In order to counteract the shitty day, you should amuse me.

[cyrano]

Concept lifted from Windrose's journal:

If I were a summonable creature or monster, how would you go about summoning me? What would you use, and how would the summoning go? Why would somebody summon me?

I would wait for a blustery day, then read aloud from a copy of the Tao of Pooh while anointing the cardinal points of a magic circle with the BPAL scent Coyote.

I think most of my summons would likely be done with a few broad gestures and a lot of MP points, but I'm an awful Final Fantasy VII fan. You'd be a terrific summon specializing in the destruction of writers' block.

There is a method of playing two flutes at the same time which may be used to create a series of alluring dissonances which may attract things not of this world. For this particular creature, the pattern is one which invokes the crisp anticipation of the first rainstorm of the Autumn, along with a fire to sit next to and watch it roll in. This creature is summoned when one desires company sufficiently erudite to enable useful conversation, with the lack of pretension that brings comfort, rather than the pretension that engenders philosophical debate. Especially useful when applied to the aforementioned rainy day.
