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.

[ah, here's someone who... well, she's never met him before, but he is dressed similarly enough to someone from daxing that he stands out among the crowd of All These Other People. (and he bears a resemblance to someone she does know, so like. that just makes him stand out even more.)

it would be rude to just walk up to him and interrupt him while he's browsing... but a chance encounter is fine! and with so many people around, no one could blame her if she happened to stumble into his path.

so she pretends to be browsing, waits until someone passes by, and then stumbles a bit, as if they've just bumped into her - and ends up brushing against his arm as he's talking to himself and looking over his ears.]

—oh! I'm sorry, sir!

[her smile is apologetic, at least, even though she definitely planned that.]

[ sometimes, memshares happen.

and, sometimes, you find yourself meeting an individual from a memshare, for better or worse.

chang geng doesn't seem particularly perturbed by being brushed against, though does shift his weight slightly away when he finds that he doesn't need to catch the person in question. simply finding some space in what has been an off-and-on crowded place, and -

well. he still smiles, pleasant and polite as always, but his eyes narrow slightly when he sees who it is that he's encountered. ]

Apologies not necessary, miss. It's quite busy right now, isn't it - makes for something of a bustling market.

[waner, who has absolutely no way of knowing that he could possibly recognize her, smiles up at him and attributes the slight narrowing of his eyes to the crowds. he's being polite, after all!

(neither she nor her mother have ever been that good at feigning politeness, so she assumes most people aren't.)]

It certainly does. I don't think I've seen this many people in one place before when it wasn't during a festival...
