I have a request.
Well, a lot of requests. Tiny requests, for lots of people. Not necessarily just tiny people, though — tiny, tall, whatever. That is to say...any people can help. If you're a people? And you're a help? I would greatly appreciate that.
[From off screen, a voice that sounds like Tuck can be heard stage-whispering: "Tell them WHY..." ]
—Oh, right.
[Vyng clears his throat and puts on a pair of tiny-rimmed glasses to make himself at least a little dignified, and he continues.]
. . . You see, Sleepers. There is an artifact of...uh, great personal importance to myself. A relic, if you will, that bears the name of my Druidic family.
But a local has taken stewardship over this relic o' mine. They have offered to relinquish this relic into my custody — but! For a price. Namely, this list of assorted items that I'm attaching at the end of my message.
[With a quiet "this one, right here", he literally places a piece of paper over the camera. "Too close?" Vyng pulls the paper back. He holds it there for awhile. If anybody looks, they can make out the following list:]
DONATIONS NEEDED, PLEASE & THANK YOU
[From behind the paper, Vyng asks:]
How long do I have to keep holding this?
[. . . ]
Is this good? I think it's good.
[Eventually, though, a digital copy is included at the tail of this message, with a tiny handwritten note at the bottom:]

- Virgin blood spilled beneath moonlight
- Sweat from a shop owner
- Nail clippings of a swordsman
- A braided lock of hair passed between enemies
- Tears of a child
- Pthumerian bone
- True love's kiss
- Appendix from a useless person (?????)
- Fur, feather, or scale from a gentle Beast (that was not slain)

The equivalent of a scale or a feather, I guess. So maybe a small lock?
[And because he can't resist, he adds:]
Who did your facepaint, by the way? It looks uh-mazing.
no subject
Oh, Vi did it this time, but Allen gave me the glitter.
[this may be why jinx seems particularly troublesome today? she braided her hair herself.]
A scale or feather is quite like a single hair, in design, but I think I can manage a few. It's unfortunate he has the shortest hair of all my hounds.
no subject
[Poor hound. The last thing he wants to do is inconvenience a dog to get his tiara back. But if Sansa thinks it'll be okay...]
It's the word "fur" that makes me think it's gotta be more than one hair. Will your buddy need a sweater after this?
no subject
[all of sansa's dogs wear elaborate harnesses at times; knight more often than the others, as he requires a shorter leash. she smiles.]
Vi paints faces with us at the Sanctuary on weekends, but she'll take commissions for any other work whenever you like. Of course, if you would let me know when you might stop by for Knight's fur, I can ask her if she can paint your face then.
no subject
[Vyng wouldn't like it if some asshole just snipped some of his wild mane without saying anything, so he can't help but put that out there. But on the other hand, his expression brightens at the mention of face-painting.]
You know what? That sounds like it'd be fun. I'll see if my family wants to come along, too. We'll make a jolly jaunt out of it.
no subject
I doubt he cares one way or the other, but he'll be glad to do anything that pleases Lady––and I'll give him a treat.
[the treat is blood. she beams.]
You're welcome to break your fast with us; Vi paints our faces at the start of the day.
no subject
[Only the best blood for the goodest boy!!!]
That is a most gracious offer. Would this be break-fast be like a potluck thing? Or a freestyle buffet you guys set out?
no subject
Well, we usually have mushrooms on toast, or eggs, and any cake we have at hand. We have tea, and milk, with honey or sugar, and very often sweet rolls and jam. We have butter and cheese, too, for the toast.
[mostly sansa has tea and cake]
We would very much appreciate anything you might bring us from the farm.
no subject
This all sounds very delightful, Sansa. I will be certain to pass the invitation along to my family. My son will be very interested in the sweet rolls and cake, I should say.
Any special requests? From the farm, I mean.
voice: un: vi
Allen's glitter really makes it.
Yeah, I'm down for a morning of painting. Just gotta check the paint and make sure it's---
--- uh, I'm gonna get a new batch of paint just to make sure.
[maybe new brushes, too. and perhaps she should have someone help her write up another waiver? she'll just copy the one she uses for tattooing instead of bothering palamedes about it. or ...she'll bother sansa. maybe she shouldn't say anything? oh hello disproportionate worry, looks ...like it's time to meditate again.]
no subject
[Now he's curious.]
no subject
[she will not mention the part where she awkwardly drank a friend's blood.]
no subject
Oh my god. You've got shapeshifter paint? And you're throwing it away?
[WHY WOULD YOU DO THIS. IT SOUNDS AMAZING.]
no subject
You want it? It's yours as long as you know what you're in for. I just signed up for painting faces, not all these little extras. I ...can't be responsible for this.
[TAKE IT. and technically she's not responsible if there's a waiver, but still.]
no subject
[Questionable quest items? Heck yeah, sign him up.]
It's just been so long.
no subject
All yours. I'll bring it with the clippings.
no subject
That sounds great! I'll see you at the Sanctuary, then?
no subject
...something pretty fast.
no subject
A rattlesnake.
[Who the hell would give two shakes of a whole-ass rattlesnake?? Doesn't matter. He's pretty sure anyone who shook one would be doing it pretty fucking fast, though.]
