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.

We could have pizza all the time. Infinity pizza. [Wait though.] Actually wait, do you think someone could make one from the redstone? Magic infinity pizza oven.

[In order to be at this party and not be full of anxiety, Connor is maybe a little high. This might explain why he got emotional about pizza, but he probably would have anyway.]

[At this point, he's just accepted that the magic metal is called "redstone." Mostly because he can't remember what the actual name for it is.]

We'd have to figure out how to...do anything with it first, but probably?

[The pizza was a huge hit. They are entitled to get a little emotional about it. Whoever's idea it was, good on them.]

Can't even remember the last time I actually had pizza.

Somebody must be able to. There's like fifty kinds of magic here. Everybody here knows magic except for the five of us who are very normal and regrettably squishy.

[Some people is normal-ass boys from normal-ass Pennsylvania who have absolutely nothing wrong with them except for the fact that sometimes their subconscious manifests itself as a hallucination. It's fine.]

So just, like, statistically? Somebody has to have compatible magic. Probably.

[He's gay and also super dumb and can't do math, okay?]

[Tim is...not sure where he falls on that spectrum, and he's decided he doesn't want to know. "Normal" has never once been a category he's thought to sort himself into. Externally, maybe he just does a real good job at selling it.]

The elves could probably work something out, right? They're...good at that kind of thing. Or Ed, maybe. [Can one transmute an oven into being?]
