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!

It can?

[ What... Well, this leads easily into the next part of his plan. ]

Does the book got a picture of that? Can I see?

[vogelfrei]

[ McGillis seems surprised Eli is this interested, but then again... who isn't curious about random things sometimes?

Thus McGillis has never been more of a hapless old man than right now, as he briefly checks the page number he was on before flipping back a few pages to pull the blanket octopus back up. It has really earned its name.

He pushes the book over to Eli a little. ]

Here, this is it. They have one in the big tank downstairs, allegedly. I have yet to spot it.

[fullmoonmutt]

...the hell... It looks like it has banners for arms!

[ Eli wants to see it for real! But later. He sadly has a dare to complete, and now that McGillis has the book held out for him to see, he moves quick, to snatch it away and then leaps back a step. ]

Sorry! You gotta come over and join us if you want this back!

[ HE REALLY IS SORRY.

But not enough that he won't turn tail and run back to Celeste with the book. ]

[vogelfrei]

--?!

[ McGillis makes a slightly undignified noise of surprise as his book is so rudely ripped away from him. ]

Eli, what--

[ There he goes. What the fuck. McGillis, who is currently not super pleased with either Eli or Celeste thanks to his overtired emotions, is deeply disgruntled about this. But he does follow, in a normal walk because you cannot make him yakkety sax you for this.
