[here they are in the hallway of doors! and since rupert is a fool who hasn't yet given up on finding something useful in one of these rooms, he's opening a door without realizing bucky is nearby, which means they are both being transported immediately to clown town. there is a very low chance that he knows what clowns are, but he is alarmed regardless as they start getting rushed at by one of them.]
Bucky jumps in front of Rupert and uses the forward momentum to sock the clown in the jaw. I rolled a 10 so it's not as great a punch as he'd like, but it's enough to get the clown to stagger back. ]
The staff can give you tasks for stuff and sometimes the task involves doing something weird or acting weird but having to pretend there's nothing weird about how you're acting
Uhhh I'll check with them and see if that's okay just to be safe
You can pretty much go to anyone though I think
Well except maybe Lepus don't talk to them they're the worst but that's more of a thing you shouldn't do than a thing you can't do. Also only go to Virgo if you're very patient
I like Aquila a lot. Aquarius and Orion, too. Gemini and Cetus are awkward with people but they seem nice. Vulpecula is kind of hard to pin down but not bad I think.
[a little while after the announcement, he's making his way across the courtyard, heading towards the elevator to get to the rooms. he has dirt on his face and in his hair, as well as his clothes, but he pauses when he sees bucky.]
w1, monday.
Um, can we talk this out—?!

Wait, wait, maybe we don't have to fight it—!

[ the clown howls in rage and leaps for them again. Bucky will try kicking it in the gut this time. ]

Hey I'm not brainwashed just so you know
Also if you see someone acting weird like that again or even just weird in a completely different inexplicable way you should probably just go with it
no subject
Why? How am I supposed to know you didn't get cursed and brainwashed if I'm supposed to just "go with it"?
no subject
So
no subject
Did you complete it already then?

I guess telling me after the fact is about as good as I can hope for, for knowing you WEREN'T brainwashed somehow.
Mind telling me who it was for?

no subject
You mean don't talk to Lepus in general, or for tasks?
no subject
Probably in general unless you have a good reason to talk to them specifically, they are not very nice at all
[if whoever plays lepus reads this i'm sorry and ilu]
no subject
They're not as bad as I thought they were. But that's a low bar to clear.
Any of them you'd actually recommend talking to?

Good luck!

no subject
Depends how you're defining adventure.
