🌸Little Ladies' Day🌸





🌸Tea Time🌸



After all the fussing and effort put into decorating Sylvain's ballroom, Tataru and her "assistants" have transformed the area into one worthy of inviting princesses to high tea. Tables have been set up throughout the ballroom, flowers and other decorations adorning the tables and walls. Little Ladies are invited to sit where they please to be served while live music plays. When it comes to tasty treats and drinks (both alcoholic and not), there's a special menu to choose from, along with your standard high tea fair of scones, tea sandwiches, petit fours and of course, tea. Loyal Seneschals are at the beck and call of their Ladies, whether they're focused on one particular individual or a group.

Socializing is encouraged and if Ladies tire of sitting at the tables to snack and sip away at their tea, they're encouraged to relax and recline in the Tête-à-Tête sofas set up in another area of the room, either with another fellow Lady or a Seneschal who's willing to charm them or show off their listening skills. There is, of course, space free for those who wish to use the ballroom as it was intended to be - for dancing - and with the lively music filling the room why not take the opportunity to? It's all in good fun, after all.

🌸Lights! Camera! Action!🌸


Prompto finally has his camera working again and Tataru's decided it would be a great idea for him to participate as a photographer and get new clients for his photography business! One of the activities of Little Ladies' Day back in Eorzea is Ladies posing in front of backdrops that are set up around the city-states. To emulate this exciting experience, various backdrops have been set up outside in the yard for Little Ladies to have their photographs taken. The main attraction? A chocobo drawn carriage for that special princess aesthetic. Yeah...

There is also a dressing room area for Ladies to get dressed up or borrow a few donated outfits for the event (from local shops), if they were unable to get their own gear to wear, if they so wish to do so. The room itself that contains said outfits has been turned into a makeshift powder room with a mirror and vanity space for touch ups. Every Little Lady ought to look their best, after all.

🌸Adorable Adoption🌸


Hector has volunteered to bring a few well-behaved fuzzy friends along (cats and dogs) for Little Ladies to play with and pet. All the animals will be up for adoption, and would make good Familiars for Witches who might need one in their lives. His makeshift petting zoo is set up in a segregated area of the yard, to make sure no animals go missing. Everyone who is an animal lover is encouraged to play, pet and love on the animals that have been brought along. If you do wish to adopt one, you'll have to be up to Hector's standards however. They deserve to go to good homes, after all!

🌸Notes🌸


What does it mean to be a Loyal Seneschal or Little Lady?: The role of Seneschal is quite fluid; ultimately it hinges on making sure no Lady goes without a smile on their face during their special day. Whether that's through serving them, entertaining them, being a companion or maybe going home with them to help them do a few chores around their house...it's seriously up to you! Get creative! If you're a Little Lady all that means is that you're a woman and it's Your Day to be Appreciated. Own it. (And no, don't even think about trying to be a Seneschal if you're a Lady - Tataru will hunt you down.)
How will my character find out about the event?: If your character didn't see Tataru's post about it on the network for whatever reason, she's also been sticking flyers up around the city for it. Tataru's quite the busybody so if you need to come up with an excuse for your character/their business to get involved feel free to have them either have heard of it from local businesses that are participating in the festivities, the flyers or even Tataru herself if they have CR of some kind.
Plotting Post: If you wish to see what people have plotted thus far or reach out to others for CR the plotting post is here!
I want to play around with Little Ladies' Day after the tea event!: Go for it! Tataru's been working hard hustling local businesses and Mirrorbound alike to participate in the Eorzean tradition. Making a compelling case to incorporate it into Eostre's festivities, she's managed to arrange a few collaborations for the Ladies of Aefenglom to enjoy. Feel free to play around with local cafes or shops that may have special menus or deals on made in the spirit of the holiday. Also go wild when it comes to playing up your Little Lady and Loyal Seneschal roles. It's All Women Are Queens Day, after all.

[Oh good, Tataru is pleased. Let's keep it that way.]

How could I not? It would be rude to turn down an invitation from a friend.

[Mira herself might feel out of place with being treated like a Little Lady with all the pampering but disappointing Tataru would just be horrible. But that does make her wonder-]

I do hope you have been relaxing as well. For this day is for you too.

It's been rather pleasant!

[But for some folks, needed to move around.]

But I think kittens are becoming a weakness; it was hard to walk away from them.

[I mean, she caught her before she and Emet could sneak away later so-]

I'm sure they will love you dearly. I would take a kitten but I may never hear the end of it. That and Breezy may get a little jealous.

No no, Breezy is my gaelkitten that came through the mirror. I don't think I could ever use her as my familiar.

[She worries about her kitty.]
inlikethebrume: (Listening)

[personal profile] inlikethebrume 2020-04-05 08:17 pm (UTC)(link)
They wear green vests and can fly but she can't here. She's still a bit upset about it.

[Poor kitty.]

I'm sure you'll see her and the Flood around the living area sometimes.
inlikethebrume: (Concentrate)

[personal profile] inlikethebrume 2020-04-09 08:30 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, I'm sorry. The Flood is a small rabbit-like creature that is all blue. It belongs to Vanitas and it and Breezy are usually around each other.

[Floods can be dangerous but thanks to this place, all it does is annoy people. And bug Emet due to all the negative.]
inlikethebrume: (Thoughtful)

[personal profile] inlikethebrume 2020-04-16 05:04 pm (UTC)(link)
It's not that busy. Enough to be quiet at times.

[But it's home and she likes it.]
