☯ ONE. ( VIDEO, UNLOCKED. + action for caer glaem! )

[sangilak]

[ let's play a game, bilbo said. it'll be fun, bilbo said. don't use naga, your dog is a crutch. YEAH WELL YOU KNOW WHAT.

korra would've totally won within minutes if she'd been able to use her best friend for help, but pride wouldn't let her.

but now here she is, about three days later, visibly frustrated but letting it only last for a few seconds, perking up when she finally gets the locket to work. ]

Hey, who wants to help me play a game! [ despite her broad grin, this game is super not physically demanding. really!! ] See, I lost someone, and for the past three days I've been trying to find him, but, heh, I guess he's a better hider than I thought.

[ behind her, the giant polar beardog lets out a sigh, her tail thumping lazily on the floor. ]

What? [ korra turns to face the massive animal, who picks her head up, letting out a half-bark. ] Naga, you know the rules. I can't ask you for help, but Bilbo didn't say I couldn't ask everyone else...

[ naga just fixes korra with a look that says "you're doing it again" before placing her chin on her paws. ]

... Yeah, well, no one asked you. [ and so korra turns back to the locket, still pushing a grin. ] If you wanna help me find him, he's about—um... [ she lifts a hand to her stomach... lower... hip... ah... fuck it!! ] He's really short and he's got this curly hair and really hairy feet. He kinda... looks? like a kid? But don't call him that because he's really a grumpy old man and he's kinda sensitive about that.

[ and with that, korra nods once and ends the feed!! she and naga are going to be around everywhere in the castle looking for bilbo, so if you'd like to action in this post, go right ahead!! ]

Are you... crowdsourcing hide and seek? [ Is he trying not to laugh? It sounds like it. ]

[ LAUGH ALL YOU WANT, it's a good distraction from everything else that's going on right now. ]

Maybe? [ ... ] What's crowdsourcing?

[ korra. ]

[ringwizard]

Outsourcing to groups of people. [ A beat. ] You know, getting them to do the work for you.

[ In this case, cheating. ]

What happens if someone else finds him before you do?

[sangilak]

[ BILBO CHEATED FIRST!!

that's her story and she's sticking to it. ]

Hey, I'm not getting anyone to do the work for me! [ KORRA. ] The point is to work together. And if someone finds him before I do, then they can just bring him to me and ... get a reward!

[ korra you made that up on the spot didn't you. ]

[ringwizard]

Well, if it isn't any better than what he's offering, you might be out of luck. [ mercenary? him? never. ]

[ ... shit, she can't cook, and mako's asleep right now oh no what can she offer ]

[sangilak]

I can let you ride on Naga?

[ look at that giant puppydog. ]

threadjack...

[somethingprecious]

You'll get the same thing I promised to Korra if she wins.

And what, exactly, would that be? [ He shifts to lean forward toward the locket. This is all kind of an idle hypothetical, but it's something to do. ]

[somethingprecious]

Dinner. I love to cook and bake all sorts of things and if I may say my cooking is very enjoyable. [He smiles.] It isn't much, only a comfort from home. I'm afraid I don't have much to offer beyond that.

[ringwizard]

I don't know, I think I could make that work. [ He smiles back. ] I mean, I've never been one to turn down home-style cooking.
