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 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!

[ Luckily one of them wasn't taking it seriously. But Fordola saw a prize she wanted - one she couldn't get with her strength. Damnit, she'd earn that very comfortable looking purple creature plush. ]

Didn't expect them to use guns. Not even gunblades - the proper thing. [ Her eyes do focus on Talcott, however - before trying to look back at her prize. Scarily... ] The strength-based ones aren't rigged.

[ fordola you are abusing the power of a god ]

I figured those ones definitely would be.

[Maybe he should have brought Bean. She would have been able to win them no problem.]

What's a gunblade? [Noct takes another shot, managing to hit another target and it prompts a small, squeaky cheer from Talcott.]

Maybe you're weak. [ A simple response, as she gives a small smile to the Chespin. Before she begins to explain, tracing a finger across the weapon. ] They're swords that use gunpowder to make their strikes stronger. They're standard for us in the Empire.

[ Aaand she aims again, shooting - and missing again. ]

[Noct can't help but frown slightly, side-eyeing her.]

I'm not weak. [He takes another shot and hits the target, looking a bit smug.] Some of those games are just kind of impossible if you ask me.

[He glances at her again, pausing in his shooting.]

So they fire a blast like a gun but you can still wield them like a sword? That sounds dangerous.

I'm just saying, I got the max scores on all of them. [ Fordola said, with a sneer. But she lowered her own, putting it down. ]

That's just how it goes. Have to risk yourself if you want to be worth anything - with all aspects of life.

Yeah well, looks like you won't adding this one to it. [Because he's going to be getting the high score during this match, lady.

Noct lowers his gun now, reaching up with a now free hand to pet Talcott.]


I guess. Doesn't seem like you'd get to really enjoy the outcome of it all if you succeed in what you're doing. Being that risky I mean.

[ She snorted, but at least she isn't gonna argue that. Instead, she's gonna argue the second point. (Fordola, please.) ]

There's not a point in enjoying things, if you don't risk yourself getting them. Least, that's what it seems like around Lord Zenos.

Lord who? [An eyebrow goes up.] Sounds to me like that guy has no idea what the meaning of fun and enjoyment in general is if they want you to risk your life to get them. Sometimes the point is that they're pointless.

[personal profile] hornedskull 2018-06-24 01:50 pm (UTC)(link)
Uh-- Lord Zenos? Current viceroy of Ala Mhigo? Son of the Emperor? [ how the fuck don't you know??? ]
