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.]

Can't people solve their problems a different way... with less death...

I assure you there are other ways to do things.

That would be vastly preferable, but it seems there are rather a lot of entities out there that answer the question of "what should we do?" with "murder". Hmph! I should like to teach them a lesson.

I still think we should be able to sue.

[me sitting here trying to remember if suing was a thing in fe3h i want to say no but i feel like as soon as i do i'll replay and there'll be an offhand "i'll sue you" remark in a support somewhere

anyway, annie says that so authoritatively that even if that's a foreign concept to flayn, it sounds like an appropriate punishment, so she nods.]


It would be nice if we could do that...

Yeah! That way we can get some compensation besides like, friendship and stuff.

I wonder how we might go about doing it?

...although I suppose it might be difficult to do after all this time...

Well, it just happened for me.

... and I guess that means there could be more.

You are likely right about that...

[flayn's run into some familiar faces - but also some unfamiliar ones, who weren't at the winter holiday party. these things really do seem to keep happening, don't they...?]

Will there ever be an end to them, I wonder?

It feels like for every one we stop another just pops up. I guess because they're all disconnected?

... but there has to be some connection somewhere, if it's similar systems. Maybe everyone is getting the idea from somewhere specific.

...hmm... if we could cut off that source of inspiration, somehow, then perhaps it would prevent new ones...?

[lol, nope. murder is forever.]

[personal profile] departea 2021-09-25 11:55 am (UTC)(link)
Maybe! We just need to... figure out how to do that...?

[ hm. ]

Let's think about that later!

Good idea!
