VALENTINES CHARITY - Feoveuer 14th

THE FESTIVAL OF LOVE


"At the Festival of Love: Shine like thunder
At the Festival of Love: Cry like rain
At the Festival of Love: Hear my calling
At the Festival of Love: Hear my name"


...wait, who prepared this poster? The vibe it gives off is totally wrong... ah, well, it will do! ♥





I. Welcome! ♥

On Feoveuer 14th regulars of DiplomaTea will immediately notice that the place looks different. Fresh flowers, garlands and paper decorations are everywhere, all in lovely shades of pink and red. Heart-shaped confetti is falling from the ceiling, magicked to disappear shortly after touching the floor so it would not make a mess. Quiet music is filling the whole cafe, one of the many masterpieces of Amadeus Mozart and a particual favorite of Marie who picked this particular song to play. Even those who have missed Marie's flyers and announcements about the upcoming event would definitely notice that something joyous is going on inside, why not check it out and join everyone?

If you haven't heard before, the posters will explain everything. Today's event, The Festival of Love celebrates the holiday known as Valentine's Day some Mirrorbound might be familiar with. This is the day to celebrate love in all shapes and forms. Spend a wonderful, romantic evening with your partner... or your friends and family, because these kinds of love are important too! Or get some sweets and eat them all by yourself, because self love is also important! All money collected during today's event will go to aid the refugees and help those who have been affected during last month - celebration of love for your fellow woman, man and everyone else.


a. Preparations ♥

Of course an event this big cannot happen without the help of many. Making and putting up the decorations, enchanting the confetti and music, building the booths, preparing the tables, all of this and much more took almost the whole previous day. Everett will also defintely need part-timers to help tending to the increased number of custoers during the event. If you visited DiplomaTea during that time, you probably couldn't enjoy your drink in peace... or maybe you were roped into helping? Marie gives you a pleading look. Every pair of hands is useful, you know!


II. The Festival of Love ♥

Kissing Booths ♥

Two hastily made but lovingly decorated wooden booths have been placed on DiplomaTea porch. For supporting the cause with a small fee of 100 cunes the person inside will gladly give you a lovely kiss... though you are, of course, welcome to throw an even bigger amount into the donation box! The Mirrorbound staff the booths in shifts so nobody will be forced to sit out the whole event and more volunteers are always welcome... come on, don't you want to support the charitable cause? Marie is quite persuasive, she might find a way to convince you even if it's not something you would have usually agreed to ♥ Or maybe your crush is currently in the booth and this is your big chance? Either way, thank you for your support, good people!


Bake Sale ♥

Are you skilled with the cooking appliances? Would you like these skills to serve a good cause? The tables just next to the main entrance of DiplomaTea have been filled with cakes, pastries and other kinds of sweets donated by Mirrorbound - help yourself to some! You have to pay for it, of course, but all the money collected helps the charitable cause! For those who are not fond of sweet things, savory and spicy snacks are also found on the table.

Did you bring a dish? Would you like to buy something? Or maybe you are just staffing the tables and helping with the bake sale itself? All kinds of help are appreciated! Are you culinarily challenged but refuse to admit it? Thank you for your donation anyway, it is going on sale! Did anyone see the Fae who donated these cupcakes? These appear to be enchanted and eating one will cause you to say the opposite what you mean for fifteen minutes. What do you mean, Marie, we are putting these on sale as well? Could it be... that Fae was... No, impossible!


Auction ♥

Want to support the cause with a bigger sum? As a part of the main event, a couple of items will be auctioned. To show their support, the Coven donated several valuables that could definitely be of use for both Witches and Monsters:
  • an ornate golden ring Fae-blessed to provide the wearer 12 hours of invisibility (which does not have to be used consecutively, it's 'turned on and off' by rubbing the stone set into it, and does not conceal the wearer from other Fae)
  • a suit set and a dress that will both transform magically to fit whatever Monster form the wearer has (and will also take on the wearer's color and design preferences)
  • a book on imbuing baked goods with minor luck spells - good and bad both.
Place your bids now! But that's not everything that will be put on sale today - donations from Mirrorbound are also accepted and will be auctioned! Do you have any items you no longer need and could contribute? Maybe it's something you have crafted yourself? Or a voucher for any kind of services you can provide? Whatever it is, thank you for your donation! Yes, even if it's enchanted. Especially if it is enchanted!

