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!

[between that and lup's discomfort... shock very, very quickly gives way to worry, the wine forgotten for the moment.]
...Lup, what happened?
no subject
Oh, uh. You know. Sometimes a fucked up furby kidnaps you. Look, uh, I don't wanna do the - the, you know, the pain Olympics. The first few months were fine. Boring, but. Um.
[she's just going to grab some booze. something strong!]
no subject
--I'm sorry, you got kidnapped by a-- did you say furry?
[the Fuck is a furby]
no subject
you know what isn't is the fact that lup's just going to Major Image the uwu just like, right here, in the middle of the street. that's a furby.]
no subject
[ONCE AGAIN, WHAT IS THIS AWFUL CREATURE. this is what kidnapped lup? jesus. she recoils a little.]
This is some real nightmare shit.
no subject
Anyway, uh. It kidnapped us and wanted us to feed people to it, so. We were... all set to do that. [another heavy drink.]
no subject
It didn't-- keep them, did it?
no subject
No. The people we brought to it fought back. Thankfully. [she won't be subtle about the part she played, she guesses.]
no subject
but that phrasing doesn't exactly sound like she was just killing them. if they brought people in-]
... you were in a sort of-- similar position to our dorm heads, then. Though ours didn't really have anything to do with that end of things.
no subject
What, like a position of authority? Yeah. [fiddles with her sleeves...] Avatars. Uh - of different sins. Three guesses for mine and the first two don't count!
no subject
[thanks, the more lup explains the more she hates this for her.]
...did the others help, at least? Not necessarily with the job, just...
[in general. with everything else. lup did you have a support system for that shit.]
no subject
Yeah. A few people. I've seen one of them here already, he's out wandering around like he's never had fun before. [poor miles]
... The other one I haven't seen and I uh, I probably won't. He's got, uh. Ages-old empiring to do, or whatever.
no subject
[very brief, faint amusement, there. all these immortals in mgs.]
... but you might end up surprised. Or possibly not, I haven't seen one of our more avoidant ones myself, yet.
