July Mini Event - Seaside Sway

Pumpkin Hollow Community Bulletin
It’s the end of July. Summer is peaking, hitting its stride. In the forest, frogs sing and fireflies dance through the night, and dragonflies go about their business in the sun. In town, farmers roll up their sleeves and young ladies swap out their many layers for breezy floral gowns. And on the beach, swimmers take to the sea for water at its warmest and young crabs climb up from the sun-drenched sand. Kora’s glory at its finest!

For about a week now, a flier has been up on the community bulletin board. :
Midsummer Beach Festival!
Join us on July 21st and 22nd for our annual beach bash!

Organized by the Temple of Sacred Roots in tandem with Town Hall, all townsfolk are invited to join in for seaside festivities in honor of the height of summer. Activities will include:
  • Live music (Sign-ups for performers will be available at Empty Pockets Music Bar)
  • Locally made strawberry wine from last summer’s strawberries
  • Beach pit barbecues for lunch on both days
  • A hot food banquet for dinner on the 21st
  • A fish fry breakfast on the 22nd
  • Paper lantern float
  • Beach games
  • Tents and bed rolls for beach camping
We look forward to seeing you there!



And, as promised, the festival opens up on the afternoon of July 21st, where the smell of barbecue rises up from Tawny Beach. Tables sit on wooden plinths to avoid sinking in the sand, bearing fresh summer fruit and drinks. Pork, fish, and lamb roast in a sand pit. Enchanted barrels covered in magic frost keep frozen treats like orange juice shaved ice and strawberry sorbet cold. A station for assembling little wood-and-paper floating lanterns can be seen off in the distance and Cormac and the Banshees are setting up for their opening set. Tents and bed rolls have been set up toward the Marina. Literally everything is decorated with thin golden coins on strands of twine, sea shells, and sea glass. In the center of it all, stones have been laid into the shape of a massive compass rose, whose center houses the makings of a bonfire.

Those who were here last year will recognize that this festival is much larger than last year’s, and was not preceded with desperate pleas from Town Hall for help providing food and decor. It speaks plainly to the health of the town now. Even with all that has been going on, the growing population and renewed sense of community and purpose have improved matters around the island considerably.

Near the tent area, a family of crabs (one red, one blue, and three purple) can be observed. The small purple ones are poking each other with sticks. The Limoncello has made port, and Royal and his crew are splitting helper duty with the staff of Town Hall, and are dancing and partying the rest of the time. All is as it should be. For once, there is no dangerous surprise lurking in the shadows.

So, what’s on your agenda? During the day, volleyball, swimming, and a game that involves throwing small fabric sacks of dry lentils into wooden hoops in the sand can be enjoyed, alongside a plethora of frozen treats. At night, food and wine and lemonade are served at the banquet tables and lively music plays on the temporary wooden stage for dancing by firelight. There is also the lantern float, which encourages participants to send a glowing lantern out on the water in honor of the lost and the distant, ending the first night in a moment of peaceful sobriety. You may also notice a charming stranger milling around, cozying up to Royal, and drinking after nightfall--- a woman with dark olive skin, raven hair that soaks up the firelight, and rum brown eyes who wears a billowing blue dress and (whenever she hasn’t placed it onto someone else’s head for fun) a wide-brimmed black hat.

Then, at night, camp on the beach under the stars or head home by additional lantern light. The festivities will continue until the following afternoon! Feel free to share your beach fit in the fashion show thread below, as well. Enjoy!

On the evening of the 24th this month, there will be a feast held in the Festival Green, and all are welcome to attend! I invite everyone to submit a recipe from their home, and I will do my best to recreate them here. If it will require off-world ingredients, please get it in sooner so I can make arrangements with everyone's favorite skeleton pirate merchant. (Donations of citrus fruit for payment to our dear captain are appreciated but not necessary.)

Along with plenty of food and drink, the musical stylings of Cormac and the Banshees will be featured, and there will be bonfire jumping after nightfall.

You are also welcome to bring your own dish if you so wish!

Looking forward to spending an evening feasting with you all!
~ Claude von Riegan

Kora, the Goddess of Summer and Sea

[personal profile] psalmofseasons 2024-07-21 08:33 pm (UTC)(link)
It's Kora's peak season, which means she gets one opportunity to slip through the barrier using the height of her power and her connection to her favored. She chooses after nightfall at the beach festival.

She keeps herself fairly inconspicuous but can be seen latched onto Royal's arm, drinking and people-watching, and occasionally sticking her hat onto a skeleton or a drunk person to see how long it takes them to notice they have a hat now. It always makes its way back to her eventually.

Aside from the fact that her dark hair seems to soak up and shimmer with the bonfire light, there is nothing unusual or divine about her. If you don't recognize her from the temple, she may even escape your notice.

Oh, it's easy for Angel to recognize her. He waits for a quiet moment and waves as he makes his way over, a silent check-in to be sure he's welcome to talk to her.

Is he doing a good job, Momma?

Captain Royal Dominguez || Inscryption/NPC

[personal profile] zestofthesea 2024-07-21 08:39 pm (UTC)(link)
During the day, Royal can be seen instructing his crew on how to assist with things like furniture set-up, decorating, and food distribution. But he still has time for a chat or to help you with whatever you need.

