Cherry Blossom Festival (May 4-6)

Who: EVERYONE
Where: Central Park (Capricorn Ward)
Summary: Open - Post-event log for everyone!
Warnings: Nothing

The battle was over, and the city was busy licking its wounds and trying to repair for the next few days. Amidst all of this commotion, however, Golden Week continued and with it, the weekend and next Monday was a day off to enjoy the Cherry Blossoms. And despite the fighting that had been going on, Hinito-Ri continued to adapt, and enjoy what little time that they could.

After all, fighting for such beauty did make you a lot more appreciative of it.



Tens of thousands of trees dotted the park's landscape, but it was the Cherry trees that were the stars of the weekend, the pink petals creating a heavenly smell only enhanced by the small stalls that were busy selling hot yakitori (grilled chicken on sticks), takoyaki (octopus balls on sticks), shioyaki (Salty grilled sea bream on sticks ) and kakigori (Shaved ice with syrup, not on a stick).

The prime picnic places were being taken and families grouped together to eat homemade lunches and bento, but there were still many spots and trees to go under should you wish to do so with friends. Townsmen would nod towards you, knowing that you had helped last week, young couples walked hand in hand, and many young students sat under the trees, reading books or playing games.

In the central area, Shinto monks had set up a O-Mikuji area, where you could-- for a mere 10 yen-- hope that questions on love, family or fortune would befall you favorably.

The danger had passed for now. Life continued to flourish.

Enjoy it well.

Are you done with picking fights?

Yes. [A small, almost awkward pause.] I apologise, I don't normally act like that.

Were you under the influence of the, ah... strange supernatural things that were happening?
capitalbackup: (Right...)

Re: OTA

Correct. I wasn't unaffected as I originally thought. [It's disgraceful and humiliating.

And troubling.

Would it interest you to know I am attempting to find the necessary people to overcome the strange effects of those events, if they happen in the future?

[Hm.]

I'm interested. How will you plan to overcome them?

Through scientific research and experimentation.

I can offer my knowledge and skills. However, my subordinate would be more valuable for scientific research.

[Said subordinate would happen to be...Fumi.]

...Then I have no other objections or comments.
