Who: Jamie Mariadaga-Evans & @drtamarahayes

What: Emergency Services Carnival

Jamie was walking past all the food booths, looking for something to snack on. He loved the carnival, and it was always fun, a good break from work. Now the hard part was deciding between pizza or a burger. Out of the corner of his eye, he spotted a familiar face. "Hey, doc," he grinned, waving over at Tam. "Long time no see," he joked, knowing that they had just seen each other at work the other day.

“They really are such precious little creatures,” Joelle nodded with a smile. “They are! They just make me so happy. I would have a house full of cats if only it were sociably acceptable,” she chuckled. “I love those! Blanche is a Persian and Lorelai is an American Shortail. They’re both little fluffy babies,” she grinned, before carefully placing the kitten in Tamara’s arms. “She likes you!”

“I can’t help but lean towards kittys when it comes to pets. They’re just so snuggly and purring is so therapeutic!” Or maybe that was just her own personal highlights. Either way. “I only have Nebula, my Maine Coon. I’m highly considering getting her a friend.” Tamara moved her head in a nod when Joella offered the small feline, offering her hands to take her. “Yes, please!”

[TASK 056: THE IRON CONFEDERACY]

Shout out to @olivaraofrph​ for inspiring and helping compile this task! There’s a masterlist below compiled of over 90+ faceclaims categorised by gender with their occupation and ethnicity denoted if there was a reliable source. The Iron Confederacy's a pre-colonial powerful Native American/Canadian political and military confederacy, forming at an unknown time before 1692. While the Confederacy itself dissolved in the 1860s, the tribes that formed it remain as the Plains Cree, Saulteaux, and Nakoda Sioux. If you want an extra challenge use random.org to pick a random number! Of course everything listed below are just suggestions and you can pick whichever character or whichever project you desire.

Any questions can be sent here and all tutorials have been linked below the cut for ease of access! REMEMBER to tag your resources with #TASKSWEEKLY and we will reblog them onto the main! This task can be tagged with whatever you want but if you want us to see it please be sure that our tag is the first five tags!

THE TASK - scroll down for FC’s!

STEP 1: Decide on a FC you wish to create resources for! You can always do more than one but who are you starting with? There are links to masterlists you can use in order to find them and if you want help, just send us a message and we can pick one for you at random!

STEP 2: Pick what you want to create! You can obviously do more than one thing, but what do you want to start off with? Screencaps, RP icons, GIF packs, masterlists, PNG’s, fancasts, alternative FC’s - LITERALLY anything you desire!

STEP 3: Look back on tasks that we have created previously for tutorials on the thing you are creating unless you have whatever it is you are doing mastered - then of course feel free to just get on and do it. :)

STEP 4: Upload and tag with #TASKSWEEKLY! If you didn’t use your own screencaps/images make sure to credit where you got them from as we will not reblog packs which do not credit caps or original gifs from the original maker.

[jmiemagvans]

JAMIE: trust me, it is haha

JAMIE: oooh, yeah? Anything fun happening?

JAMIE: I’d say it was pretty perfect.

TAM: It sounds interesting :P TAM: maybe one day - I’m a bit occupied these days! TAM: yeah! There were even some mini zombies and I just wanted to eat them all up!

[xjoellasuh]

"Exactly, I love the way you think," Joella beamed. She truly loved cats, which is why she already had two cats to keep her company. Being at the shelter though? It made it hard to resist adopting another one. She scratched behind the kitten's ears, earning a soft little mew from the tiny creature. "Oh me too. Heaven is full of fluff. Do you wanna hold her?"

”It’s not the worst mantra to live by.” Tamara laughed, bringing her shoulders up in a mild shrug, chocolate eyes drifting to the floor where cats and kittens alike played. She couldn’t help but follow suit, kneeling cautiously to allow a cluster of felines paw at her jeans. “They’re so cute, I would happily die here and now!” She conceded gently, not wanting to scare any of the kittens with her excitement and awe.

[jmiemagvans]

JAMIE: yeah, think of it as a melted blueberry milkshake. It was… interesting.

JAMIE: I don’t know if I’d recommend it but it’s something to just try for funsies

JAMIE: aww nice! The kids are always so excited to get all dressed up. It’s refreshing.

