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.)

Displays of lights in the sky are hardly a unique thing. Dozens of societies have such things... albeit, not all of them with the use of explosives.

["Hardly unique"? But they look so... shiny.] How do they not have ex... e-expo... those?

[tellmejohn]

Plasma, pulse cores, high intensity lights. A myriad of ways.

[tailasoldastime]

I... see. [He doesn't really - he knows none of those things. But this man doesn't need to know that.]

[tellmejohn]

[Well then.] Ah. And what is your name?

[tailasoldastime]

... Beast.

[tellmejohn]

Scorpius.

[And then he's going to turn and walk off. Y e p ]

[Huh? He straightens himself a little as he watches him go. What is with that man? He is... definitely strange. Oh well. Now he can at least watch the fireworks in peace.]
