❥ PROMPT I: Char-cute-erie
Following the previous month's failures, the city's replicators have recovered back to full functionality; perhaps working a little too well. Nearly anything requested of them now has a chance to duplicate one's order...except the second one may not be quite as intended. That healthy apple, comforting bowl of noodles, or 3am grilled cheese? You might just get one that quite literally sprouts legs and comically large googly eyes before skittering around causing all sorts of trouble.
Fortunately, once the problem becomes apparent, the native researchers are hard at work devising a solution; constructing critterproofed fenced-in enclosures around the city and handing out specialized pseudo-butterfly nets for anyone looking to help catch the adorable menaces. They'll offer a small dora reward to anyone who can bring them these strange little creatures alive and unharmed for research purposes. Of course, you may be so hungry after chasing down your lunch that you might just want to eat it.
Happy hunting, Havenwell!

❥ PROMPT II: Calorie Battle
The googly-eyed food overrunning the city tends to be more cute or irritating than actually problematic for most of the month. Natives and offworlders alike are busily rounding them all up and putting them into enclosures (or eating them, if that's your speed), for research and containment. However, on occasion, when the little buggers get away, people can find them gathering together in nooks and crannies of the city. When these little groups of the creatures get found, rather than toddle off and scatter like so many others do, they surge together and begin linking legs and limbs, merging together into one giant food ball with a single pair of googly eyes and a no longer placid attitude.
It seems that these little food-bugs have activated Boss Mode! The amalgam creature will attack whomever has found them, fighting its darnedest to get away. They don't have the most complex or intelligent fighting style, but their sheer size and mass can make them difficult to deal with. With each blow dealt to the creature, the food that makes up its body will pop off and run away until all of the creatures have been dispersed. After that, you can either catch the creatures or let them run.
You don't always have to be looking for trouble for it to find you, however! Sometimes, these large-scale creatures can be found roaming the city and will attack those who they come across out of instinct. They can chase people down with surprising speed, so those who can't fight should go looking for help!

❥ PROMPT III: Peace, Love, and Psychedelic Technicolor
While there are still some (literal) bugs occurring in the system, overall the natives have seen a drastic improvement in both Havenwell and Aellyn as a whole thanks to the offworlders. Last month's chocolate weather aside, the seasons have been stabilizing, the city has expanded, and the people are happier than they've ever been. As the winter months start to give way to spring, it seems that happiness is spreading throughout the city. Everywhere the colors of the city seem brighter and more vivid. The emerging greenery really pops against the last vestiges of the snow, and the gods' statues in the city square are more vibrant than usual. The natives are taking this to be a good sign, however, as the colors of the barrier are even more pronounced than ever before, making the sky itself rainbow-hued! It also appears to be stronger, with fewer weak spots along the outer edges.
Within Havenwell, though, any color in the city has its brilliance hyped up to the nth degree. Reds are redder, blues are bluer, and whites? Uh...those can actually be kind of blindingly bright. Which is not great, considering the main color scheme of the city is white and gold. Yikes. Better get some sunglasses out, offworlders, because while the natives can just turn down the brightness scale on their visual cortexes, the rest of you might need some help not being blinded by the light.
Moreover, all those colors might be pretty, but as time goes on, people may find that their favorite blue sweater? Is now their favorite rainbow sweater. Or their favorite tie-dyed sweater. Or their favorite constantly color-changing sweater like it's some sort of hyperactive mood ring. Colors in the city are going absolutely haywire: switching around, turning rainbow-colored, reverberating iridescent everywhere. Buildings, clothes, hair, food, you name it. If it exists within Havenwell, its colors are not safe from being flipped topsy-turvy for a while.
