Terre Haute Expedition: Paradisa Town

[save_the_souls]

[After a long few days of traveling, the expedition team has reached past it's halfway point! And as such, they decide to make rest at a place that had once been the target of a previous expedition:]


Paradisa Town
Note: Talking Animal People and Actually Happy Once-ler Not Included

[A small cutesy village that once served as a world change location, it has now been abandoned of all it's previous residents. Though it's condition hardly looks like a place that hasn't been lived in for years- instead it has the condition that everyone just stepped out for awhile. There are more than enough small houses to fit everyone, so it's a nice break from sleeping on the ground (for some anyway). It's also a good place to stock up if you're one of those explorers that forgot things such as food and spare clothing. That is, if you don't mind peaches and fish and really gaudy clothing.]

[Relax, Explore, Pig out on Peaches - the evening is yours to do as you please.]

[Tsuna notices the toddler, and...

...

Why the heck is there a toddler on the expedition?!]

W-woah! Be careful!

[He reaches forward to pull her away from the fountain. WHY AREN'T THERE ANY ADULTS AROUND?]

[wilder]

[Pretty much yep!]

Haha...found one with cockroaches?

[not_mafia]

They are really small, aren't they? ... but, maybe they're like Paradisa? Bigger on the inside?

[not_mafia]

Y-yeah. I think I'll just stick to the tents.

[save_the_souls]

I will!

And just careful! During the world change, some people would feel an overwhelming urge to pun when they caught fish.

[save_the_souls]

I'm not sure, really. [A shrug; who knows what's with Paradisa]

But it should be all right for tonight! Nothing that I know of is in the area anymore

[encryptedlock]

[York just laughs.]

I haven't yet, but I'll try to be careful. I don't want anybody accidentally stabbing me out of frustration with silly puns.

[cyan_maid]

Because I want to!

[She is approaching! What do?]

[save_the_souls]

...Would someone really do that?

[Because you never know with paradisians. You never. know.]

[Lloyd tries to dodge, but he is grazed with the wave.

Fuck this.

He dives and goes straight for Zelos, trying to yank him under.]

[wilder]

[he chuckles]

Not all of them have roaches. Just a few here and there.

[wolfchild]

I think so. Nymeria ate a lot and she's fine. She even ate the second stomach too. Snatched it right out of Grey Wind's mouth.

[wilder]

[And it is very effective! He is yanked under with a bunch of flailing and splashing!]

[You can probably imagine all the profanity that would go here, but he's underwater so that doesn't work]

[So instead he's going to be trying to get Lloyd back and grab him to tackle him under too as he himself tries to break surface!]

[wilder]

Second stomach...?

[Do normal sheep have second stomaches? Crap, he knew he should've paid attention in biology class]

[wolfchild]

There were eight. I thought the meat would be ruined when I started taking them out. The third one broke open so I just cut away the meat that wasn't touched by it and let Nymeria and Grey Wind have the rest.

[wolfchild]

[ Arya stops skinning in favor of cutting the sheep's stomach. She feels carefully through the insides so as not to nick the intestines and ruin the meat.

That's a lot of intestines actually. And one, two, what-- ]

Nothing looks human. It's got eight stomachs, though.

[secondchances]

[Oh, that's just gross.]

That's... a relief.

[wolfchild]

Want to see?

[ She shoves it open, arms trembling slightly from the exertion. ]

[wolfchild]

Why?

[secondchances]

[No, she definitely does not want to see!! But she doesn't want Arya to think she can't handle it, so she moves closer to peer in. Ewwwwwwwwwwwewewew.]

Huh. That's weird. They must have to digest a lot of food. [Or something like that.]

[not_mafia]

Hey Allen, has anyone from the castle ever traveled past the dead zone all the way?

[wolfchild]

[ Arya shrugs. Carefully, she starts pulling out the insides. Nymeria is immediately alert. With the first stomach out, she's already tearing it open to get rid of the insides and eat the lining. ]

Can't you wait?!

[ When she accidentally nicks the third, Arya gives up. ]

Fine! I'll take the leg, you have the rest. Stupid wolf...

[not_mafia]

[BODY PLANTED AGAINST THE DOOR.]

Why?! What are you planning on doing?

[secondchances]

[And she thought Ace's occasional thievery at the dinner table was bad.]

I don't want to imagine how much it takes to keep her fed.

[save_the_souls]

All the way? What do you mean?
