[reconnective]

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.

[On the complete opposite end of the spectrum, Childe is also here! Unlike Lan Wangji, he looks like he's here to have a good time. Granted, he kind of always looks like that, but whatever. Once he spots you, regardless of whether or not he knows you, he'll wave a little to get your attention!!]

Comrade! Do you have a minute? I could use your opinion on something.

[He's standing in front of one of the souvenir shops!!! The kind with more toys and plushies and stuff than like, clothes or home goods. Come help?

Alternatively, you can catch him being an absolute show-off around the water rides. I would've linked a gif but all the ones I found were LQ so you have to deal with the video. If he's not fucking around on the waterfalls then he's probably making the splashes Extra Large or something. Will there be whales dropped on heads in the near future? Perhaps.]

[fergalicious]

[ don't turn one of the water rides into your boss battle, asshole.

anyway, let's shop since she's never really seen him be soft about his siblings? ]

Hm? What do you need?

[ as she sips on whatever alcoholic drink she was definitely not allowed to take out of the designated area. ]

[toyska]

[But consider, what if he does exactly that

But shopping time!! He'll catch her free hand if she lets him and tug her into the shop.]

I was thinking of getting something for my little sister, but I'm having trouble deciding. Normally, I'd just order a few of everything, [eat the rich] but I have a feeling I'll be limited to what I can carry with my own hands.

[Fake Disney probably doesn't deliver to Teyvat, sad.]

[fergalicious]

[ unfortunately, medb would think it's funny and won't stop him because she's evil. disney does not need to remain the happiest place on earth for everyone.

of course she lets him and laces their fingers together. that he spoils his sister is cute, though. she looks over at all the toys. ]

Why do you think you'd be limited to what you can carry yourself?

[ eat the rich with powers. ]

[toyska]

[LFMDKGHKJHK STOP THAT'S FUNNY

Fortunately he's not doing that right now though. Maybe later. For now, he just winks at her, his tone playful.]

Are you offering to help?

[His powers don't do that!!! But hey, maybe he can bust up a roller coaster vehicle and take one of the carts home? Now there's an idea.]

[fergalicious]

[ hate that she wouldn't stop him from doing that either.

she laughs and winks back. ]

You can have your pick of the help.

[ the way she only has a 60% chance of charming anyone but her luck stat is through the roof, so it basically makes it 100%. ]

[toyska]

[Ah yes, how could he possibly forget.]

Deal.

[He'll probably pay whoever they kidnap so it's fine.]

A little of everything, then? Maybe I send back enough, my parents will finally move into the bigger house.

[Childe don't just buy people houses and then be surprised when they don't drop everything and move right away]

[fergalicious]

I don't think it'll hurt.

[ if he gets a little bit of everything every time, it's a wonder his parents' house isn't overrun by now.

she really is going to encourage him to buy this store out. ]

[toyska]

Well, who am I to doubt Her Majesty's wisdom?

[To the counter it is, then! He gives the clerk a cheerful wave.]

I'll take three of everything you've got in stock, thank you.

[fergalicious]

[ he's doubted her enough.

the clerk doubletakes, but it's fine. medb takes out some perfume and applies it to herself. the fragrance notes are magically irresistible. ]

You'll help him deliver all of it home.

[ this poor clerk who childe will pay handsomely despite his icon. ]

[toyska]

[LOOK... sometimes you're a dumb man, these things happen.

She probably didn't even need the perfume to pull this off, honestly--but since she used it, the poor clerk just looks extra dazed and starstruck as she stammers out an agreement. I've decided just now that this a very buff lady clerk because we deserve lesbians, why not.]

Excellent! You do have transport of some kind, yes? I'll only need to get it to the docks.

[What docks? Where? Don't worry about it, miss clerk.]

[fergalicious]

[ we always deserve lesbians.

they need the perfume because the moment he says docks, medb looks at him sharply and mouths, docks?

what docks? the lady clerk is charmed, so she isn't even worried about hiding being criminal or foreign. ]

[toyska]

[What!! Why is she looking at him like that!!]

I'm stationed overseas right now, I have to ship them back!

[uncoincidental]

[i was going to tag you with sqx but then i realized it would be funny to tag you with sheba because diluc and kaeya have joint custody of her after chasma so she spends time in teyvat...

anyway, she wanders over when he waves her over to the souvenir shop.]

Sure, what is it?

[toyska]

[HELP that's so funny. Childe has no idea who she is, but at least she'll recognize the Vision at his hip. But he gestures to the store!]

I'm looking for a few things to get for my siblings! Do you think you could help me pick out a few things?

[uncoincidental]

[she sure does recognize the vision...

but she doesn't say anything about it. instead, she nods and looks at the shelves.]

That shouldn't be too hard. How old are they?

[toyska]

Twelve, eleven, and eight. A young lady, and two fine gentlemen. Although, my sister will be thirteen soon. I already sent some gifts home, but maybe I should get her a birthday present here, as well...

[He's gonna buy out the store]

[uncoincidental]

[aww, cute.]

And what sorts of things do they like? They've got a lot of different stuff here, so it should be easy enough to find things that fit their interests...

[toyska]

[(character intro voice) the best big brother ever]

Well, all of this would be new to them, so I'm sure they'd be happy with anything. But Tonia likes to cook, and she's interested in plants and herbs. Anthon really likes to play outside--he'll love anything that explodes. [WHY WOULD ANYTHING HERE EXPLODE.] Teucer... [Hmmmm... he frowns a little, looking around.] These might be too small for him, he's used to larger toys.

[such as dismantled ruin guards, and anchors for ships]

[uncoincidental]

...I saw a pretty big toy at one of the other shops!

[hmm. not sure what to do about explosive things and cooking with this merch.]

It looked like a really ... futuristic, I guess, suit of armor?

[it's the iron man life size model at california adventures' big marvel store.]

It was taller than some of the people here!

[toyska]

Is that so? That sounds perfect! Would you mind showing me where it is?

[Maybe he can find some fireworks for Anthon or something it's fine. For now, let's check out this suit of armor...]

[uncoincidental]

Sure, it's not too far!

[onward they go...



bam.]

See? What do you think, is it big enough for him?

[toyska]

[Hmmmm... he sizes it up, tapping a gloved finger against his cheek.]

It's a bit on the small side, [EVEN THIS...] but it'll do. I probably shouldn't spoil him too badly anyway, haha.

[IT'S TOO LATE FOR THAT.]

[uncoincidental]

[this is on the small side...?]

What does he usually play with?

[toyska]

[Haha]

Nothing we'll be able to find here, unfortunately. [IS IT UNFORTUNATE?] It's a shame, though--if we were able to control our arrival to these sorts of places, I would've arranged to bring him with me. He would love those fast-moving train rides out there!

[Teucer would ride every single roller coaster fearlessly and give Childe a thousand heart attacks probably]
