MARCH UPDATE

POSTED ON Aug 31, 2024 18:32:13 GMT

When getting to where you're supposed to go is another parkour in itself ... "I'm here. Finally. So, who needs fixing?" Katharina sighs as she arrives at the destination, somehow in one piece. "Got a bit delayed on account of the sinking, and all." She plucks a stray piece of algae from her jeans, and does her best to calm down from the harrowing experience. But, frankly, it could be worse, as she's seen over the course of the day. The whole situation truly has something of a nightmare, but a manageable one at least. Somewhat. It does instill fear of the ocean in her, who has not really been there much before.

For a moment, she also frowns slightly. Hopefully, no one died yet in the extra minutes she needed to get from A to B ...

Katharina frowns at the sudden change in assignment, and ... "I still can't get used to that phone." She misread the assignment, but hey, at least no one died then. "Wonder if that's lucky or unlucky ... but let's get to it then, how's the situation except bad?" she asks, rolling up her sleeves as she readies herself for clean-up duty.

"I'm Katharina - and that little guy here is Froschl." She gestures to the "Froggiursa" coming up behind her, in all his sticky glory. "How can we-" she starts asking, as Froschl gives a warning ribbit (or other scream? It's really hard to tell sometimes) at the Falinks, seeing as some Skrelp move to attack them. Froschl quickly moves towards the Skrelp with a Play Rough.

[attr="class","textbox"]The skrelp clash against the Falinks but find their bulwarks uniquely suited to be a shield. They do nothing to attack the threat content as they were to tire their opponents out. With Katharina Strophe's help, the group moves off to bother someone, or something, else.

With a little bit of roughing up and just resilience, the Skrelp gladly move onto another target. "I hope they won't make too much trouble out there," Katharina remarks as Froschl returns, licking his roughled honey-covered ~~fur~~ skin, "But you little guys are really sturdy, hm?"

But back at the situation at hand ... and the situation is fairly bad. She sighs - you're barely a week here and everything's going down the drain (and how correct she might be, considering the tensions). "Alright, think that should be doable. Do you have a designated spot for the movable rubble?" she asks the other, carefully lifting a fallen wodden plank that's splintered in half, with Froschl moving to drag the other half. She holds it steadily, but gingerly as well - splinters are the last thing she needed under her skin.

Katharina looks slightly irritated and maybe indignant at King's laugh, but the creases are smoothed over by the explanation that followed. "Oh, I see ... no worries about that," they gave him a thumbs-up, "Suppose not everyone's dealing with explosions most of the time. ... which is also an exaggeration." Still, even as they're really careful and all, just one wrong calculation and there's a little bit of a fire.

"That looks like a good spot!" she agrees, carefully placing her plank over there. "Actually, Froschl, let's see if you can glue these two together, and we can see if we can put everything on the plank, make it easier to move later?"

Froschl seems to mimic Katharina's roll-up-sleeves motion from earlier, just with a distinct lack of sleeves. He does, however, have a fair amount of sticky honey all over himself, which provides a very slimey coat. (Honestly, if you think about it too much, it's a lot.) He carefully starts getting honey glue over the splinters without injuring himself, as ... "Ohh, another frog!" Katharina exclaims excitedly at the appearance of Greninja.

Seeing his fellow kin, Froschl also appears quite excited, making his best ribbit sound in greeting (which, over the years, has become awfully convincing if he concentrates on it). "Then we should have that plank fixed in no time to carry the debris!"
