question: honk
additional content: Rocket stares at the board for a second, Boa sitting beside them watching curiously before Rocket lets out a curious sound and then makes a noise that makes Boa jump almost into the air.

Rocket honks at the board in place of a question, or maybe the honk was a question in and of itself..?

question: Do you miss us, wherever you are?

Mayhem revels in the dark and foggy nights of October. Xe was born under October's full moon after all, and the spooky is xes safe place. However, xe feared for this year, as xes gob had been banished and those who were reined in by him now walk free, including that blasted Gobbess! Mayhem's paws curled in anger as he stalked toward the Gooween festivities.
Something pulled xe out of xes anger though: a small tent, unlabeled but decorated entirely in the colors of the banished Gob. What's this...?
As Mayhem stepped inside the tent, xe noticed a board in the center of it. The handwritten sign next to it read, "Behold the honk board, your ticket to communicating with Jystyr!"
Honk board? Commune with Jystyr?! Mayhem glanced at the board, and, predictably, noticed it was covered entirely in the word "honk." His language...
Unspeakable joy began to bubble in xem as they took in what this meant. Jystyr... is alive?? I can communicate with him?? Mayhem giggled and immediately set to work honking out xes message to the long-gone Gob.
...
After half an hour's work, Mayhem sat back. It was done. The question was longer than xe would have liked, courtesy of xes overexplaining, but it did its job, xe supposed.
Mayhem dug around in xes bag for xes signature rubber ducks, pulled one out, and placed it on the table next to the honk board.
As Mayhem bounced out of the small tent, xe sent one last thought out to the banished Gob.
See you soon, Jystyr.

question: what's it like?

sapphire spent hours upon hours, all in an attempt to come up with the perfect question. she knew the former gob would be happy with anything, but she still wanted to come up with something interesting. "what's your favorite food? ... nah, I can ask that later. maybe his favorite game? nah I can ask that later too... gah, this is so frustrating!! why can't I think of anything!?" 

as she paced back and forth, a thought came to her mind. of course, why hadn't she thought of this before? grabbing the honk board, she spoke her question. "what's it like? being in the spirit world and all. i'm curious." as soon as she set the board back down, clapping could be heard from the line behind her. "wow, my question was so good that it moved the crowd!" "...no, they're happy that we can finally have a turn now. you've been here for hours." sapphire looked around, noticing the long line of goobies behind her. stepping aside sheepishly, she wondered if jystyr would actually hear her message or if it would be lost to the void.

question: what’s your favorite musical instrument?
additional content:

raindrops stared at the honk board, unsure of what question to ask. multiple possibilities swirled through the agel’s mind, but one peaked their curiosity the most. sure, there are so many more potentially useful or important questions to ask, but raindrops was very interested to know what instrument the gob prefers the most. if they even get a response, in the first place.

after asking their question, raindrops began talking to the honk board about their favorite instrument, the guitar. maybe it’d encourage jystyr to give it some thought? they shrugged, not wanting to force anything. ‘it must be a lot to have so many goobs asking you questions.’ [109 words]

question: 'can you even hear us?'

Acryl looked at the board... just the word honk, sounded like jystyr alright. In a sense, he felt like his questions wouldn't matter because of this. After all, anything too complex would just be a series of honks, and as much as acryl wished- he couldn't translate that to actual language. He didn't want to bombard jystyr with an immediate question without knowing he was there first. If he could cry, he would have- thinking about jystyr being lost to them was painful- which wasn't good for a minro gob like him with a happy persona to uphold. Oh well- hopefully someone would get an answer if not him- as it'd still prove something related to his question. He sighed a little. "You don't have to answer, I know this is probably a lot... I just hope we can talk to you, at least for a little bit..."
