Summer Festival in the MGU



Wherever you are, whoever you are, one minute you’re at home minding your own business and the next you’ll see a shower of sparkles before you blink and find yourself teleported elsewhere.

The elsewhere, it seems, is an open grounds lined with stalls, pathways and gardens. Lanterns light up the pathways in soft glowing oranges and pinks, and even though it’s evening the weather is warm and enjoyable for a fun summer festival.

As you set off to explore, you’ll find that there are countless stalls with every type of treat you can imagine from a variety of cultures (including some from your own home worlds, strangely), all of which smell delicious and enticing. There are other stalls available with different carnival games as well. Go ahead and give it your all! Win a prize for that special someone, or just keep trying out of sheer stubbornness. Other stalls seem to be selling wares such as clothing, household items, flowers, and other things that can be given away as gifts. It seems that every time you look around, a new stall opens, almost as if this festival is responding to your every wish.

Speaking of wishes, there’s a small cluster of bamboo trees nearby as well, tables set up with baskets of arts and crafts supplies to write your wishes on the colorful paper and tie them to a branch. It’s a sweet thought, no?

And of course, what’s a festival without fireworks? Every now and then fireworks will light up the night sky, bursts of color in fun shapes such as stars, hearts, faces of people you know, whatever! Sparklers and bubble wands can also be found to play with throughout the evening near the viewing gardens. Flowers bloom and cover the area, though the paths lead to several small alcove-like areas and gazebos for those of you who wish to have a little romantic privacy. No matter where you are though, you’ll always be able to see the starry night sky.

Do try to play along and enjoy yourself for the evening. It’s only when the last firework bursts several hours later that you can actually leave anyway. Have fun!

[ooc: you know the drill, past mg characters from any of our past games, please don't make me list them again but go nuts.]

[Looks at Sieghart.]

[Looks at Lucretia.]

[Back to Sieghart.]


And you said that "I don't have the time for romance". Uhuh.

Oh, Mandricardo.

[He lowers the candy apple out of which he was just about to take a bite.]

I said that I didn't attend school to court. Besides, all we have here is time.

[personal profile] duranduel 2021-08-07 11:05 pm (UTC)(link)
Well.....yeah, I guess that's true.

[And a light smile. He just wanted Sieghart to be happy!!! NOT A BIG GRUMP GRAMP SAYING NO TO ROMANCE]

You look like you're having a great time, so...good for you.
ercnerd: (25)

[personal profile] ercnerd 2021-08-07 11:12 pm (UTC)(link)
Does it look that way? That's good, then.

[At this rate, Mandricardo is going to make Sieghart blush in front of Lucretia's salad.]

What about you? This event seems rowdier than you'd probably like . . Are you enjoying it?
duranduel: (5)

[personal profile] duranduel 2021-08-07 11:33 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, sort of? I mean, it's nice talkin' to familiar faces like yours. So many people I don't know, though...kinda nerve-wracking...
ercnerd: (26)

[personal profile] ercnerd 2021-08-07 11:47 pm (UTC)(link)
[He bites into the candy apple with a hum.]

I thought I saw Rufus earlier . . . Have you seen any familiar faces who aren't from Wiwaldi?

[personal profile] duranduel 2021-08-07 11:52 pm (UTC)(link)
[He shakes his head.]

Not that I can tell, no. Just everyone from school. Who's Rufus?
ercnerd: (25)

[personal profile] ercnerd 2021-08-08 12:26 am (UTC)(link)
A bounty hunter who hunts souls.

Well, he's not the type to strike conversation, so you shouldn't have to worry about him. [He grins.] If it gets too unbearable, you can always take a break with Wang Lu.
duranduel: (bedfellow)

[personal profile] duranduel 2021-08-08 01:15 am (UTC)(link)
I...see. Hunts souls...? That sounds like such a scary guy!
ercnerd: (26)

[personal profile] ercnerd 2021-08-08 01:25 am (UTC)(link)
There's nothing scary about someone doing his job.

Forget about him and enjoy the festivities. Ah, that's right—have you tried this yet?

[He waves the candy apple.]
duranduel: (Default)

[personal profile] duranduel 2021-08-08 02:01 am (UTC)(link)
Still, scary job...

[And a blink.]

Um, no. What is that. An apple?
ercnerd: (24)

[personal profile] ercnerd 2021-08-08 02:08 am (UTC)(link)
[Rufus isn't scary, Mandricardo.]

Mm, it is. There's plenty more over here. Why don't you give it a try?
duranduel: (Default)

[personal profile] duranduel 2021-08-08 02:33 am (UTC)(link)
O...kay.

[SOULS IS A BIG DEAL]

Um, are there different flavors?
ercnerd: (26)

[personal profile] ercnerd 2021-08-08 02:36 am (UTC)(link)
Looks that way.

[He steps aside. There's a sizable array of flavors for Mandricardo to sample.]

What's it going to be?
ambiography: (15 - 4dpaKgn)

[personal profile] ambiography 2021-08-08 01:08 am (UTC)(link)
Well, to be completely fair-- neither of us really did, back then. In multiple senses of the phrase.

[the lack of time because sieg was dead, for one thing, but also they were busy with both murder school things and what they had going on at home.]
duranduel: (5)

[personal profile] duranduel 2021-08-08 01:15 am (UTC)(link)
...

[LOOKS AT HIM BEING A DATE WHORE...]

I see. Well, it's good that you're doin' it now!
ambiography: (47)

[personal profile] ambiography 2021-08-08 01:57 am (UTC)(link)
[that counted as murder school things, probably! she smiles a little at that comment, though.]

We got around to it eventually, yeah.
duranduel: (12)

[personal profile] duranduel 2021-08-08 01:58 am (UTC)(link)
Good.

[And he just! Raises a hand.]

H-High five, Lucretia!
ambiography: (47)

[personal profile] ambiography 2021-08-08 02:25 am (UTC)(link)
[she high fives him with her free hand! no hesitation.]
duranduel: (bestie)

[personal profile] duranduel 2021-08-08 02:32 am (UTC)(link)
Y-Yeah!!!

[He looks so happy!]
ambiography: (48)

[personal profile] ambiography 2021-08-08 04:57 am (UTC)(link)
[cute... this is so pure wtf. she gives him a warm smile in return.]

What about yourself-- are you doing well?