Not donating or buying anything? You could certainly help with the organization part! That pile of items over there... Mind checking out what we even have there and assign starting bids?



A Word from our Sponsor ♥

DiplomaTea is offering a couple of special offers on this special day, all proceeds will be donated! Extra large mug of cinnamon cocoa you can share with a special person to warm up your bodies and hearts. You can also drink it yourself if you want to, nobody will judge you and certainly not Everett. However, even if you came here by yourself... Are you sure you can finish it by yourself? How about splitting the cocoa with someone who also came alone? That's the spirit of the day! 

For those interested in a drink that can provide more thrill than simple cocoa, Everett is offering a tea blend called Ardric's Warmth. In his own words, it tastes like a live firecracker and has enough caffeine to raise the dead. And yet, this blend seems to have its dedicated fans in Aefenglom, especially among Dragons. Dare to try it? Or maybe someone tricked you into drinking some?


Inkchanted Corner ♥

Caster Cú Chulainn is doing a promotion on behalf of his and Waver's tattoo shop, Inkchanted. Still undecided if you would like to visit their place? Unsure about a permanent tattoo? You can try it out here and help the cause! For a low fee you can have Caster draw a small, enchanted painting on your skin. It can make you give off a charming aura, perfect if you are still looking for someone to spend the evening with or trying to grab the attention of that particular person. Or maybe you are celebrating self love and just want a spell that will allow you to eat a lot of sweets without consequences tonight? Perfect! Another idea? Be sure to communicate it well, you would not want to end up with an enchanted painting that gives a different effect you originally wanted... though even if you do, the magic will only work for a few hours. You can wait that long, can you?


Magic Show ♥

Trucy Wright, one of the recent arrivals to Aefenglom is on stage and about to perform her splendid magic show! Huh, that's nothing special in Aefenglom, you might think. Magic is an everyday thing for every Witch after all. However, this young lady here is not a Witch, so how does she do it? With totally real magic, of course! Get your seats and pay close attention to everything she does, but you are not very likely to notice anything - this girl is a professional, after all. In using real magic, of course! Or maybe you have similar skills? You are welcome to join her on stage and perform your own well-practiced trick. If it's not as well-practiced as you thought... well, at least you made the audience laugh? In need of a charming assistant? Just pick someone more or less willing from the audience!


III. Cleanup ♥

Tired after a busy day? Congratulate yourself on a job well done, we managed to collect a nice sum that will certainly help a lot! But before you can rest in your bed, there's more to be done. Taking off decorations, removing the confetti enchantments, washing the dishes, collecting the trash and cleaning the whole place. We cannot leave Everett alone with this mess after he was so nice to allow the usage of DiplomaTea for today's event, can we? You can stay and help, can you? Maybe there are some leftowers from the bake sale to sweeten the deal?

II. The Festival of Love

♥ Kissing Booth

[For a good cause, Towa was happy to give whatever assistance she was able to. What she hadn’t expected was this. The holiday is still rather new to her— cute, but very different. She can’t say she minds sharing a little affection. This may be just the change in spirit the city needs.

Although she’s not sure her participation will be of any great help, she wants to do what she can anyway. So should you wish, you can pay for a kiss from the adorable, short witch at one of the counters.
]

...oh! Me? Really? I-If that’s okay then—

[Despite agreeing, with the other options available she didn’t think that anyone would choose her. She’s a flustered kind of happy about it.]

