STARDROP CELEBRATION: FINAL DAY

[starhuemod]

LET'S PARTY!
premise | rules | taken | pick-up

A. Arrivals and Much More

You’re here because you were dropped somewhere that tried sending you home, or you're someone with a call to the heart to explore the vast universe. The buses run at odd schedules, so please pardon any interruptions! I hope you fellas make yourselves at home, here!

[ Marjorie’s whole speech rings through your ears as you begin to explore the area. It seems a few people who arrived on the TDM have already been here for a week, but you’re just a newcomer. So where are you when this all went down? Are you trying to get back on a bus that’ll take you home, or…?

B. Home Sweet Home

[ The dust has settled on the bus ride here, and you can’t help but notice that your farmland… well, it’s a mess. Rocks and grass everywhere, no matter which layout you were set with. You were given a set of tools, and the message that this land is yours to shape or change or build on no matter what you want, so long as it’s yours. The little crate by the edge of the house is what will hold your bounties from farming, collected nightly with money delivered to your mailbox the following day, like some kind of Produce Fairy visited.

The house is in alright shape. It’s not brilliant, but it has a kitchen, a bathroom, and a studio bedroom where all your belongings can be. It’s wide enough to accommodate several things until you upgrade it.

Sometimes you see a stray dog or cat at the edge of your property. Do you adopt it?

Anyway, it’s time to make what you will of your farm. ]


The Last Day Of
The Stardrop Celebration!
FESTIVAL PLAYLIST

[ Down a hill a little ways from Pelican Town is a remarkable festival set-up! Several attractions and vendors line the streets where everything is going down. Where will you go? ]

C. Food Stalls

[ Surrounding the entire property are dozens of food stalls, from all around the universe. Marjorie bussed in caterers from all around with a healthy sum of gold, and they’re happy to sell their wares in this strange place tonight. Where you might find octopus balls, you’ll also find kraken balls. Where you might find corndogs, you’ll find dogs selling corn.

It’s a veritable buffet! And the gold you’ve started with is more than enough to go shopping for food. Have fun! ]

D. Games

[ All manners of Carnival Games are set up! From throwing a baseball at bottles to catching goldfish with a paper net, everything you can dream of is here. There are even some unorthodox games, like dance-offs, karaoke, and a little bit of everything. Apparently, the NPC couldn’t choose who to go with what. It definitely makes for a big festival.

In addition to the above, there’s water gun races, squeaky duck ponds, skee-ball, target shooting, test your strength with a hammer, pitching speed, shooting hoops… and more! ]

E. Three-legged Race

[ You didn’t think this festival was going to go by without tomfoolery, did you? For the prize of 1,000 Gold, you can rally up a partner and get tied to them by the ankle, participating in a no-rules no-bars-held race. The winners will be randomized! But the real gift is going to be the fact that the ties around your ankles? Aren’t coming undone. You’re going to have to be tied together until 11 PM! ]

F. Fireworks

[ Errant magic and mishaps aside, you have to admit, the fireworks show at the end of it all is really something. Marjorie hired a pony for them, and the lights are as ethereal as they are non-traditional. It’s a good moment to snuggle up to someone or enjoy company with a new friend. ]

G. Wildcard

[ Exactly what it says! Make your own prompt. ]

You should save that for yourself if you do! Buy yourself something nice. I'm a big fan of treating yourself!

[i_am_here]

Hah, will do. I'll do that.

[song_princess]

She blinks and goes to slowly nod her head, blushing a little. Leanne knows that she shouldn't want it but... It was so cute. She heard the sigh and goes to start fidgeting with a lock of hair as it seems like she was inconveniencing him a little.

But then, Saga won the game so easily that it took her so long to win. A blush forms on her cheeks and she couldn't help but to smile as brightly as possible up at him.

"Are you sure?" She had to make sure it was okay. "Thank you Saga! I love it!!"

[ringrust]

[Jeez, it's almost like talking to himself... That is, if he didn't get along so damn well with himself. Look. He knows how he comes across to other people, is the point.]

What, you mean at them?

[It's not a gagtag anymore motherfucker.]

I don't care about impressing them, I just didn't want them to follow me around whining about it. Should've just broken the thing in two...

[littlehero]

Oh, I'm sorry. I'm Seere!

[Sorry bro he was a little distracted by the whole stalking thing. He is a little embarrassed about it though.]

Thank you so much. I really do appreciate it.

[hyakuman]

B
[ All things considered, he could have taken the whole thing worse, but Mirio tries to be a good sport about it. He was by no means a farm boy growing up, having lived in a small apartment before moving into the U.A. dorms, so to have this whole space to himself? Well it's a little more than overwhelming. Mirio immediately uses his time to check on the house's roof, after all one of the worse things that could happen right now was dealing with a leaky and creaky roof!

