The Cultural Fair

[wise_maiden]

Who: Everyone! Or as close to that as possible, please. \o/
What: The Cultural Fair
When: April 25th-26th, though the earlier set-up days (22nd, 23rd, and keeping everything dry on the 24th) are also encouraged to help get a feel for it
Where: All around the town square
Summary: Also here.
Rating: ... is this a thing?

Note: 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 was probably started for it on the 22nd-23rd for labor purposes, sheltering things from the weather on the 24th, and the actual Fair is on the 25th-26th, so using any of those dates and figuring out where your characters are helping would be good. 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.

I'll leave the descriptions up to you all as there probably isn't much that is too uniform about the displays, as everyone is encouraged to be creative about it. Think of it as something on a much smaller scale than the festival from a year ago, definitely, but how hard the characters worked isn't something I could define for each of you. That said there are plenty of unique sights, so enjoy browsing! Thank you!

(Also, please add your name tags!)

They sure are! Hey Milkshake, order up!

[Oswald grabs a mug from the table, but the cow just gives a yawn and turns her head away in response. One of her character traits, sadly, is that she's pretty lazy. Oswald just chuckles nervously.]

She's uh... Eheheh. She does that sometimes. [Fine, he'll just walk over to her and get the milk himself, then.]

[talentsgirl]

...no pressure, you know. I'm not all that thirsty.

[kingofwaste]

Naw, it's fine!

[He walks over to the cow and crouches down beside her to place the mug on the ground, just below her udder. Then he gets up again and moves to stand behind her, trying to grab a hold of her tail. The cow, feeling especially mischievous, swings the tail just out of Oswald's reach.]

Milkshake! C'mon, stop foolin' around. We've got a customer!

[The cow just snickers silently, still moving her tail aside whenever Oswald tries to make a snatch for it. Toons will be toons.]

[talentsgirl]

It seems like she's more interested in playing than in milking... why do you need to grab her tail?

[kingofwaste]

It's how she works. [snatch swipe.] It's sort of a visual gag, you'll understand when you- [snatch.] see it.

[And then he finally succeeds in grabbing a hold of the tail. He gives it a strong yank to straighten it out, eliciting a loud 'moo' from the cow.]

Okay, here goes! [He moves the tail up and down like it's a pump mechanism of some sort, and after a few tries the milk comes pouring out of the udder, into the mug. Ohoh, how ingenius.]

[talentsgirl]

Wow, that's... definitely impressive. What was your name again?

[Mickey?]

[kingofwaste]

I'm the one and only Oswald the Lucky Rabbit! But you can call me Oswald.

[He grins and picks up the mug, holding it out for Molly to take.] And you are?

[talentsgirl]

[...not Mickey Mouse, then? Curses.

But she is tactful enough to not bring that up.]

I'm Molly. Molly Carpenter. [She takes the mug and gives him a cheeky grin.] But you can call me Molly.

[kingofwaste]

Nice to meetcha, Molly!

[He holds out his hand so she can shake it, despite the fact that she's already holding a mug. This can work, really.]