At night, he and his crew are off duty, and Royal himself appears to have acquired a date! His skeleton band plays jaunty music and they dance and drink and eat orange shaved ice all night long. The juice is loose!

Radar O'Reilly | M*A*S*H | evening of the 21st, OTA

[personal profile] incomingchoppers 2024-07-21 09:47 pm (UTC)(link)
bonfire

Nobody in Korea or Tokyo cared if you were under twenty-one and out drinking. Even if they had, Hawkeye's still was right there if Radar ever wanted to sneak a sip. And here? If he's in the rare mood for a beer, but runs into somebody who starts being a jerk about it, all Radar has to do is put on an outraged of course I can drink! I'm nineteen! and they'll apologize and give him what he wants.

Anyway. Point is. Radar is sloshed.

It didn't take much -- he doesn't have the iron liver of most of the 4077th, and he'll always be a bigger fan of grape Nehi than booze -- so within an hour of the wine coming out, he's already a giggly, gently swaying mess next to the bonfire. The kid's in a fantastic mood. How could he not be? There's a big party, he's on a beach, the food's amazing, the drinks are even better... everything is so great. In another hour he'll probably be flat on his back singing loudly and incredibly out of tune.

If he knows you, he'll holler your name and give you an enthusiastic, drunken wave hello over his head. If he's never met you before in his life... he'll do the exact same thing! (Look, even when he's sober, he sometimes forgets who he's actually met properly and who he's just overheard in passing.) And if you're friends, he'll probably grab your arm after a couple tries and ask earnestly, "Hey. Hey, y'wanna go swimming?"

Just be glad there's no tattoo ink on hand for him to try and guzzle.


lanterns

But the longer the party goes, the louder it gets. Radar's ears kinda hurt. On top of that, he's drunk enough that all the mental sorting and filing that's usually second nature -- what he's supposed to hear, what he isn't, what's already been said and what's gonna be said a couple seconds from now -- is getting way harder to keep up with. He's gotta take a break somewhere quieter.

Grabbing his fourth plate of food and another cup of wine, he stumbles over toward the lantern float. A couple nearby logs pull double-duty as chairs, and he drops down near one with a huge sigh of relief (some of his food and drink spill, unnoticed), draping himself over it as he muzzily watches the lanterns drift out to sea.

"It's so pretty," he says before long, wistful and a little bit too loud. "Look at all of 'em."

Gerry Keay

[personal profile] skeletonkeay 2024-07-21 10:36 pm (UTC)(link)
During the day, Gerry and his overdressed ass can be found one of two places: sitting under an umbrella with a cup of strawberry sorbet and a cigarette looking miserable, or standing in the shallows of the ocean with his pants rolled up to his knees, also looking miserable. He picked light fabrics, truly he did, but it's still too goddamn hot. Being goth in the summer truly is a labor of love.

At night, however, he thrives, enjoying the bonfire and the wine and the music. He might even dance, if you ask him to.

At the end of the night, he sets one lonely boat loose onto the water... and watches it drift away over another cigarette. Then it's off to sleep under the stars.

[personal profile] thismaskismybadge 2024-07-22 04:44 pm (UTC)(link)

Gwen plops down in the sand to Gerry's right, all decked out in her frilled pink bathing suit and the long side of her hair pulled up into a top-knot. Her freckles are out in force and she might have some sunburn based regrets of her own later, but right now she just looks at Gerry in all his goth glory and simply says:

"Dude."

John Rambo || FIRST BLOOD / Rambo Franchise || OTA

[personal profile] theydrewfirstblood 2024-07-21 10:49 pm (UTC)(link)
Afternoon, 21st/22nd

John’s seen the notice about the beach party—and he kind of owes the boys after what happened, so he sets up a surprise.

He doesn’t tell them outright—just lets Edgar and Radar both know to come find him. He packs a bag with a few things, heads to the beach early, and stakes out both a couple tents and brings what he needs to set up a small campfire on the sand.

Yeah, John brought some of his own meat and creature comforts: Baker Ranch is going camping.

If John knows you, he’s likely alluded to the fact that he’ll be at the beach for a while—feel free to come see him as he’s getting comfortable. Or around during the BBQs and games.

Or when he’s breaking down camp the following afternoon.

Swimming

”Can you believe?…”

“The audacity!”


John ignores the few remarks he can hear—but fuck it. He knows swimming in his shorts is a bad idea…his scars are drawing attention, across his chest and back…

…but goddamnit he’s not wearing one of those fucking jumpsuits in the water. Period.

So by day, John is the only shirtless man on the beach and in the ocean—and by night, he’ll sneak into the water late wearing nothing but skin.

Lanterns

When he learns about the lanterns, John doesn’t hesitate to make a few and set them out by night—nine total.

One for every member of Baker Team…and one for Co Bao.

John can be found by the water after setting them loose—and long after they’ve drifted past his sight, lost in memory and mourning.

It only hits him then that in all these years, he’s never really had a chance to mourn. And Delmar…

This is the first opportunity he’s had to say goodbye.

Lanterns

[personal profile] not_a_traitor 2024-07-22 01:24 am (UTC)(link)
Gaeta's not really a party guy, even on the best of days, so he skipped the bonfire and headed straight over to the lanterns with a bottle of ambrosia and a pack of cigarettes. Quietly, after a time, he started lining up his own set to send onto the water; he's about halfway through when John arrives.

