in the wake of turmoil

What's Up?

Mafuyu and Aerith have hatched a plan to give Braphine's Chosen some time to relax and have fun together! And just in the nick of time...

Date and Location

Afternoon of Monday, October tth into October 8th
The Aquarium within the Office District

The sway of water

It's a normal morning for anyone who's managing to sleep a standard schedule- up until a mass text goes out, that is. Everyone will find the same thing from either Mafuyu or Aerith's username:

ONE NIGHT STAY-OVER AT THE LOCAL AQUARIUM, SCHEDULED MONDAY, OCTOBER SEVENTH!! All of Braphine's Chosen are invited to an exclusive event hosted at the aquarium where guests can spend the day taking tours and then sleep over in qualified areas. Dining will be provided, all we have to bring is ourselves, changes of clothes and pillows and blankets. (And yes, the floors will be extra clean.)

... Simple enough. And should you choose to attend, both your hostesses will be pleased to see you once it's time to head over.

As they said, the aquarium is largely empty save for the group, and it's definitely worth it. A serene song plays overhead while attendants give tours or explanations as needed. The variety of aquatic life is surprisingly vast as well, and spacious halls give way to plenty of opportunity to explore.

Come nightfall, certain rooms dim the lights but the tanks stay lit- or black lit as darker enclosures like the jellyfish hall and the octopus tanks remain- and only a few staff remain to keep an eye on things- so... stay on your best behavior. The two restaurants stay open- a regular fast food joint with kitschy island cabana theming, and a much more upscale lounge where Aerith plans on corralling the adults for fun this evening.

Once it's time for the age groups to split, Aerith will lead the adults to a pleasant lounge with more tanks, large couches or more private tables, and a view overlooking one of the main rooms of the aquarium- wave to the kids if they're there! Or don't. Bouquets of flowers are placed around the room, and it looks like Aerith has a few ideas already, though she won't stop anyone from going out to review the different sections again.

Contrasting Mafuyu, who is content to let the fellow teens do whatever- though if they do congregate, she's not really the social sort and will simply be content to enjoy the vibes. Even if you just want to take a nap somewhere, there's plenty of dark secluded areas to do so.

Out of character!

This log is for an ic sleepover hosted at the aquarium! All characters are invited but attendance is not mandatory. That said, there are still staff members ready to boot any troublemakers out. We wanted to keep the types of displays vague to give everyone creative freedom, and characters are welcome to flit about between groups as they desire, be it to check in or to to snoop or whatever. As discussed with the mods, this does count as an open event and can be used for rewards. Thank you all for your interest!

Never have I ever... attended a wedding!

[ Starting off easy here!! ]

[vogelfrei]

[ Sipping. ]

[gardenful]

Not surprised. You seem like the kinda guy that goes to fancy events.

[ Like... look at him. ]

[speedingticket]

[ Sooooo many weddings. Big chug of tequila. ]

[gardenful]

That's way more than a sip!

[ But she's laughing anyway. ]

[metagame]

[So, in order to be a Pharaoh and not just a regular king, you have to be married... Even though marriage back then was very different than now. So he attended his own wedding... But it was political? They barely even talk since she has her own shit to run? They're not even in the same part of the Field of Reeds!!

He sips his tea anyway as it'd be cheating otherwise.]

[gardenful]

[ Oh! She notices the way he takes a sip, and tilts her head a bit. ]

Did you have fun?

[moodwrecker]

[She is not drinking her soda.]

[gardenful]

[ Give her a hi-five!!! ]

[beathollow]

( also not drinking. )

[gardenful]

There are more of us who haven't gone to one than I expected.

[supherb]

[No sipping here!]

[gardenful]

[ Hi-five? Hi-five!! ]

Seems like a lot of us have got that in common.

[goei]

[As if Izou needed an excuse to drink! But he is.]

Really, not even one?

[cirquedesang]

Izou. Izouuuu.

[He needs a drink and you're here. :)]

[cleansewithfire]

[ ....Well she can't say she hasn't at this point, so she'll sip her soda. ]

[bloodweapon]

[He's not drinking.]

[bloodandstars]

[ She's not drinking either, but she looks a little amused. ]

Seems like the kind of thing you'd like.

[fullmoonmutt]

[ Drinking his soda because tHEY WON'T SERVE HIM ALCOHOL HERE, UGH. ]

[destage]

[Sips a little can of soda...]

They seem like such fun times, but my father never got invited to any...

[imperiosity]

[its supposed to be an easy question but guess who had to think hard about this one

me!!!!!

anyways he takes a sip.]

[moonshaded]

[Hello it's mothman at the aquarium being the most awkward attendee who doesn't fit in. Why is she even here? One can only guess at her motivations.]

They're supposed to be happy occasions. [Supposed to is doing a lot of lifting there, but okay.]

You'd probably fit right in. Hell, make 'em even happier.

[After all that, she does drink... kind of like an afterthought.]

[ledbythewind]

[It's sort of a requirement when you're royalty, so... sipping.

(He finds them terribly boring, honestly.)]

[beautifulknight]

[ No sipping happening here! ]

[strawsandals]

[ Not drinking here! ]
