    While Haster was trying to rest in a quiet spot xe discovered yesterday, xe overheard the two chicoons talking about xem.
    Xe never meant to hear their conversation, but xe felt a little bit frustrated after hearing it. After all, Haster is not a maintenance chicoon. Xe can't fix that ride in a day. Maybe xe should just go and tell the two chicoons that xe was not the one they'd contacted to fix the ride.
    ... Haster shook xyr head. "No. I'm not giving up just yet." Muttering to xemself, Haster made up his mind to go back and try to repair the ride. [105 words]

    Miles (the mascot) hummed suspiciously. Something about that seemed a little... Strange. He'd heard some of the rides might have gone down, but he didn't think all that much of it. After all, it happens sometimes. Guess the carnival was in bigger trouble than rumored.
    Rolling up his nonexistent sleeves, he snuck out back - looking for the tool box. He may not be a mechanic, but it can't be any worse than a loose bolt, right? How hard could this even be! He chirped optimistically, unaware that he was biting off more than he could chew. ...A lot more. Finding the so called "treasure" he set in the direction of the ride, of course.. he first had to find out which ride it was. Looking around he weaved his way through the entire carnival, looking at every ride to see if any of them had something broken.

i've decided to... continue my work but with a good friend to help!

    answer prompt here

| ~ Hershey rushed quickly on set of the broken ride ~ | "oh no oh no!!! I wasn't here yesterday! Oh how could I have forgotten?!" | ~ He moped about missing the second day, and therefore missing the work- he felt terrible! But sadly nothing could be done about it. He overheard the two chicoons talking and gave a slight frown ~ | "oh.. how encouraging...-" |-he spoke softly to himself as he sighed and grabbed the toolbox, slowly walking in the direction of the rides control panel when a familiar but loud voice called his name ~ | "?!" | ~ Hershey turned around and noticed his good friend Mikey, visiting the rides with his trusted companion. Mikey seemed to waste no time jumping over the bars of the enclosed the ride and walking over to Hershey ~ | *"you didn't tell me you got a job in fixing rides! Actually I didn't expect such a thing in general- not in a rude way of course!"* | ~ Mikey Exclaimed ~ | "oh- well- that's a story for later. Hey wait! You're good at fixing things!! Can you help me?! Please!!.. I don't know what I'm doing- at all..." | ~ Hershey said in a slightly eager voice. In return to Hershey's request, Mikey gave a soft smile. ~ | *"let's fix this thing!"* | ~ Hershey smiled brightly and gave him a swift hug before leading him off to show Mikey the current progress done in the control panel. Mikey took a good long look around before nodding ~ | *"these are basic ride controls fortunately! I think I can indeed be of some assistance. First off- a few of these wires are connected incorrectly"* | ~ Mikey said calmly, placing some of the wires in their correct connections. This actually got some of the lights in the control room to begin working, maybe the lights outside of the ride would work now too? ~ | "oh! That was fast- I would've never figured that out." | ~ Hershey said while looking around in Awe ~ | *"sometimes a helping hand is all you need to learn! Also, I have too much free time anyway. Fixing this ride is much more fun than that"* | ~ With more confidence, and the guidance of his friend, Hershey and Mikey worked hard on the ride. Even Mikey's little companion gave a helping hand ~ | *"I've adjusted a few gears, tightened some bolts and fixed alot of wiring. Some of the wires seemed tainted by a wet film? It was very odd.. unlike anything I'd ever seen before!. Try to turn the ride on and go see what happens, we've made significant progress, that's for sure."* | ~ Mikey Exclaimed his findings and progress before asking his question to Hershey. Hershey nodded and pressed a few buttons, scurrying outside to see the progress. After a few minutes Hershey came back in with excitement ~ | "the lights are working again! And the seat restraints are lifted up now. The ride isn't moving but you were right! At this rate the ride will be fixed in no time!" | ~ Hershey Explained with great joy. Mikey smiled at his enthusiasm, though looking outside of the control panel and sighing. ~ | *"I'm proud of our progress, but we can't stay in here the entire night!~ let's go enjoy the carnival a little bit and call it a day. We've been working since morning, and it's dark now."* | ~ Mikey said in a generous tone of voice, almost- shy? ~ | "oh, alright! Let's clean up and call it a day. " | ~ Hershey agreed to the offer and they both packed up, leaving the ride for today to enjoy the rest of the carnival. They'd be returning tomorrow, hoping for the best. ~ |

