Rating: ★ Please accept this!
After months of planning and roping in poor, innocent people to help out with some of the work it's finally done. An actual festival, all for the starfish.

The morning of the 14th mostly consists of people arriving, the stalls being brought in and decorations being put up. It's all about the preparation! Most of the decorating consists of banners and streamers you might find at a school festival, all hung around doors and windows and between the buildings in the plaza. And star shaped pieces of card being stuck up here and there in places too. If the decorations don't tell you what's going on then the banners saying 'STARFISH FESTIVAL' certainly will.

Come midday the festival is in full swing. There's plenty of food at many of the stalls (either prepared by Fuuko and the other girls or brought in by other villagers) ranging from cake, ice cream and different kinds of sweet things, to starfish tea, sandwiches, all sorts of festival fare. There are a few games set up too where it's possible to win starfish related prizes like pins, badges and even plush toys and some stalls are even giving out wind chimes. Finally there's also a little entertainment provided with music being played in the background throughout most of the festival. (You should totally go listen to Kotomi giving her very own violin recital.)

By night time when most of the food is gone there will be a fireworks display to bring an end to the festival. Hopefully the Starfish Festival would be a day to remember!

(You didn't need to receive an invite in order to come, that was just the girl's attempt at getting word of the festival out there. The festival is open to anyone and everyone to come along and have a good time.)

midday too

[Since he's just browsing all the stalls -- that yakisoba looks good. Just like he used to make with the party... He hasn't had it in a while though.]

Um-- I'd like a yakisoba, please!

[cuethemasong]

On it! [STARTS A-COOKING.] Hoooh~ It's good to be in business!

[subsultive]

Have you had a lot of business, sir? [Mmmnnggh there's nothing he likes more than watching food being made.]

[cuethemasong]

Heh heh... Back at home, I made all of this for everyone at school. I'm glad that it's just as popular over here.

[subsultive]

You must be really good at cooking then! I'm pretty decent myself, actually.

[cuethemasong]

Oh yeah? What kinds of things have you cooked?

[subsultive]

All sorts of things. Well, I mean, I had help - we all usually chipped in with the cooking while we were on the road - but it isn't like I set anything on fire... I roasted a chicken this past December though, and it turned out pretty good.

[RIP SIR CLOCKSALOT.]

[cuethemasong]

You travel around a lot then? [Shall flip some of those noodles in the meantime.] Hold on... You ended up cooking something around here?

[subsultive]

Something like that. [To both questions!] I had a chicken in November because of the experiment-- I ended up adopting her during it and I guess she got on my housemate's nerves and they... kind of... butchered her and made me cook her without knowing it was actually her... It wasn't that hard to figure out and I was pretty sour at them for a few days, but I guess it was for the best.

[cuethemasong]

Whoa, that's... At least it didn't cross a road or something. [...] You can have some extra food on me.
