It's time for the solstice!

Who: Everyone attending the Azalea festival!

Where: Azalea town and surrounding woods

When: June 21st

Summary: Celebi's come out, so it's time to throw a party in its honor!

Log:

It's Midsummer! Traditional festivities in Azalea are all in full swing, and this year even bigger and better than ever, thanks to the influx of curious tourists and Legendary Seekers drawn by the rumors in hopes of catching a glimpse of the elusive Celebi. Everyone in Azalea is putting out their finest, and the whole town is decked out with flowers in vases and pots, colorful streamers, and bright awnings under which vendors hawk their wares.

The fun doesn't stop there, however. Those time disturbances that have been popping up all over the place? They've become at once more localized and more benign. Flowers open quickly and stay in bloom without fading, a blissful moment seems to stretch into eternity, somehow you've managed to sample the food of a dozen different booths and it still is barely mid-morning. It's like a perfect moment somehow drawn out, suspended in time to savor as long as possible. Those who have a particularly fun few minutes may even find them repeated a few times!

Which perhaps should be no surprise, given that Celebi itself has come out to play! If you're lucky and paying close attention, you might even catch a glimpse of it flitting about from one place to another throughout the town and the nearby forest. It certainly isn't shy, though it is moving quite quickly and doing anything but staying in one place. Anybody who might attempt to catch or challenge it to a battle isn’t going to get anywhere at all—and stubborn trainers might find themselves stuck in a time loop for a few hours. There's simply so much to see and do, after all! Strangely enough, if any of the Legend Seekers are around, Celebi never seems to be anywhere to be found.

Eventually, though, the long day will come to an end, and the festivities with it. By morning, all the hubbub will be gone, and Celebi with it. But not quite without a trace: anyone who came to Azalea Town to participate in the festival will find in their belongings a single fossil as a parting gift from the Time Travel Pokémon.

[Color her amused by this entire scene. The booth itself had been entertaining enough but add in this little spectacle?

Cissnei can't help but muffle a laugh against her hand, the young woman having been about to leave her spot near the booth--where she had been enjoying listening to all the crazy talk from this lot--when she'd spotted the Pangoro and Joker.]


I don't think you're going to get much of a choice in this.

[Leaning around the massive girth of his Pokemon- which is a feat considering he's still holding on and still leaving slight drag marks in the dirt- Joker gives an overdramatic sigh.]

It's my money, and I won't get a choice! Can ya believe kids these days? She was so much cuter when she was a wee thing. And easier ta hold back from bad decisions.

They really are just unruly anymore.

[Cissnei can't stop grinning now, tucking her arms behind her back as Tseng settles on her shoulder now watching the entire scene with a confused amusement.]

Sometimes you just have to grin and bear it.

Ya mean my wallet has ta bear it.

[Speaking of bears, Blanca finally stops at the stall, cheerfully browsing all the pamphlets, and Joker slumps against her back with a sigh.]

Unbelievable. So, ya interesting in their little newsletter too?

[Cissnei can't help but grin, reaching up to show the lapel of her jacket where her official membership pin is.]

Oh I already joined. How could I resist? [It's said rather impishly as Tseng let's out a soft huff.] It has the potential to be very..educational.
pipers_son: (leyline) (I would never do this in real life.)

[personal profile] pipers_son 2017-06-29 10:29 pm (UTC)(link)
Charmin'. So then ya would know better than me if it costs too much, right?
notmyrealname: (☀15)

[personal profile] notmyrealname 2017-07-01 05:50 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh it definitely costs way too much for what they're advertising. I figured if there was going to be a group of people that found all the rumors I could dig through about Legendaries, it would be them. Cuts down on my work a bit.
pipers_son: (I'm convinced that I'm the main)

[personal profile] pipers_son 2017-07-02 03:27 am (UTC)(link)
Ooh? [Curious, he raises an eyebrow up.] So ya have an interest in those sorts of things, then?
notmyrealname: (Default)

[personal profile] notmyrealname 2017-07-02 04:15 pm (UTC)(link)
[She shrugs, looking thoughtful.]

A bit. They're rather intriguing. Such powerful beings that, in some cases, are as small as Celebi and others as large as the biggest buildings imaginable. I can't help but want to know more about the creatures that essentially shape the world.
pipers_son: (leyline) ("Five things that make you perfect. Go.")

[personal profile] pipers_son 2017-07-03 08:58 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, you'll probably run inta one sooner or later- hell, that's why there's all this lot here, right?

[He jerks his head in the direction of the booth that his pokemon is perusing.]

Because Celebi is supposed ta be around.
notmyrealname: (☀04)

[personal profile] notmyrealname 2017-07-04 01:57 pm (UTC)(link)
That's what I keep hearing. Apparently there have been sightings of it as well as strange things happening. Time going by faster than you think it does, people getting caught in time loops..

[Definitely something she wants to learn more about.]

I honestly would love to glimpse it but I doubt that will happen. So I might as well learn what I can.
pipers_son: (leyline) (I would never do this in real life.)

[personal profile] pipers_son 2017-07-09 08:03 pm (UTC)(link)
...Well, I mean, one time I ran inta two at the same particular instance, although that was nearly the end of the world, so don't sell yerself short just yet.
notmyrealname: (☀14)

[personal profile] notmyrealname 2017-07-10 10:51 pm (UTC)(link)
Nearly the end of the world? Are you being overly foreboding or did the world actually almost end here?
pipers_son: (part_b) (I just saw a stripper light her nipples)

[personal profile] pipers_son 2017-07-11 11:27 pm (UTC)(link)
Well. There was a giant whale and a giant lizard bein' forced ta fight it out, and we ruined the Elite Four's little retreat home, so....

I don't think it's too off the mark.
notmyrealname: (☀05)

[personal profile] notmyrealname 2017-07-12 01:56 am (UTC)(link)
[One of her eyebrows goes up.]

Two Legendaries?
pipers_son: (leyline) ("Five things that make you perfect. Go.")

[personal profile] pipers_son 2017-07-12 09:19 pm (UTC)(link)
Sure as I live and breathe. S'was a right pain, I'll tell ya...

Turned out alright in the end.

...I mean, for most of us, not the Elite Four.
