  • 1. Sand and Salt

  • [It's weird waking up in sand and waves crashing around with a massive headache when you know for certain you didn't fall asleep that way. Well, minus the water part. There was a lot of water. And fish people.

    He sits up and rubs his eyes, blinking blearily at his surroundings. That's... well this is a sight.]


    I wanna believe we were at a massive party... [Even when he's 100% sure they weren't. Looking around, he spots a person sleeping and nudges them-] Wake up, you'll turn into a crab. ['Red like a crab' but details.] It actually smells like fried crabs, [his attention gets dragged away to some of the festival's stands, but he's still sitting in the sand, half covered with it, not feeling like getting up yet.]


  • 2. Festival of the Sun - evening

  • [Sat at the edge of the circle around bonfire, Molly's holding a bottle with a drink and a glass, but not drinking. Instead, he's been staring at the wonderful bonfire- the dancing and songs, drinking and singing and warmth of the fire, waking up some wonderful memories and for a moment he thought he could hear Lestera's voice calling him to dance. But when he looks around, it's just a pair of people just around the corner, having a dance and laughing.

    Molly smiles to himself and looks back to the bonfire, placing the bottle and glass in the sand and stands, wanting to mingle with the people dancing- he'll either return to his drink later or someone else will find it and enjoy it. There's plenty to go around.]


    I can dance ONLY, I can't sing- just a warning! [he says to someone who nudges him forward for a dance.] You really don't want me singing.


  • 3. Stop and smell the Flowers

  • [Molly's never understood nature, and he usually didn't fuck with it; yes, he's down to try anything, but there's a certain limitation when it comes to shrooms. He's not an idiot to try ANY type of shroom, just those he heard of that have interesting effects.

    He's been observing quite a peculiar cluster of mushrooms, poking it with tip of his sword, when one of it popped, like a balloon, which is weird as it wasn't the one he was poking. It made him sneeze loudly and turn away from the powder that flew up in the air. His hands feel sluggish all of a sudden and his sight got blurry. Very blurry. To the point that he can only tell up and down apart, and white color at times.]


    Well, fuck me, [he stops in the middle of the road, then tries to feel around for a tree and support.] Anyone there? This wasn't supposed to happen.


  • 4. Go Bump in the Night

  • [The occasional static noise coming from the weird, plastic thing is actually unsettling. Molly's sitting in one corner of the room, and the tablet is on the table on the OTHER side of the room, and he can still hear it. It's actually very grating. He's been successfully trying to ignore the murmurs that sometimes come from it, but for a second Molly could swear he could hear Caleb say: "Leave me alone, I'm reading." It's interrupted by more static afterward, but Molly is 100% sure it was him. After that, a sound of Yasha sharpening her sword, singing, a maniacal giggle that's Nott (made ten times creepier by static), then back to Caleb talking to Frumpkin or shushing people.

    Finally, Molly leaves his place and goes to pick it up, tapping the screen a few times. Then he throws his coat on, pulls the hood on, and goes outside, the tablet still in hand- maybe, who knows this weird magic- maybe outside there's better reception? Maybe Caleb's actually here. Or Nott, he heard only them.

    When he spots another person with a device like his, he walks up to them, briskly-]
    You! You know how to use this, right? Lend a man a hand and teach me too.
