Spring is in the air, or at least it is here. Regardless of where you may have been before, you'll hear the the sound of jaunty music playing ahead of you as you step into the sun.

Welcome...to the happiest place on Earth.

Everywhere around you seems to brighten and reach out to you, the sight of large, colorful structures and flashing lights, the sound of playful music and people laughing, the scent of delicious sweet and savory treats and the sudden weight in your pocket of a cell phone. Opening it, you'll find a special message:

To all who come to this happy place: welcome. Here age relives fond memories of the past, and here youth may savor the challenge and promise of the future.

Be sure to @ mmc to connect with others as you leave today and enter the world of yesterday, tomorrow, and fantasy.

You will find what appears to be a forum available to you filled with names you may or may not recognize. Try putting a message out there and seeing who responds!

For those of you who are more hands on, the world is your oyster and the park is your playground. The lines to wait for the rides are fairly short, and all around you there's plenty of shops and kiosks for food, drinks, and souvenears. Didn't bring any money? That's alright. It seems that everything is free for today and today only! (And yes, that includes the alcohol at various establishments.)

Unlike the Christmas party some of you may have attended last winter, it seems there isn't any sort of pranking or tomfoolery happening in the park today. There are several lands to explore, along with several other parks and attractions attached. You may not have to kiss someone in order to leave...

...but it does seem as though the gates are locked for the next several hours. On occasion, you may feel a pair of ghostly hands push you forward toward that ride you're hesitating to board or tempting you with a sugary-sweet churro. You may find that taking a loop on It's a Small World will leave the song stuck in your head for several hours while riding something like Space Mountain will leave you feeling more bold than usual. Perhaps a little bit of faith, trust and pixie dust will set you free? Oh well. All you can do now is relax, have fun, and wait for the fireworks spectacular to signal the end of the evening.

[jiuqing is coming out of the exit for the incredicoaster, and she looks a little shellshocked... which is maybe not too surprising? she is, after all, from ancient fantasy china.

what might be a little more surprising is how she grabs the wrist of whatever poor sap is nearby and starts tugging them back to the line for the ride.]

That was amazing! You have to try it!

[...okay, so she wasn't shellshocked, she was just breathless with excitement.]

ii.

[also exciting: literally all of the food. jiuqing can be found going from cart to cart and restaurant to restaurant, sampling anything she can get her hands on.

right now it's a mickey-shaped pretzel.]

Mmm... so good!

wildcard

[another "hit me with whatever or just send a text" prompt!!]

[ She can probably tug him along easily. ]

Whoa! Was? How many times have you rode it already?

...this will be my fifth time!

[wehehe]

Who knew Doc was actually a thrill seeker? [ It's not really that surprising, but still pretty amusing to think about. ]

Alright! Let's try it. Think we can sneak a pic in at the top?

[ Maybe with the new phone they got so he doesn't break his camera ]

You and your pictures... aren't you worried you'd drop it? That'd be a long way for it to fall!

[through the line they go!!]

If it happens, it happens. It'd totes be worth the shot if I did get it.

[ if it breaks, he can just swipe kazu's phone. ]

What other rides have you tried yet?

I did Space Mountain a few times earlier... oh, and the Tower of Terror, too!

What about you?

So brave. I couldn't even make it through the line of Tower of Terror before chickening out. I've been on Space Mountain and that Slinky Dog ride.

It's not that scary compared to the things we dealt with in the Prism!

[honestly, thrill rides are nothing compared to a cyoa. they're fine.]

Was the dog one fun?

It's kind of a different kind of scary.

[ maybe he just needs to go with a group ]

It's not as fast or thrilling as some of the other ones, but it's fun. Pretty cute, too.

I'll have to give it a try! ...let's head over there after this one.

[for now

because the lines are short

it's time to get bucked into the incredicoaster]

What's this one, then?

[ this is probably a case of them going in loops around the park, and coming back together, so chang geng is on his turn to find her, after scoping things out and seeing what gu yun is up to. he's looking at the pretzel curiously. ]

I've lost track of what you've tried so far...

It's a pretzel! Although, I don't really know why it's shaped like a mouse...

[a mystery. anyway, she rips off a piece of mickey's ear and holds it out to chang geng.]

It's more savory than sweet, but it's really good. Here, try some!

There's quite a lot of mouse symbolism here. [ a religious figure, maybe. (no)

(but yes)

chang geng is disgusting and instead of taking it, just leans down to momf the piece that she's pulled off, straightening again. ]

... mm, a little salty. It is good, though.

[sIR YOU ARE REALLY NOT GOOD FOR HER HEART.

her cheeks flush a little. she should have expected that, actually? she's not sure why she didn't.]

Would you like to split it with me?

I suppose I can't say no. That's what we're supposed to do here, after all.

[November sure allows himself to get dragged towards the rides!]

First time going onto this kind of rides, Jiuqing?

Yes! The ones at the carnival in the Prism were a bit more tame, and we have nothing like this in Daxing...

[at least the lines are short. they won't be waiting too long.]

But these are a lot of fun!

These exist in my world, but I haven't rode one in my entire life. Or if I did, it was so long ago I don't remember now.

[Who knows how his life was like before becoming what he is now, and you can be sure he had no time for amusement parks after joining the MI6!]

All the more reason for us to ride as many of them as we can now!

[who knows when they'll have the chance to ride them again?]

I suppose there's no harm in doing so.

[Hah, hey, this is far better than being in a murdergame, that's for sure. Taking a few rides in stuff is fine]

This is the most excited I have seen you in a while. Good to see you're in good health, Jiuqing.

[she smiles]

Well... it's exciting to get to try new things! [and also, not being stuck in the middle of a murdergame is doing wonders for her mood. she can actually enjoy herself and not need to worry about patching people up! ...unless someone manages to get hurt here at the park.] Speaking of, did you see all the food they've got?

And it's good to see that you're doing well, too. I've been keeping busy in Daxing, but... it doesn't hurt to take a break every so often.
