STARDROP CELEBRATION: FINAL DAY
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 Stardrop Celebration!
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. ]
[ OOC; Hello, everyone! This community is L I V E, from now on, you can make both network and action posts on this community, as well as use the notice board pinned to the top of the community! You're also welcome to make IC inboxes for one on one conversation and messaging! We hope you enjoy the community and if you need anything, please leave a note on the contact page! Thank you!
People who want to keep their CR from the test drive; you may! Your characters just arrived a little earlier than others! ]
no subject
[She hugged Lilie again, giving her a rub on the head.] Don't worry, you've grown strong too, capturing all those Ultra Beasts that came through the Ultra Holes? I couldn't be prouder of my little Ultra Guardian.
no subject
Lillie turns her head. Lusamine's words are sinking in, but they're too confusing for Lillie to process.]
Ultra... huh? N-No, I... [She feels guilt sinking in her gut. What is Lusamine talking about? Lillie has done nothing but run away...
Suddenly, Nebby the Needy Cosmog is calling for attention:] PEW?!
no subject
[Looking over to Nebby, she gasped.] Nebby! Oh dear, Lilie, did you come from a time before Cosmog evolved to Solgaleo?
[Was that why Lilie seemed confused? She reached into her bag and pulled out a cookie for Nebby.] Sorry I don't have any star candy, Nebby.
no subject
[She is so. confused.
At least Nebby isn't! Nebby also doesn't care. They look up at Lusamine, the cookie, and then make peace with her. That was easy enough.]
I guess so... I just, um... [Lillie is working herself up again. Sorry, Lusamine. Your daughter has been beaten down by, well... another you. She's scared to confess the truth to Lusamine.] It's been three months since... Since I stole Nebby... f-from you, I...
[Oops. She's trembling like a leaf now. Her mother is back to normal, but Lillie is suddenly terrified that it's all an act. One that might be broken if Lusamine learns that Lillie purposefully stole from her... but at the same time, her 'real' mother never raised a hand against her.]
no subject
[Cue the puzzled expression, Lusamine frowning in thought for a long moment before shaking her head.] That doesn't line up with what I remember, Lilie. Nebby was entrusted to you and your friends, and you raised him. Could it be that we're from two different timelines?
no subject
[It's a sad thing to consider. Could that be true? Then 'her' mother is still back home, twisted beyond recognition...
Lillie wipes her eyes. She doesn't want that to be the case.]
M, Maybe... Back home, you found Nebby first. You were going to use Nebby to open Ultra Wormholes and find father, b-but you... You lost yourself, too. In a different way...
[Back to hugging mom!] I missed the real you, mother!
no subject
In my world, Nebby was entrusted to a classmate of yours, Ash from Pallet Town. He's a reliable young man, and you and your friends raised Nebby after we ran some scans. I admittedly ran into some trouble since Faba tried to use Nebby to open a Ultra Hole and, well, I got kidnapped and all my bad traits came out.
I'm so sorry if my other self is putting you through trouble, Lillie!
no subject
[Lillie shakes her head, nuzzling into mom.]
No, it's... I-It's okay. It'll be okay! I know that isn't the real you. We're a family. [She whimpers,] We're a bit broken right now, b-but... But somehow...!
[It still feels hopeless. Lillie hates to say it, but she's still terrified of her mother back home. Part of her even fears good mom right now, which fills Lillie with conflicting feelings of guilt.]
I'll save you back home, I promise!
no subject
[Hugging her back, she smiled and added,] Take your time and formulate your strategy. I'm sure there's going to be a way to save me back home too. I have faith in you, my little girl.
