LET'S PARTY!

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. ]

[ 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! ]

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

[With a snicker, Bridge then crossed the distance, kneeling down and scooping Scrooge up into a warm, firm embrace.]

[He returned it well, dropping the shovel so he can properly throw his arms around him.]

[He held the hug for a good long moment, tightening it just a bit before placing him back down, though stayed knelt on the ground to keep level with him.]

Man, am I happy to see you.

[He settled back, keeping his hands on Bridge's arms.]

I'm happy to see you, too.

[It's been over a month, and these brackets aren't too ashamed to admit a lot of that has been worrying about Bridge, considering his fears about going with his estranged mom. But that's neither here nor there, for happy reunion times.]

Though you still haven't answered my question. [He snickered some, waving a finger.] Abandoning your farm? When it was free?

[Glancing at his farm, he snickered a little.]

Well, I didn't see much point in keeping it. I was just gonna move in with Louie.

[Speaking of.]

Oh! Have you seen him yet?

Louie?

[By that surprise, he hadn't.]

He's here too?

[He nodded.]

Yeah. His farm's actually not too far from here.

Ahh, well that might explain the green feather that got washed downstream t'mine.

[He snickered some.]

I'd assumed it came from a wild duck. Apparently I was wrong. I'll have to stop in and see him in a while.

Yeah, I bet he'd like that.

[Especially given who else they've talked to.]

And here I was thinkin' I'd be spending some time here without any familiar faces around. Though...

[He hesitated, then waved the words away and looked up.]

So, livin' with Louie, eh?

[In a rising, teasing tone.]

[He chuckled a little.]

Yeah. Though the problem is his farm's surrounded by a lot of water.

Of course it is. That's as typical as my farm having good mineable ground.

[He snickered some.]

Not confident around the water yet?

Well, I mean...I'm more confident around water.

[That's what he spent the last month doing.]

But...y'know...I don't wanna push it.

I wouldn't think so. But with that farm so covered in water, and you not livin' on your own, what else could you do?

[Okay, he may have been poking at him before, but now he's definitely teasing.]

[He snickered.]

Guess I'm just gonna have to suffer through it.

Unless you know of any one else with some extra room.

Ah dinnae ken, laddie.

[He snickered a bit.]

I might know someone, I might not.

[With another chuckle, he nodded.]

Well, if they're feeling a bit lonely, have them call me up.

Aye, I'll have them do just that.

[With a grin that says, yeah he knows just what's going to happen.]

[Returning the grin, he then glanced at his own empty farm, before looking back at Scrooge.]

So a mining farm, huh?

Can I see it?

[A light laugh as he picked the shovel back up, bracing it on his shoulder again.]

'Course you can! Just follow me. I'd like tae get cleaned up before headin' into town, anyway.

[He nodded.]

Ready when you are.