♥ Bake Sale

[Baking was something Towa enjoyed very much and sweets were her specialty— so there are a wide variety of cookies, miniature cakes and fudges that she made herself and donated to the cause. And to make sure they get sold, she doesn’t mind trying something fun and cute in the spirit of the holiday.]

If you donate a little extra, I’d be happy to feed it to you~

festival of love.

[this isn't his scene, that much is clear from someone who'd wear black and gray to a Valentine's celebration. still, Dantes walks through DiplomaTea with purpose, and at the least intends on participating in a minor fashion if not at the kissing booths. he might be eyeing the offerings at the bake sale with a critical eye, focused primarily on the savory side of things while he weighs what's important. alternately, he puts down a quiet bet on the auction for the suit set - someone may outbid him, of course, but if he drives the price up higher, then it will do well.

of course, he's the sort that takes to the tea blend of Adric's Warmth over the cocoa - and though he's sitting alone, there are two cups at the table. surely, he can't be intending to drink both of those. surely, he absolutely is intending to ascend to the next astral plane and do so. and if the festivities get to be too much, you may find him at times chilling out outside in the porch area taking a breather. some of the confetti is sticking in his hair. it's really quite pervasive a thing.]

Momo | Witch

[personal profile] yesdoubt 2020-02-15 03:33 am (UTC)(link)
[a: kissing booths]

[Valentine's Day is something Momo typically spends with his partner one way or another, so a celebration isn't really helping his homesickness on that front. However, there's a great (as far as he's concerned) way to distract himself sitting right here, and that's herding the hesitant and the shy who look like they might be considering it into the kissing booths for other people to deal with.

His approach depends on the person - people who look cagey or particularly shy might just get him sliding up next to them dramatically, while people who look like they won't react too badly to being touched might just get him gently pointing them towards the booth by the shoulders, one arm lingering at their back to make escape slightly more awkward.]


Well, don't just stand there thinking about it all day, or you'll miss your chance! Don't those people look like they're just waiting for you~?

[He probably doesn't even know the staff in the booths right now, honestly, but he does know how to sell an experience.]

--

[b: bake sale]

[On the topic of making things sound more appealing, it doesn't take long after deciding to help the bake sale for Momo to figure out that there's enchanted cupcakes in the mix of goodies on the table. He's put his pranking habits away for the most part since he got here, but this is too good an opportunity to pass up, and so anyone who approaches the bake sale table while he's on it will have their attention directed to that particular batch. After he's given a wink and blown a kiss in greeting, of course - it's been his job for the last five years to make everyone feel special, no matter who they happen to be.]

What kind of sweets do you prefer? If you're undecided, I know these ones have been popular today. [He pushes forward the plate with the innocuous-looking enchanted cupcakes on it, red nails lingering on the edge of the plate as if to draw further attention to it.]

--

[c: a word from our sponsor]

[Considering the lengths Momo has to go to to stay awake with his schedule back home sometimes, he can't help but be curious at the bold caffeine claims made by this firecracker tea, mostly because they're a rare example of claims bolder than the kinds of things that end up on energy drinks in his world. It's not that reassuring when just smelling it almost makes him cough, but he's nothing if not adventurous about food, so he braces himself and takes a substantial sip of the drink.

Weirdly enough, after almost choking on it out of sheer surprise, he actually doesn't mind the taste, and the caffeine...well, he visibly brightens up, to a point that it might be potentially worrying.]
Oh hey, I actually like this...

[And then he promptly holds it out to whoever happens to be nearby, a look on his face that says he's determined to share this...experience with someone. At least he seemed to enjoy it?] Want to try?

i. helping hand

Oh boy.

[Hakuno has a shiny banner in her hands, and looks fairly put out. She's at the top of a step ladder, but as it stands the added height isn't quite enough to get her high enough to hook it up.

She heaves a sigh. The small wings on her back, no wider than her ribcage, give a sulky flutter.]


Being able to fly would be pretty handy right about now...


ii. a for auction and kissing booth

[There's so much to see. It's far from the biggest place she's ever been to, certainly, but it's a bustling, busy space wherever she turns. There's a mug of cinnamon cocoa in her hand and a bid with her name on it waiting on the luck spell cook book, and she...

