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!)

[Siiiigh. In a small gruff voice:] I wish it wasn't.

[mythmaker]

You wish it wasn't your name? Do you have any nicknames, Beast-san?

[tailasoldastime]

I... [Really, it is his nickname, but would saying his real name really help? Wouldn't it just sound strange? No, just... just leave it.] No.

[mythmaker]

Hmm...do you mind if I give you a nickname, then? Like...maybe Momo?

[tailasoldastime]

Huh? [He's been asked something similar once before, but...] M... "Momo"?

[mythmaker]

Yes. I think Momo would be a good name for you, don't you think? Do you mind if I call you that?

[tailasoldastime]

I... uh... ih, I... [It's a strange name, maybe unfitting for him... b-but she says it's a good name for him. Is it? He doesn't know. But should he refuse?] I-I, uh... n-n... no?

[mythmaker]

Ah...[She saddens, frowning. That's not very helpful, is it...?] You don't like it?

[tailasoldastime]

I... [Oh no. Oh no, now she's sad. What to do, Beast, what to do?] N-no it's, uh, I do, I-I like it, it's... good.

[mythmaker]

My, my, so you really do like it, then? I'm so relieved. I couldn't ever bring myself to call you such a mean name, Momo-san.

[tailasoldastime]

[Phew, he got out of that one. Now he'll just have to get used to being called... "Momo"... and there's that "san" again. It's different from "Beast" anyway.] I... uh... thank you.

[mythmaker]

Please don't thank me, Momo-san. I'm just glad I was able to perform for you today.

[She's treating him so professionally right now! ...She has no idea what's really going on, either, but it's fun.]

[tailasoldastime]

A... alright. [He slowly nods, shifting his attention over to the table full of t-shirts.]

[mythmaker]

Please, feel free to take whatever you'd like, Momo-san. I'll see you again, won't I?

[She'll move to speak to another audience member soon, but not until she's properly said goodbye!]

[tailasoldastime]

I, uh... [How does he know? This village is so big. But he wouldn't mind seeing her again... he guesses?] ... Sure.
