[Tanabata in the form of few sub-threads below! There's going to be four:

One, for people performing in the pageant, details will be in the top comment of the subthread, but this one if for people to make direct responses to their appeals as well as to write out what they were and what they do.

Two, for general mingling during the pageant. For the judges and audience and all that jazz.

Three, for the wishes people write up for Tanabata - eighter just to note them or for people to spy on your writing them or tying them up or reacting to them once up or whatever!

Four, finally, is at the end of the night when there are fireworks being launched to go with all this stuff, for people to mingle/watch the show

Timeline

Between: Go make wishes and stuff
10:00ish: Fireworks]

To be blunt, it's a holiday between star-crossed lovers. A girl named Orihime and a boy named Hikoboshi were seperated by the milky way. So it's only around this time that they can make up and be together.

As for making wishes and what not, that's just how we celebrate it. Honestly, Tanabata wouldn't be how it is if we weren't able to make wishes.

[cherishedmiracle]

Ohh, I see... that sounds a little sad, actually. [Only one time for them to be together...!] I wonder what Tanabata would be like if making wishes wasn't a part of it, then...?

[cuethemasong]

It would pretty boring I'd say. If you don't have a wish to motivate you, then it would be pretty tough to keep going.

[cherishedmiracle]

Mm, I guess that is true... But you could always make wishes anyway, couldn't you..? [without a holiday saying so --]

[cuethemasong]

that's true. For example... Making wishes on a star would be an easy one.

[cherishedmiracle]

Or when blowing on a dandelion.

[cuethemasong]

Huh? You still do that?

[cherishedmiracle]

...Eh? Well, I haven't seen any of them in a while, so I haven't, but... You can make wishes on those too, can't you?

[cuethemasong]

That's true. Although, it's been a while since I've heard it mentioned before... The last time I did that, I was little.

[cherishedmiracle]

Ohh, I see... Um... what about wishing on 11:11 then?

[cuethemasong]

Hmm...? That'a a new one. How come it's on 11:11?

[cherishedmiracle]

I'm not sure exactly, but they say that if you just happen to look at a clock and it's that time, it's some sort of auspicious or spiritual sign. So when people notice it's that time, they can make a wish on it.

[cuethemasong]

Oh! That does remind me of when special things happen whenever the day, month and year are the same number. Like 7/7/7 or soemthing like that.

[cherishedmiracle]

Ohh... Yes, it's basically like that! And I think when people make wishes on 11:11, they're supposed to kiss the clock showing the time if they can. [...it's weird okay]

[This would be the perfect chance for him to tease her, but the words do not come flying out for some reason... ARGH.]

[cuethemasong]

[CLEARS HIS THROAT.]

... Have you ever kissed anyone before?

--E-eh...?! What's this.. [all of a sudden...] U-um... I've never--

[cherishedmiracle]

[...wait... during that Valentine's experiment... with Ling...]

[cherishedmiracle]

[...fhdskjfhkds oh gosh...]

I-I... m-maybe... once... [Her voice gets progressively more quiet as she says it but... yep...]

[HOLD THE FUCKING PRESSES]

[cuethemasong]

[Then again, he's not one to talk since his cousin sneaked one on him while she was disappearing to God Knows Where... Not that it was mutual.]

[cuethemasong]

S-seriously?! Then does this mean that you're going out with someone right now?!

[Might... sounds a little more desperate and worried than he wanted to sound.]

[cherishedmiracle]

[oh god NONONO...]

N-no! I-I'm not... going out with anyone... it um... it happened around Valentine's Day, back when everyone was acting really strange during an experiment...

[cuethemasong]

[AH... That makes him feel relieved. He doesn't understand why, but it's a weight thrown off his chest!] Really? Well, that's...

[... Good? Great? He's not sure what to say there before she continues on.]

Oh yeah... I've heard about that day. Someone tried beating me up after asking about it, but we got over it.

[cherishedmiracle]

[It's okay, Nagisa's not quite sure how to feel about it either! Though for completely different reasons, since she feels kinda bad for basically losing her first kiss to someone she wasn't even actually dating whoops. But oh well.]

...E-eh?! R-really...? I'm glad they didn't do anything like that to you...
