Autumn Festival (OPEN)

[stringmods]

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.

Well, he may not have grabbed the game supervisor's attention, but one old surely man was as good as another, right? Kotetsu had been watching a few passersby try their luck at this game, but it wasn't until he recognized the guy from the nightclub that his liquid courage (Or, more appropriately, his belligerence) brought him closer.

"No, no, you're doin' it all wrong!"

Whoa! And he fumbles the net he's got right now and it drops right in the drink. "Aw, nuts."

He turns. Oh, it's the guy who thinks he's somehow an old dude despite the fact he hasn't got any white hair, or something. "What do you mean I'm doing it wrong?"

sorry for the wait

What did he mean? Pshaw, Kotetsu would totally show him what he meant! Years of practice would finally pay off in one super cool moment when he showed this guy how to catch a tiny, twenty-cent goldfish. It may have been stupid, but the former Hero took any chance he got to spread his wealth of knowledge around, especially since they were few and far between.

"There's a technique to this. You can't just grab at any fish--Hey!" he called to the man running the booth to get his attention. "Gimme one of those nets!" Squatting down beside the blond, he pointed to the fish in the tank. "The trick is to grab one of the smaller ones. You'll never get the big ones, the nets aren't strong enough. Watch..."

Dipping his net into the water, he held it closer to the water's surface so there would be less resistance. When a suitably-sized goldfish drifted past, he brought up the net quickly, but carefully. It stayed right where it should have, but in a blink the paper split and the fish fell back into the water.

"Ah--?!"

No worries. :V

He stares, an eyebrow raised. "Well I for one certainly feel enlightened," he drawls ironically.