It felt -- selfish, to make a lantern only for his family and friends. So he has thirteen lined up at his feet. Aerilon. Aquaria. Canceron. Caprica. Gemenon. Leonis. Libran. Picon. Sagittaron. Scorpia. Tauron. Virgon. And, after a long hesitation: Earth. In a compromise, he paints Dee's name on the Sagittaron lantern, his family's names on the Picon and Tauron ones.

(He doesn't dare write Louis's on the Aquaria lantern. He still has to hope, somehow, that his ex is alive and unharmed.)

One by one, he lets them drift into the water. On his way back, he passes by John as the other man's setting his own lanterns afloat. He nods a silent greeting; takes a seat, lighting a cigarette as he watches.

And once John's sitting back on the beach, Gaeta, just as silently, holds out the pack of cigarettes in offering.

Cerrit Agrupnin | EXU: Calamity

[personal profile] maltesefalcon 2024-07-21 11:20 pm (UTC)(link)
Look, if Cerrit's going to spend time out in the water, he'd rather not be weighed down by any clothing. So he's made the obvious choice...skinny dipping.

Oh, was that not the proper choice? He is still fully covered by his feathers, but the white of his belly and legs is showing in full.

He is not here as an enforcer, or even deputy lifeguard, but has been convinced to enjoy the day, engaging in whatever activities he wants. This includes:
- Diving for sea urchins and oysters, cracking them open and eating them raw. He can easily be convinced to share. (No one point out to him that the summer months are said to be the worst for oysters.)
- Whatever the local equivalent to Marco Polo is called. Yes, he has an advantage with his eyes closed, but he's also awkward moving on his feet in the water.
- Sunning himself. Did you know that for birds, the heat and sunlight can help spread vital oils on their wings?
- And much more occasionally...brooding. Look, there's a lot of shit going on and a lot on his mind. There are moments, especially once the sun sets, that papa bird goes quiet and prickly and finds a corner to watch everyone else from. Come bother him.

During the quiet nighttime hours, Dahlia comes over to him with a lantern.

She's already built fourteen. What's one more? On it, there are names, written in Dahlia's even hand. One name on each side of the square, plus a stylized pair of wings on the front side. Wrayne. Maya. Kir. She hopes she spelled everything correctly. "Want to come send it out with me?"

Mairi Miann | Dice Shame

[personal profile] listenforbirdsong 2024-07-22 12:50 am (UTC)(link)
Mairi arrives to the beach shindig in a flowy yellow sundress that is stolen by the seabreeze the minute she steps from grass to sand. She didn't invest in a swim suit--- they feel bulky and terrible, even though they're pretty light compared to much of the fashion around here. It's not that she can't swim in that many clothes, she just hates doing it if she doesn't have to.

During the day, she can be found playing the beach hoop sack game or whatever it's called, helping to cook at the pits, then subsequently eating heartily, and swimming in her white slip that she wore under her dress and her bloomers.

After dark, she drinks and dances merrily around the bonfire, catching up with friends. This strawberry wine is good stuff! And during the lantern float, she makes one with a long lost of names written among her doodles on the paper part, sending it off with birdsong and watching it for a long time.

And once the party has died for the night? All the youngsters gone home and the easily scandalized off to bed? She creeps out of her tent and dives back into the sea, this time with nothing on, swimming by the light of the smoldering bonfire and drifting lanterns. She'll gladly go with friends.

And finally, once she's all swam out, Mairi returns to the beach tents wrapped in a blanket to lay on her somewhat sandy bedroll and stargaze.

[Feel free to string multiple activities together or wildcard me!]

SKINNY DIPPERS UNITE

[personal profile] theydrewfirstblood 2024-07-22 01:01 am (UTC)(link)
Mairi isn’t alone in the water—after the lantern ceremony he just…

It’s warm. The sweat drying on his skin…thinking of his buddies, it just feels too thick. Like it did in Vietnam—but a dip in the cool water keeps him in the present.

Then he spots a familiar blue face breaking the water some distance away—blue face and shoulders. Bare shoulders, as he swims closer and tries not to stare.

He tries really hard. Because the water can’t hide everything and she very clearly, very obviously, has a fucking beautiful rack.

“Mermaid wizard!” He calls out with a mischievous smile. “You know they don’t like skin here, right? I been getting dirty looks all day for swimmin’ in shorts.”

Daisy Tonner | OTA

[personal profile] hadnoright 2024-07-22 01:26 am (UTC)(link)

These things are always a bit weird when you don't really eat and can't get drunk, but Daisy still spends some time down at the beach during the festivities. Mostly she spends the time sitting around, on a blanket, enjoying the sun on her skin. But occasionally she paddles in the shallows, dress cinched up. She might even be convinced to join in with a game, though given her strength it can be unintentionally dangerous if she hits a ball too hard.

In the evenings, those who know her might be able to drag her up from where she sits around watching to actually dance. It's only in these later hours she can be seen with a drink in her hand—it still doesn't do anything for her, but the strawberry wine does taste nice, so why not.

