Summer Festival in the MGU

[crashout]

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!

[ oh, any of the lighthearted, amused joy on his face vanishes. ]

What?

[ WHO HAS TO DIE ]

[impurities]

[ he's pretty clinical about this, to be honest. ]

Everyone in the lodge had to die to make it to a parallel space, a winter village with a bar we arrived in. We could see them from there - and help kill them, as well, to get them to our side.

[liuli]

[ hmm.

he smiles. ]

Are any of your comrades here, then?

[impurities]

Most of the faces here aren't familiar to me. [ he knows why you're asking. ] Though I did catch sight of a clown, they seemed more docile than the last I saw them.

he honest to god forgot that limbo was a clown of some kind so immediately he thought of molly, which gets him to stop Smiling Politely for .2 seconds before he skips over it. right now he is much more concerned with finding the person who killed chang geng for no reason at all :) ] Perhaps you'll introduce your yifu to the ones that were? I should like to meet them, then.

[impurities]

[ smiling politely in return, placid as he just: ]

For this, I will not, yifu.

[liuli]

Oh? You've grown up and made friends, and you won't share with me? How very cruel of you, your highness.

[ do you want to play this game, you little bastard ]

[impurities]

I feel as if you cannot be entrusted with this knowledge, marshal? Though I will be glad to meet the friends you've made during your stay.

[ they are just going to smile pleasantly at each other and not budge, aren't they. a younger timeline gu yun and an older timeline chang geng is so dangerous. ]

[liuli]

First, a loss of trust, and now - have we grown so distant you'll no longer call me your yifu, even?


[


laughs ]

[impurities]

Perhaps we should get to know each other again? After all, it'd been quite some time before the siege on the capital since I'd last seen you, you know.

do you really want this in your life gu yun ]