Well, she's inwardly debating how much more she's going to patronize, before she makes another turn towards the bake sale area.

By luck, she drifts to a stop in front of one of the kissing booths, and tries not to get flustered when she makes eye contact with its current worker.]


...hello! Busy day, so far?


ii. b for bake sale

Ah, are we out of those cookies already? The ones with the cinnamon on them.

[If there's one thing that Hakuno Kishinami is good at, it's running around up to her neck in busy work. She tied her hand at making some of the treats, with careful instruction, but now goes to and fro making sure the sale stalls are properly stocked. With an apron tossed over her outfit for the festival, she more or less blends into the crowd until she speaks up.]


iii. cleanup crew

Let's see... Does this need to be separated from normal trash, since it's magic?

[She's sweeping up a small pile of enchanted confetti, but she's not quite sure just what Step 2 of this chore is going to be.

Anybody want to help a girl out?]



iv. obligatory wildcard

[If you want a custom starter or have any ideas, hit me up here! I'm open to plotting on [plurk.com profile] shanatic or by PM, too.]

Hector | Faun

[personal profile] petcromancer 2020-02-15 04:14 am (UTC)(link)
Preparations

[Hector is not the most observant when it comes to social affairs, and he still uses his watch mainly to take pictures of his dog, not to read messages. So he wanders in to the tea shop not expecting a big event.

Before he can sneak away, he finds himself being press ganged into service. It doesn't occur to him to say no to a direct order to help, so here he is, hanging up paper heart decorations.]


How is this a heart? It looks nothing like one.

[He's grumbling, but still doing the job, so it's probably fine?]

Kissing Booth

[This is a job much better suited to Cezar the pug than Hector the faun-in-progress. But Cezar isn't here, and Hector is, and Marie was someone incredibly convincing when this shift started.

It absolutely has nothing to do with the fact that since the full moon, he's started noticing how people look in a way that he had previously ignored. Maybe a kiss or two wouldn't go amiss.

So he's here, trying not to eye the door too obviously.]


Come support...the needy? [Who are they raising money for? Hector hasn't been here long and is so out of the loop. Victims of a recent tragedy or something? Probably.]

Clean-Up

[Once the crowds have left and DiplomaTea is quieter, Hector is actually much more relaxed. He claims a cup of the slightly cooled tea and some leftover slivers of baked goods to sample, though he hops up from his chair as another helper goes by with scraps for the garbage.]

Wait, don't throw those out. I'll take them.

[He's got mouths to feed at home, and none of them are picky.]

Leslie | Witch

0. A Note For CR

[Leslie's discovery of the meaning of Valentine's Day (note: she thinks it's entirely about giving chocolates to friends) did not result in any chocolates that she thinks are usable, since Leslie's complete lack of experience in the kitchen was a bit of a high hurdle for Akko's lessons. Initially, she moped and gave up on the idea, but then she remembered she lives with Bernadetta. Who can cook.

As such, if you have had an even vaguely positive thread with Leslie, including in the dream, she will give you a double-chocolate muffin if she sees you during the day, either at DiplomaTea or around the Haven when she is advertising the Festival of Love. She will be carrying them around in a bag with a strap over her shoulder.

Most people will get one muffin, but a subset will get two or three in a little bag:

Akko (for letting her know about Valentine's Day and trying to teach her about making food), Bernadetta (for actually teaching her how to bake), Edelgard (for taking her into her house), Hubert (because she'd feel bad if he was the only member of the household who only got one muffin), Nana (because Leslie wants to make a friend her own age and also she's not 100% sure if Nana has a proper food supply??), Hakuno and Lorenz (for being so explicit about becoming her friend that even Leslie couldn't mistake it as someone being kind), and literally anyone who looks sad that they didn't get two (though since it will be unplanned, it will not be in a bag).

