The Cultural Fair!

[wise_maiden]

Who: Everyone's invited!
What: The Cultural Fair
When: June 5th- 12th - admittedly dates are sort of nebulous - set up could have begun as early as the 5th, but given the event recently, more days could have been taken to do it and for people to involve themselves, so it probably "officially" starts a little later (by the 8th at the very least, though work can go on throughout it) - feel free to use your judgement/have fun!
Where: All around the town square!
Summary: Here.
Rating: ... who knows?!



Notes: 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 probably started for it on the 5th-7/8th for labor purposes, though feel free to use dates to your advantage here! (Even if characters slapdash something at the last minute, it would be fun to see! It would even be encouraged after the crazy from the last event - kind of a way to get back in touch with themselves.)

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. (Helios and Ikki made posts in regard to it and there have been art club posters around, so anyone could have noticed those as well!)

I'll leave descriptions up to you all as there isn't much that is too uniform about the displays, as everyone is encouraged to be creative about their presentations and how hard the characters worked isn't something I could define for each of you. Just keep in mind that this takes place in the plaza, there shouldn't be an issue with blocking traffic (there may be ropes up to try and keep pathways clear, however!), though it may branch around various points of the square depending on where someone wants a booth located / the number of actual participants. The square will also have a lot of brightly colored signs and decorations indicating what is going on!



For ideas/reference on how it was handled last time, feel free to look through here! There's no official signup, so go forth!

[ Twilight's eyes glow white and the sunlight seems to dim around them. ]

It means to take heed what you ask, Master Aang! You may not like the answers.

[ Breaking character for a moment, she winks. ] It means the predictions may come true, or they may not. But either way, it's fun!

[fourthgenerationprincess]

I don't know! Your future, what's waiting for you at home, how much longer you'll be here... ask, and you shall receive answers!

[fourthgenerationprincess]

"That sounds like fun! Can you teach me? I've always wanted to learn tarot!" All pretense of telling the future is forgotten.

[knightofratatosk]

What? No, I'm... well, I mean, I am dressed like a chef, but I'm not actually a real chef. I'm just dressed up like the Wonder Chef for my world's booth.

[fourthgenerationprincess]

Well, maybe! Or that might just be Luceti's weirdness.

Please, have a seat! [ She magics a little chair into existence behind him, just the right size. ]

[fourthgenerationprincess]

They're like friendship bracelets. I could add an enchantment to them that gives mild protection to the bearer!

[fourthgenerationprincess]

[ She shakes her head. ] Well, to me they look just like an eyesore. No ornamentation at all!

By the way, I'm Twilight Sparkle.

[faithfulflame]

I do. I was sent home, after all. Why wouldn't I?

[It's too much, frankly, to believe that they'd just fabricate her going home for so long.] Things changed, but in the end everything works out for the best.

And I think one's enough. It's awfully sweet, and I wouldn't want to get fat.

[acuity]

That's definitely a possibility, but... what could we scare him with? I haven't read many books on this subject, I'm not sure what to do!

[ NEW EXPERIENCES but also clueless now what. ]

[complicatedliar]

I'm afraid that peaceful and well-mannered beards have no place in Asgard.

[complicatedliar]

He rested his chin in his hand, leaning forward. "Really."

[complicatedliar]

"No true son of Asgard will let anything stand between him and his beverage, Derek. That should be plain." He grins.

[complicatedliar]

It only displays your ignorance of the culture of Asgard.

[He smirks.]

One of the greatest traditions of the realm, that. Poking things with sticks.

[complicatedliar]

Obviously you're just a sad little quitter like myself.

[complicatedliar]

You know Steve, I read this utterly fascinating book recently. I found it in the library, by a mortal named Freud. And well... I needn't go into details, I trust, but by his standards Stark's tower is rather representative of something naughty on the skyline. Which I suppose makes sense, considering how short and egotistical Stark is, come to think of it.

At any rate, the horns make fetching camouflage. There are children about, you know.

[complicatedliar]

[Loki laughs.]

The best bits of the realm, you know.

[Another laugh.]

It's called hákarl. Give a try. Your mouth will never be the same again.

[250mhzwabl]

[Jack looks up from his library-loaned novel, lifting an eyebrow pointedly (and with more than a bit of a frown) at Eugene.]

Listen, I told you, the foxtrot is the work of the devil.

[He re-crosses his feet, right trainer conspicuously marked LEFT along the side, craning his head to look at Max.]

And you, sir, have a strange way of making the zombie apocalypse seem pastorally simple.

[twinlionfists]

[Hinata gives the other girl a confused smile.]

No, my vision is perfectly fine, thank you. Is there...is there some reason why you thought I was visually impaired?

[tokennonbender]

[Erm...]

Ah. It's just...your eyes. They're blank and white. I've only ever seen people like that when they're blind.

[250mhzwabl]

Eugh. [Jack gives the noise of disgust with fantastic affability, settling in at the beard-making station as soon as he secures himself some mead. He reasons, probably correctly, that boozy arts and crafts are the best arts and crafts.] Eugene would take me into the backyard, hose me down, and make me sleep there. And I can't say I'd blame him.

[before_my_darkness]

[ She turns around and looks at the chair for a moment, then sits down and turns back to Twilight. ]

Alright. What now?

[complicatedliar]

He'd be right to do so. And it still would do nothing for the smell.

[Loki grins.]

He might not recognize you with the beard. Perhaps you could escape unscathed and he'd just think you were a transient.

[before_my_darkness]

[ It would probably be a lot more of a problem if she realized that Twila had been affecting her at all... and also if she weren't still being affected now. Oops. ]

I am! There's so many strange things here. Like those. [ She points to the spells as they make another pass around her. ] I had no idea people could have different things like this.

[250mhzwabl]

Gosh, just what I've always wanted. A life as a stinky vagrant. You're practically Santa Claus, Loki.

[complicatedliar]

I'm far more handsome than Santa Claus.

Think of it as a life of freedom. And I'll give you a stick with which you might poke things.