    Enter had invested herself entirely into the process of trying to rewire the power cords that helped the ride itself function. It was quite the taxxing process-- so much, in fact, that she hadn’t noticed that Ripsaw was no longer watching her until she went to go plug in the cord to the power outlet once again.

    It was then that she could hear the two talking quietly-- and she’d frown lightly. Was it wrong of her to not just come clean and tell them the truth about all of this? No, no. If the REAL mechanic hadn’t shown up by this point, odds were that they never would. Even if she was entirely underqualified for this job, she had been brought to do it and she had to try their best!

    Her best was, however, not currently cutting it. Her gaze shifted as she noticed that the amusement ride was, as it had since her arrival…not budged. With a wistful sigh, she’d unplug things once more and trot back over to the ride proper. What else could she exactly try here?? Clearly she was missing something vital when it came to the inner workings of theme park rides.

    Enter thought about this for a good, long while…before a thought crossed her mind. Of course! How could she have not thought of this sooner!? She could just go look at another ride that was already working at the carnival to try and figure out the difference between the two. She couldn’t believe that she didn’t think of it sooner, honestly.

    With that new idea in her head, she’d go to grab her bucket of tools and slip behind the maintenance area that was upheld for the carnival in search of another ride in the immediate area that could (hopefully) help her understand what had went wrong. She was a wee bit worried about leaving her ‘post’, let alone being noticed by the two Chicoons she was supposed to be helping…but she figured she could come up with an excuse for her absence if she truly needed it.

    She’d pause in front of one of the operational flat rides, pitter-pattering up with her trusty maintenance bucket in mouth. It wasn’t nearly as tall as the ride she was working on, she noted. There was no circular seating arrangement, there were no big beams holding it up… instead, a bunch of smaller seats connected to a single, rotating cylinder structure in the middle. She watched the ride move, each seat moving up and down connected by a metal beam to the center structure.

    It looked absolutely nothing like the ride she was working on currently aside from the pops of color and the fact she was pretty sure she’d have a ton of fun on it. However, fun was going to have to wait until she actually fixed the problem with the ride she had been voluntold to repair. She watched it run through its test a few more times in quiet before slipping back under the tarps and toward the run down ride.

    There had to be something she learned from watching that thing that might help her. If only she knew how this ride normally looked while moving! What might apply here? She paced back and forth, a few nuts and bolts spilling from her bucket as it jangled around in her mouth. It was this very thing that helped her, though, her gaze fixating on one of the bolts as it slowly rolled away from her paws.

    Maybe this thing spun like the ride she watched! With that new idea in mind, she’d carefully climb up onto the seating platform and approach the circular gondola.She’d squeeze her frame between the seats to get to the middle section and look upward! Hm. Well, it did seem to be all connected like one solid piece to this metal rod. Maybe that just needed some fixing?

    It wasas good of a lead as any-- arguably a better idea than her initial thoughts on the whole power source. It was just a matter of how she planned to get up there to check. Enter was pretty sure she remembered seeing a ladder in the service shed…time to go grab it and get to fixing. Again.

I absolutely love snakes & dragons, and am always happy to receive them.
I'm also always happy to get new scenery items and King Costumes.

    Quince decides to keep looking for the missing page of the book on the ride.... he wonders why the page wouldn't be near the books as why would you need just that one page and not the other books?; Eventually he goes to search around the outside of the ride... trying to see if the page was left out there.

