"You're wrong! Merpeople are beastfolk of the fish. Beastfolk are a separate group from fae in most cases." This may come off as insistent terminology to Maple.

[Oggy123]

"I could become something like a T. rex!" Gooble yells to Bunyan.

Gooble then looks at Emilia. "Beastfolk?" he asks. "And what's a changeling?"

[wingedcatgirl]

"And what would you know about merpeople, huh?" Maple challenges. "Have you even met any?"

[noodlesnook]

"Beastfolk... of the fish... that doesn't even make any sense..."
Zee seem to be malfunctioning, if you can say that about ( presumably ) biological organisms.

[Mr. Lee Hammer]

Mindy stands there hearing about the merfolk debate and she decides to have her say.

Hey, merfolk aren't beasts, they're not fairies, they're all just regular personalities like you and me. And for the record, I know one. He goes to the same school I do, tryin' his best to be human. And he's way more human than most people I've known.

[noodlesnook]

"Mimicry, huh."

[Oggy123]

"You went to school with one?"

[KungFuCutbug]

[The colorful couple have already retreated to their cabin and have spent the past however-long-it's-been setting things up. Now sufficiently unpacked, and with Cherry sufficiently mentally adjusted to the crowd, the two head back to meet with everyone else to be met with a conversation about...]

"...Mermaids?"

"Those exist? I thought it was just some fairy tale made up by the Galarians after putting together some fossils incorrectly!" [Cherry looks around a bit, eager to find out what spurred this conversation.] "Is there a mermaid here?"

[Mr. Lee Hammer]

Eh... not exactly. You ever heard the phrase "fish outta water"? Not tryin' to be funny here, but it fits the merman I know. He spent most of his life livin' in the ocean, and was pretty much alone after his parents abandoned him. Now he just came to live among the humans. He has human legs, but turn into fins when he gets in the water. He did make a deal with some kinda supernatural being though to get how he is. Though it came with a price...

[Caret]

"The merpeople I know don't have fins! They just have gills and are really good swimmers." Emilia is baffled at everyone not knowing what beastfolk iare. From her perspective, it's been ten years since magic was formally introduced to Earth, so why wouldn't they know what beastfolk were, or anything else about the elemental worlds for that matter?

"You see, beastfolk are pretty much just humans with a few animal traits here and there? For example, my wife's a sheepwoman! She has wool for hair, pointy, sheep-like ears, and a tail, but she's otherwise human. You know those catgirls that show up in anime? They're beastfolk, too."

[Oggy123]

"Oooh." Gooble remarked. "Say, who are you?" he asks Emilia.

[Caret]

"Me? I'm a changeling. I'm a faerie who can shapeshift! Tiny 4'7" me is my true form, but if I put a lot of thought into becoming something else, then miracles can happen!"

Emilia closes her eyes and takes a deep breath. Suddenly, she becomes a blob of colorful goop, which rapidly resizes and reshapes itself. Within a few seconds, there is now a mouse where Emilia was once standing. The mouse turns back into Emilia a few seconds later.

"Ta-da!"

[Oggy123]

"Oh, hey! You could do that too! My name's Gooble, and i can be anything i wanna be as well!"

[Zanreo]

Then, the blue-haired woman walks up to the others. "Guess it's time for introductions... just call me, uh, the Bootlegger."

[TenOfSwords13]

Hello fellow huma-

The person takes a quick look at the group.

er... sentient lifeforms! My name is Jimothy A. Realman, and I am excited to be here! How about that weather, huh?

[noodlesnook]

"Nophamanni Sae-Hau, courtesy name Ziyong."
A pause.
"Though... 'Zee' is acceptable."

[PointMaid]

> Try to unlock the door with your key. That is in your wyvern hands. Yes I'm asking to roll for this because of her hands (or lack thereof GOTTEM)

Catar tries to unlock the door to her cabin. There is a lot of jiggling. ...The key just seems to keep slipping. She is no doubt annoyed.

[Mr. Lee Hammer]

Ya know, been waitin' here for a while. Do I have my reservation here or not? Everyone's been cooin' away at that weird Jell-o, staff ignored me. My name's Mindy Mercedes Mindy asserted herself, angry over the staff's lack of attentiveness.

[Oggy123]

Gooble then asks "Do you have something to eat? I'm hungry."

[PointMaid]

Mercedes, Mindy? Yeah, you're on my list too. Sorry, might not've heard you, a lot of people checking in.

Then Ed turns to Gooble. There's a vending machine in the corner. Or if you can wait a bit, we'll have our usual cookout.

[Oggy123]

"Well, i'll try the cookout!" Gooble then transforms into a smaller, blob-like form. Gooble waves at the others and leaves for Gooble's cabin.

[TenOfSwords13]

Hello, fellow human... Ed, was it? A fine human name! I'd like to check in - my name is definitely Jimothy A. Realman!

He seems enthusiastic about this whole thing.

[Dookie]

“Well…I'm Victoria Wilson. You might've heard of my last name before. My parents are pretty famous…but I prefer not to be.”

”Cookout? That sounds great! What will we be having? Some fresh food from the Oregonian….Washingtonian…Upper Pacific wilderness?”

[Zanreo]

"Cookout? Sounds great, I'm getting kinda hungry!"

[awe921]

Catar tries to unlock the door to her cabin. There is a lot of jiggling. ...The key just seems to keep slipping. She is no doubt annoyed.

Curses.

Catar makes a lot of annoyed grumbles as she fiddles more and more with the keys. Ughhhhh...

> Work smarter, not harder. Hold the keys with your mouth and attempt to insert the key that way.
