And above all, no wishing for more wishes
Characters: Rupert Giles and YOU!
Open? Oh, yes.
Where: All around Schwanheim and the surrounding farmland
When: All day 2nd of Rebirth's Decline
What: Giles is stuck in a bottle. Giles would very much like to let out of the bottle. Giles will grant you a wish should you let him out of the bottle. And if you don't want a messed up poltergeist throwing furniture around, you should probably take him up on that.
Warnings: PG - Mayhem and chaos, but probably nothing much worse.
A bottle catches your eye, as you go about your business
It might be sitting on the dresser of your room, on a windowsill as you walk down the street, or just laying in the grass as though carelessly discarded. It seems, in all aspects, to be a perfectly ordinary bottle...except, well, you probably know by now that it's never a perfectly ordinary anything. For one thing, it seems to contain something, a swirling white mist that seems to move throughout the bottle like a living thing, trapped and testing the walls of its prisons. For another, well, for those who can sense it there's an undeniable spark of power about the bottle, a sense of magic, something that just makes it stand out. And for a third, it's just quite a nice bottle.
Maybe it was left here just for you to find. How else can you explain how it wound up here, just where you happened to look at this very instant, sitting just where it needed to catch your eye?
Go on, pick it up. It will fit nicely in your pocket (even if you don't currently have any pockets) and a bottle is a useful sort of thing to have around, isn't it?
Well, once it's empty. Maybe you should uncork it and shoo that strange mist out, first. Can't tell what it might do to whatever you put inside, otherwise.

Giles pauses in the street, the people flowing around them and occasionally bumping into them before murmuring apologies and moving on. And then he sniffs at the air once or twice, before looking to the right. There's a small booth in the shadow of a larger building, where a large steel kettle can just be seen being boiled over a roaring fire. Should Helios care to take a sniff, he'll recognize the scent of extremely strong, extremely sweet tea easily enough.

"That's the smell I've been so fondly missing. The tea here smells absolutely delicious. Shall we get some?"
no subject
And, indeed, once they make it as far as the stall, the two of them will be able to purchase two flasks of piping hot sweet tea that will probably last them a while yet. It won't cost very much, and then the two of them can continue their wanderings of the market.
"Cheers," says Giles quietly, when they've moved away and out of people's way. He holds out the flash for a toast. Because this is a good moment. This is a moment where a toast is warranted.
no subject
"It's amazing. I-I've never tea that tasted quite this good before. I wish I could make mine like this." Helios will look around the bustling marketplace and then back to Giles.
"Shall we look around for a little while?" Helios loves marketplaces, it's always the best spot to get to know the locals and the things they love to eat. Not to mention news or any other stories one could perhaps overhear or come by in the process of checking out local delicacies.
