The Cereal Box:Log/Session 57
Session 57
The motley rallied at their home and got some sleep, suddenly reminded that the World's Largest Breakfast Table was tomorrow and, furthermore that Billy could not possibly be in attendance.
Sephie had a memory dream of killing her fetch.
Nikolai remembered being in the cavalry with Prince Kindehearted.
Alana dreamt of being a wild beast in the jungles of her homeland.
Ernie had a memory dream of Regina's experience and remembered the fairytale ending after her father's abuse and came to an understanding of why his sister wanted what she wanted.
Hestia dreamt a dream of her summer wedding with rows and rows of chairs and every changeling in the Cereal Box in attendance, with the crown surrendered to her willingly by Smith and Chalkos. The Collector offered Hestia the most perfect, beautiful moment, crafted by the Chronophage. Something blue: a blue jay. Something old: a locket containing a picture of her old husband and the blessing to move on.
Saturday, June 12th
Alana woke up everyone in the Motley who didn't wake up on their own and Hestia shared her dream with Alana, while Hestia tried to relax.
April suggested they "Weekend at Bernie's this whole thing."
Nikolai suggested that maybe Billy can just "wake up" for this important event. Also that maybe they can just say Billy couldn't make it. Also, Brian Henson "doesn't do that".
Ernie realized that he could fix the mirror and possibly wake him up.
Regina pointed out that she can change her appearance.
"No one better than a nurse to remove an Ivey (IV) from someone!" - Jacob
Ernie convinced Freddie and Aaron to delay their plan.
Sephie used Perfect Mending.
The party goes to Billy's. Freddie and Aaron are there. The party saw through Freddie's disguise almost immediately. He hooked up Alana and Nikolai up with hair of the dog (wine for Nikolai, actual magic for Alana).
Sephie used PERFECT MENDING to fix his heart.
They convinced Billy to make his offer contingent on denying all other loyalties.
They would have to leave just about now to make it on time.
The motley proceeded to the Breakfast Table, where the changelings of the Freehold has set up their area and are eating a sumptuous breakfast.
Craig Weston, Roper and many others were present. Ernie mingles with the newbies in the Freehold while Sephie checked on Roper. Hestia promoted her restaurant.
Alana spoke with Smith, who became agitated that she hadn't "taken care of" Chalkos. Ultimately, he explained that "safe" places from the Freehold are not "good" places.
Billy gave his speech, wherein he announced not only that the newcomers were now fully fledged members of the Freehold, but also that he would leave the Freehold at the start of Autumn and "sail to distant shores"
