Autumn Festival (OPEN)

Who: EVERYONE
Where: Virgo Ward
Summary: Autumn Festival Log! You're all invited!
Warnings: MELONS
Ahh Autumn. The time for harvest, and the normal national holiday that falls on the 24th and 25th. Demons? Angels? Magic? Well nothing's been put on pause, but even the Anoli need to relax once in a while...

With that free time, what's a newcomer like you to do?

Well Hinoto-Ri has much to offer! As they seem to be the only standing city in...well, anywhere, they've tried to merge and adapt as many festivals around the world as they can.

Ergo this Fall festival is a mixture of everything the world could offer. Corn on the cob, Pumpkins, Yaki Imo (Oven-Roasted Sweet Potatoes), Ramen stands, Falafel, caramelized apples...

A giant dragon is tied down in the middle of the waters. At night, you can see a few pixies hover close to it, keeping other monsters at bay. The streets have been decorated as well.

But most importantly, the upper Virgo Ward has been turned in a giant festival area...even more so than usual! Now the millions of stalls don't just try to sell things to you, they sell things to you thematically with this fall! Giant pumpkins and fresh produce made in Libra and Capricorn..did you know that Capicorn has an amazing giant apple orchid, protected by the office of Wands and Swords? Try out some free samples! One taste is enough to convince you that having Persona to irrigate the fields ass a crispness to the fruit..right? Winter outfits...hats are in this year! Listen to some of the new music groups, and get pumped for the upcoming movies!

There is giant mooncake in the middle of all the tents and stalls. Don't worry about the money! Everything's free today! It is a time for sharing and family and...

...being thankful for what you have. No matter how small it might be.

For a city of survivors, Hinoto-Ri is certainly trying to have a good time.

You should join them.

"It's kind of disorienting, isn't it?"

Just going to butt into your conversation as if it was normal, yeah.

"Back home, my city went from being a normal place after school to suddenly coming under monster attack. I guess it just happens everywhere, huh?"

It takes a moment for that comment to elicit a response. For the first time, Mahiro feels as if he's found someone who truly understands his situation.

"A few months ago, I never would have said this, but... you're right."

He certainly wasn't going to push while the guy took some time to process; lord knows Daichi had plenty of moments of speechlessness.

"You too, huh? You never really realize it until it happens, but your whole world can change just like that--!" He grinned, snapping his fingers for emphasis on the last word.

"It makes you appreciate the few times when things start looking a little normal again." Although he has no doubt that he has gotten through all of his experiences with his definition of 'normal' a little altered.

"I didn't introduce myself, did I? Mahiro Yasaka."

"Yeah-- what I wouldn't give to actually go back to school like a normal day again..!"

Yeah that sure was something he never thought he'd say. He chuckled awkwardly, before offering his hand in greeting. "I'm Daichi Shijima. Nice to meet you."
