[ OPEN/CATCH-ALL ] the crickets still sing in october.
WHO: dextera! and others!
WHERE: all around town, in a variety of places!
WHEN: october!
WHAT: an open prompt for quest 29’s skeletons (eating them), and whatever else comes up!
WARNINGS: he’s eating bones.
i. NO BONES ABOUT IT (OPEN)
[ dextera used to have a pretty healthy habit for eating bones—it used to be his thing, in fact, but lately he hasn’t had as much of a reason to eat them with all the color popping back up around town. they still provide some nutritional value to him, though, considering the way his body works, and what better to start hoarding for winter than by disassembling skeletons and biting right through their brittle bodies?
throughout the month, catch him doing this exact thing. sometimes he defeats the skeletons before chomping them, and sometimes he just rips the arm off one with his teeth like a dog. the latter, however, he’s only doing if he thinks no one is watching. ]
ii, but new. SEXY NUN COSTUME (~10/17 - 10/19)

ii, but new. SEXY NUN COSTUME (~10/17 - 10/19)
[ dextera got this costume from carving a pumpkin, and it’s probably going to stay on him for a solid three days. he can’t hide in his house for the whole time, especially once the harvest festival starts up, but he also doesn’t want to be seen in it—so of course, people have to see him in it, because that’s the way rp works.
whenever he does have to leave his house, he tries to wear a coat, but the unfortunate reality of this outfit is that still leaves his habit, the jewelry, the socks, and the heels to see from practically any angle. a more discerning eye will definitely see upon looking at him from the front that he’s wearing a dress that was definitely meant for someone with breasts. he’s wobbly walking around in the first place, and it’s only by the grace of god that the few times he trips, the back of his coat is long enough to keep from flashing his ass to the world.
let him die! ]

he assumes that, eventually, god will take her power back and his voice will be returned to him—but maybe not. really, he has no idea how this is all supposed to work. ]
I just think… it makes more sense for someone like you to have this power.

[ the problem was unlocking its use, and still she can only speculate on the reasons it took so long. ]
But you know, a gift is a gift nonetheless. Even if you don't want it, and one day will relinquish it, you were given it for a reason.
[ whether it's a good or a bad one doesn't feel so relevant. everything happens for a reason. ]
no subject
We can talk about it… next time.
[ they’re skirting too close to the conversations best had with two weeks in between, but dextera doesn’t seem upset. he just knows he might get that way, if they pursue it. ]
…how many skeletons have you… destroyed?
no subject
Well -- how many have you?
no subject
…
[ after a moment to consider, he shakes his head. ]
I haven’t… counted.

[ ...this is actually kind of terrible, and her cringing tone matches the expression on her face. oops. ]
no subject
[ dextera spells it out, even though it’s an italian word and he’s technically using italian sign language here. his heart is not actually in the sign for it. ]
We have several “bravos.”

[ or it doesn't feel good, as she starts to actually reflect on her actions. having a conscious is tough. these skeletons are an army of darkness, but one must be mindful of their conduct and she hasn't. ]
...I think we should head back. We've cleared out enough for now.
no subject
They’ll be back… tomorrow. I think.
[ they don’t stop coming. ]
no subject
[ it makes sense to her at least, but it does make the implications of the quest existence troubling. ]
