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 ))

What you CAN be sure of is that it stopped when the people around them started applauding. Very abruptly.]
Er. We should go.
no subject
Oh. Uh... yeah.
[And she takes her hand and starts to head for home. And once they're there...]
Sorry I made you leave early. I know you probably wanted to dance some more. Can I make it up to you?
no subject
We could dance some more in here.
Not that glacier kind of dancing, something that's good for just two people.
[She clicked on the radio and fiddled with the dial until something a bit more mellow came on.]
no subject
[Chie smiles as the music starts, eagerly slipping her hands around Morgiana's waist and swaying with the beat.]
And then I'm gonna give you your thank you present for literally kicking ghost butt for me all week.
no subject
I get a thank you present?
no subject
[Chie smiles just a little mischievously as the two of them dance together.]
no subject
[Food seemed like a good guess with Chie. Plus now she was dying to know what it was.]
no subject
[Chie pauses for a moment, looking thoughtful.]
No, it's not, but that would have been a really good idea too.
no subject
no subject
[Chie laughs a little, leaning forward to kiss Morgiana as the song ends.]
That wasn't it either, though. Go sit down and close your eyes and I'll show you.
no subject
no subject
[Chie heads into the other room, coming back after about a minute. There's the noise of wet hands rubbing together, and then some light pressure on Morgiana's soles. Chie's given her foot massages before now and then, but this time she sprang for some fancy massage oils - the same kind Yukiko's family uses at the Amagi Inn for massage treatments at the spa.]
Surprise.
no subject
[Oh that is nice. And it smelled of...hmm...eucalyptus, maybe? Something herbal. After a few seconds, Morgiana let her head lean back into the couch and her eyelids droop.]
no subject
[Yup, Chie had this planned ever since Morgiana had volunteered to stay at home and protect her from ghosts. She rolls her thumbs around her girlfriend's soles, trying to feel out the sore spots.]
no subject
[It's a bit like massaging leather. Because shoes are for wimps.]
no subject
Good. I'm glad.
[The oil should help at least a little to impart some softness, even if temporary. Chie pauses for a moment to splash some more on her hands before going back to it, moving up the middle of her soles and toward her toes, rolling each one between her fingers.]
Thanks for being there for me this week, Morgiana. It really meant a lot to me.
no subject
[A giggle, when she goes for the toes.]
Of course I'd be there. Where else could I be when you were in trouble?
no subject
[Chie can't help but laugh too. She hadn't expected Morgiana to be ticklish. Smiling up at her, she rubs her toes just a little more firmly.]
You could've gone out and enjoyed yourself more. But you stayed here with me. You're always so thoughtful.
[Suddenly, the blush on her face deepens just a little more as he smile grows.]
So as scared as I was all week... it's been like falling in love with you all over again.
no subject
[Does she mean the tickling, or staying close to her all week? It's not clear. But it clearly meant a lot to Chie, and that was okay.
She blushed at "falling in love with you all over again", and held out both arms.]
Come here.
no subject
[Chie winks, fluttering her fingers over the tips of Morgiana's toes. Just for a moment, though, because it is clearly cuddle time.]
Hehe... love you.
[Getting up from her spot on the floor, she eagerly joins her girlfriend on the couch, settling into her arms.]
