The Cultural Fair!

[wise_maiden]

Who: Everyone's invited!
What: The Cultural Fair
When: June 5th- 12th - admittedly dates are sort of nebulous - set up could have begun as early as the 5th, but given the event recently, more days could have been taken to do it and for people to involve themselves, so it probably "officially" starts a little later (by the 8th at the very least, though work can go on throughout it) - feel free to use your judgement/have fun!
Where: All around the town square!
Summary: Here.
Rating: ... who knows?!



Notes: Booths can be labeled as separate comments! Just put [booth name] or something in the subject line so people can find top level comments easier.

Work probably started for it on the 5th-7/8th for labor purposes, though feel free to use dates to your advantage here! (Even if characters slapdash something at the last minute, it would be fun to see! It would even be encouraged after the crazy from the last event - kind of a way to get back in touch with themselves.)

CHARACTERS ARE WELCOME TO TAG THE LOG FOR INTERACTING WITH OTHERS, NOT JUST BOOTHS, SO FEEL FREE TO TAG IN! Also a character who might not know what's going on is welcome to walk by and question it! And so forth. (Helios and Ikki made posts in regard to it and there have been art club posters around, so anyone could have noticed those as well!)

I'll leave descriptions up to you all as there isn't much that is too uniform about the displays, as everyone is encouraged to be creative about their presentations and how hard the characters worked isn't something I could define for each of you. Just keep in mind that this takes place in the plaza, there shouldn't be an issue with blocking traffic (there may be ropes up to try and keep pathways clear, however!), though it may branch around various points of the square depending on where someone wants a booth located / the number of actual participants. The square will also have a lot of brightly colored signs and decorations indicating what is going on!



For ideas/reference on how it was handled last time, feel free to look through here! There's no official signup, so go forth!

[Air Gates!]

[i_speak_softly]

[What fresh hell hallucination is this. The Malnosso have been drugging Don all week, making him have bizarre visions of tornadoes and giant wings, but he doesn't know what to make of these paper gates, shivering gently in a light breeze. Is this real? Some sort of test?]

[He looks around cautiously, trying to orient himself and determine a course of action.]

[He hasn't yet realized that this is Luceti, and that he himself is invisible, inaudible, and intangible.]

[savedtheworld]

[Aang of course doesn't notice him yet. Instead, he's just hanging around with Momo while waiting for any new volunteers to arrive. He currently walks towards the gates while talking to Momo, who's on his shoulder.]

Come on, Momo! Give the gates a try. I wanna see how good you do! It'll be okay if you fly instead of walk, and I won't laugh if you fail, okay? Let me just get them started!

[And Aang takes in some air and bends it at the gates - they begin to move at a good speed.]

[i_speak_softly]

[Don can't see Aang from his position amongst the gates, but he can hear these instructions, which only halfway make sense. When the gates start to spin, though, he evades them on reflex. Being a ninja, he's impressively skilled at weaving through the narrow spaces. Being a Turtle with a huge domed shell, it's not exactly easy.]

[savedtheworld]

[Aang keeps talking with Momo a bit more near an opening.]

Come on, Momo. How about I go through and you follow me? It'll be safe!

[And Aang starts to moves through the gates, smoothly and fluidly. It's something he's done since he was young, and airbending is as natural to him as breathing itself, so he's moving quite well and gracefully, blissfully unaware of any nearby turtles just yet. While Momo just flaps up as Aang enters the gates and instead glides above them.]

[Don was not expecting to see a kid and a flying monkey in this funhouse obstacle course. Neither seems to notice that they have company, so as Aang moves obliviously into Don's path, the Turtle calls out:]

Hey! Watch --

[And then he stumbles backwards, his body tingling strangely as he falls literally through the gates.]

[Well. At least now he knows it's another illusion.]

[savedtheworld]

[And unless there's something Aang could have noticed, he makes it to the other side fine and looks up at Momo hovering overhead.]

Momo, you didn't go through! Way to be a real chicken-possum. Do I have to set it up again?

[i_speak_softly]

[Unaware of his current state of undetectability, Don circles around the outside of the gates to inaudibly address this potentially-real person.]

Hi. Do you know where we are?

[savedtheworld]

[But Aang makes no sign of noticing. He just focuses on Momo, who chitters at him.]

Come on, I'll try to find you a leechi nut if you try.

[i_speak_softly]

[Rude. Don takes another step closer. He thinks he's seen this kid before, but it's a little hard to organize his memories right now.]

Hello?