And then there's the lanterns. Sentimental and soft and all the things Daisy would have you think she isn't, but despite herself she makes one. On one side, Basira's name. On the other, more hesitantly, enough so that she tries to keep it out of sight during the whole process, 'The World'.

She's not sure if it's really in the spirit, but she's also not sure how else you're meant to mourn for a whole universe swallowed by apocalypse that sometimes you're not sure you really miss, but that's still a loss regardless.

redlightgreenlight: (Kinda Happy)

[personal profile] redlightgreenlight 2024-07-22 01:35 am (UTC)(link)
At least someone is in the can't get drunk club with her. She wanders along the sandy shore, a glass of strawberry wine in her hand. There's zero hesitation between seeing Daisy sitting alone on the blanket and plopping down next to her without spilling a single drop on her white dress.

"How's it going?"

tehilim127_1: (pleased)

Zivia Birnbaum | OC | OTA

[personal profile] tehilim127_1 2024-07-22 01:47 am (UTC)(link)
The Food
On first hearing about the upcoming beach party, Zivia went to find the organizers and asked if she could help with a few extra arrangements. In consequence of which, there's a small side pit by the barbecue on the first day of the festival, in which several fish and (thanks to Anzu's efforts) two chickens are roasting -- enough kosher protein to feed the few here who need it, with some extra in case. Zivia's also taken on supervising a vegetable-only grilling station big enough for everybody, and can be found happily dishing out summer squash and peppers and corn and sliced eggplant and enormous mushroom caps, all painted with the same garlicky-vinegary marinade.

The Beach
As much fun as it might seem, Zivia is not going to go actually swimming. She does wade, however, a little past her knees, seemingly unworried about the hem of her billowy caftan getting wet; anyone splashing past her won't get any complaint about getting any of the rest of her wet either. The sun's strong enough that she'll dry pretty quickly, she figures.
And beach games are all very well -- she'll try the beanbag game, sure -- but what she settles down for eventually is building a sand castle. With a stick of driftwood to help form straight edges and a large cup to mold towers, pretty soon she's got a considerable structure going. Who wants to help?

The Lanterns
On the first night she watches for a while, a fully made paper lantern in her hands unlit, as the first lights drift out onto the water. The expression on her face is hard to read. Maybe come ask her about it? Or maybe ask her about something else, she could probably use the distraction.
incomingchoppers: (oh boy sir!)

A familiar voice calls, "Oh hey Miss Birnbaum!"

Since Radar got promoted to Miss Leeds' personal assistant, he hasn't been working quite as closely with Zivia and Fever as he used to. He misses them! And hey, there's Zivia building a sandcastle!

Beaming, he jogs across the sand to meet her. He's got a cup of wine in hand, but (luckily for his ability to assist with any sandcastle-related engineering) hasn't had more than a sip or two yet. "How's it going?"

bugreport: Resting Ginko face (neutral)

Ginko | Mushishi | OTA

[personal profile] bugreport 2024-07-22 02:03 am (UTC)(link)
Afternoon of the 21st
Ever since he did what could, in extremely loose terms, be called "moving in" to his new house, Ginko's been drifting, doing his best to stay away from the town and get to know the terrain of the island. The time he spent trapped on the Stag Beetle doesn't seem to have affected the town once the floodwaters receded, but he doesn't want to take chances.

But there's no way in hell he's passing up this much free food. He has a small grilled fish on a skewer in his mouth and two more queued up in his left hand. In between trips back to the firepits to reload, he's wading around in the surf with his pants rolled up to his knees, rooting around with his free hand for rocks and seashells. Whatever esoteric criteria he's judging them by, none of them seem to have been worth keeping yet.

Evening of the 22nd
In an uncharacteristic moment of acknowledging his own emotions, Ginko surprised himself by accepting a lantern. As others send theirs floating out to sea, however, he sits at the edge of the water, holding his own in indecisively loose hands and staring pensively at the glow, as though he's not sure whether setting it adrift is the right thing to do.

Night of the 22nd
Ginko doesn't even bother to claim a tent or bedroll when others start to bed down for the night, just returns to where he left his shoes and plops down in the sand. He's slept in much less comfortable conditions. Anyone watching might notice him awake for some time, one arm propped behind his head and the other raised to slowly trace the path of the galactic arc in the sky. Whenever he reaches the point where it dips behind the horizon he props himself up on one elbow and seems to spend some time tracing a similar arc, one that, from the angles involved, would pass deep below the earth.

Edgar | Snowpiercer (2013) | OTA

[personal profile] hate_gettin_older 2024-07-22 02:25 am (UTC)(link)
He remembers the bonfire party on the lakeside back in the fairy town, however long ago that was. That's about the closest to this he's experienced before, and somehow being by the ocean is different. The real ocean, not the constant changeless sea around the Serena Eterna, to one side; the forest and the town to the other side; the stretch of sand between them, and the celebration going on there for days. The danger's past and his people returned, and he's ready to have a good time.

Find him at the Baker Ranch campsite on the beach, or going back to the food tables for seconds or thirds or who's-counting, or playing in the water -- he can't really swim and won't go out too far, but he can't resist splashing around. (The bathing suits on offer all looked ridiculous to him, so he's in clean undershorts and a strappy t-shirt -- it's basically the same as the swimsuits, isn't it? And it isn't striped.)