The teen had just been on the roof when his recently adopted dog runs up to a person passing by. The dog starts barking at the visitor, weak mouth biting on pants and whatever it can reach. ]

Freddie no, don't bother people!

[ As he tries to get off the roof, his foot accidentally hits the ladder and it falls over leaving Mirio on the roof. Oops. ]

C
[ The money he had been saving back at home had been exchange to Starhue's proper currency. Which isn't really bad, at least he has some pocket money to last him a couple of days. At the very least he could treat himself to some food before he has to figure out how to preserve himself while he stays.

His brows turn way up high when he notices the stall that sells the giant size takoyaki. ]

Holy crap, I didn't think they'd have this here- I didn't think I'd get a chance to eat that.

[ He turns to the person next to him. ]

Hey, you wanna split the food? It's as big as a bomb.

Wildcard
[ Anything goes, feel free to PM me we can work out anything you'd like! ]

!!!

[righteyed]

[Of course he does the thing with the sake, because who wouldn't when it's just dropped out of nowhere like that? Sure it's explained when Sasuke shows up right afterwards, but come on man he had a candy apple and some goldfish to think of too this is unfair.

Once he realises exactly what he's been gifted with, however, he smiles warmly against the half-eaten apple and tucks the bottle into his yukata, where it'll be safe and sound until he gets back to the farm.]

You really think so? The red fireworks are impressive, I agree...But they burn too brightly and fade too fast. The blue ones stand out more against the night sky, and they seem to linger in your view, I think; lasting power to burn into your memories.

...I don't have a set of cups with me at the moment, I'm afraid. But I will save this, and keep it for a night when I do; it wouldn't do to drink it alone and out of the bottle like a drunkard, hm?

I WAS JUST ABOUT TO LINK THIS TOP LEVEL TO YOU hghdsjkh

[righteyed]

[Ah--

Shit, someone heard him talking to himself, that's just the best thing ever? But it was benign at least, and...The someone (can't be older than Masamune, surely) seems rather amused by it all at least, so he just...

Raises his apple in a returned toast. It's all he has. Don't mind that he's turning as red as the toffee because real samurai don't talk to themselves, he's friendly, promise!]

I take it you're a fan as well? Of sake that is, not of candy apples.

[righteyed]

[EVERY BATTLE MUST BE TREATED AS EQUAL AND EVERY OPPONENT, NO MATTER HOW FORGETFUL, MUST BE RESPECTED!!!!! Or something, I don't know. The point is that you don't get this many fish through messing about, okay. And Kojuro really wants his pond now that he thought of the idea!]

Aka Demekin. [Said almost instantly in response as he points to a reddish-gold, bug-eyed fish.] It...Hm. Never mind. [There's no polite way to phrase his thought there, even if it was meant to be complimentary. Best to skip it, right? He simply clears his throat instead, before moving closer and pointing at the chosen target, following it as it swims.]

Try to understand how it moves first. Is it faster than other fish? More nervous? Or is it docile and easy to catch? [IT'S A GOLDFISH KOJURO CHILL] I have no doubt that you will catch it, Yukizome.

[righteyed]

[Kojuro notices that pause, even if it's only slight, and makes a mental note to not push further; he knows full well that he'd be unsure about how honestly to answer when asked similar questions, so he's not going to judge.

And really, those are all fairly traditional arts anyway. Apart from the magic, but...He's also seen some pretty impressive stuff done that would count, right? So he's still...Not judging. (Especially incense arts. What some folks do with incense...Whew.)]

I see; those are all very highly-sought after fields of education, so you chose well. Astrology and herbology will see you employed in any town, and although I am...Not well-versed in magic, definitely, I have seen many fantastic things and can only imagine what you are capable with this talent.

So you will be growing herbs here, I take it? If any are edible, I might buy some off of you...And if not, I might still be interested in what you can make with them. You can never be too prepared.

[coldandyearning]

[Her breath hitches for a moment as she takes in everything- the ever-present strong yet familiar musk, the way his chest rose and fell in time with hers, the warmth emanating from his gentle touch.]

I wish...

[Tears start to prick at the corner of her eyes.]

...always...

['to be with you.'

Her eyelids grow heavier as the steady rhythm of his heart lulls her to sleep, until they eventually shut.]

[autolatrist]

. . .

Weiss?

[It's barely whispered, just to test whether she's awake. It's fine if she wants to sleep on him, but his leg's going to fall asleep laying like this!!

