[ JOB LISTING ] Treatment Center [ DIFFICULTY LEVEL ] gaia_stargaia_star [ TASK ] Aid spa specialists in their innovative treatments by helping handle and feed the wholly organic swarms of healthful helpers provided by nature in all its mystery. (Warning : Insect & Worm Prompts)
Quote:
The human staff has gone tragically missing, but all new ventures are bound for a few hiccups. The treatment keepers have taken to pulling in any idle horsemen found at the spa or even in the Dusk to come spend a shift helping feed and care for the spa's special swarms of cultivated insects and unusual plant life.
Roll 2d6 and complete the 2 prompts You're set to supervise a tank full of leeches. It's an incredibly boring job until the leeches begin to grow. And grow. And grow until they're the size of a fat man's leg. The tank breaks. They're surprisingly fast and wily for leeches and it's up to you to catch and corral them all. Roll 1d10 until you succeed by getting a 6 or higher. The Moth Room needs cleaning and it's not a very glorious or interesting job until you start to hallucinate and the walls begin to melt. The Music Room allows you to enjoy a peaceful shift feeding its inhabitants as they are trained in their next composition. The tapeworms need to be taken for discreet walkies. This process involves placing leashes and collars on tapeworms and then walking them around, whispering encouragements to help motivate them to be their best wormselves. Roll 1d10 until you succeed three times by getting a 3 or higher. The Nagev Garden is full of helpful plants that wont just melt away fat but also clean the bones underneath as well with an enthusiastic efficiency! Feeding them is a pleasure if you life watching meat get torn apart and some of the plants will even let you pet them after. Roll 1d4 to determine how many fingers you lose during this shift. (Don't worry, they'll grow back by tomorrow.) The maggot farm has gone missing and the spa needs your help in finding out where it's gone off to. Was it stolen? Did their Fear Makeup get altered in an experiment, transforming them into something new? Did something eat the whole thing? You don't have to roll for success, you just have to tell a story to the shift supervisor.

The Famine Horseman that was Tessa entered the job site with ease, admiring the rooms curiously before being set to a task.
She was sent to the maggot room, told to watch it carefully because they were tricksy little buggers.
CHARACTER: Tessa CLAN: Famine META JOURNAL ARCANA: Star BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF MY CHARACTER: Stoic most of the time, but with a heart of gold. Has green hair that usually blocks her vision, and has recently found a love for hair ties and barrettes. Has an unusual fascination with collecting various sizes and styles of clothing.
Unfortunately, when she stepped in, she realized that they were all hiding.
And not only that... most everything was GONE.
Was this a game of hide and seek or what?!
It took her a good portion of the morning to actually find most of them, but even then, she couldn't find them all.
So she had to explain this to her manager, who nodded and grunted with understanding.
Far too much understanding. Like he'd been there before...

Happy that she had had a manager that understood, the second part of her day left her with walking happy leeches on leashes, and she attached the tiny collars to them and... took them on walkies.
This was rather fun, for sure.

One of the leeches ended up slipping out of its collar and wriggling around, crying, until she came to reattach the collar and make it happy and less lonely again.
Apparently they got lost if they slid out of their collars.

It took a while to actually walk leeches, and for every one step Vania took, they wriggled along for a good five to ten seconds.
No wonder they needed someone. This took forever.

Making sure they had their exercise for the day, Vania took the leeches back to their enclosure and made sure they were safe and locked up, hung up the leashes... and went to collect her pay for the day.