And at night, when the music and the bonfire are both going, find him attempting to dance. He's not great at it, but what he lacks in polish he makes up for in enthusiasm. Maybe you'd like to dance with him?

Claude's having to stick to the shallows as well, though not due to a lack of being able to swim-- it's because of the one year old he's babysitting. Claude's sitting with Sally's daughter, Gwen where the water is just deep enough to cover her little legs, trying to get her to splash. He goes a little overboard in his demonstration in an attempt to make the baby laugh, and Edgar gets caught in the splash.

"Whoops, sorry!" He doesn't sound that sorry about it.

It wasn't fully her department to look at the planning for all of this, but Fever's been trying to peek at the details in Town Hall since she caught wind of it. It sounded fun, low stakes, and important in terms of what it meant - and being here, she's glad it all came together. Her dress is closer to local styles, and that means it keeps her feeling cool, seawater kissing the hem when she walks to the water's edge. And thankfully, the place needing helper staff means she's in a decent mood attending to tasks here and there. If people need assistance with getting things organized, moving them around, she'll do what she can or find who should be helping.

That said, she's not passing on the food, doing what she's done before and trying a bit of anything and everything, sometimes deep in thought about what to try or accidentally bumping into someone else reaching for the same tray. Or sitting down with a grimace and holding her head - the culprit now isn't her own condition, but the shaved orange ice sitting before her. Apparently you can't eat this too fast.

summer nights.

The night is here, the refreshments haven't ceased, and this is when she relaxes a little more. It's inevitable that she'd wind up dancing with people, enjoying the music, but she's also liable to just go walking along the shoreline. Glass of strawberry wine in hand, watching the lanterns go out from a distance, trying to dwell in the happier moments of the day, resisting anything wretched that billows up.

When her thoughts get loud, that's when she fully strips down and goes out swimming, clearing them out via activity. She has very little shame about her own body, particularly when other people won't see as well as she does. Darkvision has a few perks. If she knows you well enough and you're part of the group? You just might get someone swimming up behind you, whispering boo into your ear.

wildcard.

We all know what this one is for. Anything else, go for it, or talk to me if you're unsure.

She's said she wouldn't go swimming, but when she sees Fever walking out into the waves, she leaves her own dress in a puddle on the sand and follows her out.

"It's warmer than I thought it would be."

At home it would be Highsummer, the festival to honor the Dawnfather, with lights and singing and exchanges of gifts. This celebration on the beach has a certain congruence, she supposes. And since her recent visit to the Temple, she's been finding herself looking for those congruences -- even though she's never been terribly devout, and isn't sure why it feels like it matters.

Cassandra finds a suitably casual-but-festive dress, regretfully decides against swimwear, and joins the festivities midway through the first morning. Find her enjoying the live music (though probably not dancing, unless someone asks her to), strolling along the sand, drinking lemonade or strawberry wine, trying to figure out how to eat barbecue tidily, or being deeply alarmed by her first sight of an animate skeleton.

Or, during the early evening, working on constructing a single floating lantern with several names inscribed on it.

Dedue decides to work on his own lanterns nearby Cass, enjoying a comfortable silence. He is inscribing names in different languages, depending on what’s most fitting to their memory.

After some time, he asks gently, “Are you well?”

Don Quixote ~ LIMBUS COMPANY | OTA

[personal profile] suenoimposible 2024-07-22 05:39 am (UTC)(link)

Beach:

She hath heard of such a beach festival and brought herself appropriate garb for such. She must admit, she hath never seen a swimsuit of such modesty before, 'tis quite strange. Though she cannot deny the fashionability of such even if it's rather restrictive compared to those in the City. And of course, she must bring her beach umbrella! El Sol is quite the formidable foe in the summer and her skin must not be afflicted by his burning gaze! Don looks at the beach festival in awe, 'tis even more beautiful than the beaches of U Corp's Nest, and this time she'd be able to attend such festivities!

And if her eyes don't deceive her, that's a real game of BEACH VOLLEYBALL!!!!! She hath wished to play a game of volleyball proper ever since she'd gazed upon the beaches of U Corp! Fie! She hath been unable to do so and yet it seemed to be so fun..... She's not entirely sure of the rules of such a sport either but she's fairly certain it's similar to playing football but with one's hands. Don promptly goes up and asks to join in a game once there's room for her on a team.

Don's also going for a swim afterward. Though, she doesn't seem to be taking off her sneakers when going for a swim... or ever at all really if you knew Don well enough. Don's also likely to participate in whatever other games may arise, alongside sneaking herself a serving of strawberry sorbet or three whenever she can manage to do so. 'Tis such a delightful treat after all!

Barbecue!!!!

'Tis such a bountiful feast they hath arranged, and the decorations set up are simply immaculate here! Don hungrily stares at the assorted roasted meats, savoring the rich flavorful smell of it as it cooks over the pit. It seems they even have fresh citrus as well!

It's a bit hard for Don to resist simply taking a serving of the still-cooking pork with how appetizing it is, but she's able to conjure enough patience for such to properly be served. Don grabs for herself a few skewers of lamb and pork, alongside an orange and strawberry juice on the side. Such a beautiful meal that lies before her.... Don, with a delighted expression, eagerly chomps down on her food in a manner that's rather ineloquent compared to her speech patterns. To anyone accompanying her, Don sings out praises of the food in the midst of eating and insists that they also savor themselves a few kebabs!