Honestly just in general it will be easy to make Leslie give in and give people a muffin unless someone points out that this is kind of undercutting the Bake Sale.]


I. Welcome

[Leslie discovered about the upcoming Festival of Love when visiting DiplomaTea earlier in the week and offered to help Everett in a similar way to when she stumbled on the speed-dating event, but this time, she knows in time to join in on the preparations. Her short stature and basically complete lack of strength means she has a lot of limitations in what she can do to help. But by george does she try.

At some point, an embarrassed Leslie calls to a passerby:]
Um, could you help me with this?

[Leslie picked up some of the paper decorations and tried to put them up by standing on a chair, but even then she juuuust can't reach. There are a couple of boxes nearby that she might have brought with the intention of making a big pile of boxes on top of the chair to climb up high enough, but she fortunately had enough sense to not make that dangerous tower.]

II. Festival of Love

a. Flower Power

[As during Faiolleach, Leslie can be found out around the Haven with a basket of flowers from DiplomaTea to advertise the festival. She will be approaching people she finds in the general area.]

DiplomaTea is now hosting the Festival of Love! They have a bake sale with delicious treats, an auction of magical devices, Inkchanted tattoos, a magic show, and a...kissing booth? [She doesn't really know any details about the last one. She will offer the person she is advertising to one of Everett's garden's flowers.] All of the money raised in the event will go to helping the refugees and others in need. Please come to take a look!

[She may make a some slightly wider loops looking for people she knows to give muffins to in case they don't come to DiplomaTea, as mentioned in Part 0.]

b. Bake Sale

[Leslie has been part-timing at Inkspell and is putting her pocket change to good use buying some sweets. Sure, she can get sweets in many places, but this is for a good cause.

Unfortunately, one of the sweets that catches her eye is a particular kind of cupcake. You might find her sitting in the café as she eats it. If you approach her, she will look up and say:]


Goodbye.

[And immediately look extremely confused.]

c. A Word From Our Sponsor

[Leslie loves sweets. She never had them before about a month ago, so it's still very fresh and new. Unfortunately, thanks to usually getting sweets portioned out for her by other people, she doesn't know that it's a bad idea to have too many sweets at once. When she gets a hold of an extra large mug of cinnamon cocoa (she loves hot chocolate), depending on when you find her, you may find her in one of two conditions.]

i. Hubris

[You've come across Leslie having just recently obtained her large chocolate delight. This thing is dangerously large for an adult and Leslie has a significantly smaller volume to put this in. It may be best to convince Leslie to share her drink.]

ii. Regret

[You've come across Leslie after she's had just too many sweets -- whether she wasn't stopped from her hot chocolate hubris, or she just managed to collect too many sweets for herself today from the bake sale and well-meaning gifts. At least, you see the mug and some unfinished sweets. It may be harder to see Leslie, who is curled up against the wall, sitting on the floor, as she nurses her first sweets-caused stomachache. At the point, the best you can do is comfort her or give her advice regarding this hard-earned lesson.]

[If no one picks II.c.ii. and at least one person is able to stop her in II.c.i., she may end up avoiding the stomachache...for now.]

III. Cleanup

[Leslie is determined to help clean up. She's learned from setup that she's not going to be able to manage to take down the high decorations, so she has taken a broom and is sweeping up the floors. But it's been a long, busy day for Leslie, who is now definitely finding out yet another effect of sweets: the sugar crash. She is clearly nodding off. She is initially insistent that she is fine to finish up, but she's fading fast.

Anyone who tries to separate her from the broom will get a grumpy:]
No, I can do it.

[People who are in the way of her sweeping will get a polite "excuse me," but it will be a challenge to hear it through a big yawn.]

IV. Wildcard

[Leslie is here to make friends. You can pitch an idea to me by PM or on plurk at yobousiesho. She does not need an Inkchanted charm tattoo. Her charm is too powerful already.]

