Star Sawyer's Island

Who: Star and YOU
What: Star takes over Tom Sawyer Island
Where: gee idk
When: right now
Warnings: Glitter



[Star didn't completely hate her job as a pirate performer, it gave her an excuse to harass the robot denizens of Progress City after all. It also gave her an excuse to explore the park via climbing all over everything. So it's no big surprise that eventually she discovers Tom Sawyer Island.]

Where the HECK has this been the whole time!?

[...Then she remembers that she's still on the clock] Uh... arrr!

A: Dead Men Tell No Tales

[And then she's nowhere to be found. There is, however, talk of a mysterious figure haunting Dead Man's Grotto near the entrance of the island. You know, in addition to the regular creepy flair and animatronic pirate skulls. Guests are hesitant to venture near the place, which isn't great for business. Maybe you've been sent to check out why people are avoiding it, or maybe you're just curious. Either way, dare you enter the spoooooooky haunted pirate cave?]

B: Fort LangUnihorn

[Okay, that's enough screwing around in the cave, because Star just found an honest to god FORTRESS. This is her home now. Within the day, a banner is tossed over the Fort Langhorn sign, proclaiming that it is now Fort UNIHORN in bright, glittery letters, and underneath that in smaller letters: GHOSTS KEEP OUT. The crates of ammo scattered around the place are fake, but that's fine- the canons could be re-purposed into functional weaponry with some work. All entrances except the front are closed off, and if you approach, you're greeted by a yell from the top of the wall.]

Ahoy there, landlubber! State yer business!

[She's pointing a canon at you.]

[hm. don't trust like that. luckily he knows that the best way to deal with threats is to mock them.]

Alright. Okay. I see how it is. Think you're so superior just 'cause you can walk through walls.

[he is. absolutely not above talking to cave walls.]

It's just smoke and mirrors, Laredo! Everybody knows that! You ain't foolin' anybody!

Intruder? I work here!

[Well. Not this area in particular. Just... in Frontierland, generally speaking. But he can conveniently leave that detail out.]

Dead folks always do their research before they go around haunting a place. I ain't buyin' it.

[He stops for a couple seconds to genuinely consider it before shaking his head.]

Not really?

[Upon consideration, it's not entirely surprising that a kid was behind this.]

Y'know, the whole footsteps thing almost had me. But I don't think ghosts quite talk like that, Laredo.

[...Well he wouldn't really know but. Even if it was accurate it wasn't particularly scary.]