Night:

Don's normally not one to drink excessively but the strawberry wine has such a sweet smell, and the flavor of such is truly immaculate. So how could she resist having... a bit much. Don's a bit drunker than usual at night if anyone goes to talk with her. She's also attempting to dance... with emphasis on attempting. She isn't actually that good at dancing, and probably even worse now that there's alcohol in her system. She's certainly putting her best effort in at least.

[personal profile] spaghettification 2024-07-22 04:44 pm (UTC)(link)
Siebren doesn't make an appearance on the beach until the sun has set, either night of the party. He brings his telescope and his violin, and seems to keep a distance from the raucous fun that everyone else is engaging in. Near the party, but not a part of it. The moons are lovely, the stars sing, and Siebren is absolutely not up to this.

But this is a valiant effort, and he's glad to share telescope time with anyone else, or offer furniture music for those not minded to dance. If you're a friend, you might even get a request via sending stone to venture into the heart of the party and liberate some of the food for him.

While he doesn't float any lanterns, toward the end of the second night's festivities he makes an ascent of his own, drifting maybe thirty feet above the beach, trying to take it all in. Everyone is full of joy and laughter.

why can't he make himself fit in with their joy and laughter?

There's more than one wallflower here, at least.

After helping set up, he almost didn't stay. He really, very, quite strongly considered not staying. He figured Hawkeye might be here and would rather not ruin such a terrific festival for him, but most of all he just...

... it didn't feel right. For one thing, he tended to not be invited much to parties, being a shy and devout boy, and then he became a priest; one is hardly inclined to invite a Catholic priest to much of a party.

But he stays. During the day, he throws himself into it. Feeling like hell is the best time to celebrate; that's why they partied during the war, between waves of wounded and shelling and shortages. All his love for athleticism and sport is intact, and he takes joy in it.

And at night, the fires are burning, and people are still laughing, and he cannot laugh too.

He sounds out lanterns. One of all of his friends, lost in the void beyond that ship. One for Henry.

One for Hawkeye.

Mulcahy sits apart now, some ways down the beach. His Klefki, Peter, hovers at his side. He's been watching Siebren for a little while, wondering about his telescope and violin, but too reserved to ask.

Gwen Stacy | OTA

[personal profile] thismaskismybadge 2024-07-22 08:02 pm (UTC)(link)

Did Gwen spend the last of her brass until the new month rolls around on her bathing suit? Maybe. Does she regret that choice? Not currently, ask again later. She feels cute in her ruffled pink suit and way less hyper-aware of her body than she does in modern swimsuits, so she's happy with her poor financial decisions.

She spends a lot of time in the water, swimming out as far as she dares to and diving beneath the waves. People she knows might find their ankles being grabbed from underwater, or be surprised by her exploding out of the water near them—she will accept any and all consequences for this decision. She'll also try and drag people into games of chicken fight—you know, four players, two on the other's shoulders, fight to knock the other team down.

Out of the water, she stuffs her face with barbecue and sweet treats in-between chatting with people, laying around relaxing, or occasionally playing about with the sand. Come the evenings, she might try and convince her older friends to slip her some strawberry wine, but otherwise she spends her time either dancing or relaxing around the bonfire listening to the music.

"Man, if moving drums around wasn't such a nightmare playing out here would've been pretty cool."

You ever visibly see the [NAME] will remember this tag appear just in the look on someone's face? That drum comment clearly hit Cecil with an idea. It's the second day of the party when he brings over a set of empty wooden boxes and metal pails from the cooking area, along with a couple wooden spoons, a ladle, and even a whisk.

Shen Qingqiu (Yuan) | The Scum Villain's Self-Saving System

[personal profile] xiaoxiuya 2024-07-22 08:43 pm (UTC)(link)
Sunset...

Something strange happened to Shen Qingqiu during that shared dream, stranger than anything the others experienced. His ghost didn't join the others -- it quietly wandered off into the woods instead, clutching its head and flickering as if it were a struggle to hold itself together. Whether he came back to life with everyone else the next morning or wandered further, a tortured spectre, who can say? He certainly didn't show up to work.

From Shen Qingqiu's perspective, getting splashed in the face with salt water is like waking up from a dark, terrible dream. He sits up, sputtering, to find himself sitting directly in the ocean surf, stripped down to his underrobe and linen trousers and soaking wet. He rakes his hair out of his face with one hand, staring around in confusion.

...Is that a party going on further down the beach, or is he still dreaming?

Midnight

Eventually Shen Qingqiu does join the party, although he appears to be in a somewhat fragile state and winces, rubbing his temple, whenever the sounds of carousing get too close. He drinks heavily, but he's also ravenously hungry -- and after he's put away approximately three times as much food as it seems his reed-like body should be able to hold, he finally seems to mellow out a little and relax into the party atmosphere. No doubt there are one or two people who might like to know where he's been, these past few days. He certainly would!

Siebren's at the telescope when Shen Qingqiu walks past. He lifts his head, offers a bit of a nod and the ghost of a smile.

