The party is nearly over. Last drinks anyone? [Day 146]

Who: Everyone
Open: Open
When: Day 146
Where: All over the Bastion
What: Day 4 of the festival
Format: Any
Warnings: None

Yet another torch arrives in the wee morning hours, this one decorated with chains.

Today, the eldest of the Bastion and the youngest of the Bastion are gifted with another charm for their bracelets.

As for games, it seems to be strategy games all over the place! Games much like Earthly counterparts, such as Go, Shogi, Mahjong, Chess (even a 3D chess-like game, should you be so brave as to try it), Checkers, Risk (et al). Winners of these games will get a few more shards to add to their respective collections.

And there will also be a massive tower in the center of the Bastion, designed much like a climbing wall. Get to the top and retrieve the pendant in the set amount of time, and you'll earn another charm towards your bracelet!

As an extra to the ladies of the Bastion, there will be two special things exclusively for them - first off, Pyth will only be usable by ladies. Anyone who identifies as male will simply not receive a reaction from Ptyh should they step in to the pit. AND there will also be a special tug of war game for ladies only, using a chain. Acobi is the God of Abandon, and as such women will be free to do whatever they want today, regardless of their upbringing or beliefs. Go nuts, girls! The girls who win the tug of war will also get another charm, as well as two shards per person on the team that wins.

Evening will bring the next torch, this one adorned with a tower, and a massive feast of much healthier food and drink than what's been offered up until. Even if you eat and drink a great deal, you'll find yourself lacking any hangovers or stomach aches the following morning.

The soft music that's been playing every day of the festival will suddenly quit at around "5pm", and the remainder of the night will be filled with live music played by the NPCs, and even a few PCs should they choose to join in. The music will be in the gazebo with seats set up all around it like an outdoor performance stage, but with enough room up front for spontaneous dancing.

The night ends with this joyful celebration to close out the festival.

[ Anna is pretty small, so its not surprising that she's quietly accepting a charm.

The moment after that, though, her camera comes up.

She's going to record the rest of you-

[ Anna has a new camera, and she knows how to use it.

Unfortunately, she is also around hip height on most of the residents.

What do, survivors. There is a small girl with a camera. Filming. Everything.

[ok yeah that sounds pretty solid]

I hope you're quick on your feet then. Good luck.

...Thank you. [ That was something she should have thought about.

Excuse her while she takes her shoes and stockings off on this side of the fence. That will make her balance better, her shoes have little heels.

[personal profile] dontyoujustwish 2014-01-21 01:18 pm (UTC)(link)
That's sweet of you.

[Rin would be more excited... if she wasn't still slightly hungover. She's getting a bit partied out, actually. Not that she isn't having fun, it's just more partying than most Japanese teenagers her age usually do.

Which is to say most don't do any at all and it's not like she ever participated in her school festivals back home until recently.

So as Aoi is tugging her, the half-demon is whining, tail slumped to the ground and being dragged behind her.]


Whyyyyy are you draggin' me... ?

[It has been a long festival, and the toll of it all, as fun as it has been, is showing even on some one who normally would have enough energy to power a reactor by sheer force of will on her own.

Still, she's curious, and even in her tired slightly slumped state she manages to drag herself over to see what Paar is up to with his gifts.]


What'd y' get?
croceamors: (foundchlorhexidine) (thought < In my blood)

[personal profile] croceamors 2014-01-21 05:43 pm (UTC)(link)
...Well. I do like you. I suppose you're something of a 'friend', as much as I can make those.

Drem, Rin.

[Paarthurnax nods to her as she comes close before looking at his gifts again.]

I believe one is a saddle... The other gifts I am uncertain of their purpose.

[Rin might not look the type, but she actually does enjoy music a lot. Most of her youth was spent in a church choir even. So hearing the music during the festival has been a nice change from the general silence the Bastion usually has.

It stopping startles her a bit, too, but only as long as it takes for Zia to start playing with the other people up in the gazebo. Smiling, she slides her way over to watch from some distance. She would contribute... if she knew more than just church hymns by heart.]

[Rin sidles in closer, lifting up one of the cozies carefully. The thing is huge, nearly as tall as she is, but the shape seems... familiar.]

... socks?

[personal profile] wayofvoice 2014-01-22 12:19 am (UTC)(link)
If it is for my own claws, then it would not fit upon the whole foot. A talon, at best.
dontyoujustwish: (hey let's do that)

[personal profile] dontyoujustwish 2014-01-22 12:32 am (UTC)(link)
You're the closest thing I have to a friend here, so I don't see why we can't just make it official, even if you do only have part of a heart or something.

[personal profile] hellpyre 2014-01-22 12:37 am (UTC)(link)
There's a buncha them here... Maybe they're like leg warmers, but for your talons?
croceamors: (foundchlorhexidine) (thought < In my blood)

[personal profile] croceamors 2014-01-22 12:55 am (UTC)(link)
Well, I am making some amount of progress on it. [Who the hell knows how much, 'tho.] I suppose I should be honored that I'm one of those you like the most.
wayofvoice: (Laas Yah Nir + We grow old by)

[personal profile] wayofvoice 2014-01-22 01:00 am (UTC)(link)
[Said talons lazily clench into the ground and relax as Paarthurnax thinks of them.]

Perhaps, although I do not understand the purpose of such a thing, nor how I shall put them on.
dontyoujustwish: (I'm just sayin')

[personal profile] dontyoujustwish 2014-01-22 01:06 am (UTC)(link)
You really should be. A lot of people are just annoying.
croceamors: (spiralstarfall) (glance < I fell to the floor at the)

[personal profile] croceamors 2014-01-22 01:44 am (UTC)(link)
So you haven't found anyone else you like here?
hellpyre: (pic#6025878)

[personal profile] hellpyre 2014-01-22 04:54 am (UTC)(link)
... I could help!
dontyoujustwish: (toast)

[personal profile] dontyoujustwish 2014-01-22 01:32 pm (UTC)(link)
I've had one or two promising meetings, but it can take a while for people to reveal themselves as jerks.
croceamors: (spiralstarfall) (classy < You're a lazy laugh)

[personal profile] croceamors 2014-01-22 07:01 pm (UTC)(link)
True. Hopefully you'll find someone else worth your time then.
wayofvoice: (Feim Zii Gron + But we will escape it)

[personal profile] wayofvoice 2014-01-22 07:28 pm (UTC)(link)
[But should he really be wearing talon cozies?]

[...Well why not]


If it would not be trouble, it would be appreciated.

Daphnes ...

[ She looks to the catgirl, and then back to the bird. Slowly, she holds a hand out to him, a smile forming on her face. ]

It's nice to meet you, Daphnes. And you as well, Ma'am.

[ Maybe she should show off her bird ... ]
dontyoujustwish: (good listener)

You, too, right? Spending all our time together would be unhealthy emotionally.
