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.

[Gently, Joker nudges Ed along so that they can keep walking along the bridge. They're not the only ones attending the festival; who knows who else will come along if they dally?]

When ya say people ya would avoid, do ya mean because they're jerks or yer havin' a blood feud with 'em or somethin' like that?

It, ah... pays ta ask with how many different folks end up here.

[Ed doesn't seem to mind the nudge, moving along easily. He didn't want another repeat of earlier so not crowding the bridge was probably a good idea.]

I mean one of them literally killed me back home.

[Blunt? A bit. Al's insistence that he hadn't forgiven Envy still played over in his head every time he thought about it.]

[personal profile] pipers_son 2017-07-29 09:11 pm (UTC)(link)
Ah.

[Well, that's sure a thing. Then again, Joker is in the same position, although he's been lucky enough to not have to deal with his killer yet.]

Yer brother know that?

[Lucky him, when he figures out that Al lives with Envy he's going to have way more questions than he does now.]

He was there when it happened, saw the whole thing... Al's the one that brought me back, actually.

[He's not holding a grudge, just baffled more than anything.]

....Huh.

[Yeah, this is a mystery to him, too, and he leans over one of the rope railings a bit to look down below.]

Ask him about it?
alltoblame: (fma018_lavaliere)

[personal profile] alltoblame 2017-08-01 03:52 am (UTC)(link)
I tried.

[It basically just resulted him in feeling like shit for even trying to bring it up. But Elrics don't talk about feelings, so we're going to pretend like that never happened.]

He just said he hasn't forgiven him... wouldn't even explain.
pipers_son: (sillica) (If I buy you $300 worth of Popeyes)

[personal profile] pipers_son 2017-08-03 07:38 pm (UTC)(link)
Huh.... Suppose it must be a tricky thing ta explain.

[Which. Considering attempted murder is involved, he guesses that's just par for the course. Joker pauses to peer up into a tree, just to make sure his wayward bat isn't in it.]

Ya talk with the guy in question?
alltoblame: (fma112_lavaliere)

[personal profile] alltoblame 2017-08-03 09:24 pm (UTC)(link)
I guess.

[A pause at the next question.]

The guy who murdered me? Not... really. He messaged me shortly after I arrived demanding some information, but I didn't give it to him. Not sure why he cares so much anyway.

[personal profile] pipers_son 2017-08-05 04:40 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, give it a try.

[Joker shrugs casually, reaching up to make sure that his Larvesta is back in his shirt properly- it'd been sliding down.]

Maybe there's somethin' yer brother sees that ya haven't yet, and the only way ta figure that out is ta approach him yerself. Ah, just make sure that it doesn't look like yer lookin' for a fight.