"I haven't seen you since...ah...the Larkin Estate."

Cecil Gershwin Palmer | Welcome to Night Vale

[personal profile] lasthumanvoice 2024-07-23 05:48 am (UTC)(link)
"Cecil? I think I saw him over by the kosher food pit."

"No, no, he's helping to set up the volleyball court."

"Really? He was just at the fish fry station a moment ago."


Cecil Gershwin Palmer is At the Beach Party. That is impossible to deny, people have been seeing him all over the place since early in the morning. But it's hard to catch him where he is, because he doesn't seem to be staying in one place very long.

That isn't to say it's all work, no play. Witnesses swear he was just listening to music--no, eating a meal--no, looking for something heavy to smash a watermelon open with. Really, he's just all over the place.

You've managed to spot him somewhere. If you want him, catch him quick, before he flutters off like a firefly, trailing you in his wake.

Jeff isn't looking for Cecil, which is probably why he happens to find Cecil when others keep on just-missing him.

Or, rather, Jeff's stray ball finds him. It doesn't hit Cecil, but it comes pretty close, careening way off from the makeshift volleyball court.

"Fuck-- My bad, dude," he chirps, jogging on over to Cecil. He smiles, a little too wide and sharp, but totally harmless. Totally. "I've got the worst aim."

inaurate: (some nights i always win i always win)

Claude von Riegan | OTA

[personal profile] inaurate 2024-07-24 11:28 pm (UTC)(link)
hot boy summer

Having made an agreement with Sally that he'd take Gwen once she and Arthur were ready to start drinking, Claude gets all his swimming in earlier in the day-- that's when the sun is at its hottest and the water feels best anyway. He's also happy to join in a round of volleyball, and has wicked good aim even with a sack of dried beans.

flight practice

Sally's daughter is just barely a year old, and she's becoming more of a person with every day, and it's a delight to watch. He's never actually thought much about family planning, seeing it as something he would get to in the far future when he feels he can finally have time for such things but-- does he want kids? He thinks he might want kids. Huh.

Right now, he's perfectly fine being Uncle Claude, though. He helps her take some toddling steps over the sand, until she looks up at him, babbling something repetitive and insistent. "What's up, kid?" He lets go of her hands and she wobbles for a moment, then continues reaching up, her little hands making a grabby motion. "Ohhh, I see. You want flight practice with Uncle Claude?"

He scoops her up by the armpits, and she's already giggling even before he starts tossing her in the air and catching her. "I'll make a wyvern rider out of you! Don't tell your mom."

nightfall

The night is a calmer one for Claude-- he of course stuffs himself with as much roasted meat as he reasonably can, washing it down with a glass or two of wine. He makes sure Gwen gets something she can actually eat. He can be found dancing, either with Gwen held to his side or with him holding her up while she stands on his feet, and he's perfectly fine roping bystanders into a dance as well.

At the end of the night, he sends out two lanterns-- one for distant friends, and another for lives cut short. By then, Gwen's been asleep for hours, tucked into the tent Claude claimed-- though he's dragged his own bedroll just outside of it to enjoy the view of the stars.

Crabs & Sand
"More to the left," Elsie tells one of the purple crabs, gesturing with her arm as if holding a knife and stabbing. "Like this!"

The girl is crouching down beside one of the tents, wearing a dress that seems to be stitched out of a plethora of materials, and wearing no shoes at all. Today, her hair is a deep ocean blue. It makes her skin look paler.

"Try again," she encourages the dueling crabs. "Harder!"

Should she be teaching them this?

Melancholoy Lights
Later on, in the evening, Elsie sits alone on the shoreline with a single lantern held out in front of her in both hands. She stares at it a moment as if enraged, but also grief-stricken. Then, she closes her eyes and drops the lantern into the sand. A wave laps up, rushing against her toes, before carrying the lantern away to sea. Elsie opens her eyes but she can hardly see the pinprick of candlelight through the tears welling up in them.

Very softly to herself, she whispers, "Mother, where are you?"

A young woman with a lantern of her own is approaching, and comes to a startled stop when she sees Elsie sitting there.

"I -- I'm sorry," hastily, "I didn't see you."

I. COME BOTHER HIM / WILDCARD OPTION
Jeff's different. Ever since his return to the island, he seems lighter, happier, vibrant, and totally unburdened. Sure, he's still dreamy and seems like he's got one foot in another world, but it's almost like some deep wound inside of him has healed. Which, hey, good for him!

And even though he's just returned and remembers nobody and nothing about his life here, he's still Jeff, so of course he's going to be at the beach from start to finish. It's almost like he just appears as soon as the festivities start. And though he's still wearing the standard issue linen shirt and trousers he arrived in, Jeff's tried his best to spruce his look up by borrowing some of the decor to twine in his hair, fashion into a belt, wear as bracelets and necklaces, and so on. He's giving... hippie nature boy pirate.

Anyway, Jeff's often found near the stage, enjoying the live shows and supporting his pals in Pumpkin Hollow's local music scene, which he's wasted no time reintegrating himself into since his return. But he's also making the rounds and enjoying all that the festival has to offer, so you can surely run into him during a number of activities! He'll be around, participating in pretty much everything, often while enjoying some frozen treat or, occasionally, some strawberry wine. For once, it looks like he's drinking in moderation, instead of rushing to get as wasted as possible, as quickly as possible.

