Let the Festival Begin [Day 143 | Day 144]

[bastionmods]

Who: EVERYONE
Open: Open
When: Day 143 & 144
Where: All over the Bastion
What: The first two days of the Harvest Festival
Format Any
Warnings: None

For the past week or so, it may feel like to some that the Bastion is gearing up for something. And not anything bad, either. Something good and oh so needed. It's not just the people, the Caels and the Ura that are aware of what the coming days would mean if the world was still intact. It's like the very Bastion itself has suddenly gained new life, and there's a power over it that's greater than any person, creature or Core.

Anyone who is still awake as dawn breaks over the Bastion may find themselves inexplicably tired for no reason at all, and unable to give in to an intense need to close their eyes, just for a moment.

When everyone wakes, and I do mean everyone, the Bastion will be transformed. Decorations, lights strung across every angle, wreaths, tables with colorful cloths over them, streamers and banners and so much stuff just seemingly out of nowhere! The entire Bastion, suddenly a vibrant, beautiful place for a celebration. And not just any celebration.

The Harvest Festival!

Nooo, I make it so it doesn't stick out everywhere.

[Bringing his hand back to fend of Saix's and fix his hair. He's probably messing it up more than Saix.]

[aprettyred]

Rin?

[ SHE THOUGHT YOU LOOKED A LITTLE FAMILIAR. Anna peers intently at Rin for a moment longer. ]

Okumura?

[ You were a boy. This is odd, but still okay. ]

[croceamors]

That's not... That's worse.

[coolerthansora]

I know what I'm doing.

[croceamors]

[A chuckle.]

No you don't.

[coolerthansora]

Yeah, I do.

I know lots more than you think.

[dontyoujustwish]

Did you make them nervous?

[dontyoujustwish]

Why? I'm saying he probably isn't in a hell dimension.

Although I suppose I don't have any reason to think that.

[aprettyred]

Its good. A little odd, but still good.

[ And she might get just a little juice on her face, but she doesn't seem to worry about that. ]

[aprettyred]

[ She studies him a little longer. This might feel a little odd, as if she's seeing something else. ]

... Do you miss home?

[croceamors]

Mm. Axel seems to think so...

[coolerthansora]

Axel said stuff about me?

[croceamors]

Yes. Why wouldn't he stay stuff about you?

[coolerthansora]

I dunno.

What'd he say?

[croceamors]

Hold on... [This was a while ago. Also, the booze he is still drinking isn't helping.] He said... You were probably the reason he started to feel emotions again.

[What kind of disney crap is that anyway- oh. Yeah.]

[croceamors]

Probably, but I think they're always just naturally twitchy. Dusks are at the bottom of the hierarchy, really. That doesn't explain the Gamblers...

[notduchess]

[ The knight nods thoughtfully. Honestly it would be easier if they didn't have such a mixed group, but maybe Duke will just... not ask about this religion stuff. That also seemed safe- ]

Culture makes sense. Humans are humans, but Guild and Empire are very different, in terms of how things work and attitudes.

Thanks for your time, and I hope I didn't ask anything terribly uncomfortable.

[fuckthemancers]

It is no trouble at all. I still cannot do much here in regards to things such as venturing out, but I do want to help in whatever way I can. Answering questions is the least I can do.

[coolerthansora]

R-really?

[B'awww.]

I- feel like that, too.

[croceamors]

[Ew so much squishy feelings]

Hm. Lucky you.

[coolerthansora]

[Shh, it's okay, Saix. Pat pat.]

You've got time.

[notduchess]

I was happy without the idea of 'a hell dimension'.

[blackblooded]

"It's fine. I'm more stubborn."

"Yeah, a stubborn loser!"

[croceamors]

Time for what?

[Also, patting, what]

[coolerthansora]

For him to- make you feel, too.

[This might turn into petting your hair again. Huh.]
