( OPEN ) all things fit in the mouth

[harageous]

Who: Eda (harageous) & probably you
What: Donate stuff to be destroyed! Or well "destroyed". GUESS WE'LL SEE.
When: Late March
Where: West Park, Sunset Falls.
Content Warnings: Hole talk.

( ridiculous posters have been stapled up all over the city of sunset falls.



put {STUFF} into the {HOLE}. today only! today only! today only! visit west park between the hours of 11am and 4pm to donate! become part of history when your treasured item gets consumed by the hellmouth!

today only! don't forget that! limited time!

should the posters provide proper enticement or just invoke enough curiosity, eda can be found set up at a small booth near the entrance of west park. it's just a folding table, chair, and a couple plastic bins, but the star of the show are the several light orbs dancing above the table.

the perfect little spheres spell out "DONATE TO THE HELLMOUTH TODAY" if viewed at by the correct angle. should anyone make the mistake of walking by, eda is already all but forcing a flyer into their hands. )

Hello, hello! Ya got anything for the Mouth ™ today?

[Once he'd caught wind of...whatever this was (garbage day?), Nox was quick to investigate. Both because it sounded utterly strange to begin with, but also because he had informed the new mayor he'd look into whether the Hellmouth could serve as a suitable method to dispose of any ghosts that insisted on remaining a public menace.

Nox only bothered to make himself known after Eda had finished accos-encouraging the latest passerby for an offering. And, as usual, anything approaching a polite introduction was completely out of the question, and Nox instead opted to just reappear out of thin air a short distance away from the witch.]

Bit of an aggressive approach, but I can't argue with the results. Word is spreading quickly.

[harageous]

( of course it is! one of eda's special skills is demanding attention.

also holding attention. on occasion, it can actually be a little bit of a problem. being vibrant and memorable had its drawbacks, as it turns out. )

I've only got two modes. Aggressive and more aggressive.

( she chirps, pressing her palms against the folding table and leaning forward. )

Looks like word got to you too. You got anything you're looking to get rid of?

[a_gaggle_of_ghosties]

If that's true, it's a pity you weren't put in charge of the mayor's press events.

[Would it work out? Probably not. Would he find it entertaining? Absolutely.]

My "donation" isn't something that can be placed in a bin, it will need to be disposed of directly. The mayor suggested I make arrangements with you to find out whether or not the Hellmouth could rid us of troublesome ghosts.

[harageous]

In another life, I was! Ha!

( granted, it was on a much smaller scale within the bubble. still, the fact remains.

but the suggested donation gives her pause. )

You couldn't just chase 'em out?

( said in the same way as if they were discussing raccoons. after all, by her perspective, they're about the same thing. grabby, noisy pests. )

[a_gaggle_of_ghosties]

I'm not fond of half measures. Chase them out and there's nothing stopping them from returning, or from causing trouble elsewhere.

[He was very much aware that "let it be someone else's problem" was its own school of thought when it came to nuisances. Sometimes it was even the appropriate course of action.

But Nox was someone who preferred to only have to deal with any particular problem once.]

It's easier for everyone to bind them until they learn to behave. The ones that do are free to go. The problem is I don't currently have any way of getting rid of the ones that don't. Even as weak as they are, there's likely a limit to how many I can bind at once, and I'd rather not discover it the hard way.

[harageous]

Yeah, yeah, yeah. I got it.

( it kind of sounds like she wasn't really listening, but she's simply considering the idea. or rather the finer details of the situation.

throwing ghosts down the hole? sign her up.

but transport was worth considering. )

So what's your binding method? You anchor 'em to yourself or use a proxy?

[a_gaggle_of_ghosties]

Myself.

[It was an honest answer, it was an extreme oversimplification.

Someone else's poor understanding on the exact nature of the bond had literally saved his life twice already, so the less detail the better.]

If there's a method to bind them to a proxy, I've yet to hear of it.