II. A ROUSING GAME
Time for some volleyball! Sure, Jeff totally sucks at sports, so he misses more often than not, or bumps the ball out of bounds, or only manages to bop it right into the net, but sometimes... sometimes you might catch him singing a little tune under his breath, and suddenly, it's like some invisible force starts lending a hand. (Usually, that invisible force is just sabotaging the other team by making the ball veer wildly out of control...)

Feel free to call him out. Or return the favor and play dirty. Or throw sand at him after the game, I dunno, go wild, I don't know anything about volleyball.

III. PERFORMANCE ISSUES (cw: empathic/emotional manipulation)
[ This prompt includes use of empathic/emotional manipulation magic that is strictly opt-in! Your character may be totally unaffected, or mildly affected, or completely affected, or just notice it occurring in others, and can react to it however you choose. It's totally possible to put two and two together and recognize Jeff as the source if your character is the sort who would, whether through magical attenuation, psychic abilities, detective skills, etc. Here's more info on his magic. ]

Jeff doesn't perform until later in the night, when the sun's down and the bonfire's raging. His set's a nice little mix of original songs (they tend to be catchy, if a bit silly, irreverent, and fairly juvenile) and covers of other artists. As he performs, the flames of the bonfire twist and swirl, contorting into dancing figures, animals, shifting landscapes, playing out scenes to accompany his music. It's like his own personal, vaguely abstract MTV!

During his penultimate song-- a cover of Taylor Swift, of all artists (weird, isn't Jeff from the 90s?)-- a light, borderline euphoric feeling begins to wash over a number of people in the crowd. Not everybody, no, but a decent chunk of people listening may feel it. But it's probably nothing, right? Just the result of good vibes and too much wine. But some people in the crowd may begin to feel a strange sort of giddiness begin to bubble up inside of them. At first, it might even be pleasant. A little surge of joy, where's the harm in that?

But that giddiness escalates, begins to spike with each 'It's me, hi, I'm the problem, it's me...' There's a sharpness to it, like each racing heartbeat has been weaponized, and it may be hard to breathe as giddiness shifts to panic, and for a moment, one's vision might swim as their head goes light, and it can be hard to tell if the body wants to laugh or cry--

--and then he goes into a performance of Silver Springs to finish out his set, and a sense of calm begins to wash over those who'd been so, you know, moved by that last song. But even that calmness is disconcerting, almost blatantly artificial. Is Jeff the cause? Does he even know what's going on? He's looking at home on the stage, beaming and shining bright, and as he finishes his set, he thanks the crowd and bounds off the stage, fully energized.

He's practically buzzing with excitement as the next act starts to perform, flitting around and chatting people up, especially if they seem dazed by his set.

"Hey! Enjoy the show? I-- ooh! I love this song, let's dance!"

IV. PAPER LANTERNS
Anyone setting their own paper lanterns out to water may have a nosy Jeff approach, eyes wide with curiosity. He's got his own lantern in his hands, the paper decorated with doodles of flowers in pretty, spiraling patterns.

"Who's that for?"

Late at night, however, once most people have either left or fallen asleep, Jeff's sitting by the water, setting out lantern after lantern, looking a little more subdued than before. As each one drifts out further into the water, figures appear in the sea. A few men, a few women, a bear-- or is that an owl?-- and a... very large rat? They have faces, but they're difficult to make out in the darkness, and they disappear once their respective lanterns reach them, as if driven away by the light. He's got one last lantern in his hands, and there's one more figure out at sea, standing there as if waiting for its lantern. It almost seems impatient, like it's totally over his shit.

Jeff smiles and waves at it. It flips him off.

(Don't mind him, he's just amusing himself with some illusion magic.)

Performance Issues

After Jeff's concert, Ylva goes to seek him in the crowd, with a few questions in her mind while she tries to shake off the daze that seems to have settled on her. She's not as affected as some, certainly, but her head does seem to swim a bit, and she doesn't think it's completely the fault of the strawberry wine.

"What did you do?" she asks, direct and to the point.

Alice Dyer | OTA

[personal profile] closureisformovies 2024-07-27 12:28 am (UTC)(link)

Alice is mostly here to vibe. Eat some free barbecue, give herself brain-freeze with icy treats, drink some strawberry wine—she manages to keep herself mostly sober until the evenings, at least, though after that point there's no guarantee.

Occasionally, she paddles at the edge of the water to cool off. But mostly she sits around under an umbrella, sun hat on for good measure, enjoying the sun and the view and watching people have fun. Her own fun includes play-by-play reactions to volleyball games and sack tossing alike, cheers or exaggerated winces or the odd shout of something like, "Jump higher!" or "Under-arm it!"—so, you know, unhelpful.

In the evenings, she's a little more tipsy-on-the-way-to-drunk and absolutely shameless about dancing to the live music. There are few arenas in her life where Alice Dyer possesses can be embarrassed and, after enough nights out at uni and attending her brother's gigs, this is not one of them. You may even find yourself being encouraged (read: dragged) into joining in, letting loose a little.

She's just a normal woman having a normal fun time. Don't ever look behind the curtain to the horror protagonist beneath.
