Save the Chocobos

Who: Everyone that signed up for the UFO stakeout
Where: Aqures Ixen, Chocobo Ranch area
When: February 19th-20th, nighttime
Summary: The Heroes of Light hide out at the ranch and wait for the mysterious animal kidnappers to appear.
Warnings: Three comment starters. Final thread will be locked until the end of the stakeout.

[The excitement of Valentoine's Day has passed, and with more news about the UFOs, Duster brings his focus back to the planned stakeout. The night was chillier than any midnight stroll he experienced in Tazmily, and he wears a thick coat that only covered his body above the waist. He pulls his brown hat's earflaps down to better keep the warmth in.

The inside of the stable is warmer, but not by much. It's not much of a savior to Duster, who remains outside, keeping watch as long as he's awake. Staying up late is easy; all it took was fixing his sleep schedule the past few days to his old night owl tendencies.

He takes a seat on a pile of hay by the tables and waits.

((OOC: Welcome to the final UFO Stakeout log! You can still talk with NPCs during the mingle thread, and you are welcome to put up your own starters under the main event thread. The final phase of this event, however, will be a single thread))

"You think he can pass as a tree?" wondered Erika as Coffret wiped the spit from his ears.

"Perhaps... a really fluffy bush maybe," said Kuplo Kopp.

"Or a log." groused Coffret.

"KWeh?"

What was up with these suggestions? Did he really look like a log? The tree made a little more sense though. Giving a loud trilling "Kweh!", Zack flapped his wings and ruffled his plumage. He stretched his legs and stood as tall as he could.

He could only hold the pose for a few seconds.

"That's a pretty good tree impression!" Exclaimed Erika happily. "What do you two think?"

"Eh, it's good," said Coffret and Kuplo Kopp nodded. "We need branches now."

Zack quirked his head at the comment. Branches huh? There weren't that many trees nearby but he'd see what he could do.

The chocobo trotted off, returning a few moments later with some anemic looking branches clutched in his beak.

"That works!" Exclaimed Kuplo Kopp cheerfully. "I think if we strap it onto his wings he could stand still!"

"I guess so," chorused Erika and Coffret in agreement.

Zack won't protest if they try to dress him up like a tree.

Convincing him to stand still for an extended amount of time might be a bit harder though.

Attaching the anemic looking branches to Zack, Erika saluted. "Yosha! Lets do this! There's got to be some alien out there we can hide from and pounce on!"
