LANTERN RITE

WHO: ALL
WHERE: DAFFODIL BARN
WHEN: Day 59, all day baby

[You may have gotten a note delivered this morning inviting you to THE LANTERN RITE. The invite is as follows:

LANTERN RITE
Please come eat food, fly kites, send wishes on paper lanterns into the sky
Harass Tart for magic fireworks
COME EARLY to handcraft your own kites and lanterns! Materials provided!!!!!!!!!

There's picnic tables with supplies at the ready! Materials provided because arts and crafts shit is free from Red so certain hyenas don't have to swallow their pride. Stubborn little bastard. Paper, wood in just the right sizes, candles that did not ruin us because we're good at the economy, paints and crayons, string. All the little bits and bobs you need to make lanterns and kites to send your wishes soaring above to the heavens.

There's tea, there's egg soup, grilled fish, fried radish balls, a noodle soup with delicious and safe mushrooms don't worry about it… and lots of oranges. So many oranges. Oranges are free.

If you wish to learn more about Lantern Rite, perhaps a tall, handsome man with a soothing and dreamy voice could tell you a story….]

Thanks!

[Time to paint some warning colors on this baby]

This is actually kind of fun. Do you do stuff like this often? You're a good teacher.

That's a good kind of problem-solving skill to have.

[She looks at her handiwork. It looks... pretty okay for a first try. She's used to doing sketches, but not physically crafting stuff. It's a little rough around the edges but at least you can tell what it's supposed to be. Will it actually fly? Who the fuck knows.]

Good job, me!

So now do I just... hold it up to the wind? Is that how it works?

There is a little bit more to it, but ehhhh, basically.
