eggster service & egg hunt

[wiztrict]

happy eggster!

what's up?

Today is a very special day. While humans celebrate Easter, the fowl of Henhurst's flock are celebrating Eggster: a most holy day when a half-human, half-chicken prophet named Gallus (that's Chicken Jesus' name, as it turns out) unified both sides by sharing the bounty of eggs he had miraculously produced. Or, at least, that's what some residents might be able to glean from the Eggster pamphlet they were handed before the service. It's written in Chicken Scratch, but there are illustrations inside depicting the Story of Eggster.

There are quite a few people and chickens that residents have never seen before gathered here today to pay their respects. (The humans, though, seem more interested in seeing the miraculous weeping statue of Gallus for themselves.)

Father Peck leads a very somber sermon and ends the service with a heartfelt rendition of Avian Maria. Communion is given in the form of one raw egg: line up before Father Peck with egg in hand so that he may crack open the top of the shell and ye may partake in its Yolky Goodness.

After examining their conscience and telling Gallus of their sorrow, congregants may go into the confessional to have a heart-to-heart with Sister Dulcinea so that she may judge the weight of their sins.

Brunch is served, but it's chicken feed based. Not that that'd ever stop most of the residents here from partaking in a feast.

The egg hunt takes place at noon. A few of the eggs have special prizes inside, and the person who collects the most eggs is crowned Hen Excellency. Sian Fletcher, if she participates, finds fifty galleons in the very first egg she cracks open. (How did that even fit inside?)

locations!

⬦ THE CHURCH: Sermon, hymns, communion, feed brunch, selfies with the weeping Gallus statue... all the magic happens here!

⬦ THE CONFESSION BOOTH: Have something to confess? Slip into the confessional -- which has a divider that looks an awful lot like chicken wire-- and confide in Sister Dulcinea (a Miracle Chicken born of an unfertilized egg). She'll tell you how many Hen Mary's your penance will be by writing it on a piece of paper in her best Chicken Scratch. Of course, humans and chickens have very different ideas about what sins are, but she'll try to do her best!
Characters who RNG the most and fewest Hen Mary’s will win a “prize." (This section is run by Ben! Thank you, Ben!)

⬦ THE EGG HUNT: The Egg Hunt takes place on all floors of Henhurst, including the garden and outside the building within the bounds of the property line. Some of the eggs contain prizes inside, but most of them just contain yolk. The only way to find out is to crack 'em open!

The person who collects the most eggs is crowned Hen Excellency. How far are they willing to go to win the title?

⬦ ELSEWHERE: Catch-all for other scenes that don't really fit into the other categories.

⬦ OOC - QUESTIONS, COMMENTS, CONCERNS!

SISTER DULCINEA'S CONFESSION BOOTH: Molly

[zeropercentfresh]

Character Name: Molly Weasley
Confession: She's been stuffing trash under the seats in the dining area at Flavourtown. She's stolen about five -- no, wait, seven -- of her sister's sweaters since they got here and has been charming them together into a stylish, eccentric DIY blanket.
Honesty: Like an even 5. She's almost certainly sinned more than this, but is not self-aware enough to realize it.
Fear of (Chicken) God: 1. No gods or chickens only man.
Hard Boiled Eggs: Asking gran to make them for her.
DEVIL'ed Eggs: You KNOW she does.
Privacy: Chaos.

Sister Dulcinea takes no issue with the trash stuffing. That's just a fancy way of saying "nesting," and there's nothing wrong with that. Stealing sweaters on the other hand, that she takes issue with. In her mind, it's tantamount to feathering. And there's almost no coming back from feathering, even if you turn those feathers into a stylish, eccentric DIY down comforter. She tells Molly to do 108 Hail Mary's and prays for the young woman's soul as soon as she leaves the booth. Gallus save her.

Oof, Molly tries to get started on that but loses count after 4.

