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!]

You don't have to. [Kaidan glances towards Chekov, grinning, and flashes a stack of vouchers he's been using to fuel his night off.]

Starstrikers have me covered.

[candothat]

[Chekov looks suitably impressed.]

Then please disregard my offer. You were playing for the Starstrikers?

[bi_otic]

[A chuckles, a bit sheepishly]

I was, yeah. Just a couple games, but enough to get the prizes. [A demonstrative twitch of his foot shows that he's wearing the light up shoes.]

But, hey, if you still want to, I can give you something in exchange. Pretty sure I got some for restaurants and museums and things like that in here.

[candothat]

I see that you earned the most impressive prize. [A nod to the shoes. He's not even kidding, those shoes are pretty cool.]

I still want to, yes, and I have never refused a voucher for food. [He orders the current special--some kind of silvery, glittery, Starstriker-themed concoction with an unexpected kick.]

[bi_otic]

[He laughs, lifting up one foot to glance down at it] Yeah! They're pretty nice. Not very tactical...but nice. Reminds me of being a kid.

[Kaidan slips one of the vouchers across to Chekov and happily accepts his drink in return]

[candothat]

You won shoes as a child? [Kidding, kidding.] I'm certain they could be tactically advantageous in certain situations. I can't think of such situations, but that is no guarantee that they could not exist.

[He pockets the voucher with a thank you.]

What do you think of the drink?
