@TheGenerator I thought you were trying to trade your turtle for Parish's snow globe. :D

OOC:
That's also perfectly fine by me :)
@gesges if you want the turtle, it's all yours! Your choice.

Parish jumps as he notices another catch in his pole
"Oh my... ohhhhh my... look look! Something else liked this lure! Today must be my lucky day!!
A cute turtle!"


He smiles broadly as Gertrude and the talking turtle talk

"Perhaps... you can tell us your name? I am Parish and this is Gertrude. And those are Sal, Monday and Miss Sherry."

Looking at his friends, Parish notices that Monday has no catch (yet) and he feels sorry. Parish loves to fish, but what he loves the most is the feeling of getting a catch in this wonderful sport. And he doesnt want Monday to go without a catch.
But this is a talking turtle, who should also decide about its fate!

"Friendly Turtle, you seems to like my friend Ger, I know she is very very nice, but here my friend Monday didnt get anything today from the lake, yet. She is veeeeery nice... and veeeeery magical.... I believe you two will like each other.... you seem fit one for the other. Dont you agree Ger? And at home, Carrot and our turtle friend will be able to play together, isnt it Monday?

So... what do you three say?"
OOC:
Bingo: carry out a noble act with dignity and poise

"I’m Terry!" the turtle says. "Yes, what fun! I’ll be your pet, Monday!" Terry waddles over to the fairy and wiggles his little tail.
The day seems to have flown by as you’ve enjoyed yourselves at the fishing hole. The sun begun to sink below the horizon, and it’s time to hike back to the Bed & Breakfast and brag about your catches...
OOC:
You may post a little epilogue if you’re so inclined. I’ll officially wrap things up tomorrow morning and deal with Housekeeping then. :)

Monday can't believe her ears. "For me?" She says in disbelief when Parish hands her the turtle. "He's a cutie, isn't he!"

Why Parish was being so nice to her after her mean comments was beyond her comprehension. Especially the word "friend" stood out. It shattered her merchant's composure as an arrow of warmth hit her right in the heart.

"Thank you, Parish. You come by the night market sometime, I've got something you might enjoy."

"If I'd have known you were all such great fishermen and women, I wouldn't have come today." She looks at Terry and then at her friends. "But I'm glad I did."
OOC:
That's a bingo for me: Offer a good deal. Not sure if it's still useful to do anything like that.

Gesges, I think you can add a note to Parish's sheet that Monday has promised him a gift. Might be fun in a different chapter <3

Parish smiles broadly
"Oh What a fantastic day has it been, isnt it?
I loved your company, when are we repeating?
Now, lets go to the B&B, it is getting dinner time!

The night market! Oh... that would be really fun! Thank you Monday!"
