World Fair
In the week of lead-up to the fair, the whole of Union had been ablaze with excited chatter, industrious preparations, and quite a fair number of new faces. People from all over the known world had begun to trickle in with the announcement, some representatives and workers from each invited civilization, some excited young trainers and travelers, hopeful prizewinners and showboaters, cooks, warriors, clothing designers, and of course a wide variety of Pokemon. You couldn’t look anywhere (even a trash can) without finding somebody new, and every single person was absolutely thrilled to be there.
The World’s Fair, hopefully the first of many, sprawled out across the Entertainment District. Large swathes of the area had been cordoned off for the event, stalls and tables, booths and small shelters set out and erected over the course of the week. Local workers and travelers dug in, working in shifts to get everything together on time. Voices sang out around the grounds, work chants accompanied by the beat of hammers and nails, with every soul pouring their hearts into their tasks. A busy time, certainly, and one fueled by a desire for harmony, profit, and to start off the idea with a bang.
There were, of course, a few noticeable exceptions. The open invitation to Gigas that the Council had so warmly extended had been accepted in due time. Those who numbered themselves amongst that great city were distinguishable by their less than friendly countenances and penchant for taking notes, no doubt analyzing the city of their enemies. One likely familiar face made her appearance partway through the week, disappearing quickly into a tent and remaining indoors for the rest of the preparations.
Come opening day, people had already begun lining up at the entrance, awaiting admission. The queue stretched for blocks and blocks, a serpentine loop of people and Pokemon all eager for a chance to see what this fair was all about. Like everything else surrounding the event, there was a certain buzz to it. Chatter filled the line, questions and queries hanging on everyone’s lips. Did you see that robot? What’s that smell? Did you see that Maxime de la Puffette was planning on unveiling her fall lineup here? Oh! Oh! And there are three idol groups! Risette may even make a performance! and there was another rumor that buzzed through the line as well. Gigas accepted the invitation. And so did some of those people from the Archipelago…
Once inside the grounds proper, a dizzying array of sights, sounds and smells assailed every visitor’s senses. Music blared, machines clinked and clanked, food sizzled on grills, exotic spices wafted down the paths, unusual Pokemon let out cries of surprise and delight, and people ooh and ahhhed. Technological wonders stood out on stages, concerts presented a variety of music in every style imaginable, there were whole areas set aside for nothing but eating and fashion, while martial artists, Pokemon and brawlers duked it out in the various arenas. And above it all, airborne Pokemon soared and wheeled, banking and turning as their riders and egos clashed in a competition of acrobatics and skill. All of this could really only mean one thing, and even if by chance you were a Crustle living under a literal rock, you couldn’t miss it.
An event like nothing held since the Cataclysm, and something wholly unique had begun today, and for one week only. The First World’s Fair!
[OOC: This post is open to all players throughout the next week. Feel free to tag around, start your own top levels, and generally have fun during the fair. Some new and familiar faces will be tagging around as well, and may tag into your threads!]

[Naomi's eyes widen as she takes a spot besides Rin in skeeball. She's been running around playing games all day with her pokemon but barely had any tickets to show for it. Her tail swished to the side as she looked from the mass to Rin, her Azurill perched on her shoulder while Cubone stood by her side with her Oddish perched on his head.]
Are you a skeeball master?
no subject
Yeah! I guess I am! I mean, me and Cthulu won a bunch of them with Skeeball already. So I guess we're pretty good. Mother used to take me to play all the time back home.
[And she's cheating.]
no subject
[She looks at the game, picking up one of the balls.]
Okay Skeeball Masters! D'you have any tips?
no subject
[Rin grins, hands on hips, ready to watch.]
So, don't look at the ball, look at the hole...
no subject
[She sticks her tongue out, looking ahead at the 100 point hole and throws the ball. Unfortunately it might have been thrown a bit too hard, bouncing right out of the hole.]
Darn!
no subject
[Rin does so again, and hits it right on target...]
no subject
Okay!
[She picks up another ball, taking aim and throwing it. The ball doesn't hit the 100 point hole like she wanted, but it does bounce down into the 20 hole.]
I did it!