TAM: hold on... TAM: Blue milk?? What did I miss? TAM: it was good thanks! theo and i decided to stay in and hand out candy the night of. there were so many cute little costumes!

[jmiemagvans]

JAMIE: that’s what I aim for :p

JAMIE: handed out candy, mostly! But I did enjoy the rest of hallo-week and did some haunted houses, a pub crawl… tried the blue milk. That one was interesting

JAMIE: How’d yours go?

TAM: very unpredictable, more like it hahaha! TAM: how’d you spend your Halloween evening? Did you get to do anything fun around town?

[jmiemagvans]

"Grape's not bad either," Jamie acknowledged. "It reminds me of those vintage sodas from when we were kids. I remember getting those all the time with my brothers at the arcade," he grinned. "I probably did the same thing. Along with lots of ice cream."

"If I had to choose, probably grape. Can't get enough of it. I was the same with bubblegum growing up. I swear I could eat a whole pack of those back in the day. It definitely wasn't healthy."

[jmiemagvans]

“Strawberry. I’m definitely a strawberry kid,” Jamie said with a nod. “What about you?” He asked her.

"If you had to choose, what flavour would you pick?" Tamara inquired curiously. "Grape, raspberry or strawberry?"

[jmiemagvans]

“Perfect!” He laughed. “Fairy floss sounds good,” Jamie agreed. “I think I saw some over there,” he nodded. There were plenty of things to do around them. Fairy floss was a good place to start.

”I really do.” She enthused with a joyous laugh, always happy to endorse the hobbies of others so long as it didn’t cause them any harm. Not that she had to worry about that with Jamie. “No, not yet! I had my eyes on some fairy floss, honestly. I haven’t had it in… years?”

[xjoellasuh]

"The more cats, the merrier. Well, maybe not officially, but I still stand by it!" she said, beaming as one of the smaller kittens walked towards them. Kneeling down, she scooped the small cat into her arms, before grinning at Tamara. "Aren't they so much fun, though? Look at the fluffy little baby!" Jo said, holding up the kitten in her arms.

Theo had urged her to enjoy the shelter weekend event instead of staying home with him, and naturally, Tamara had gravitated towards the cattery. “Three cats wouldn’t be so bad.” The brunette mused, dipping her head as a smile spread across her lips. “I’m tempted myself, I’ll admit, but i’ve only got one back at home.”

[jmiemagvans]

"You're the best," Jamie grinned. "You know I do love my collection of stickers," he chuckled. He did indeed acquire quite the collection of stickers over the years at work. It was a fun part of his job, that mixed in with every other aspect of nursing, also made it all worth it, especially with the smiles from the kids. "I'm glad you like it! Have you gotten anything to eat yet?"

"I don't have my stickers on me at the moment, but i'll make sure to save one just for you for this very occasion." Tamara mused, something she often awarded little ones with when they took medicine or went through tests and procedures. "So far I can't complain. Like, at all."

[jmiemagvans]

JAMIE: you’re good, I promise!

JAMIE: just hats and fun stuff, you know. the kids love it too

JAMIE: makes sense, and most of the stores are out of stock anyway

TAM: thank god! TAM: you have a costume stash? that’s the best thing i’ve heard all week. TAM: I didn’t want to go too out there, you know, for practicality reasons.

[jmiemagvans]

“Yeah, I remembered this time,” Jamie grinned at her. “Made that mistake before, came back home looking like a toasted marshmallow,” he chuckled. “So tell me, how’s your first festival going?”

”I hope you’ve put plenty of sunscreen on, we wouldn’t want you to burn.” Tamara joked. “Oh, tough choice. I don’t think I can help you there.”

[jmiemagvans]

JAMIE: I definitely plan to!

JAMIE: the peds clinic does it every year so I’ve got a stash of my quick change costumes somewhere

JAMIE: I think devil horns will be very fun

text to: @jmiemagvans

TAM: you’re dressing up with me at work on Halloween, right? TAM: it doesn’t have to be anything fancy! I’m just going to wear some devil horns. TAM: please?

[jmiemagvans]

JAMIE: exactly! And kids are kinda unpredictable too

JAMIE: nope haha………

JAMIE: :p

JAMIE: haha!

JAMIE: sometimes we gotta get creative, right?

JAMIE: …maybe