    Froge listens in, he’s not at ALL surprised about no one being able to fix the ride. He himself has NO idea what he’s even doing! ..Especially since he ruined the manual.. Whoops! Froge watches them leave and seems to have a new sense of inspiration!
    After his break, Forge heads back to the broken ride. Maybe the control panel ISN’T the issue! Maybe its something else..
    Forge wanders away from the control panel and starts to search inside the ride and on the tracks. Maybe someone’s stuffy or prize fell onto the track! Maybe that’s what’s stopping it! Forge flaps his wings in excitement, looking for any clue as to what it could be, a rubber ducky perhaps? (119)

    Pink Lemonade exhales with frustration at the conversation she'd just overheard. Everyone's trying their best, but no one seems to be the expert! If only some professionals would pop out of the woodwork and give the old machine a firm kick in the side, maybe that'd help! PL contemplated for a moment before casually siddling to the side of the ride and giving it a firm kick, biting her tongue immediately to suppress the cry of pain.

    Having finally pieced the loose pages of the ride manual back together, Sugar and her finch friend looked down at their work. "Alright, so looking down the index... AHA! Error codes! Okay find that page... oh" Sugar gawked at the number of error codes possible. "Are we sure this thing is EVER safe? Even when it's running 'correctly'?" Sugar simply shook her head, fairly sure she's never riding one of these things again after this, and looked up the specific code from before. "Here it is, Error Code 476 says... 'refer to code 349' okay? Code 349 says: 'refer to code 620.' Uh, alright... 'refer to page 8' What??" Sugar and Mulberry proceeded to jump back and forth throughout the manual, jumping to different pages and lists until finally they got an answer! 'Ride malfunction, call ride maintenance technician for further instruction.' "You've got to be kidding. Is this some sort of prank? Are we being pranked? Is that something they do at carnivals?" Sugar looked around, she saw many colorful chicoons, but the only clown there was herself. Her wings drooped in defeat, Mulberry flittering up to comfort her friend.

    "Well.. I guess we could just start kicking it?" (200)

i've decided to... Jam looks around.. how odd... He doesnt know anything about fixing rides, though he had helped fixing electrical wiring before. he decides to continue fixing. After about an hour, he flops to the floor, it seems like it was breaking apart more as screws fell out.. this is difficult.

94% of people think that wolves are vicious, evil animals. Copy and paste this into your signature if you're one of the 6% who love wolves and think they are amazing creatures.

90% of people think dragons are creepy as heck. But 7% of people say dragons would destroy everything if they were real. 2% set off to find some dragons, but fail. Put this on your siggy if you are in the 1% of people who would be by a dragon's side forever.

    Pablo lets his wings hang low. He knows he doesn't help a lot, but he is trying? Maybe he shouldn't have said he'd fix the ride. Slowly he walks back to the ride, he takes some tools and just does something, tightening bolts, trying to fix loose wires. Should he maybe just try to climb up to see if something is wrong with the part that should turn? Pablo tries some other things first, but he gets the feeling that nothing helps at this point. So he crawls up the ride, using a safety harness and just starts wacking things with a wrench, hoping that that will do something. After wacking on some random things, he notices a bolt that seems like it is sticking out quite a bit. "Might that be the issue then?" He says, crawling closer to the bolt, while he keeps ajustingthe safety harness so he can not fall down. Wait, did he even power down the control panel before he climbed up? Well, lets hope for the best. Pablo finally got to the bolt that's sticking out, he tries to tighten it, but it won't budge. "Wha?" Pablo says quietly, but confused. He tries again, but this time uses his whole body strength, hoping it does something. Sweat dripping down his head. "You really don't want to budge eh, you annoying little bolt," PAblo say annoyed and just at that moment the bolt moves and Pablo loses his balance. If it were not for the safety vest, he would have fallen for sure. Being sure his heart can be heard by the whole carnival, he takes a little time to rest, clinging to the ride fr his life after that scare. After some time, he feels more calm again and decides to climb down, the bolt was tightened and this is pretty much his last resort. Pablo hopes it finally helped, so he decides to wait for the other 2 chicoons to come back and check on the ride.
