Soulfasting Mingle
Who: EVERYONE
What: Soul Fast
When: During Soul Fast
Where: All over Ninetails Vale and in people's houses, etc.
Summary: The Celebrations of Soul Fast Begin!
It's that time of year again, and all throughout Union and in particular the Ninetales Vale, celebrations are beginning. A festival celebrating the passage of another year, of remembering and honoring the dead, and of placating particularly violent spirits has begun. Soulfasting, an old Union tradition, is one of the most popular holidays celebrated, with the Ninetales Vale being overrun with people of all ages.
Children scamper through the streets of the Vale in masks and costumes, begging for candy, while surly teenagers do the same and occasionally play pranks, and adults celebrate in a variety of fashions. Elaborate, highly fashionable costumes are all the rage, and even the nobility slips out into the Vale for a bit of fun. It's not exactly a popular destination most of the year, given the high concentrations of Dark and Ghost-types but during the festival it's most definitely in vogue and teeming with people all happy to help revitalize the area for a week.
The sounds of music drift through the air, celebratory tunes, dirges, jigs, and tunes for all ages. From the Kurain school on it's hill overlooking most of the Vale, a pipe organ solemnly plays out traditional tunes, and is surprisingly cheery for a ghost school. Across the neighborhood on another hill, Hikawa Shrine has it's doors wide open to welcome visitors, with decorations of all sorts set out.
Games are set up at both locations, including Apple Bobbing, Ducklett Pond raffles, and Pin the Scroll on the Spiritomb, though there are others set up all over the Vale's plazas. Skeeball, Target Shooting, Bell-and-Hammer games, and perhaps most strangely a “Whack-the-Diglett” that's been possessed by one of the local ghosts to give the little wooden Digletts faces all hideously angry ones. Eating contests, Pokemon Battle Circles, a Haunted House (with real ghosts!) and dozens and dozens of fortune telling stands all further add to a carnival atmosphere that even the dead can enjoy!
Lanterns and faux Spinarak webs hang from every lamppost and awning, and food stalls line the streets as vendors ply their wares. Food from all over is available, and it all seems to come together around a central square between the two hills. A stage has been set up, with musicians from all over the known world called in to show their stuff. There are dance tunes from Caldera, Union Pop and Jazz songs at work, setting crowds on fire. Sanctuary has sent a full orchestra to play various classical pieces, while Citadel's famous woodwinds and tribal drums surprise and delight. And towards the end of the day, a band from Glacier comes on stage. Their music starts out slow and ambient, but after a few sets they set up electric guitars and the gloves come off. A folk metal concert, complete with an armored warrior-woman doing the vocals and several of the soldiers from the battle weeks prior (some still bandaged) backing her up. It might be a bit shocking, but some of the youth are definitely getting into it...
And then night falls, and the party atmosphere becomes a little quieter. Plays, family meals, Ghost-story tellings, and more subdued activities become the norm though there's still a contingent of rowdies at the heart of the celebration. It's then that the ghosts really come out to play, slipping through walls to greet relatives or tease revelers. For the most part they seem friendly but not always. As usual, some specters of ill-repute have slipped in among the friendly ones, and they're making trouble. Good thing you have a Warp Band to call an exorcist, right?
((OOC: This is a general mingle log, feel free to put up your own top levels and tag around! Welcome to Soulfasting, everyone! We hope you enjoy =D ))

[Yukiko hugged Fuuka close and bent to kiss her quickly on the forehead. It'd been a couple of days since they'd been able to really hang out, and that meant she was a little starved for attention.]
I'm glad to see you! Sorry I've been so busy. But Chie is...kind of a scaredy-Meowth about ghosts and I had to make sure she was holding up okay. It's...kinda taxing. Morgiana's got her now though.
How're you?
no subject
It's okay, I've been rather busy myself. I know I've been talking to my parents as of late but things have been going rather well though!
[Somewhat but she'll keep her mouth shut in favor of the date]
But I hope that Chie is going to be okay though! I don't blame her, ghosts can be pretty scary!
[...Totally not going to mention she's scared of them too. Nope, not at all! What are you talking about?]
no subject
Chie will be fine. Just like your parents. Today we're here to have just with us, and nobody else.
[And then she'll lean down and kiss Fuuka's lips this time, a brief contact but still...]
Are you ready?
no subject
Of course, I'm ready whenever you are! We haven't seen each other in a while, we definitely deserve this!
no subject
[Nuzzling closer for a moment she revels in it and turns away towards the entrance.]
And with all this stuff done we'll have more time to spend together. It'll be nice! But for now let's get into the festival, right? What do you think you wanna do first? I mean, it's just soulfasting but still.
no subject
How about we do some apple bobbing? Would you want to do that? It seems like I haven't done that in a long time!
[The last thing she done it was when she was a kid!]
But if you want to do something else, I'm fine with that too!
no subject
[Because Chie was a total chickenbutt.]
I think it's up at the Kurain manor, on the western hill. Not too far, so lets hurry!
no subject
[And with that, off she went straight to the manor! Of course, she was trying her best to keep her own pace so she won't manage to overexert herself.
Even then, she felt guilty for slowing Yukiko and their Pokemon down]
no subject
Fuuka, you know...if you're having trouble? Then I can refresh you. But we're not in any hurry.
[She does understand you aren't wholly well, you know.]
no subject
I know but I still don't want to slow you down! And especially when there's a festival going on and there’s so many things to try out!
no subject
Well, I'd rather take it slow, Fuuka. More time with you is always better.
[A beat.]
And hey, have you ever been sledding before?
no subject
Goodness, you really know how to make me feel wanted don't you?
But no, I haven't! Do you want to give it a try?
no subject
[Gently elbowing Fuuka, she went on.]
And I would. Chie and I talked about it, and taking you and Morgiana to Glacier or something for sledding on my birthday. December 8th, so...a month from now.
no subject
Oh, then that sounds perfect! I don't see why we can't go! Although, I have to admit, the last I went it was really cold! But I still think that would be a good place for a date if that’s what you’re saying!
no subject
[Don't keep giggling dear...you'll start her too.]
no subject
But now this makes me want to plan out my birthday! Because you know what? My birthday isn't too far away from yours! It's on the 22nd!
no subject
[Yukiko stop laughing a second because this is important!]
no subject
[...Wait, that would mean Fuuka would need to get a really impressive present for Yukiko wouldn't she?
Well then, that was going to a problem wasn't it?]
no subject
[That doesn't mean anything of the sort!]
We'll definitely have to have a party, yes. And spend Salvation together too, if we can. That'll be my first year anniversary as a trainer.
no subject
But of course, we can do that too! It'll be about 6 months since I became trainer! To think, it's already been that long since then! Time sure flies!
no subject
[By now they hit the steps to the Kurain manor, and apple bobbing.]
And goodness, it has been six months since we met hasn't it?
no subject
Yes, it really has! It's pretty amazing that we've already known each other for that long! Not to mention that we've been together for a few months now. It does make really wonder about a lot things...
no subject
[Not that Yukiko minds serious.]
no subject
[She giggled]
Because during my 6 months as a trainer, so many things has happened! Such as a girlfriend or exploring so many new things in the Union! It's just that I have to wonder if I might have to talk to my parents sooner or later...
no subject
[She'd almost forgotten.]
If you need a witness about how wonderful you are, I'll do it!
