Been busy lately

(I'm using a SCP character bc all my others are boring.)
???: *stares at him through (its/his? Idk I'm just gonna say his) his mask. Trying to sense the Pestilence*

Afra: *humming as she skips through the forest* dum dum der, running from the lousy hunters, through the Louisiana forest~ god, Dadastor is so much better at this

*hugs back* how bout this, I’ll send you home and you don’t tell your father about this. I’ll get your book and bring it to you

*Afra nods excitedly*
Afra: thank you!

What’s it look like?

That’s a parade

Afra: a parade, huh? why's everyone dressed up? they look like they're trying to imitate Demons in hell

*laughs* i don’t know why but they are

*Some people compliment them on their outfits and give them more beads. some obviously drunk dudes get Afra to dance with them, but they don't harm her- well, beyond hell standards*

*kills every person that hurts her* don’t touch her!

Afra: 0-0 holy shit dude! we were dancing-! um, I think . . . wait, actually, I have no clue how this world works . . . *he ears pin back as she realizes she's got no idea what's going on*

Don’t let them do that

Afra: r-right . . . I’m sorry . . .

*sighs* hey I’m just trying to protect you so neither of us get in trouble

*Afra suddenly hugs him. She’s trembling*
Afra: . . . The overworld is scary . . . I wanna go home . . .

(XD)
Where’s this theater?

Afra: downtown, I think. Main Street *it's Mardi Gras, and everything is decorated and lit up. beads are on the ground and music is playing*

Why is it so purple?

Afra: I dunno, but it's like me so I like it! *the purple haired girl's deer ears swiveled in the direction of the music and lights*

*chuckles*

*She looked over. it was a parade! people were throwing beads and confetti. a necklace of gold and purple beads landed on Afra's antlers and a piece of confetti on her nose. she sneezed, looking up confused*

Heh *moves the necklace to around her neck* well if it’s a parade it’s gonna be hard to find the theater

Afra: this is awesome . . . . what is it?

A necklace

Afra: no, no, THAT *she gestures to the parade* there's so many people

*sees you* Afra? What are you doing here, your dad is gonna kill you!

Afra: I know, I know, he's gonna be mad, yes, yes, listen. I'm trying to get a surprise for him and bring it back for him, but I'm toooooootally lost

Where do you need to go?

Afra: it's a theater downtown. I wanna see if I can find an old book of his and give it back to him!

Oh ok *teleports them to downtown*

Afra: woah~ . . . it's so cool! the sky's so blue! it's so amazing!

*chuckles* it’s nighttime kiddo

Afra: oh . . . . . well, It's still awesome!

*laughs and starts walking*

*Afra follows, skipping. she's fascinated by the living world, having only ever been in hell ('cept that ONE time, but that didn't really count)*

Marina: Mr?

*teleports into it*

Marina: *hugs it*

*smile*

Marina: Cya later tonight.
