I think I just had a heart-to-heart with Fern and Hazel's AUROR BOYFRIEND. [...] He seems like a pretty cool guy. Actually.

[...]

He said something sorta WEIRD before he took off, though. Like. That he's worried after that thing with Monet. And that he thinks it's crazy people are saying the Moose Men aren't dangerous. [...] Do you think Anon or Brother are the ones that hurt her? Cause that'd be MESSED UP, right?

maybe they attacked the moose guys first

Coppertale Jrs

[heathclifflacey]

Maybe. But Anon said the Aurors were just BOTHERING them, right? And the way Yaeger was talking about it [...] I don’t know, dude. It didn’t seem like that?

Coppertale Juniors

[ashworthless]

We know they’re not safe
We also know well enough to leave them alone. Maybe that’s the difference

Coppertale Juniors

[heathclifflacey]

Yeah. I guess we do. [...] You think Anon and Brother are just reaching their breaking point or whatever with the Aurors being in the woods all the time?

Coppertale Juniors

[nothalfplaid]

I probably would be. Maybe this is their way of shouting, "Get off our lawn!"

Coppertale Juniors

[lilwitchhazel]

[....]

I don't think they'd do that unless they felt threatened, but [...] we were really wrong last year about things.

Coppertale Juniors

[heathclifflacey]

Same. But [...] yeah. SUPER wrong.

So how the heck are we supposed to TELL?

Coppertale Juniors

[lilwitchhazel]

I've got no flipping clue. Maybe Yaeger will elaborate?

[...]

Also, what if the mimics can look like Anon or Brother? They can maybe look like freaky animals, right?

Coppertale Juniors

[heathclifflacey]

Should I ask him again? Once we started talking about it, he bailed.

[...] SHIT, dude. You think that’s possible? I mean. [...] Shit, dude.

Coppertale Juniors

[lilwitchhazel]

Yeah, or if Fern and I corner him we can ask, too. We need as much info as we can get.

[...]

I mean, maybe, right? We don't really know what they're capable of. And they're maybe getting stronger anyway, so even if they couldn't before, who knows now.

Coppertale Juniors

[heathclifflacey]

YEAH. Maybe it's worth a shot. I mean. He and Monet like you guys, right?

Lucas did say his jinx didn't work. So that'd sorta make sense. As much as ANY of this makes sense.

Coppertale Juniors

[lilwitchhazel]

Yeah, they seem to, anyway.

We've got, like, multiple accounts of shit not working now, right? So. We're maybe fucked. We need as much info as we can get.

Coppertale Juniors

[heathclifflacey]

Yeah. [...] HEY. At least you and Fern have been learning to BOX. Sorta. So maybe if a mimic messes with you, you can just PUNCH IT.

Coppertale Juniors

[nothalfplaid]

We are very scrappy.

Coppertale Juniors

[nothalfplaid]

We're very charming.

Agreed.

Coppertale Juniors

[quickbuck]

the moose guys are supposed to be PROTECTING us this year, right??

Coppertale Juniors

[heathclifflacey]

I think so? I mean, that’s what they keep saying. And they’ve definitely done us some solids this year. Like with the mimics and the wisps.

[...] But Anon wanted to ‘PROTECT’ us last year too, right?

Coppertale Juniors

[lilwitchhazel]

Yeah, I don't think they'd do stuff to be dicks, but I could see a repeat of incorrect methods of protecting going on.

Coppertale Juniors

[quickbuck]

yeah so. hear me out. maybe they think the aurors are trying to hurt us or something and they think they're just protecting us. anon compared them to the will-o-wisps

Coppertale Juniors

[lilwitchhazel]

Could be, but like [...] how were they going to hurt us in the woods? I feel like they wouldn't do that unless they thought it was an immediate danger sort of thing. Right? Maybe?

[...]

Maybe it's dangerous if the Aurors get whatever they're looking for?

Ughhhhhhh shit I have no idea, we could make up a million theories.

Coppertale Juniors

[quickbuck]

things get really bad if brother isn't around to be in charge, right? maybe they're like... try to catch him to do studies on him

Coppertale Juniors

[heathclifflacey]

But they KNOW it'll get bad without Brother, right? Why would they want to do that?

Coppertale Juniors

[nothalfplaid]

Do they?

Coppertale Juniors

[longcons]

Some sort of dichotomy is cementing here. It's hard to ascribe intention to either side.

Coppertale Juniors

[quickbuck]

what

Coppertale Juniors

[longcons]

Government v. Moose. It's an unexpected twist.

Coppertale Juniors

[ashworthless]

We could take bets.

Coppertale Juniors

[heathclifflacey]

[...] It sorta seems like they're BOTH trying to do the right thing and they're just SHIT at it.

Coppertale Juniors

[ashworthless]

Yeah.
But I wonder if all these people (and ancient woods gods) stopped trying to protect us, if we wouldn't need so much protecting.

Coppertale Juniors

[heathclifflacey]

Yeah.

There' still be the MIMICS, though. And anything else that's out there, I guess.

Coppertale Juniors

[nothalfplaid]

But who knows where they came from?

Coppertale Juniors

[nothalfplaid]

Good fucking point.

Coppertale Juniors

[nothalfplaid]

Government v. Moose v. Staff

Coppertale Juniors

[nothalfplaid]

Maybe the aurors are.

Coppertale Juniors

[nothalfplaid]

If we believe them.

Coppertale Juniors

[nothalfplaid]

We also don't know what the aurors are doing. Or what makes ancient moose men feel threatened.

Coppertale Jrs

[longcons]

[...] This is getting [...] interesting.

Coppertale Jrs

[heathclifflacey]

If that's what this is then interesting SUCKS, dude.

Coppertale Jrs

[nothalfplaid]

That is technically true.

Coppertale Jrs

[nothalfplaid]

Think I might dump him for Monet. Hazel can have Yaeger.

[...] Sounds that way.
