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.]

[surprise, he is in fact here-- you can catch emet around here and there, maybe, but he's most findable during the fireworks.

he's just watching, at first, but after a bit he snaps his fingers and watches them begin exploding into the shapes of constellations, planets, tiny galaxies. then he looks more satisfied, vibing here with a drink in hand.]

[watches him snap his fingers


sees the fireworks start exploding differently than they were before]


Wow! Did you do that? How cool!
arkitect: (1)

[personal profile] arkitect 2021-08-08 09:11 pm (UTC)(link)
Just one of my many capabilities.

[don't be so damn smug.]

It was unfortunate that there wasn't really a chance for this in the Realm.
dawnblushed: (017)

[personal profile] dawnblushed 2021-08-08 09:19 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, really! It would've been neat to see.

[ALAS...]

How have you been doing since we left that place?
arkitect: (16)

[personal profile] arkitect 2021-08-09 06:18 am (UTC)(link)
...well enough. It's been-- quiet.

[or what counts as quiet for him. this includes hansa and chiron being dumb jocks together. but on the whole... it's just kind of normal. he thinks he likes it.]
dawnblushed: (002)

[personal profile] dawnblushed 2021-08-09 03:26 pm (UTC)(link)
Quiet, huh?

[good! sounds peaceful. she smiles.]

Must be nice after all of that!
arkitect: (Default)

[personal profile] arkitect 2021-08-10 02:14 am (UTC)(link)
I suppose it is. When the others aren't causing trouble, anyway, but unfortunately, I'm more than used to that.
dawnblushed: (018)

[personal profile] dawnblushed 2021-08-10 02:16 am (UTC)(link)
[she laughs]

But it's nice to have them with you, right?

[there's a quick and sudden bang right against his ear, like the sound of a cabinet being slammed shut! this is how wizards say hello.

which lup is this? who knows because both would do this]
arkitect: (Default)

[personal profile] arkitect 2021-08-09 06:21 am (UTC)(link)
What do you want--

[he's instantly irritated when that interrupts his calm... but seeing it's lup seems to smooth his ruffled feathers, as he just siiighs and relaxes into place once more.]

You could just come sit. I am well aware of your capability to appear somewhere without trying to deafen me in the process.

[personal profile] evocationary 2021-08-09 06:24 am (UTC)(link)
You're such a baby. It wasn't even that loud.

[she does wander over, though, flopping down next to him.] Didn't think you'd be stuck here like some kind of puny mortal.
arkitect: (4)

[personal profile] arkitect 2021-08-09 06:35 am (UTC)(link)
Have you not considered that I may not be?

[like-- he is stuck, yes. but. maybe he just wanted to vibe here a while, damn!]

I don't entirely dislike it.
evocationary: [ ɢʟᴏᴡʙᴀᴛ ] (02)

[personal profile] evocationary 2021-08-09 06:39 am (UTC)(link)
I considered it, and then tossed away the notion. This is not the type of place Emet Selch would conjure up for himself.

[not enough ween woons.]

... But uh. Well. Not disliking it is good.

[personal profile] arkitect 2021-08-09 06:45 am (UTC)(link)
[he waves a hand, idly. is that firework in the shape of lup's tattoo? hm. he saw nothing.]

It is not, no, but I already have what I would otherwise conjure.

Azem would enjoy themselves here, I'm sure, but as they aren't present, they will have to satisfy themselves with hearing of it later.
evocationary: [ ᴛᴀᴢᴅᴇʟɪɢʜᴛғᴜʟ ] (46)

[personal profile] evocationary 2021-08-09 02:40 pm (UTC)(link)
[aw, that's cute.]

Azem enjoys everything you don't. [she informs him, amused.] Wowzers. I should hang out with them more often, they're the life of the party.

[quit negging emet]

[personal profile] arkitect 2021-08-09 03:12 pm (UTC)(link)
As they are not here, I'm afraid you'll have to content yourself with my company instead.

Unless you would prefer to spend your time elsewhere?
evocationary: [ ᴋᴀʏʟᴀʙᴀʀᴀʀᴛ ] (57)

[personal profile] evocationary 2021-08-09 03:21 pm (UTC)(link)
Gross. [she says, stretching idly.] Anyway. No. I'm not going anywhere.

[idly, lup draws a shape in the air with fire - something that looks like his glyph mask.]
arkitect: (44)

[personal profile] arkitect 2021-08-10 03:19 am (UTC)(link)
Then I do hope you know you can't complain about the company you've chosen to keep.

[he leans over, then, reaches out to play with that fire himself and alter it-- shifts one half of the glyph and works in the shape of symbols she's used in her spell work, ties them in to the whole like it's the glyph of a prime.]

[personal profile] evocationary 2021-08-10 05:34 am (UTC)(link)
[she just makes a face at him - but doesn't seem to mind him playing with fire. she tilts her head to the side a bit, watching, and then her lips twitch.]

Sentimental! I'm always surprised. [she hums, but it's not like... mean. she's just amused.]

[ appears in here a day late,

by which i mean here's a familiar face, holding a thing of cotton candy! xie lian watches emet make the fireworks for a little while before he wanders over, standing a little behind him and looking up. ]


This feels a little like deja vu now, doesn't it? Hello, Emet Selch.
arkitect: (Default)

[personal profile] arkitect 2021-08-10 02:27 am (UTC)(link)
[honestly, he probably picked up on xie lian's presence while he was watching-- he's a hard man for emet-selch not to be aware of, and boy, i can't type that without it being gay in some way huh. he hasn't acknowledged him though, evidently deciding to just wait until he's addressed.

when he is-- he doesn't turn around, either.]


Mayhap it does. Really, one would think we could be left well enough alone.
dianxias: (245)

[personal profile] dianxias 2021-08-10 02:30 am (UTC)(link)
[ i'm crying. emet selch your protags

xie lian huffs at that, seemingly a little amused? and comes over to sit next to him, instead, in a puff of white silk. he's got his hat perched on his head, and tips up to look at the display above them for a moment longer, then turns that smile properly on him. ]


I meant more so staring up at stars and galaxies, but that too. [ like the planetarium...! ] It's nice, though, isn't it? A chance to reunite with everyone for a little while.
arkitect: (Default)

[personal profile] arkitect 2021-08-10 03:20 am (UTC)(link)
I expect it is, yes, if you should want to reunite with them.

[he says, and yet he is in fact still out here.]
dianxias: (159)

[personal profile] dianxias 2021-08-10 03:27 am (UTC)(link)
[ xie lian just smiles a little more. c: ]

It's nice to see you again, Emet Selch.
