Who: Ahiru + Residents of the Disaster House + Reaper
What: A VERY IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT
When: Sometime after Fern's recovery
Where: The Disaster House

Content Warnings: N/A


[ so after much waffling and discussion with fakir, ahiru finally came to the conclusion that she needs to tell her friends the truth. well . . . her house mates at least. she wasn't going to go around blabbing it to everyone. she wasn't quite ready for that.

but if there's one thing this place has taught her, it's not safe to keep her secret all to herself. ahiru needed people in her corner and she believed her house-mates would protect her.

and hopefully . . . not too much will change. she hopes. ]

Uhm, I'm glad you're all here. I have something important to tell you guys. I've been keeping a secret.

Not like a big secret or a dark secret, but more like a secret about me. A personal, kind of weird, don't freak out sort of secret.

Y-Yeah, Fakir was just trying to help.

But he's only one person and he can't do it all the time . . .

[droptheious]

He definitely went a weird way about it, but he tried!

[Just in the weirdest, gruffest way possible. He offers a smile.]

Well. Now he doesn't have to worry about doing it all the time. We'll help out, too.

[danserai]

Thank you.

[ it is a huge relief. being scared happens, but it's rare for it to happen so often to her. ]

[droptheious]

Don't mention it.

[Genuinely. He wants more than anything for the people who live under this roof to feel safe. That's...kind of the point of the place, after all.]

Is there anything specific I need to do to help out? With the duck thing?

[danserai]

Just like . . . make sure no one kidnaps me to make me a pet . . .

[droptheious]

...Is that something that happens?

[Why are people like this?]

No problem. We can do that. Uh, can you sometimes lose your human form out of your control? Just...so I know how likely it is.

[danserai]

It's something that seems to happen here. I don't get why people like ducks so much . . .

[droptheious]

I don't either, really. Ducks are...pretty harmless as animals go.

[danserai]

Nobody cared about ducks back in town.

[droptheious]

Well. Things will be different here. We care about ducks in this house.

[danserai]

[ aww. ]

Thanks, Varian.

[droptheious]

[His smile gentles.]

Hey, anytime.
