[Game 21] Summoning

[arsgoetia]

For some of you, this may be a familiar feeling. For others, it's a new sensation: a tug, a pull, suddenly finding yourself slipping between the cracks and opening your eyes in someplace that was not where you were a few moments ago. It feels like getting tugged into someone's embrace: warm, a little exhilarating.

As for where you find yourselves:

It's a tidy, well-kept garden in the backyard of a small house with yellow trim. The house is a little run down, but immaculately clean and well-kept. It's a sunny day, and there are literally pies cooling on the windowsill.

There is a red-haired boy standing on the rooftop, looking down at everyone with his hands outstretched. One moment, he seems very calm. The next moment, it's sheer panic.

"Oh???"

Comments

[ancestuous]

Several of us were called here at once.

[beginningofwisdom]

So I see. Is that common, in these circumstances?

[ancestuous]

Yes, from my experiences.

[beginningofwisdom]

Then it seems yours have prepared you better than mine. Can you tell me something of them?

[ancestuous]

If I recall correctly... I was once called because of an arcane ritual. Then another time to solve a mystery at a school. Another time for... a wedding. Or rather, there was a wedding? There are people who need help and we were brought to assist them.

[beginningofwisdom]

It seems a rather extravagant way of asking for help.

[ancestuous]

Very.

[beginningofwisdom]

Well, I won't object to making myself useful, if need be.

[ancestuous]

That's good.

[light-heartedly]

Until we're needed, perhaps they'll provide us with some pie.

[beginningofwisdom]

I certainly won't object to that either.

[ancestuous]

It would be nice if they summoned us for dinner.

[beginningofwisdom]

It would, though I doubt that's the case.
