Billiam kicks at the spent seeds on the ground, but his grumbling falls away quickly.
"What? Is that Red the Rambunctious Tree Bunny?"he calls cheerfully and holds up his hands in a calming way. "A joke, you splendid specimen of a squirrel. Peppermint and I are having a grand old time! She ate cupcakes! I ate snacks! The fun is just beginning."
In a more serious tone he will add, "Say, you haven't by any chance seen anything odd tonight, have you? The place feels off tonight and we're trying to deduce why. Could be we're just not used to this side of the experience."
"Hey! Billy, you know I can't get mad with ya. But if you say so, I guess it takes one to know one... you know a rambunctious tree bunny, minus the tree..." Red happily went from Northwind's foliage to Billiam's shoulders. "anything Odd? nah...not around here, dragonfly stand has been busy everyone so far has been wearing their wings..." he pauses to take a look around (you may roll as well - perception - Red's: Perception 17)
Hazel jumps on one of the animals and starts flying. "Yeaaaaaah, this is nice. Come Yoli !Just let go with the fear !"
As Hazel's dragonfly takes off shouts of alarm erupt from a nearby lily pad. A giant dragonfly has just taken off prematurely with a patron on its back: a middle-aged dwarf with a bright blue beard sits unfastened in his harness.

Mysterious roll: 25
Hazel can see how the dwarf starts to panic and one of his hands directly grabs from the area between one set of wings from the dragonfly causing it to unexpectedly try to shake off the rider as they go higher. Northwind shouts an instruction to Hazel "Could you remind the dragonfly to relax?" Hazel's dragonfly doesn't seem affected by the conmotion and will continue with the flying pattern previously described by the treant.
((If Hazel would like to try to steer her dragonfly towards the other one roll Animal Handling DC 12 and then another one as you fly next to the wild dragonfly to try to calm it down DC 14)) ((If anyone else would like to try something else feel free to let me know))
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Hazel gives a thumb up to the giant tree, but struggles to stay stable on the giant insect. She can eat cupcakes...but riding dragonfly is something else. "Listen to me beautiful dragonfly. We need to go help the poor dwarf over there. Can you change your course ? Pretty Please ?" As she finishes the sentence, she gently try to direct the insect in the new direction.
Andrick looks on helplessly, then recalls something and quickly prepares to act if needed and attempts to move into position under the dwarf's dragonfly...
Andrick will cast Unseen Servant if the dwarf falls, attempting to use the servant to help slow his fall to reduce damage taken.
Peppermint watches the dwarf careen off and her face is caught halfway between an eye roll and a look of delight. She sneezes, and the look of delight overwhelms her, and she giggles.

ey/em/eirs, or they/them works, too (just not he). Role-playing since that keep on those borderlands. I love it so.

Animal Handling:1
Though Hazel pulls and try to steer the dragonfly in a different direction the ride follows a predetermine course. It rapidly flies further away from the scene and soon the dwarf having a good time is left behind, from where you are the looks of the carnival are even more astounding, from up there you see an elf stiltwalker handing sugary treats to children who pass by. You also get a closer look to visitors panicked and some amazed as they travel inside a bubble that drifts lazily also 20 ft from the ground.
The dwarf can't hold any longer and falls from the dragonfly the speed at which he falls hints a painful landing but a tent awning breaks his fall, he still bounces from there and screaming the dwarf continues his trajectory to the ground but that's where finally Andrick's unseens servant finally coushions the fall to a general amazement of visitor and hands that saw everything. It was clear that Andrick had something to do with that last moment as he played his drum and whispered some words before pointing at the dwarf's directon.
Billiam is thoroughly distracted by the display with the dwarf and the dragonfly.
"Well, if you see something, say something, won't you, Red?" and with a quick salute, the harengon will sidle over to Andrick. "Bravo, sir! A goodly catch."
"Well, that helps me make up my mind. I'm definitely not riding on one of those dragonflies." After things settle down a bit, Yoli approaches Northwind and asks, "does that sort of thing happen very often around here?"
Andrick sketches a brief bow in Billiam's direction. 'I did what I could, given the immediacy of the situation. Shall we go and speak with the dwarf, and find out what happened?'
With that he goes over to where Nuotrin is already assisting the dwarf. 'I'm glad I could be of assistance, sir. Are you well?' he says, sweeping a grand bow...
Fineon watches the dwarf’s situation with concern and as he falls and is cushioned by the awning a spark of an idea enters his brain. He will congratulate the dwarf on not being killed and write his inspiration into a crumbly note book he keeps on hand.
"Well, that helps me make up my mind. I'm definitely not riding on one of those dragonflies." After things settle down a bit, Yoli approaches Northwind and asks, "does that sort of thing happen very often around here?"
"Not at all, every dragonfly is dilligent with its work, they love it. Something or someone had something to do with this. We should speak with the rider, maybe he saw something or actually annoyed Richard (The dragonfly)" Says Northwind.

The Dwarf took several seconds to recover from the fall, his wings, now broken where dangling as he slowly stood up. "Thanks boy, yes..I'm fine. I swore I would hit the ground hard but luckily something got in the way"
Even though the dwarf wasn't hurt from the fall, the people waiting in line for the dragonfly ride decided to try a different atraction and the overall mood of the carnival seemed to go a bit darker.
‘I have the fortune to have some small arcane gifts, alongside my other talents, and I was able to intervene to help prevent serious injury - though the tent must also take some of the credit on that front! What happened at the start of the ride - why wasn’t your harness attached?’

"Hmmm. Well that is strange indeed then. Perhaps the best course would be to see if the dwarf noticed anything strange. Thank you for your time." Yoli then makes his way over to the dwarf, and once he finds that he's in a better way, addresses him thusly: "Excuse me good sir; I'm glad that you seem to have come out of that situation relatively unscathed. I'm sure it must have given you quite a fright. I wonder, once you've recovered your senses enough, if you could recall if you noticed any unusual or strange occurrence that might have spooked the dragonfly you were on?"

"Well, I do recall some whispers...I mean, it sounded like some distant whispers but were just some buzzing sounds nothing that would actually make sense. I was in the middle of securing myself to the ride so before I was done the insect just went crazy"
Hazel jumps on one of the animals and starts flying. "Yeaaaaaah, this is nice. Come Yoli !Just let go with the fear !"

"Well, if you see something, say something, won't you, Red?" and with a quick salute, the harengon will sidle over to Andrick. "Bravo, sir! A goodly catch."
Nuotrin, who had been looking helplessly at the scene above him in the sky, sighs in relief as the dwarf lands safely in the ground.
He runs over to the dwarf and offers a hand. "Are you ok?"
"Well, that helps me make up my mind. I'm definitely not riding on one of those dragonflies." After things settle down a bit, Yoli approaches Northwind and asks, "does that sort of thing happen very often around here?"
