[Open] I don't think you're ready for this jelly

[justice_is_blond]

WHO: Alistair and Anders and YOU
WHAT: Alistair tightropes. In a dress. While singing.
WHEN: Kingsway 21st
WHERE: Camp Shady Fucker
NOTES: There will probably be some awful sap because this is Nate's birthday, you've been warned. Otherwise, no warnings anticipated.

It's not publicized, but word has a habit of getting out.

Zevran has publicized matters, and now it's time for some morale boosting. There's a low tightrope stretched between two trees with a great many chairs, stumps, and logs set up as seating options. Today is the day for someone to earn himself new boots, shirts, and a shield, and it promises to be a show.

Come on up, pull up a seat, and enjoy the entertainment.

The Alfajors go quite well with the cider- and they are fresh.

[ Zevran himself swings by for the moment, pleased to coax out another sale. ]

If you dip them in your drink and then bite? Ah, autumnal bliss. The cinnamon, almond, and apple warm you right through.

mingling, not pre-show because BABY BEAR.

[Looking over, Inessa perks up as Zevran makes an appearance.]

Oh, that does sound good. It's Antivan, isn't it? I think I'll have to give in, and try it for myself.

[She nods for that to be added as well, noting that Garahel's getting antsy. Of course, the elven infant in the bear suit is noted as well and she smiles warmly.]

That's quite a handsome bear you have.

BABBIN BEAR

[ombranera]

[ Teresa nods and adds a packet of fresh baked Alfajors to go with the cider and skewers. If Inessa gets a second on the house for her mabari? No one is going to say anything. Especially with how pleased Lucci is to see Garahel. ]

He is a darling little sort, is he not? Say hello to the nice lady-

[ Lucci squeals, making the closest approximation of a bear's growl that he can manage, paw gloves and all. ]

[circleprodigy]

[Nodding her thanks to Teresa, Inessa's attention is snared again after receiving her goods. That squeal gets her to laugh softly. How can she possibly be unaffected by such adorable fierceness?]

Hello, Lucci. It's nice to put a face to the name. And this is Garahel, who is very heroic and starving, but he does love attention too.

[Perking up, Garahel barks and wags his tail. It's hard to tell if he's more excited about food or the tiny bear. (It's food, but the baby bear isn't that far behind.) When Inessa hands him one of the skewers, he practically inhales it.]

[ombranera]

Bawi!

[ Lucci knows a mabari when he sees one, enough loiter about Skyhold and in the valley. Remarkable creatures, marvelous hounds- and very warm, very gentle around infants. The little bear waves down to the hound, laugh bright and vibrant. ]

He does pop up often when I am on the crystals, this is true. The hardest thing is keeping him from putting it in his mouth.

[circleprodigy]

[Garahel, finishing that first skewer with almost indecent haste, looks up and barks happily at Lucci. If the infant is close enough, he'll definitely get licked but the mabari is well-trained and won't jump. He knows to be polite and gentle.]

That's right, a mabari. Very good, Lucci.

[Inessa smiles fondly, then chuckles upon hearing Zevran.]

That must be distracting, though at the same time, he is helpful in lightening a mood. [No one can remain depressed or anxious for long when faced with such happy burbling.] Perhaps crystal time can also be snack time? Crystals don't take nearly as good as actual food.

[ombranera]

No, but they do shine so. I have thought of perhaps finding him something similar without the enchantment for him to play with, but have yet to find the time. I know there are hard sugar candies that would only encourage him to try to put it in his mouth more rather than less...perhaps when he is older.

[ One day, some day. Years down the line. ]

I am usually called upon at odd hours- sometimes he is asleep, sometimes not, but usually he has already eaten. I could change when I answer my calls- that might work well for us both.
