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!

Learn humor!

[seleniahymn]

Or you could learn one that others could actually understand?

[falenandawn]

[...Well he wouldn't put it quite like Tear did, bit...] Such a thing might gain you better responses to your jokes, too.

[noitatnacni]

Okay. Just make sure you hold on to that towel.

[For this Zatanna skips the illusions and the stage tricks, opting to go straight for the real deal. So she gestures to the towel when she mentions it, a natural enough move, although the words she speaks next might appear to be anything but.]

Lewot nrut otni a tah!

[It's the power of transformation, and the towel lifts and warps whether Zuko holds on or lets it fall. Within a few seconds the material changes, from terrycloth to manipulated gossamer, the towel transforms into a black top hat.]

[generalflirt]

The class was the joke! The class was the joke! Who would even teach a class like that!

[noitatnacni]

You've got it. Never heard of Iron Man, but my dad worked with Superman in the Justice League. [Said ever so matter-of-factly. It's not really bragging so much as it is how Zatanna's life has gone for the past several years. Her dad's been fighting crime ever since she could remember, and then a couple of years ago, he got recruited.]

Yeah, something like that. There's a group of us back home who work with the League sometimes. Or go out on our own. [They are teenagers.] I'm the only magician, though.

[twinlionfists]

[She's unsure how to answer that, so she heads forward, looking at all of the booths available. She wants something of note to catch his attention so that she might slip away.

If that was even possible with Kida-kun.]

[generalflirt]

[Oh it can. Specifically, it can in the form of that green dog thing over there. Let's veer over and see what's up with that. Things got awkward just now anyway]

[neversurrender]

I just might take you up on that.

Even though I've been here almost a year, I've had yet to visit the beach.

[neversurrender]

Well...this is what it used to look like. It's been damaged since then.

[neversurrender]

It's nothing but an idea for now. But...yeah, I think I might just do that.

[rather_be_surfing]

I'll bring 'em up for you sometime, then. I'm usually at the dome in the morning, so that'd probably be the best time.

...Is it strange not to be doing that here?

[rather_be_surfing]

If the women are willing to fight, I agree with you one hundred percent. Rudyard Kipling had it right.

That's me, mister charming.

[Only...not really, at least not to angry bikers and the vampires he hunted down.]

[rather_be_surfing]

Sounds complicated, especially if the effects are more powerful than what people can do with the spirits here.

[Animals!]

[breezing]

Jack Sparrow! The one Buffy knows.

[Animals!]

[breezing]

[ SHE'S SO TOUCHED, or would be if she knew that. ...Well, she'd also force him to meet more people, so...

Spotting Chien has an instant cheering effect on the younger Lucetian - although considering that Ikki is normally cheerful 24/7, this is basically lie stuffing her full of sunshine after she was already full of rainbows. ]

Chien! Cer, Ber! You all came! Oh, do you like the sculptures? Katara and grandpa made them.

[Animals!]

[breezing]

[ LIKE ANYONE WOULD, Prince Petunia is clearly the star of the show, here.

Ikki doesn't seem to mind the slow reaction - if anything, she's pleased by the attention her beloved pet is receiving. ]

That's right! It was a while ago, but I'm glad you remember me! Starfish are your favorites, right?

[Air Gates!]

[breezing]

Oh! I thought you came from the cultural fair, sorry! ...But yeah! These are the air gates. And I move them by airbending - it's...

[ Well, Makie saw it in action, so how to explain? ] ...It's kind of our world's "magic", I guess, bending. I have airbending, but some of the others have different types: fire, water, or earth.

[rather_be_surfing]

I've already been out a few times, helping a friend out. kinda thinking of joining her there sometimes. It's a good beach. Good waves, too.

[all7seas]

"So not to the musk, then? The musk isn't doing it for you?" It had been a few days since his last proper bathe.

[Animals!]

[rather_be_surfing]

That Jack.

Yeah, I've met him a few times. Seems to be all right,

[neversurrender]

I didn't know there was anyone living out on the beach. I'll have to go by there sometime.

[folklorist]

You. You don't have a world?

[ Oh dear. Helios looks entirely puzzled by this and a bit disconcerted. ] I-I apologize I didn't realize...

[all7seas]

Buffy will never, ever forgive her. "Oh, I dunno; little Jackies mucking things up? No one will thank me for that."

It's such a tender, painful topic, particularly after what happened with Joyce on that Mission. Jack shakes his head, dreadlocks jangling.

"No matter. Why aren't you contributing any culture to this affair?"

[all7seas]

"Gambling. 'S called gambling. Pirates LIKE to gamble!" He said this with such an honest look on his face, really.
