festival day!

[thespaceopera]

Who: EVERYONE
Broadcast: Up to you
Action: Everywhere in the Yadrolla system!
When: 5/30

[At last, the day has come: Festival Day! Once again, the Starstrikers have taken the trophy this year. But that doesn't mean members of other teams, or those who didn't play, can't celebrate with the rest of them!

There are parties everywhere. Ribbons, streamers, and confetti litter every major street in the system. (Remember what they say about glitter...) There is food on every block, and people cramming into shops to get in on the merch.

Don't forget about the reason for the festival-- the pet adoption drive! A large playground-type area has been set up on the Starstrikers' desert moon where people can play and interact with the lovable creatures needing new homes. Whether you're looking for companionship or just something to do, there's plenty to coo over! Every pet comes with an info card listing a fanciful name and a general description of their age and temperament. Maybe Sir Pringle the puppy or Marquess Mariana the fish can become your new best friend.

Sadly, the Fleet will be drifting in about a week... but feel free to party until then!]

[axi]

Agree to disagree.

[Kaname eats another piece of hers with a smile.]

Not really. We could walk around and see if anything catches our attention?

[this_loser]

I guess. [As long as she's aware, it's a jacket.]

An adventure! Sounds good to me. Maybe we can find somewhere less crowded.

[axi]

Mm, it's vest that we do.

[Yep, Kaname attempted a pun. She looks at him somewhat expectantly. Gotta address this before discussing other plans.]

[this_loser]

[His mouth pops open.]

Did you just ... pun at me?

[That was Iggy levels of punnery.]

Wow. You are a fleece of work.

[axi]

[By now she's finished her food, and his reply has her dissolving into giggles. Kaname rests her forehead on his shoulder to hide her reddening face.]

Sorry, sorry! I wanted to try one once.

[He should be able to feel her quiet laughter.]

[this_loser]

You don't need to apologize for a good pun.

[But he glad to see her happy. He wiggles his shoulder and points back to the vendor.]

Wanna grab some more? We can eat while we walk around.

[axi]

I wasn't sure it was any good. Puns aren't something I normally do.

[The wiggling has her lift her head. She grins at him and nods.]

You're buying again, mister athlete. [Kaname straightens from her leaning position.]

[this_loser]

Iggy would've been proud.

[He grabs for her hand and heads back toward the vendor.]

'Course I am. [Not sarcastic. He was planning on it.]

[axi]

I can ask for no higher praise.

[She smiles to herself, somehow amused at his attitude. Kaname squeezes his hand, tugging him back a little so they're walking side by side.]

Next time it's my turn.

[this_loser]

You really can't.

[But enough of that. He'll make himself sad if he thinks about Iggy too much.]

Sure. You don't have to, though.

[He raises two fingers to the kebab guy as they approach.]

[axi]

[The kebab guy snorts, and shakes his head in amusement as he goes to grab two more.

Kaname hums a little, obviously enjoying herself.]

But I want to. I'm not going to make you pay for everything.
