[open] Step one: stop lying.
Who: Kaphlar Kinra and you!
What: Lying, questing and shenanigans.
When: (waves hands vaguely) August
Where: Around the village (+ one bonus journal post)
Warnings: Kaph is an asshole. Will edit as needed.
A. Failed step one
[Not long after last month's feast, a nonchalantly-penned message appears on everyone's journals.]
I'm sorry to say that, thanks to a spell placed on me, I'll only be able to talk to lovely ladies for the near future, and not guys. [And then there's a sloppy drawing of a face crying a single tear.] Face to face, I mean. As you can see, I can still write just fine!
Anyway, now you know. Sorry if I end up giving you the cold shoulder on the street, yeah, guys? Nothing I can do about it!
[Heterosexuality secured.]
B. Continued failure
[Hahaha, a yodeling cow, he said. How hard could it be, he said. Fuck whatever past Kaph said to himself.
He was quick to formulate a plan, but being unable to buy resources just for this - he doesn't want to think of how he might be able to go to a shop and ask for a gag with the curse he's under, let alone how easily the sentence "Yeah, buddy, I need a gag for this cow" could be misinterpreted - Kaph just brought some of the shittier blankets from his room. Mostly the ones that were already dirty and he didn't feel like putting through the laundry. You'll be put to a good use, shitty blankets.
As it turns out, he forgot how big cows are, as well as how strong, especially when compared to him.
Currently, he can be found either:
- mounting the cow as she tries to shake him off, holding on to dear life by nothing but the blankets he's tried tying around her mouth;
- still holding on to those goddamn blankets, but this time he's tried stuffing them into the cow's mouth and now he's just being dragged across the ground;
- or tangled up on the stupid goddamn filthy blankets while the cow peacefully munches on some grass a few feet away.
In any case, all he can do is grunt and scream wordlessly.]
C. A way with words
[Hey, you know what's way easier and less painful than being trampled by a stinky cow? Writing euphemisms. Right now, Kaph is sitting on some stone steps in a livelier part of the village, letting himself be inspired by what he sees - he looks at a girl passing by, sees what comes to mind, and writes it down if it seems like Pure Gold, which, as far as he's concerned, is what all his words are.
"I'd stick my bread in her oven."
"I'd let her churn my butter."
"Her juice and my batter..."
... No, that one might be too much. Also, is he hungry or something?? Oh shit, nice tits at 12 o' clock.
"Let me have a taste of that good fruit,babe"
He makes a note on a different scrap of paper: "Look up local harvest goddess or whatever."
Whenever a man passes by, particularly an attractive one? He averts his eyes and focuses on what he's written, perhaps a bit too intently.]

... Okay, he was trying to tell Egon something, though, so he'd better see if he can get the message across.
First, he gestures to the several sheets of paper he's holding, wiggling his quill. Then he sets it all on his lap and holds his hands flat against each side of his head before sliding them forward.
CLARITY.]
no subject
You still can't speak, can you?
no subject
Then he points at Egon, lifts that finger, spins it around and points somewhere else far away.]
no subject
You know I can probably help you.

no subject
[The doctor adds finger quotes for emphasis, looking down at Kaph.]
A throat exam and a chat with the owner of the apothecary could clear it up.
no subject
It's magic, you moron.]
no subject
[This is one of the few things that Dr. Egon Spengler will always be extremely smarmy about, kaph. Do you want help or not?]
no subject
no subject
[Forget his potions. Egon waves Kaph to get up and follow him towards the ugly little mud hut he lives in.]
So what lets you speak?
no subject
Kaph writes his answer on his spare scrap of paper, then hands it to Egon, pointing out the spot where he wrote it: "Seducing beautiful women."]
no subject
[Egon hands the scrap back after giving it a cursory glance. Beauty was relative, any of the women in this village could be beautiful, depending on who you are. But, he does want to yank Kaph's chain a little bit.]
Take a seat when we get inside.
no subject
Anyway, he doesn't need to be told twice - as soon as they arrive, Kaph takes the best available seat. Not that that means much in this shithole.]
no subject
[He won't argue that it's a nice house. It's terrible, even with how Egon tries to keep it clean. There's the dirt floor, the specimen jars- a few possibly suspicious little spatters of blood.]
[The doctor rinses his hands quickly in a washbasin with some soap before unrolling his tool kit on the table and withdrawing a long, thin mirror.]
Do you have a sensitive gag reflex?
no subject
... Kneejerk as it is, he blurts it out instead of writing it. It's only barely audible:]
I don't know, I don't suck dicks. How about you?
no subject
I wouldn't consider myself a pretty woman, Mr. Kaphlar.
But my private life, I think, is included in Doctor patient confidentiality.
no subject
In response, he abruptly stands up again and tries to grab Egon by the collar. Even though this is entirely his own fault. A model of maturity, this guy.]
no subject
...Let me go, if you want my help.
no subject
... He puts him down, but then proceeds to make the universal gesture for "My eyes are on you, motherfucker, and if you get funny with me again I will not hesitate to break your kneecaps."]
