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 ))

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!
no subject
[Hmmm...]
But I've been thinking about talking to someone named um...Ami? To help me with engineering?
no subject
[She didn't know Ami.]
If you think she can help, that's lovely. You're already pretty talented though, I mean, that stone you made worked like a charm.
no subject
[With that, she nervous chuckled]
Well, I'm not so sure? But I'm glad that it worked somehow! I really was worried if it might not work or not so...but I tried my best on it! Or at least I hoped so!
no subject
[She'll elbow you, cutie.]
If you ever want to make more...I can help you find uses for them. A lot of other trainers need evolution items like that.
no subject
[Because to think their daughter was out fighting against a god?? That would be something she might probably wouldn't want to talk about just yet...]
Then I don't see why not! Who knows, maybe I should open a store just on making evolution items!
no subject
[Sure'y they'd seen it on the news...]
But you know, you could do that. Actually! We could work together. Since I go out into the wilds and gather materials for those sorts of things, and plants, we could open a business.
no subject
[The last thing she wants is to get Yukiko in trouble. And especially with her own parents but she'll keep that part to herself for now]
...You really think so? You think we can really do that? Wouldn't it take a lot of your time though?
no subject
No? Not at all, and even if it did, it's time spent with you. Not to mention it's potentially profitable for both of us.