...But he'll endure it. How can he disturb her now when she's so peaceful and so warm? Even he can hardly resist the pull of slumber; no matter how hard he struggles to keep awake just to watch her, it's only a few minutes before he's snoring and drooling all over the place.

When he finally gets to wake up next to her, he'll cry.







(HIS LEG!!!!!!)]

[readypunch]

Did I- I wasn't going to do that.

[she shifts a little closer- gonna try and lean on! she kinda wants to stay, it doesn't seem like there's much fighting. Which is a little weird, but- a change! Maybe it'll be nice.] Really? It seems odd that they'd lay a place out for us… But very welcoming! Don't you think?

[she hums, a little.] We could probably just ask them! I'm sure someone'd want to pull one apart. And put it back together, too!

[righteyed]

Quite alright, Seere; my days are rather empty here, even with all of my own farmwork. You're doing me a favour by giving me work that would benefit more than just myself.

[He bows deeply, because of course he does, before offering Seere a hand. It's mostly without thinking, though once it's out there he doesn't exactly draw it back. Best way to keep from getting lost, right?] I know that you have no reason to worry about threats, but would it be alright if you allowed me to accompany you for a short while?

Or would my presence merely be embarrassing? I hear that's sometimes an occurrence when one is forced to be around someone like me. [Y'know, older than even time-abominations.]

[hornedskull]

[ She couldn't be sure, but when she's leaned on... Fordola grips to Yda, holding her in a hug. ] It's weird - can't trust it, but... it'd be nice to have a home, right? One we're not fighting over. [ In other words - yes. It's welcoming.

But there's a slight pause. ] Just... ask them?

[readypunch]

[this is fine, right? She wraps her arm around Fordola in return.] It would. I mean- it's been a while. Since I've- since we've had anything like this.

Sure! Some people are like that- give them a project and they'll jump at it!

[hornedskull]

And, hey. I'm sure your old allies are just waitin' to come take you away. [ Fordola says, grinning. Though in her own way, she wants Yda to herself. ] We can just settle down!

...That sounds fake, though. There has to be something in it for people. Right?

[readypunch]

I don't know- maybe they'd like this place too! [she's grinning, a little- but then again, it'd be kind of nice to see them again. This is still nice, though.] Exactly!

Well, that's just some people, of course. Otherwise- money? There's- we have some, I think. […which is probably supposed to go to buying seeds and all that, but- this is an okay use too, right? right.]

[hornedskull]

But they barely know you're still alive. [ Sure, they might have met once or twice, but would it have sunk in? Plus... she sighed, letting go of Yda. ] I think this is one of those things. The things where people might not know us. [ Damnit-- she'd been told a name for them! Huff huff. ]

...We still don't need to eat, do we? [ it's a very interesting question. besides, she likes eating. ] If we do, we'll need money for that.

[readypunch]

Right. [she doesn't sound too happy about that, but- well, that's what happened, isn't it? She straightens up, frowning.] Oh- I know this one. It's a different- um. Oh, there's some theory about it… It's to do with things being different, but- [argh. maybe it'll come to them.]

I don't know- but I mean, I don't feel any different. But farms mean food, right? We could try some. And for now we could get something.

[hornedskull]

The point is, this might be one of those places. [ It'll come, totally! But Fordola huffs. ] They might not know I've joined you guys. Or they might believe Lyses' lies. [ how is the world meant to go, fordola don't know. But she's wary. ]

Right, there's food here, right? Food that looks weird. And's being sold by beasts. [ She's nodding - they gotta try. And then steal a bus. ]

[readypunch]

Exactly. A different- plane? No, that wasn't it. [Dammit. She puffs out a breath.] I don't know how they'd have heard… I'd tell them when we met, though! Promise.

It's definitely different! That just means it's worth trying, right? To find out what it tastes like!

[someone should probably save them from themselves there, but it's fine.]

[hornedskull]

[ Fordola gives Yda a little playful headbutt - she doesn't have her horns right now, alas. ] Let's get some food, then! Then we can figure out how to let people know you're not just some girl dressing up as a hero, huh?

[readypunch]

[well this means she can headbutt back! so that all works out, right?] It doesn't look like they're too far off! [people probably get pretty excited after the games, huh.] That's… you know, that's weird to think about. [that they're thinking she's just someone? that they're thinking she's a hero? …little of both, probably.]

[hornedskull]

Those Warriors of Light probably never knew you. Ours is lucky, huh?

[ And so, Fordola dashes off... until she passes one of the booths, and can't help but stop by one. ] What in the hells...?!

[ Because there's a weird... gecko-thing? With lots of weird fruits and beans for sale. ]
