Happy Oswald Day!

[kingofwaste]

Who: Oswald the Lucky Rabbit and you. Yes, you there.
What: Oswald Day!
When: September 5th, all day long.
Where: The village.
Summary: Like last year, Oswald is celebrating his anniversary abundantly with his self-proclaimed Oswald Day. There will be festivities all around.
Rating: That really depends on the characters threading, but Oswald's trying to spread cheer.

[It's the 5th of September, and so the long-awaited day has come. Oswald the Lucky Rabbit's anniversary! Plans have been in the works for months now, and he's finished his preparations in the nick of time. Early in the morning, he leaves a message on the journal systems similar to last year's, complete with S.O.S. Brigade promotion. Then he heads out to show both New Feathers and veteran Luceti residents alike that this place can be fun if you let it.

The schedule is roughly the same as last year's. A loud parade through the streets in the morning, a cartoon marathon in the late afternoon and in the evening, there will be fireworks! It's there for anyone and everyone to enjoy, so go ahead and mingle. Either seek Oswald out or enjoy the festivities with a friend. Oswald will do his best to spread the celebrations throughout the entire village.

And yes, there are subcomments with more details for each of the main festivities.]

[Grune will definitely join in. Once the float goes by wherever she happens to be at the time, she'll applaud and then just sort of...tag along after it. Hey, it's tradition.]

[kingofwaste]

[Eeexcellent. Oswald rummages through his pile of instruments and pulls out a small drum. He holds it out for Grune to take.]

Happy Oswald Day, Grune!

[lostinmyway]

[She accepts it happily and give it a quick tap to listen to its sound.]

Thank you! Happy Oswald Day, Oswald!

[kingofwaste]

How've you been? Still doing that memory garden thing?

[He hasn't been to the garden much, himself. It's the sort of thing that reminds him of Ortensia. Still, he thinks it's a nice idea.]

[lostinmyway]

Yes, that's right! It's getting nice and big.

[She smiles.] You should come see all the flowers. They're very pretty.

[kingofwaste]

Yeah? Well, I'll stop by when I have the time, but you know me. Busy, busy, busy! [He gives a bit of a nervous laugh. Oh, he's so bad at giving excuses with a straight pokerface.]

[lostinmyway]

[Lucky for Oswald /ducks, Grune is terrible at telling when people are being...not quite truthful with her.]

That's all right. Just come whenever you can.

[kingofwaste]

Yeah, I'll do that! Definitely. ["Whenever he can" is a pretty subjective term, he can weasel his way out of it a bit longer.]

[lostinmyway]

[He can basically weasel his way out of it forever, given what Grune's memory is like.]

And when you come for a visit, I can show you all the flowers!

[kingofwaste]

[There's a good chance that he will. Still, that doesn't mean he shouldn't show interest in Grune's hobby.]

You've got a lot of 'm in there by now, huh?

[lostinmyway]

Yes, that's right. Everyone is planting lots of flowers and trees and plants. The garden is so pretty now!

[kingofwaste]

That does sound pretty great! It'll be a shame when winter comes and those things stop blossoming.

[lostinmyway]

Oh, but the garden needs time to rest, so it's okay. That means everything will be even more beautiful again in the spring.

[kingofwaste]

Yeah... Yeah, that's true. [His ears droop for a second, but he pulls himself together again quickly enough.]

So let's keep this parade going, huh?

[lostinmyway]

All right!

[She taps on her drum again.] This is going to be fun!