SISTER DULCINEA'S CONFESSION BOOTH: Aster

[asterroid]

Character Name:Aster Parkinson
Confession: Took the lord's species name in vain 3 times. Disrespected her holy father Gallus by imagining him human 1+ time. Watched that scene in willy wonka where the chicken's head gets cut off without blinking. Endangered her health by not eating enough egg protein.
Honesty: Like...8 in that these are true but they're not real sins they're just the closest to chicken sins she could think of.
Fear of (Chicken) God: 1 you cannot fear a god when you hold his secrets
Hard Boiled Eggs: Do slices off the big egg tube that Meat Sweats inevitably utilizes for salads.
DEVIL'ed Eggs: While making eye contact with the good sister, sideways
Privacy:Big Chaos

Oh no, the Devil has gotten to this one. Sister Dulcinea knows this to be true even before Aster eats the egg that bears his name. A chill goes down her feathered spine as Aster recounts her numerous sins, each worse than the last. Sister Dulcinea tells Aster to do 96 Hen Mary's and gives her a £25 gift certificate to Denny's. She writes out that it should be enough for the "All American Slam" and an eggs benny. Let Heather know Sister Dulcinea sent you. Get some egg protein, child!

And Aster wept.
On cue for like a second to make a show of gratitude for her absolution, and then it’s Denny’s time.

SISTER DULCINEA'S CONFESSION BOOTH: Lorcan

[fursuiter]

Character Name: Lorcan Scamander
Confession:

Disloyal to his opossum-ordained spouse.

Habitual sodomite and hedonist.

Thought it was funny when the Doxy tried to attack Albus.

Craves the meat of chicken.

Has lusted after someone in a relationship.

Drinks directly from the milk jug and puts it back in the fridge.

Sprinkles his nail trimmings and shed hair into his potted plants to help them grow, and also because it makes him feel more connected to the plant if it has a little piece of him in it.
Honesty: 10
Fear of (Chicken) God: 3. Just superstitious enough to have a healthy respect for unknown entities.
Hard Boiled Eggs: Put eggs in pot of water, bring water to a boil, take pot off fire once boiled with the intention of taking them out in five minutes. It's never five minutes; either he forgets about them and leaves them sitting there for hours, or he gets impatient and fishes them out of the boiling water to eat them.
DEVIL'ed Eggs: No, this is obviously a Test.
Privacy: Chaos!!

Sister Dulcinea listens to Lorcan's sins, bobbing her head. She too craves the meat of chicken from time to time (*cough* Father Peck *cough*), but alas, she made a vow when she joined the Chicken Church... Drinking from a milk jug and then returning it, though? That's a no-no. If someone successfully opens a milk jug, it should be left out for others to enjoy, not returned to a fridge, behind a magnetized door and a cap that requires thumbs to twist off. All can be forgiven though, if Lorcan does 21 Hen Mary's.

SISTER DULCINEA'S CONFESSION BOOTH: Corrie

[corriespondence]

Character Name: Corrie Pye
Confession: She eats eggs with ketchup or maple syrup, sometimes both. She's never told her family about any relationship she's had. She eats bacon specifically to piss off her sister. She snogged someone famous for the photo op.
Honesty: 1. Chickens ain't hearing none of her business, she is 100% confessing to things other people do.
Fear of (Chicken) God: 2
Hard Boiled Eggs: Put eggs on burner. Leave them there until she remembers they exist.
DEVIL'ed Eggs: Gross, no. Who knows how long it's been there?
Privacy: Chaos

SISTER DULCINEA'S CONFESSION BOOTH: Corrie

[hugogogadget]

In the interest of complete honesty -- this is a confessional after all -- Sister Dulcinea doesn't hear all of young Corrie's sins. She's preoccupied with this sweetsavory eggs, ketchup, and maple syrup combination. Her mind wanders to Dennys and whether or not this Eggster service will end in time for her to get across town and get a booth before the senior citizen rush around 3:30. By the time Sister Dulcinea is paying attention again, Corrie's confession is over. She writes down a completely arbitrary 6 Hen Mary's and passes the paper to Corrie. Now move it along, someone has a date with some eggs.
