Let the Festival Begin [Day 143 | Day 144]

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!

[ Gohan hadn't had any real desire to check out the festival at first. He wasn't sure if it was because of how uncomfortable he still felt around other people, or if it was because of how disconnected he felt from everything else. Either way, he didn't much feel like being social, given he was still struggling with his own personal issues.

Then he found out there was an eating contest.

And just like that, Gohan was there. Sitting down on one of the chairs by the long table, and looking very much like a five year old waiting to be let loose inside a toy store. He was grinning from ear to ear, mouth practically salivating at the feast in front of him. And almost as if to mirror his anticipation, his stomach couldn't help but chime in with the most unnaturally loud growl.

Gohan was ready to eat. Be afraid. ]


Oh man... [ He licked his lips. ] This is going to be amazing...!

[ She's not taking part in this contest, because she wouldn't be able to hold her own in it and she already knew it. She saw Gohan over here though and thought she'd come over to wish him luck and cheer him on. ]

You look really excited!

[ It took a bit before he noticed Polka, what with all the delicious food placed in front of him practically teasing him with its savory goodness. But once he heard her, he couldn't help but grin wide and offer her a wave. ]

Well, it's been a while since I've gotten the chance to eat food like this!

[ Which reminds him, when is the contest starting dammit. ]

[ Soon, young padawan! soon! ]

The food here is really good! I was eating some of it earlier with a friend of mine.

[A dragon and a saiyan, who will win when it comes to stomachs?]

[Although, to be fair, Paarthurnax seems more amused than anything with his spot near the table. He's going to need some help getting the food actually in his mouth, but hey.]


It is all well made. We are fortunate to have such a chance.
