you and me in the moonlight

Who: You!
What: A year end party MINGLELOG to help everyone recover from the Shit we’ve been through.
When: Forwarddated to Nov 24
Where: Enso E4, close to the ST Temple
Warnings: Mark as necessary, but none expected.

As the end of November draws near…… it’s time for that player plot the mods hinted at in their latest announcement.

Laurent’s Witch Labyrinth! -no, actually, it’s just a party.

[preparation]

All day on the 24th people are hard at work setting up on the golden beaches of Enso. The Storyteller’s Temple can be seen from the site and vice versa; it’s just a short walk away. There’s quite a bit to be done, so every extra pair of hands are welcome!

[the party]

As evening falls, a series of torches light up the party site for the lost; most prominent are the three large campfires spaced out across the beach, offering a variety of gathering spots for those who don’t like the loud partying going on at the other one.

There’s more than enough food to go around. An entire Cariborn is being dug up from the sandy soil way up the beach, having been roasted in the ground. There’s a wide variety spread out on tables… of handwaved origin… maybe they’re the ones left around from 4/20?? It’s probably fine. Herb- baked vegetables, fresh fruits, meat of various types, pizza!! and yes, Muffet’s Magic Blackberry Alcohol abound.

We’ve also got party favors. Amongst them, it seems like..... owo are these sparklers?

Come hang out! It’s a well-deserved break.

[activities]

The children (and adults so-inclined) have some cute party games to have fun with. There’s a simple little ringtoss area set up, with rings that aren’t even proper circles (listen, Laurent tried) and wooden stakes in the ground to be ringed.

Across the wide stretch of sand there's a lot that can be done- want to build some sandcastles? Pick some shells? Fight some crabs? The beach is dotted with doodles in the sand, inviting you to join in.

The biggest attraction is perhaps the petting zoo- well, it’s a cluster of animals just hanging out, but you get the idea. Located far up on the beach and away from the danger of the waves, the petting zoo has three whole Chocobos, two whole Tigerlilies (one of which is clearly guarding the Chocobos), and one whole horse. Sometimes two horses, but the grey wandering one is wearing a plaque that says “I BITE. PET ME CAREFULLY.”

[storyteller?]

Yes, ST-chan is invited! I’m leaving it to them to top-level or tag out at their leisure. Keep an eye out for the bunny god, they’re Coming.

[Of course he is proud. They have long since proven the strength of their heart and determination, the power to keep going through flame and Gods. Although there were still things that Grimm disagreed with, he was proud of what they have created, the nameless wanderer and Vessel that was "Knight".]

Wonderful, wonderful! Then we shall not disappoint our audience observing this beautiful stage.

[They come at him with nail and speed and suddenly it feels like when they first faced each other upon the Troupe's stage. The blow lands, slashing across Grimm's arm but they both know that it will take more then that to fell him. The refinement of their movements does not go unnoticed. There may be more work that needed to be done but they are putting in effort to do so and it is pleasing to see.

Grimm teleports away from the Knight with a loud crack and re-appears a little ways a way. Standing tall, he opens his cloak with a flourish and three firebats come out screaming and charge the Knight's position. Here they come!]

[Muffet is certainly an appreciative audience, following the movements of the fight with close attention. As a dancer, she appreciates the smoothness of their motions. As a monster, she admires the strength of the magic involved.]

[...even if she's now beginning to wonder if everyone but her knows how to do fire magic.]
