lap eight // day 271 (open) // IT'S PARTY TIME

Who: EVERYBODY
Open: Open
When: 271
Where: In the empty space around the monument!
What:

PARTY MINGLE GO
Format: DO AS YOU PLEASE AND FOLLOW YOUR HEART
Warnings: If anything comes up, put it in the subject lines!


[As everyone wakes up bright and early this morning, it isn't going to be hard to miss what's changed in the empty space around the monument Just in case, though, signs with indicating arrows line the campground where the Bastion's newest guests are staying, reading, in Ura, "This way to the party!"—wait, party?

Oh yes. Anyone Aoi had managed to grab the day before ought to be prepared for this. A great big banner stretched on two poles over the monument reads "Welcome to the Bastion!", written in Ura again; there's a little variation between the handwriting, since Zanya wrote some and Zahi wrote others.

Every last piece of the area that can have something hanging from it does: Zuko's lanterns hang off all the nearby trees, and her streamers, mostly red and sometimes gold, line absolutely everything, including but not limited to all the chairs and tables Ryu got together and helped arrange. Other things you're apt to find everywhere: flowers. Between the Psiioniic, the Disciple, Ghaleon, and Crona, there are more flowers than anyone could ever figure out what to do with. Aoi's best has been done, though: garlands are hung up around furniture, tied around tree trunks, woven through branches, strung between the branches of adjacent trees, wrapped 'round the monument, and so on and so on. A lot of care has been put into making sure they look good instead of just being thrown every which-way.

A few mismatched vases sitting on the tables have some flowers sticking out of them, too—perhaps exactly enough in each to make a flower crown, hmm? There are no party hats, so some improvising will have to be done.

There's all manner of tasty treats placed on all the tables, of course: a platter of picked donuts is to be expected, given Aoi's hand in all this (and thanks to Naegi, there are plenty to go around and they're arranged almost elaborately), but Rin, Zia, and Mirielle have provided all manner of homemade goodies that aren't just Aoi's favorite desserts. Bon's made a cake that Aoi has proudly placed in the center of one round table and surrounded with the rest of the desserts.

Instead of food, one table has a chalkboard propped up on it instead, with a box of colorful chalk beside it. Aoi's already written a small message in the corner—Thank you, everyone! with a smiley face beside it—and doodled a couple of flowers around the edges. The board's five feet long and there's plenty of chalk to go around, so there's certainly room for collaborating on something!

Not far from all the food sits the enormous stack of Legos Aoi purchased at Ibuki's suggestion. Legos. Please keep your shoes on, for the love of god. Some of them have already been arranged to form half the outside of a floor and a chunk of wall up to Aoi's chest so everyone has an idea of what's supposed to be done with things, but there are more than enough to start new projects. On the other side of the monument, closer to the collection of shop buildings than the gazebo, the soccer nets Otoha and Takamura built out of Skyway scraps have been set up (flowers have been woven in and out of the netting, of course). Aoi's brought out not one, but two of the soccer balls given to her during the festival, just in case of a soccer ball malfunction or if the game gets big enough that everyone decides rules are for losers and the only way to play soccer is with multiple things to kick. In the absence of paint, Aoi has decided to use more streamers as field markers.

At the gazebo not far off (naturally, it's covered in streamers and flowers as well), there's a set of speakers and an amplifier ready for use—Ibuki's, of course, and the little note Aoi's written that reads "For Ibuki-chan!" (with the wrong characters for her name, but points for effort) confirms it. Her equipment from Colin has all been set up, too: the spotlights on the top and bottom of the gazebo will shine in all sorts of colors when Ibuki turns them on, and there are some additional bits and pieces to the sound system to help make everything that much noisier. Aside from hanging decor, the space in front of the gazebo has been left empty so that there's enough room to dance!

To the side of the gazebo and just behind it is the unreasonably long rope Shing somehow managed to scrounge up. Like absolutely everything else, it has a chain of flowers wrapped around it. A streamer's been tied around the very center of it in a bow, and hopefully that makes its intended purpose as a tool of tug-of-war obvious enough.

If Aoi has anything to say about it, this is going to be the best goddamn welcome party ever.

Enjoy the festivities!

[Of course N isn't just going to be left behind and to his own devices when a party is going on!

... mostly because he had about four Pokemon crying out that if he didn't go he was going to get sat on and summarily dragged following that.

Gosh it's like they want him to be social or something.

So there he is with his own menagerie (Woobat, Swablu, Zorark and Darumaka) not that far from where Hilda is standing. He's being his usual quiet, distant self, but his Pokemon are more than happy to pick up the social slack for their trainer. Darumaka even makes a food run for all of them, round little body wobbling back on tiny feet while carrying several plates of food for the lot of them.]

[Hey Darumaka, you want a hand with that? Well, Colin's going to snag a plate or two to help you on your way back.]

Looks like the kids are eager to see you enjoy yourself, N.

[Colin smiles over at him.]

They considered that better for you than letting you hermit. Take that as you will.

[He joins Darumaka in passing out food, pausing to give each Pokemon a gentle pat on the head in turn, if they'll take it.]

[personal profile] unwrittenformula 2015-02-03 11:05 pm (UTC)(link)
[Of course they'll take it, and Swablu will add in an overly affectionate nuzzle because you're his second favorite person, Colin.]

I don't see anything wrong with doing that. It's not like I would have been missed in this crowd.
freedom_engineer: (Contemplative)

[personal profile] freedom_engineer 2015-02-03 11:29 pm (UTC)(link)
[Yes. Good. Swablu/Altaria, you get a hug when you nuzzle, 'cause he likes you a lot.]

They may want you to branch out a little. Probably worried is all. ... Either that, or they wanted to mingle, and they didn't want to leave you alone while they did. That's definitely an option too.

[Have a redheaded, green-dressed woman walking up towards N... And being careful to not step on or trip over any of the Pokemon. Megaera has apparently decided to try and meet more new people today, and the fellow with several very smart animal minions or friends or something seems like a good choice to try talking to.]

Ah, hello.

[personal profile] twinked_witch 2015-02-04 06:17 am (UTC)(link)

[You picked the wrong person to have a conversation with then!

I've been here a while.

[... yup.]

[personal profile] twinked_witch 2015-02-04 03:42 pm (UTC)(link)
... Not entirely so much.

[Megaera glanced towards N's Pokemon associates.]

Lively bunch, these fellows. Your friends, I presume?
