[Mingle] Don't walk across a graveyard at night (you'll trip and fall)

Date: 18.9.19
Characters: OPEN


The local radio station is the first to spread it widely, but of course the news have already made the rounds around Moss Manor itself by the time they become official. Village gossip and all that.

And quite some news they are: The graveyard has been closed! Fences and tape have gone up, and if you stand on tiptoes and know where to stand and where to look, you can see the most visible reason for why that is: A sinkhole has opened near the centre of the graveyard, taking down two graves with a third tombstone balancing precariously at the rim of the sunk area. Luckily it hit the more historic part of the graveyard that has no recent burials in it, so it will be less emotionally impactful than what happened at Halloween last year, but it is still a dangerous development and has the vicar in a very unhappy situation.

Partly because there's press in the house yet again.

Press that is also bouncing around the whole Mossgate area trying to interview people in hopes of finding someone who will be hysteric about the situation. Or at least dramatically worried.

Most of Moss Manor's residents are unhelpfully calm, at least towards outsiders... but many are secretly treading very carefully and eyeing the ground closely wherever they walk. What, after all, if more sinkholes show up?

"Oh that is lovely," Lucas sighs, as his fingers brush the fur. Such fascinating texture. He could just touch it all day.

In fact, perhaps he shall. Where Lucas's touch had been light, it now shifts suddenly as he attempts to grip the mouse in his fist.

(Later, when Lucas isn't high as a kite, this entire sequence of events is going to mortify him. Playing with a mouse, really? Who knows where the dirty little rodent has been!)

The mouse escapes with the most angry of squeaks, slipping away and running up his arm, and then onto his head, sniffing at his ear before climbing up through his hair.

"No no no no no!" Lucas says, the nos practically running together at the speed at which he says them. "Not the hair, not the hair...!"

And then he's going to scrambling wildly at his head with his hands, trying to get the bloody little rodent off.

There is even more angry protesting squeaks, and then the mouse JUMPS, trying to leap back into the back of the sofa.
