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!

Who wouldn't? [Because man he's from Earth, you didn't grow up and not hear about Cujo or Steven King, no matter what century.] Even if I hadn't, the others probably would have mentioned it at some point... Not a huge fan, but I've seen a few movies.

[That is fine. That is more than fine. He's just going to give the big goober some serious behind-the-ear rubs.]
foolishwren: I'll finish you off. (HMU if you're damaged ;))

[personal profile] foolishwren 2016-08-23 08:18 pm (UTC)(link)
You'd be surprised. People come from all over in this place, and I do mean ALL over.

[Do you have any idea how hard it is for a 90's kid to live in a house full of people from alternate universe 1920's Germany where nobody gets her pop culture references]

[DO YOU]
shiro2hero: (why is it on the CEILING)

[personal profile] shiro2hero 2016-08-23 09:09 pm (UTC)(link)
... Given I was in space before this place? Yeah, I believe that.

[But that doesn't mean he's going to stop scratching this huge dog's ears, nope. While his Aron scoots forward to cautiously headbutt Cujo's foot.]
foolishwren: me: i am an atrocity to god, but thank you (someone: ur cute)

[personal profile] foolishwren 2016-08-24 08:11 am (UTC)(link)
Space, huh?

[If she hadn't met so many other people very obviously from science fictiony worlds (cough GIANT SPACE ROBOTS), she might have been more surprised.]

Well, I can see how going from being out there in the final frontier to suddenly being on solid ground could be somewhat startling.

[Yep, she remembers his initial freakout.]
shiro2hero: ([sappy song lyrics here])

[personal profile] shiro2hero 2016-08-24 08:28 am (UTC)(link)
Space. More planets than I thought... I'd ever see in my life.

[And a lot he didn't want to see but uh. FUNNY STORY ABOUT GIANT SPACE ROBOTS.]

Yeah, well. That's part of it, for sure. [He'll pause in adoring Cujo long enough to look at her.] I guess not everyone shows up yelling like that, huh?
foolishwren: Looks like SOMEONE hasn't tried finger but hole (HEH...)

[personal profile] foolishwren 2016-08-25 10:01 am (UTC)(link)
Nah, plenty do.

Some people get it out of the way before it occurs to them to broadcast it, though.

[Cujo snorts loudly and shoves his nose under Shiro's hand to encourage the continuation of adoration.]
shiro2hero: (time for the charm bomb to explode)

[personal profile] shiro2hero 2016-08-26 02:00 am (UTC)(link)
Ouch. Can I defend myself, or is it too late?

[IN HIS DEFENSE he figured a comm was a comm. But he sounds amused enough. So even if he doesn't get the chance, no hard feelings.]

Whoa, hey -- careful there. [This giant dog is a delight. Where can he get one.]
foolishwren: "Hey kween, welcome to Fruit by the Foot" (celebrating Pride at Chernobyl like)

[personal profile] foolishwren 2016-08-28 11:04 am (UTC)(link)
I'll let you off the hook, but just this once.

[Her tone makes it clear she's 100% kidding. Barking orders into the mic, no matter how frantic, is still a much more level-headed reaction than the people who show up and just kind of scream their brains out.]

[Upon the return of positive attention, Cujo immediately flops down and rolls over to expose the massive expanse of fluff that is his belly, tail sweeping back and forth in the dirt. CONTINUE? YES?]
shiro2hero: (aw lookit the kids suplex each other)

[personal profile] shiro2hero 2016-08-29 01:46 am (UTC)(link)
Guess that means I better watch myself, huh?

[So is he. And it's nice. Joking is nice. Just... being in a normal situation petting a dog and having some back-and-forth without a life or death scenario dogging at their heels.]

[So yes. Cujo gets even more pets. Good boy. Very good boy.]
foolishwren: YA GIRL... (HEY DEMONS IT'S ME...)

[personal profile] foolishwren 2016-08-30 09:30 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, in this place? Gotta sleep with one eye open, bro.

[With a roguish smirk, she reaches out to give him a light slap on the shoulder. If he hadn't been essentially a stranger, she'd have full on punched him and laughed like a madwoman after, but he gets off easy.]

ANYWAY, Cooj, we've taken up enough of the nice man's time. C'mon, you've got a billion food-stand owners to beg for freebies.
shiro2hero: (im so proud of u nerd)

[personal profile] shiro2hero 2016-08-31 03:50 am (UTC)(link)
Good thing I don't sleep.

[Is he. Joking? Is he serious? What even was that, Shiro.]

[It probably speaks to the fact he's been around people younger than him that he flinches a bit from the slap, even though it doesn't hurt, and says, in the most monotone voice possible:]
Ow.

[Cujo gets a few more scratches before he pushes himself up as well.]

Good luck with your food begging.
