Day at the races!
Who: Everyone!
Where: Moo Moo Farms
When: Saturday, March 20th
Summary:
The day is as lovely as you can expect any early spring day to be. You'll need a coat, yes, and there is a bit of a breeze, but the sun shines happily onto the wooden buildings that make up the Moo Moo Farms where we have all gathered today.
The various farm workers have worked hard to make their farm presentable to the public. Cheerful banners hang between the various sheds, stables and barns, which all have been given a bit of a cleaning (and perhaps a new coat of paint here and there). Of course, it is still a farm, so perhaps don't wear your very best shoes, but as far as farms go, it's been made as neat as can be.
And while the main draws of the day may be releasing the Miltank herd out onto the pasture again after a long winter inside -- whimsically called 'Cow Ballet' on the info sign -- and the Great Tauros Race, Moo Moo Farms has set up various little events and booths to entertain their guests, and perhaps teach them a thing or two about farm life.
A large information sign stands at the gate to the farm, letting visitors know what sort of events are taking place, as well as where and when these are happening. The two big ones -- the Miltank Ballet and the Tauros Race -- are spaced in such a way that people can easily attend both, and most of the other little events are available throughout the entire day.
The Miltank Ballet will be taking place at 1PM over by the big barn. There is little you can do to participate in this (unless you are a cow?), but if you want to watch some ecstatic Miltank dance through the mud and grass after a long winter inside, you should definitely come check this out.
The Tauros Race will start at 4PM (sign ups close at 3PM) and anyone who wants to help give the Tauros a good round of exercise is encouraged and welcome to sign up. There is, according to the sign, a small mystery prize to be won, but surely we are all here because we want to help some cooped up Tauros, right?
In addition to those two big events, two paddocks have been made ready where visitors can test themselves against a Bucking Bronco -- that's his name, Bronco the Bouffalant -- to see how long they can last in the saddle. Due to safety concerns, participants for this event will need to be 16+. For the children, there is a separate rodeo in which they can ride Vaquero the Dubwool, who, for all his seemingly wild behaviour, is actually a very well trained Dubwool who'll make sure no harm comes to the kids.
Of course, while people are free to bring their own food, the Moo Moo Farms have also set up a wide variety of booths where people can buy anything from fresh Moo Moo Milk and milkshakes to freshly made cheese and bread, and oh, is that apple pie? That most certainly is apple pie, as well as various other homey pastries. And as the day goes on, and people might start craving something a little less sweet and more filling, a booth opens up selling various curries. Don't worry, there won't be any Snorlax you need to share with this time!
And for anyone who has found themselves wanting and craving a bovine of their own after all these cute sights, you are in luck! Amidst the various booths, there is also one run by two cheery farm girls, advertising a sale on eggs! All the eggs that are normally available from the Moo Moo Farms can be bought at a whopping 50% discount. Mind that this is only on the purchase price of the egg itself. The price for any additional egg-moves remains the same.
There are also some other, smaller things set up, such a station where you can learn about milking a Miltank and a barrel where you can bob for apples, and even a horseshoe toss game. Most of these are definitely aimed towards teaching and entertaining little kids, but nobody will stop you if you decide to muscle past a row of Youngsters to claim the apple bobbing barrel.

Oh- hi, Jinx-san! I am...but I think my Pokemon are having even more fun.
[Judging by the way they're all so bright eyed and cheerful. All except Thirteen of course, who is still being fussy and not really interacting with the activities all that much just yet.
Izuku will offer Berry a wave of his own once he sees her peek out from behind Jinx's legs, chuckling.]
I didn't know you had a Miltank.
no subject
She's a newer addition, but I thought she'd enjoy this. She's a bit timid though- her name's Berry. [ Like... like strawberry milk... aka the best milk but still. ] I'm hoping I can find a better way to take care of her while we're here. Maybe it'll help her come out of her shell more.
It's nice to see you in person instead of over a camera though.
no subject
[Why hold an event like this at all otherwise, right? Plus it's been giving Izuku the opportunity to meet people he might not have, or at least not for a very long time.
Mighty trills when Jinx reaches out towards him, prompting the Pokemon to push his head into her hand to basically demand pets. Pets, please.]
I thought the same about Thirteen, actually. I was hoping coming here would help him get used to other people and Pokemon.
[Speaking of which...the little ghost is watching from behind Izuku's curls.]
no subject
[ Since he's on the road and everything. ... God, she still hasn't done her gym challenge. How embarrassing.
Still, Mighty is demanding pets and Jinx is going to give him so many. Are those some good chin scritches? You bet they are, she's a master at this with her needy pokémon. ]
Oh- maybe! It might also be a lot to handle all at once though. There's some quiet areas on the outskirts here and there if you need to give him a break. ... I did bring Grimm with me, actually, but I don't know if Thirteen's up for that.
[ The baby's opinion was important after all. ]
no subject
Mighty is- of course- going to soak up the attention like a sponge while Izuku just sighs and allows it. As long as it's keeping him out of his usual trouble.]
I'm proud of how well he's done so far, as long as I stay out of the bigger crowds of people.
[He looks down at the little ghost, who still has yet to take his eye off Jinx.]
You remember Grimm, don't you? From the Gear?
[There's a looooong pause in which Thirteen just hovers there, soundless...before giving a soft little oooo to indicate that he remembers.]
no subject
[ He's literally a nocturnal day-old baby, after all. But other than the continued clinginess, it looks like he's doing well. Even while Jinx continues with Mighty- who's getting so many pets? He's getting so many pets!- she gives Thirteen a smile and a little wave. ]
Once this event's over, we could let them talk maybe? For... lack of a better word. Anyways. I also want to let Amalthea have some time out- she's a bit too big for this particular crowd.
[ Which is also an unspoken offer to let Izuku meet some of her other pokemon. He's just arrived, after all- there's no way he's seen everything this weird place has to offer. Heck, she's pretty sure almost no one has. ]
no subject
[He's hoping Thirteen will be a little more chill, maybe...honestly he should be sleeping, but too much excitement is happening right now for that. Izuku isn't sure if he could make him sleep if he tried.
And yeah, as far as Pokemon go? Izuku is being exposed to so many new ones at a breakneck pace it's actually a little funny. Especially with how many trainers he's meeting here...]
I think I'm going to have Kacchan watch him for me for a little while soon, though...I uh. Accidentally got myself signed up for the race happening in a few hours, so...
no subject
[ She didn't really keep an eye on who all reached out to his first Network appearance. A lot was happening. ]
I know it probably is a lot, but it's nice that you get to really take part in your first event here. This is the first time I've been to anything like this, myself...
no subject
Oh, yeah...Kacchan- he's, we're- we've known each other since we were kids. He's always been Kacchan...
[Much to ol' Kacchan's chagrin.]
I have! I hope I can talk to them more later...they were busy looking for someone who had gone missing at the time. And thank you...I mostly just hope that I don't fall off during the race or anything like that. Kirishima-kun is going to be in it too, but I think Kacchan is just going to watch.
[Always judging him harshly...]
no subject
[ She just shrugs though. ]
Makes sense, you can't all be running around. But if you need a hand, you've got my number.
no subject
Oh no, you're fine. I was trying to help keep an eye out for them, so I'm glad they turned up eventually.
[At that, Izuku laughs a little.]
The only thing I really need help with right now is how to ride a bull, honestly...
