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.

[imaglyphwitch]

Later?

[Oh. She had more secrets, but she was still building up to that].

Ok, sure. Later! Some things are good to keep to yourself, if you think you need time.

[danserai]

Thanks. It's . . . a lot and I don't think I'm ready to talk about all of it.

[imaglyphwitch]

Then don't! Wait until you're ready, if that ever happens.

We'll just be here. I mean, when I asked you to come, I didn't need to know your life story. Some of that stuff is pretty personal, and private.

[danserai]

[ it's technically not personal or private but it sure is . . . depressing. ]

Yeah . . . It's not easy to talk about.

[imaglyphwitch]

In that case, keep it to yourself. We're happy enough just having you here, duck and all!

[danserai]

. . . Thanks, Luz.

[imaglyphwitch]

You're welcome!

Oh, and fair warning. If you turn into a duck, expect to be cuddled and given bread. I can't be expected to control myself around adorable animals. I'm only human, you know.

[danserai]

That sounds fair!

[imaglyphwitch]

Great!

Um. Be careful of the Fathiers in the stable, by the way. Probably don't ever be a duck in there.

They were a gift from Darth Maul!

[danserai]

Why do we even have those . . .

[imaglyphwitch]

Well.

I adopted them.

[danserai]

Luz . . .

[imaglyphwitch]

But they're really cute and needed a home and they'll be totally helpful once I train them!


Also I'm pretty sure Darth Maul might have eaten them otherwise.

[danserai]

[ oh dear. ]

Do you even know how to train them?

[imaglyphwitch]

Im...I'm... working on it. I got some tips from Maul. They just have to get used to us!

[danserai]

If you say so.

[imaglyphwitch]

Don't worry, I've got this!

[Probably].

[danserai]

I can help with feeding, if you want.

[ she's not sure how she feels about pets. considering that most people would see her as one, it's not something she wants to deal with. ]

But if you're not up for handling it, you need to say so. Okay?

[imaglyphwitch]

Thanks, I appreciate that!

[It's...shoveling the poop she's not going to love. That part is definitely going to be the worst. No way out of that one].

I'm up for handling it! I'm just pretty sure it won't be easy. They're going to get pretty big.

[danserai]

Uh.

How big.

[imaglyphwitch]

...

I plead the fifth.

[danserai]

Luz.

[imaglyphwitch]

Going by what Maul said, about...eight to nine feet.

[danserai]

That's — Really big!

[imaglyphwitch]

I know, I know. It's a bit crazy, but I'm confident I can train them!