[ Why eye the door when you could be eyeing all the people around. Some of them are quite fetching. ]

'The Needy.'

[ Yes, he has to repeat that while getting closer. Is he on crutches for something that happened recently, or is he someone that just got hoofed legs? It's hard to tell, though he certainly looks pretty okay otherwise. The winter coat's looking healthy for the faun, and by this point you couldn't tell that his hands were mangled just a few weeks ago. ]

If you can say who 'the needy' are, and get it right, I'll put more in. Get it wrong... You pay for the kiss.

[ Judar. Well, it's a simple enough bet. He was looking for reasons to kiss people anyway. ]
petcromancer: (sunlight)

[personal profile] petcromancer 2020-02-15 04:49 am (UTC)(link)
[Hector abandons his door watch for the moment and raises an eye at the other faun. He's striking. Either way the bet goes, Hector won't mind, though he doesn't have much coin to spare for charity.]

Hmmm. Are you one of them?

[With the hunger in his eyes as he assess the volunteers, the faun certainly seems in need of something.]
kuroi_taiyo: (24)

[personal profile] kuroi_taiyo 2020-02-15 05:04 am (UTC)(link)
[ After a long enough time without, maybe Hector will understand the way Judar sees everyone as a potential outlet for contact. Enough to be looking for excuses, but with enough self control to be putting things before that. The volunteers made for easy targets, but even the other guests wouldn't be 'safe' from some kind of advance. ]

Maybe. A number of people here could be. Though fauns could have a lot of needs.

[ But it's close, and it's enough to at least earn Judar paying the original amount. He's a sporting type of person, and can even provide hints. ]

You didn't follow the big things going on the beginning of this month?
petcromancer: (sunlight)

[personal profile] petcromancer 2020-02-15 05:22 am (UTC)(link)
[Hector shrugs his shoulders.]

No, I didn't dig into it. Tragedy is a constant, and I've been preoccupied with settling in to an entirely new world.

[Sheesh, Hector, your hermit tendencies are showing. Rein it in.

He nods at the donation jar.]


So you were a part of it. [He's not sure if it's something he should ask for details on. If it was bad enough to merit a charity event in the aftermath, it might not be a topic for casual conversation.

Besides, they are maybe? flirting? Hector is so bad at this.]


And now you're here to support the relief effort. Or is it to have your relief supported?

[ First things first. Trevor is JUST WALKING BY and has NO INTENTION OF PARTICIPATING IN THIS. This being... any of this festival. He's just here for free food and drink, ok. Like all these parties or whatever.

But when he catches sight of a familiar(??) face working this booth he just... sort of stops. And stares. Yeah. ]


Do you even know what needy you're supporting?

[ It's asked as he approaches Hector, a sucker/lolliop/whatever placed between his lips which he sucks on with a raised brow. Look, it was free. ]

[ Ah, well if someone was being a recluse while dealing with the shock of a new world, it wouldn't be the fairest thing to expect them to know what this is about. Though he thought someone would've filled in the poor guy on what this was all for. ]

Mm... Guess I'm here for some kind of relief.

[ Look, he'll put the 100 cunes into the jar, as he wasn't wrong, though still couldn't say why. He'll explain it after a bit, giving a small 'come here' gesture for Hector to help make up some of the distance between them for this kiss. Just to go a little easy on the guy with crutches. Don't worry, he'll make it good. Though... That's probably too extra for something meant to be a simple and quick kiss.

Ah well. They should've expected this, in a faun-run establishment. ]

[ Judar does make for an easy target, as he's shown an interest in some of the other sweets, including the hot cocoa. (Look, it was warm and he was determined to work through it on his own, or at least try. It's still three-quarters full.) It's not like the faun was going to hurry elsewhere, though, that's for sure.

But okay, his attention's on the cupcake, though it trails to the nails and there's a quirk of a smile that settles. ]


And if you're the kind of sweet I prefer?

