Rating: PG at the most



For the first time a in a while, a New Feather Party is taking place! Everyone has been working hard, making sure that everything is ready for the big day. The school cafeteria is decorated with streamers, some spring flowers and a hand-painted Welcome banner, placed right where everyone can see it. Most of the foods are simple party snacks: cakes, cookies, sandwiches and the like. However, Rin has hauled over a grill and is providing some cooked foods.

The most important part is the booths. The various organizations in Luceti have been invited to set up booths and tables in order to recruit new members and to inform the new feathers of their existence. There's even a general information booth, run by Marita Covarrubias, so New Feathers can ask any questions they have about Luceti. After all, when adjusting to a new place, information about your surroundings is the most important thing!

Near the end of the party, once it's a little darker out, there's even a small fireworks show. It's a nice way a party. After all, who doesn't like fireworks?

That makes sense. Not a lot of people will want to hike out to somewhere for a demonstration...but I'm sure a lot of people could appreciate benches! It can't be comfortable sitting on the edge of the fountain all the time...

[Pilouette can't help but smile. She's happy that she's able to be of some help here after all.]

Maybe you could let people help out a little bit in the demonstration, too! If they get to help out, maybe they'll be more likely to join the guild!

[knightofratatosk]

That's perfect! Get people interested by giving them a chance to try getting involved... I can't believe I didn't think of that before. Of course they'd be more interested if they got to try working on one of the projects for themselves.

... hey, what about you? Would you like to join the guild?

[ribbonbon]

Yeah, see-

[Wait, what?]

Huh?! Me? Uh...w-well, I'm not actually that good with like, build-y stuff and I'm not very strong or anything s-so I don't know if I'd really be much help...

[knightofratatosk]

Don't worry, we do a lot of things besides just building stuff! You know, like finding things, maybe helping people weed their garden or paint a house... whatever they need to be done. Anyone can join as long as they want to help out.

[ribbonbon]

["...as long as they want to help." Pilouette thinks about this for a second. As someone who is pretty average and lacking much skill, especially compared to many people in the enclosure, she's always looking for news ways that she can help out and contribute. Emil does really seem to want new members. And if it will let her help out more...]

...Well...I guess it would be nice to have new ways to help people out. And if there are other things you do besides building, maybe...

[After a few more brief moments of thought, she smiles broadly and nods.]

...Okay! I'm in!

[knightofratatosk]

[Emil wouldn't exactly call himself the skilled type either-- most of what he can do boils down to cooking and the occasional odd task. Fighting doesn't really count, since it's Ratatosk who takes care of all of that for him. But if Yuri trusted him to run Brave Vesperia, then he's going to do his best!]

Great! I'm sure we can find plenty of ways for you to help. And besides, you might even be able to learn how to do some new things in the process. I didn't know the first thing about building stuff before I joined, and now I'm pretty good with a hammer and nails.

[ribbonbon]

It would be nice to learn how to do more stuff...Knowing how to do lots of things really comes in handy in a place like this, after all. I'll do my very best to learn, but until then I'll do whatever I can to help out! E...Even though I'm still not really good at very much.

[knightofratatosk]

What kind of things would you want to learn how to do? You know, just so I can keep it in mind for later.

[ribbonbon]

...A-Actually, I'm not sure. Now that I think about it, I think that since I got here, I've just been learning things as they came up.

[She laughs sheepishly.]

I-I should probably be thinking about that kind of thing...!

[knightofratatosk]

[Emil laughs too, since he's been pretty much the same way ever since he arrived. He hasn't set out to learn anything in particular; he's just sort of picked up skills here and there.]

That's okay-- there's nothing wrong with that, either. Sometimes that's the best way to learn things you never knew you'd be interested in.

[ribbonbon]

Well, I'll just do my best to learn whatever I can! Since I don't know anything about building things, I bet I'll learn a lot of stuff no matter what happens!

[knightofratatosk]

Exactly! And if you do think of anything in particular you want to learn, just let me know. I'm sure I can find someone here who could teach you how to do it.
