Fenton's the one who's rambling. ]
flapsin: (cape flapping)

[personal profile] flapsin 2021-04-09 11:36 am (UTC)(link)
[Darkwing doesn't seem very deterred by that. After all, St. Canard wasn't exactly jumping with crime when he initially set up base there.]

Magic that can end up in the hands of good and evil. The malevolence of mystical mayhem and mischief! There's always a job to be done for champions of justice. After all, Gizmoduck and I just took on a heroic ordeal! ...Even if it wasn't a supervillain situation, persay.

[A beat.]

I might not need all the works like back home. But I'm not about to hang up the cape! Not when there's still more work that can be done! [And when he doesn't know what else to do with his life.] And a whole new world to explore...
doctorintern: (pic#14715657)

[personal profile] doctorintern 2021-04-09 09:18 pm (UTC)(link)
[ With a grin, Fenton nods and holds out a hand. ] Well, count me in! I'm hoping to set up a lab of my own sometime, so I definitely wouldn't mind working on stuff for you too.
flapsin: (optimistic)

[personal profile] flapsin 2021-04-09 10:18 pm (UTC)(link)
Great! [He'll give him a strong handshake.] By all means! Focus on your lab and getting yourself set up first. I'll take time to figure out what I'd need in my lair here anyway. In the meantime, I'll just 'wing' it!
doctorintern: (pic#14715683)

[personal profile] doctorintern 2021-04-09 10:24 pm (UTC)(link)
Sounds good!

[ He holds the handshake for a moment longer, but as he lets his hand drops he hesitates a bit, rubbing the back of his neck. ]

...There's just...one more thing.
flapsin: (adjusting hat)

[personal profile] flapsin 2021-04-09 10:39 pm (UTC)(link)
[He asks uncertainly.]

What's up?
doctorintern: (pic#14715682)

[personal profile] doctorintern 2021-04-09 10:50 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, um... [ The thoughts race through his mind as he debates with himself; on the one hand, it would be easier for them to work together without the Gizmoduck secret making things complicated. On the other, he isn't sure how Drake will feel about him afterwards.

But considering that he's bound to find out anyway, considering there's only three of them from home here, he feels it's better that the other hero finds out from him directly. ]


See, the thing is...as I'm sure you've noticed, there...isn't anyone else from back home here. This world is mostly populated by humans. Right now, there's only three of us, uh...I don't know, I guess humans would call us "duck people"?