[ Judar's not familiar with the cupcake's secrets, and could still be convinced. It's still an opportunity to target people back. Look at how his eyes match those red nails. ]

[Don't just take free food, you cheapskate. You're supposed to donate something.

Hector frowns at Trevor, who is calling him out for being ill-informed like a jerk.]


I don't know. The fae girl in the big hat said it's 'for a good cause'.

[And Hector is a follower, not a leader. What's he supposed to do when a charismatic supernatural creature tells him to do something? Not listen??]

[ Fae girl in a big hat... you know, that's not even the weirdest thing he's heard in his time here. Rolling the sucker around in his mouth, he pulls it out with a pop! and lets it tap against his lips as he lazily glances around. ]

You mean it wasn't the Cyclops you spoke to?

[ He's... kidding. There is no Cyclops. To his knowledge. ]

Might want to know what you're getting yourself into before you dive head first into anything.

[ SORT OF LIKE BACK HOME, RIGHT, HECTOR?? ]
petcromancer: (in trouble)

[personal profile] petcromancer 2020-02-15 06:02 am (UTC)(link)
[It's probably fiiiine. It's not like it involves a political situation that could affect Hector too, right?

He can do his research later. For now, he's got a volunteer duty to fulfill.]


Alright, stay there.

[He's supposed to stay in the booth, but this is extenuating circumstances. He's not going to make an injured man strain himself. He's a monster, but he's not a monster.

He steps around the booth and comes to stand in front of Judar. The only visible signs of his transformation so far are the nubs of horns peeking out of his hair, though from one who has gone through a similar process, Judar might see the awkward flopping of boots pulled over feet that no longer fill them the way they used to.]


Thank you for your donation.

[He leans in to press a kiss to Judar's lips.]

[ He'd recognize the signs better if Judar hadn't avoided shoes for a decade, until he'd shown up in this world. His leg-based changes weren't nearly so gradual, as it seemed was happening for this guy? Sizes and proper limb changes kept being saved for the actual full moons for Judar. Ah, but how nice that he managed to get him to come around instead. That makes this opportunity better.

Because he'll keep a finger up under the newer faun's chin, as if that'd entice him to stay there for a little longer. It's clear that he had little intention of keeping this chaste. In fact, he'll test to see how far Hector lets him take this, if it progresses into more than a closed-mouth kiss. ]

No, Cyclops aren't intelligent enough to converse with.

[Trevor's teasing goes over his head, so really, joke's on you, Belmont. Hector knows cyclopses from back home and they're all dumb as stumps.]

And shut up. This is nothing like that. This is for charity.

[He glares at the Belmont. He's helping. And Marie is nice, so it's fine? Would the 'right' thing to do have been to refuse to help the orphans or whatever they're supporting?]

Which, I might add, you're supposed to make donations for here.

[Don't just stand there...with your candy-covered lips...like some big handsome idiot miser.]

Kissing Booth

[Caren was still well dressed, but she had managed to make a new dress just for it. And while she wasn't wearing lipstick, she did manage to put on a mascara and have some lipstick on hand if anyone wanted her to wear it. Who gave it to her, she wasn't even sure.]

You can take a pass on this. I'm mostly here for the seat.

Bake Sale

[Well She didn't make cupcakes, but she did make biscotti- moch, almond, mocha almond, vanilla. Caren set them down carefully, and fussed a little with the plate, before glancing up.]

I think I made enough, if you want one. They're hard, by the way.

Auction

[She peered at the items. The golden item...ah. that was tempting.]

So what do you think about the ring?

A word

[Ah. She made a bad choice. She did a bad thing. She found herself sunk into a seat, holding onto the giant mug and unable to get up.

And she couldn't drink it either. Too full.]


Um...what am I to do about...

[This.]

Wildcard

Want to mix it up, do something else? That goes here! Got questions? Ping me on my plurk or discord!

[ Well that's what he's going to do. Even pop his sucker back into his mouth. So there. ]

Donations for what?

[ Best clarify. So, with a vague hand gesture. ]

What are you doing?
