You somehow obtained the letter from Professor Thorn addressed to you personally. Here is what it said:

Quote:
Dear Renard,

I am quite pleased, and I hope this letter gets to you soon. I am in need of your assistance. I know this may be a bit...well, random, but I need you to find me an item. This item is extremely out of the ordinary, but I hope that you would find the time to find it, and return it to me immediately.

The item I am trying to acquire is a rice ball. I know, this item can become moldy after a few days, that is why this should be a top priority. I need this rice ball for something special. I promise you a reward if you bring it to me promptly. Thank you for your time.

-Professor Thaddias Thorn


Now, the question is, will you do what the letter says?

((What I need you to do is write up how you obtained the letter. The growth requirements can be found in the Welcome thread on the main forum or in the main thread. It can be done in however many posts you want. Also, I need a personalized journal entry from your guardian expressing their personal feelings on the deed needing to be done.))

The day hadn't been particularly anything. Mediocre, or draub, or utterly and mind-numbingly boring, if he had to find a word, but even then, it wasn't as boring as some. It was just a day, all in all, not anything to get yourself all worked up over.

Coming home, Rennie had grabbed the fistful of letters from the tiny mailboxes that lined the front entrance of the apartment block, going through them a little lazily as he climbed the steps, more out of routine than any true interest. Bill, bill, flyer, bill, coupon booklet-- it looked as if he hadn't remembered to check it the day before, judging by how many he held. Unlocking the door to his own apartment was a bit of work with his hands so full, but he managed it in the end, even if he had to bite onto the letters to keep them from falling everywhere while he searched one pocket and then the other. No keys. Ended up finding them in the break-pocket of his jacket, not where he usually put them, although thinking back he could remember doing it. Weird.

Once he was in and his keys were tossed onto the mantle next to the door, he was back to flipping through the letters. One in particular stood out, too thick and in a non-business envelope. How'd he miss that, first time around? He was already picking at the red wax seal with a fingernail, flaking it off to fall on the ground like bloody snow. Finally he got it open, and the letter inside was just as interesting.

In the process of opening it up, Renard had made his way over to the sofa, plunking down heavily and leaning back to stretch his long legs out in front of him before giving up and raising them to brace against the small coffee table. While he was reading the note inside, he was chewing on his lip rather hard, making good work out of it as he thought about what it could mean. Maybe it was that Viral Advertising, although that should probably be an e-mail, or something. They're doing it wrong.

Tossing it onto the seat beside him, he gave it a rather suspicious look out the corner of his eyes, raising a hand now to nibble on his nails. They were already torn down low, fingertips showing well beyond the end, and a few were even red from being ripped off too short.

Well. He was hungry anyway, and sushi sounded just as good as anything, he guessed.

Anonymous Letters And Cheap Sushi

[ mood | curious ]
[ music | it's raining really loud against the roof right now]


So like, today I came home from work a little late (nothing interesting to report there), and what did I find but a kinda creepy letter, all addressed to me. I can't find it right now, I think I sat on it or something, but basically it was all, 'Hey Rennie, go get me supper', and I was all, well okay. Only cause I'm hungry too, though, you know? I mean, it's kinda all dark and mysterious and ladies totally dig dark and mysterious, just like how they dig leather jackets. I can't find my leather jacket right now, so I'm still in my parka, but that's cool. My a*****e of a landlord hasn't turned on the radiators yet but I'm freezing my tail off in here, so I'm just going to keep it on.

Right, the letter. So, like, it wanted a rice ball, right? I'm not sure if I said that. It did. There's this awesome little sushi place around the corner that's all you can eat and they have amazing ninisnaldinnggri or whatever, the eel, so I was all, well I'll just go there and grab me stuff and bring a riceball home with me. So I got it all and got some rice balls but I ate them all because I was distracted so I had to get more, yeah. In the end I finally took some home and it wasn't very cool. They were all pissed because you're not supposed to take anything home from the buffet so I got all pissed back at them so I had to stuff the riceball in my pocket but first I used more of that seeweed stuff to wrap it up so it didn't get any fuzz. It's kinda misshapen now. Oh well. It's in the fridge now because I'm super lazy and it's kinda gross outside now, I only JUST made it in before it started raining, so like, I'm totally not going outside again. I'll deal with it tomorrow, I guess. They'll be cool in the fridge, right?

You awake the next morning, awaiting your reward that was spoken of the night before with Professor Thorn in the lobby. You wonder what it could be. Once you think you've had about enough of waiting, you hear a knock on the door. You jump up to see what could be awaiting on the other side.

You open up the door, and find a basket. What? As you look inside the basket you find a gorgeous baby girl wrapped in cloths. What could this be? Well, this is your reward! You find a note attached to the top of the basket handle. It reads:

Dear Renard,

It looks as if you have been a patient lad. You have waited for quite some time. Well, I'm here to tell you the wait is all over! Your reward, for bringing me this rice ball, is this child here. Please, have fun with him! He's alive, breathing. I know you're a bit young, but please, have fun with him. Take care of him. He is your child now. I know this is a bit sudden and very random, but it's important to get your parenting skills early in life, right? Well, I can't write anymore, but if you have any questions, feel free to stop by anytime!

-Professor Thaddias Thorn


Well, what a surprise! A boy!? That's the reward!? If you do have any questions, just go down to the lobby/lab and ask away! Have fun with your new baby boy!
