GHOST TRICK PART ONE: Festival Log!

Who: Everyone!
Where: Either Ecruteak City or Lavender Town; please mark your toplevel comments accordingly!
When: August 13th-15th
Summary: Celebrate O-bon at a festival near you! For details, see the infopost.
Rating: Will vary from thread to thread. Warn for common triggers if something comes up.
Log:

The streets are lined with NPC-run stalls for food, games, and the assorted tchotchkes of every summer festival you’ve ever seen in your animes! There’s Goldeen Scoop, heaping cones of Swirlix Candy, Test Your STRENGTH (there are two different machines for people and Pokémon; HM04 not required); basically, if you can think of it, it’s there. There will also be a yukata rental stall if you want to go full hog on the cultural side of things. Ecruteak boasts a small stage where the Kimono Girls give a short performance once every two hours; the festivities in Lavender Town are a little quieter, but they also have Haunter-shaped ice cream treats. When you lick them, they Lick you!

On the last evening (August 15th) of the festival in either location, there will be a large bonfire and traditional bon-odori dance in which everyone is welcome to participate. In Lavender Town only, they also set paper lamps afloat in the water past the cliffs.

The closer you get to midnight on the last night of the festival, the more ghosts pop up.

Again, please say which city your character's in and note what dates/times they're there in the header of or within your top--level comment to avoid confusion. Play nice and have fun!

[Guess who wasn't the only one who was jealous? As she saw the performance, all Mabel could do was just stare in awe and wonder! Although, when she saw another girl nearby who also shared the same passion as she did, she simply walked right up to Minako!]

I know right? That's just so not fair! If only there was some way we could become one and join them somehow!

[ "If only there was some way..." Minako's eyes widen in realization, and she flashes Mabel a large grin that outright says she has an (absolutely terrible) idea. ]

Maybe there is a way! You think they have extra costumes backstage?

[ Not saying that her plan is to sneak backstage, disguise as a Kimono Girl, and try to blend in with them on stage, buuuut that is exactly her plan. ]

[As she saw the how Minako's eyes widen, she quickly knew where this was going to go! After all, she wasn't the only one who wore a grin as equal to her new found friend anyway!]

I don't know, why don't we check it out? I'm sure there's got to be some extras and I'm sure they totally don't mind us hanging out with them too!

[Was this going to go horribly wrong? Of course it was and it was going to be awesome!!]
outloving: (excited ♀ omg eeee)

[personal profile] outloving 2016-08-16 04:41 am (UTC)(link)
I like the way you think! Come on!

[ Jumping onto her feet, Minako gestures for Mabel to follow, creeping her way past the crowd gathered to watch the performance to where the back of the stage is. Once the two girls have finally arrived at their location, she kneels down to Mabel's eye level, flashing her a cheeky grin. ]

So, from this point on, we'll have to be sneaky...don't worry, though, I've done this numerous times! Minako-senpai will show you the ropes!

[As they made their way backstage, she made sure to be quiet. With the performance going on, who knows if somebody might walk over there and see what they were doing!

Placing a finger on her lips, she was determined to be as quiet as a ninja!!]


Oh really? Then please do show me the way, I can't wait to see what you can do! [While Mabel had sneaked into many buildings in the past, she was a little curious to see what Minako could do!]

[ ...This kid is pretty adorable, Minako can't help but think, and she's never really been one for children; even people like Chibiusa and Chibi Chibi took a while to grow on her, but she finds herself immediately fond of Mabel, especially since she's willing to do this with her and even inflate her ego. This would be a lot easier if she had her disguise pen with her, but because Mabel's cheering her on, Minako's all the more determined to do her best. ]

Then, here we go! Stealth mode, activated.

[ She returns the gesture Mabel gave, pressing a finger against her lips, and creeps backstage, her steps quiet and gradual, as she looks around for any security members backstage. So far, the coast is clear, so she turns around to face Mabel again and whispers as low as she can: ]

Keep an eye out for the costume room, okay?

[So far so good, she thought to herself! This didn't seem any different from the time she had to sneak into the Mystery Shack all those months ago! Of course, she was lucky that this wasn't pretty difficult. It was pretty hard to top having the CIA going after your butt!

But each step that she took, she kept her eyes on whatever costume she could find. With a small pout, she decided to lean in closer and whispered toward her fellow friend]


You don't think they kept them in some kind of super secret room do you? Otherwise, that would be pretty mean of them! They can't do that to us!

[And if she knew anything from her adventures in Gravity Falls, nothing was quite as easy as they seemed! They always put the super amazing stuff in some kind of safe! ...Which wasn't fair at all.]
outloving: (shock ♀ eeeeeh?!)

[personal profile] outloving 2016-08-18 12:55 am (UTC)(link)
Eeeeeh?!

[ Oh, that was a tad louder than she was intending it to be. Minako quickly hushes herself and glances around to make sure that no one heard that. The Kimono Girls are still performing onstage, and she doesn't hear any footsteps approaching them, so they're still undetected for now. She sighs in relief before deciding to answer Mabel's question. ]

No way! That would totally be unfair of them! They've got to have them hanging on a clothes rack or something around here...

[ Or so she hopes, anyways, but if they did...Minako would just have to find a way to get to them. She was too determined to wear cute costumes to give up now! ]

[personal profile] meowbel 2016-08-20 11:16 pm (UTC)(link)
[The moment she heard Minako being loud, she quickly looked around to see anyone else might be coming in. Much to her relief, it seemed that nobody heard her.]

You never know...! They always hide the good things in some safe or something! That's how it always works!

[Or at least for her it does. But as she continued to look around, there was one certain door she couldn't help but eye at. As she narrowed her eyes, that door looked mighty suspicious indeed!]

But then again, you never know if it might just randomly show up! You know what I'm saying?

[Hint hint nudge nudge wink wink!]
outloving: (smug ♀ tsk tsk.)

sorry for the late tag!

[personal profile] outloving 2016-08-22 07:23 pm (UTC)(link)
Huh, you've got a point...

[ Minako follows Mabel's gaze to the door in question, immediately picking up on the girl's hint. There was a chance that the costumes were hidden inside of there, so it was just a matter of getting inside. Well, she supposes they'll just have to do it the old-fashioned way. ]

Know how to pick locks?
meowbel: (FIRE)

No worries!

[personal profile] meowbel 2016-08-22 07:56 pm (UTC)(link)
[Was it a bad thing that Mabel kind of knew how? Or at least, some vague idea of how to unlock it? But as she looked at the door, she gave a small hum before looking back at the blond]

I might but we're going to need some hairclips! And a whooollllee lot of them!

[Because who knows if one is enough!]
