Who: Feathers, everyone else
Where: All along the lakeshore
When: Day 242, starting late morning
What: Pavogram!

[Starting at Pyxis, and moving onto Lynx and Corvus, then Monoceros, and finally Cetus, there's a Pavo going door to door with more than a little haste, knocking and calling out.]

Hello! Is anyone home? It's Feathers, from Pavo—there's something you need to know!

Mm, there's plenty of people who don't know. [wryly] It provides a bit of an advantage some of the time.

Re: [Monoceros]

Is it because of something in your memories?

Re: [Monoceros]

This [gestures to himself] was a failed attempt to kill me.

Re: [Monoceros]

[roadtothesky.insanejournal.com]

Kill you . . . ?

Re: [Monoceros]

I witnessed something I shouldn't have and they tried to poison me. But instead of doing what it was supposed to, the poison shrank my body.

And because of that, and that I'm supposed to be dead, as far as I know only a handful of people in my memories know about it, so that the people responsible don't find me and make another attempt.

Re: [Monoceros]

That sounds like a really, really weird poison. Almost magic-strange.

Re: [Monoceros]

[onetruth.insanejournal.com]

It was an experimental poison, as far as I remember.

Re: [Monoceros]

[roadtothesky.insanejournal.com]

They weren't trying to make people really old instead, were they? So all they'd have to do was scare them a little, and that would be it?

Re: [Monoceros]

[onetruth.insanejournal.com]

. . . no, I don't think so.

Re: [Monoceros]

[roadtothesky.insanejournal.com]

[Nods, accepting that.]

. . . I'm glad you're still here. And if you ever need to call me 'neechan again . . . I'll understand.

Re: [Monoceros]

[onetruth.insanejournal.com]

[small laugh]

I'll try not to.

Re: [Monoceros]

[roadtothesky.insanejournal.com]

It can be a secret code! And I'll try extra hard to pretend you're only as old as you look.

Re: [Monoceros]

[onetruth.insanejournal.com]

[l-laughs again]

If you want to. Or you can treat me the same way you have been up until now.

Re: [Monoceros]

[roadtothesky.insanejournal.com]

I'd like that best.

Re: [Monoceros]

[onetruth.insanejournal.com]

Me too.

Re: [Monoceros]

[roadtothesky.insanejournal.com]

Deal!

And when we finish the baths, you should definitely come.

Re: [Monoceros]

[onetruth.insanejournal.com]

(She really likes the baths . . . )

I'll consider it.

Re: [Monoceros]

[roadtothesky.insanejournal.com]

That's enough.

And, until then . . . be careful, okay? And make sure the rest of Monoceros and Lepus are careful, too.

Re: [Monoceros]

[onetruth.insanejournal.com]

I will. Thank you again, Feathers.

Re: [Monoceros]

[roadtothesky.insanejournal.com]

Thank Arson, too! I would have come anyway, but he really wanted to be sure Monoceros knew, too.

Re: [Monoceros]

[onetruth.insanejournal.com]

Ah . . . I'll thank him, too, then, the next time I see him.
