Tana-baa-ta

WHO: everyone!
WHERE: the pasture
WHEN: day 22, all day

[the morning of day 22 begins with a light drizzle, as has been typical for the past few days. but despite the damp weather, a playlist of music also echoes across the pasture, luring you towards the center!]

[there, you will find that someone has planted a large bamboo tree, which is surrounded by wooden tables that are covered with colorful slips of paper and pens. a colorful sign, decorated with random doodles of stars, clouds, suns, and other fun shapes, contains a set of instructions:]

WELCOME TO TANABATA!

WRITE A WISH ON A PIECE OF PAPER AND TIE IT TO THE BAMBOO TREE.

HAVE FUN!

[the music and the bamboo wishing tree are a great start to the festival, but other people have been hard at work to make this a day to remember, right?]

[it's time to celebrate Tana-baa-ta!]

((FEEL FREE TO MAKE YOUR OWN TOP LEVELS IN THIS POST AS WELL! I made a few to get things going, but you should all run wild and free and thread to your heart's content ♥))

Of course we did!

I need your bet if you want to play.

Hm . . . grilled riceballs.

Grilled riceballs...

[she holds out a clover]

If you buy in with this, I can get you an extra serving if you manage to get it.

[he takes it, then shrugs]

My luck isn't that good, but may as well, right?

[Well. She's going to run the game and guess what bud. The roulette? Lands on grilled riceballs.]

What's that about not having good luck?

[wow he was expecting to lose. He even looks surprised]

Guess it's a little better than normal today?

[Here's ur grilled riceball + extra serving]

Now you just have to hope there's no wasabi in them!

[he snorts out a laugh, taking them]

Thanks. Is it a normal amount or am I testing my tolerance?

Well, I don't know what you'd consider normal or what's testing your tolerance!

I guess normal's kind of subjective. Though I guess it doesn't matter much, I like spicy stuff.

By the way - don't think I got your name yesterday.

So it's a win no matter what! A happy ending.

I'm Lyra, though.

Tyr. Sorry about the bad first impression, it's nice to meet you properly.

Nice to meet you properly, too.

If you're gonna shove him up against a wall again, do it in private, though.

[SIGH . . . ]

It's not gonna happen again, but I'll keep it in mind. I've learned my lesson.

The only excusable wall shove is a kabedon. Just keep that in mind!

[he huffs softly, amused]

Yes ma'am, only kabedons from now on.

Glad we can be in agreement!
