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. ]

Comments

[astralera]

[ This isn't the first time Era had awoken to find herself in a place that was not her home, though it is the first time said place was not Eorzea at all. It is strange and discomfiting, with so many things she does not recognize and cannot place. She keeps her codex attached firmly to her hip, unwilling to draw unwanted attention to herself by wearing a more obvious weapon and even more unwilling to walk around unarmed.

The commotion just beyond the crowd catches her attention, leaving Era to wind her way carefully through the clusters of people to see what has happened, fingers curled around the spine of her codex. Her nerves are on high alert, still recovering from her unfortunate stay with a branch of Garlean scientists. While Era's aether reserves have recovered to a healthy enough level to use magic once more her body is taking longer to regain its health; still just this side of too thin and scales only halfway grown back in, though the clothing she wears does a fair job of hiding it.

Era recognizes the armour from a distance and she feels her heart thrum painfully in her throat, head buzzing with an unexpected panic she shoves aside. He's dead, she thinks. Though Era knows full well that it's possible for a Zenos from another world and time to be here, whole and hale. He is as imposing as she remembers and yet despite this she is not truly intimidated by him. Zenos yae Galvus brings many emotions to the forefront of Era's mind, but it has been a long time since fear was one of them.

It is more than likely that the Garlean prince does not know her as the Warrior of Light. This is something she has grown accustomed to over the past eight months with Rose, and it would surprise Era more than seeing him alive again if he knew her.

But that does not make him any less of a threat.

Era approaches him with the certain steps of a warrior though keeps a respectful distance between them. He is over three fulms her height, and so the distance is not only respectful and safe, it is also more practical - she has no intention on straining her neck to look up at him. ]

I don't imagine its previous owner will object.
