SCAWWY 😱 lavi

[concoctive]

In Native American tradition, the butterfly weed is associated with love, transformation, and new beginnings. In the language of flowers, it represents optimism and joy. But, despite their beauty, they also have a surprisingly negative meaning symbolizing solitude and rejection. By giving butterfly weeds in a bouquet, they act as a warning telling the receiver to leave you alone. True to its name, Butterfly Weed is a magnet for butterflies. The plant's roots were traditionally used to treat various ailments, including respiratory issues, fevers, and even as a contraceptive.

Both.

[ he pulls out something wrapped in a strip in makeshift bandages, setting the box down as he does so that he can unwind it. once it's uncovered - as soon as he's sure no one else is around, as if the cult can pop out anywhere - he also opens the box.

1. A small wooden box, with runes engraved into its cover. Inside is a torn-off wing. Even bisected from its body, it flaps on occasion, charged with some kind of pure, holy energy.
2. A glass keepsake bottle, plugged up tight with a cork. Inside is a very large, fossilized millipede with an overabundance of eyes, unmoving but unsettling to look upon.

gives you the mod desc. ]

I've been holdin' onto 'em, but all four of us got to see the room these were in. Rondo said you guys had to make a deal for 'em - and if they're all magical in nature, like Pesti said these were, then maybe it's all somethin' we gotta collect and keep safe.

[THE WAY GETO JUST SAID "wing" and "millipede" AND NOTHING ABOUT HOW FREAKY THEY LOOKED.

in return, lavi flips open the lid so Alfyn can see the:

"inside, laid out in a plush fabric interior is a long, dried tongue. It is still a little squishy to the touch, and yet somehow still an unnaturally pastel-hued pink for how desiccated and bloodless it is."]

Ash's got a jar of teeth that has a creepy faerie inside. [don't ask him why... but he hmms as he thinks,]

I asked War about it, and they said the tongue looked like a component for a spell. Is that what Pesti meant by magical?

[ GETO YOU USELESS TEENAGER

except what the FUCK yours is worse, it's a goddamn TONGUE, YAYWON. ]

Oh, eurgh, gross. I don't like yours any more than I like the bug. The wing's fine, it kinda reminds me of holy magic back home, but this... [ he reaches into his bag and pulls out a small twig that probably came from an herb that he de-leafed, poking at the tongue a bit. ]

Maybe. It'd make sense, considerin' all the stuff we saw... scrolls, books, stuff like this. Wonder if us havin' 'em will keep the cult from bein' able to do their actual ritual..?

[I DO NOT CONTROL THE TONGUE]

If that's what it means, then I'll grab as many tongues as I can steal next time.

[HE'LL BECOME THE TONGUE GUY!!!!! not the other dgm tongue guy though]

Except a different group's probably gonna go this week... I wonder what they'll get. Hair? Eyeballs?

[concoctive]

[ CONTROL THE TONGUE???? ]

Nasty, but at least we know they're out there.

[ he... frowns, thinking of another group dealing with what the eight of them did. ]

At least we're prepared for it, now, 'cause we know it wasn't just a one-off.

[I DO NOT!!!!

he peeks over at alfyn...]

Totty mentioned that you're setting up a clinic at the theater.

[concoctive]

Mm, yeah - there's so much space goin' unused, even while I do sleep there... [ and camille came and went, mostly, before the whole dying and then reviving thing. ] There's still plenty of room.

Might as well put it to use.

[CAMILLE COMING BACK IS SO FUNNY]

It's a good idea. Yuu asked for a stretcher on Yuffie's request, so if you need to put someone at our place, then feel free. Might be easier for ya since we're the closest to the swamp.

[lavi's operating on the belief that people won't refuse swamp heals to be dramatic like he was though]
