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:

... 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!

Over time.

[And he'll squeeze her hand back. Mutually chilly affection that still somehow manages to feel warm.]

I've always been good at it. It started as little street performances to make whatever spare change I could... Then my sire - the man who turned me - took a liking to how much it seemed like I enjoyed it and encouraged me to join a travelling circus.

[And that was better than staying on the streets, but she can be spared that little detail for now.]

Besides that, the sort of vampire I am has the tendency to obsess over some form of art. This is mine.

We do, yes. We're... remarkably similar in some ways, but he is much older and much more eccentric.

[...Surprise, Mafuyu!]

There are. Fifteen for certain, and sixteen if one counts an odd little anomaly that happens sometimes as one.

[And then there are the different bloodlines, and the clans where there are too few of them to quite count-- it's a whole Thing, Mafuyu!]

You haven't met him~

[His tone is chiding, gently, in that fond "I'm enabling the daddy's girl behavior" way. Though if she does ever meet Amour... yeah, Celeste is pretty sure she'll still like him better. He'd just get to show off his cute not-daughter to his vampire not-dad.]

It... is. Though truthfully most fledglings don't concern themselves with the details.

[She just, you know, seems like she'd prefer to have the option of picking at details at her leisure.]

Fair enough.

[His cute! Daughter!]

Some... seem to think knowing too much is dangerous, and others... Well, I imagine it would be like trying to get Izou to write a book report.

[This is said affectionately, of course, but if anything would illustrate just how little some care to get into the weeds...]

[So it was a biiiit of an uncharitable comparison, but she has to admit it was quite the effective mental image!!]

Oh certainly~
