Day 309 [Open]

[dontyoujustwish]

Who: Anya, Ibuki, Patchouli, and anyone else!
Open: Open! Mostly.
When: Day 309
Where: All over the Bastion
What: SNOW!
Format: I'll match
Warnings: It's Anya.

[For Ibuki and Patchouli]
[Sometime after lunch, Anya takes off to look for two of her best lady friends with a spellbook under her arm and some key ingredients in her pockets.

She's quite cheerful about it, a little oblivious to whatever else might have been going on lately. Cheerful, and insistent. She will track you down.]


[Open to All]
[Later in the day, Bastionites may be surprised to look up and notice that... it's snowing. Not only that, but the temperature has dropped.

At least in the more southerly parts of the Bastion. The farmlands might get a few sporadic flurries, but it isn't cold enough there to stick.

So if you've been missing snowmen or snowball fights or any of those activities that require winter to happen, now's your chance. It's probably not going to last very long.]

((OOC: And feel free to just use this post for mingling!]

Ah, that's right! The library!

Ibuki might get kicked out if she follows you in, though! Ibuki's sure you'd understand why!

[dontyoujustwish]

Why would Patchouli kick you out? Aren't you friends?

[scary_music]

Ah, that's right!

The universal law of being quiet in the libraries is trumped by the power of friendship!

[dontyoujustwish]

Also I don't think she's a librarian.

Is she?

[scary_music]

... Ibuki never asked! But it is her library.

Anyway, we have more important things to do than discuss her library! Like dragging her out of it so we can make it snow!

[heptagram]

Oh. Are we doing that today?

[Behind you, ladies.]

Hello. Looks like I ran into you at a good time.

[dontyoujustwish]

Oh, you're already outside. [Aside to Ibuki:] We won't have to drag her.

And yes. I have everything we need.

[scary_music]

[The fact that Ibuki didn't catch Patchouli's approach was odd, considering her sense of hearing. She really was out of it, if the bags under her eyes weren't indicative enough]

Okay! Let's do the snow summons!

[... she's trying to act like she's not sleep deprived, though]

[heptagram]

[Patchouli might not be noticing, or might be assuming her mind is playing tricks on her, since the idea of Ibuki running out of energy just seems ridiculous.]

Alright. Now, I... don't really know how to do this... [Not really that embarrassing, even if it sounds like she's ashamed.] so, Anya, could you please explain, or lead us, or however this is going to go?

[dontyoujustwish]

Well, since we're already here, do you want to do it in the library?

[heptagram]

[The mun kicks the posting order a little bit here. Patchouli nods.]

I think we can do that. There should be space on the top floor.

[scary_music]

Lead the way, Patchy-chan!

[... as if she doesn't know where the library is???]

[dontyoujustwish]

Why do we need her to lead us? It's right there.

[Not only do they all know where it is, but it's literally within easy sight? Anya doesn't understand and so she's just going to.. lead the way herself. To the library!]

[heptagram]

[Patchouli follows Anya.]

Upstairs, everyone. There should be enough space outside my room, I think.

[scary_music]

[Ibuki follows after Anya, oddly quiet for the time being... when suddenly-]

Oh, guess what, Anyan-chan, Patchy-chan?? Ippo-chan proposed to Ibuki last night!

[she holds up her left hand, and that sure is a gold ring with a citrine]

[dontyoujustwish]

[If Anya was supposed to have a positive reaction to that announcement, well, she doesn't.]

Why, did he get you pregnant or does he just want to build up your hopes and then shatter them?

[heptagram]

Ibuki doesn't seem like the sort who wants children, to me.

[Anya, there's a time and a place, etc.]

[scary_music]

Whoa... Anyan-chan! Wow!

... um, can Ibuki pick neither? Because neither!

[dontyoujustwish]

[It's coming from a place of concern!

...and hatred of men, but also concern!]

Well, when he doesn't follow through, don't say I didn't warn you.

[heptagram]

[Not the time, ladies.

When they arrive, Patchouli holds the door open for them. Not especially necessary, mind, but.]

Upstairs, now. I'm pretty sure Ibuki knows where. [Because she's invaded Patchy's bedroom at least once.]

[scary_music]

A-ahaha...

[Ibuki will just go into the library then.]

[dontyoujustwish]

You're right, Patchouli, this is more important.

[By which she means they will be getting practice together for when they most likely will need to curse Ippo.

But anyway inside she goes.]

[heptagram]

[Is that necessary--

Anyway. Patchouli leads everyone upstairs, to the third floor.]

Here we are. My bedroom's up here, but we're not going in there unless we need the space.

[scary_music]

Okay, let's start-!

[She sits down-They have to sit down for this, right?]
