Autumnal Avocations

[prodigious-mage.livejournal.com]

Who: Open to all!
What: Miscellaneous activities
When: Friday, 10/21
Where: Farmer Carol's farm.
How: ...Walking, running, skipping, or log-rolling are all acceptable.
Why: Because I want to.

As Palom had promised, the farm indeed boasted more wholesome family fun activities than you could shake an apple at.  While the main purpose of the day trip, ostensibly, was to finish up harvesting the fruit, the opportunity to explore the farm and its rural surroundings was enticing as well.  By mid-afternoon, Farmer Carol was fully satisfied with the hard work of the volunteers and announced that they were free to do as they pleased.

CORN MAZE

[prodigious-mage.livejournal.com]

[To the east of the apple orchards, about 10 minutes' walk away, an entire acre of land is dedicated to a corn maze. Whether or not there were enough people in Sirocco willing to pay for this type of entertainment to justify the expense of plowing such intricate designs is beside the point. There are 10 'watchtowers' scattered throughout the maze. Who will reach the exit first?]

[Isshin is freaking lost.]

I think I went LEFT here last time, so how did I end up going in another circle?

[prodigious-mage.livejournal.com]

...

[Palom sticks his head out from around the corner.]

Didn't you come in here 20 minutes ago?

[dadreaper.livejournal.com]

So what if I did?

[prodigious-mage.livejournal.com]

...Well. The rest of me is actually outside the maze.

[dadreaper.livejournal.com]

What do you mean the rest of you?

[prodigious-mage.livejournal.com]

I mean...

[Palom withdraws his head and takes three steps back.]

This is the entrance!

[dadreaper.livejournal.com]

But how-

DAMMIT!

[prodigious-mage.livejournal.com]

It's OK. Not everyone can be as smart as me.

[Palom hasn't even tried yet.]

I can help you through it if you'd like!

[dadreaper.livejournal.com]

Mind your own business!

[prodigious-mage.livejournal.com]

Hey! I was just offering to help!

Kesesese, I'll bet I'll be the fastest one out of this corn maze!



Shit! N-No matter, I can do this!

[Mokona starts following him after the third loop around.]

If you keep it up, you'll get dizzy!

[ichbin-cool.livejournal.com]

Oi, what do you mean, little fluffball?

[manjuumagic.livejournal.com]

Gibert keeps going around~

and~

around~

[ichbin-cool.livejournal.com]

....Huh?



Are you serious?!

[wontdieifkilled.livejournal.com]

Uh...so, where's the next tower?

[Shirou looks lost.]

[gandere]

I told you when we began that you should have let me take the lead, but no, you had to insist otherwise. Now look at us. Lost. In the middle of a field of corn. Do you know that we could very well die out here due to your stubborn pride, Shirou?

[ Another lesson possibly learned: do not do anything fun with Rin. ]

[wontdieifkilled.livejournal.com]

I-it's not that big of a deal! All we need to do is find a watchtower and see where the paths go!

[Never mind the fact that the corn maze isn't small enough to get them to an exit that way...]

[gandere]

Not that big of a deal? Not that big of a deal!? If I'm out here and don't get a good night's rest, the deal is going to get a lot bigger. Alright?

[wontdieifkilled.livejournal.com]

We won't be stuck here overnight! If the sun starts to set, we could just cut through the cornfield.

[gandere]

Why can't we just cut through it now?

[wontdieifkilled.livejournal.com]

Because it isn't urgent yet, that's why.

[gandere]

Ugh, then what's the point of this again? Are we really going to risk losing AND getting lost?

[wontdieifkilled.livejournal.com]

The point? There is no point, it's just a game. It's here for fun and for the challenge.
