Who: EVERYONE
What: CHERRY BLOSSOM FESTIVAL
Where: Outside on the mansion grounds where there are cherry blossoms that have magically not finished blooming yet this late into April
When: RIGHT NOW???
Warnings: Rated S for SHOJO

Stadiums and tournaments and rankings were all well and good, but they were lacking things that Flurrie felt were far too important to go ignored. Style! Beauty! Grace! Culture! This place needed more of it. Fortunately, with spring in full force, she had a fantastic idea to bring everyone together to celebrate just those things!

And so, a message appears on the bulletin board:

Underneath it was more information, including dates and a request to contact her if the reader were interested in hosting a booth at the festival.

When the day arrived for the festivities, the mansion's inhabitants will find a lovely grove of cherry blossoms decorated with streamers, flower arrangements, and numerous booths waiting for them. Where did Flurrie get all this? It is a mystery.

((OOC: Open mingle log! The booths can be absolutely anything you want- food, games, stuff for sale, magic tricks, etc, and your character is free to host one if they would be so inclined. It's not as big as past festivals obviously, but Flurrie tried.))

Threaded | Flat

Flurrie all but ransacked the theater's dressing rooms and came up with an impressive display of costumes, many of which are hanging on display for all to see. There's a makeshift dressing room in the back for trying on anything that catches your eye, from period costumes of all eras to, of course, several outfits of a certain style to keep with the theme of the festival. (Not everything is quite as fancy, though...)

"Hello! Hello!" Flurrie greets anyone who draws near. "Do you feel a bit under dressed today? No need to fret, dahling, I'm sure I have just the thing for you! Why don't you step inside and have a look?"

Rene, being from Gallia, had only seen trees like that in books. "It's like a scene from a fairy tale!" she wowed, staring at everything around her. "Magari would love it here!"

Jet had found himself a plastic cup of sake. How he managed to get alcohol at his age was anyone's guess, but he got it.

He was wandering around with the intention of finding Wave--to surprise her--but grew antsy, so he stood beside a booth at the far end of the festival and started sipping.

"BLEH, PEHHH!!" He sputtered. "Ugh, this stuff is strong!"

...And he shrugged it off and resumed sipping.

Sakura Grove, Act 1 (Open)

Sonic has a love of landscapes like this. The paths are a raceway, and the limbs of the trees his own personal cotton-candy playground. To say he was everywhere at once would be hyperbole, but descriptive. He's over at the snack tables, bouncing from tree to tree and sliding down the branches, hanging out at the arena for some target training (Wait he can't fly how the hell did he even GET over there?!) Messing around with the game tables, napping in the grove, back at the snack tables again...

He's more than willing to talk, assuming you can catch him.

Sakura Grove, Act 2 (Private to Blaze)

Also yeah, Blaze, he's looking for you. You need to SEE this!

Late at night, a glorious display of fireworks started. A fitting end to a festive night.

Rouge sat on a stump a bit of a distance from the line of booths. It was a good spot with a good view. She hadn't seen anything so bright since the moon destroyed everything, and it was a welcome distraction from... well, things.
