Twenty-Sixth Reel: Charity Event! One Day Only!
Who: Everyone!
What: Charity Event featuring bake sales, a magic show, an auction, and much more!
Where: Genessia City Park--> Changed to Genessia Library, Outside Nova City Museum, Outside Attleton University, Outside the Everglade Sheriff Station, and The Singing Meadows in Fayren --> Changed to Juliet's Lair in Fayren
When: November 5th
Warnings:Good Hearted Intentions!! A-Actually, there's a thunderstorm in Genessia, and it's pouring in Fayren! So the venues have changed! Please adjust accordingly! Especially for the last venue. It's a lingerie shop.
The weather for most cities is pleasant enough to sell baked goods outside, while a couple of other cities have to make due. Either way, the charity event must endure and collect money for every charity! At each location, fresh, warm delicacies are waiting to be sold, kept under a halogen lamp for optimum warmth. While the treats are for sale, warm beverages are not! Tea, coffee, hot chocolate, and warm milk will be served, but don't expect anything fancy! They're already premade and stored in thermal containers.
The magic show is sure to please audiences of all ages! A good magic fight without the unnecessary collateral damage! The auction will showcase items being offered for sale, as well as services from other residents. Need a new lamp? Need a home decorator? Then the auction is the place to probably find what you want!
Other events are available, as last minute entries are more than welcome! But remember: it's for charity! Anyone caught being naughty will have to deal with Grell.

She wasn't sure who to ask about setting up a booth or finding space to show off her wares, but she noticed that people were working their way onto the stage one at a time. Maybe she was supposed to show off what she had for sale there?
It seemed unusual, but then again, she had never been to an auction before - maybe that's just how they handle these situations. Exquipping into a breastplate that she had been meaning to sell for a while now (it had gotten a bit too tight for her tastes), she stepped onto the stage when it seemed like there was an opening.
...Only for her stage fright to hit her like a ton of bricks. Hoping to focus on anything but the crowd, she turns to show off the armour from a variety of angles. Once that's done, she'll switch to a pink tutu with a swan head sticking out of the skirt. Sure, it was a gift from Natsu, but he'd be glad that it's being used to raise money for charity, right?
(Okay, so she just wants to get rid of it - it doesn't really suit her.)]
no subject
20 red bills for the pink tutu!
no subject
[Erza changes to something else and summons the tutu into her hands, preparing to hand it off to the first person to bid on it, only to be informed that auctions don't work like that.]
...Um... Does anyone else want this? [She isn't exactly enthusiastic about putting it back on.]
no subject
troll friendprankster in all of Fairy Tail when it came to surprising people. And what would surprise and terrify Erza more than anything? Why the sickly silky voice of Ichiya Vandalay chiming into the auction to bid on Erza herself.]100 red bills for my sweet red haired honey~!
[Sometimes being a transformation magic mage was just mean.]
no subject
[Erza is frozen in place, as she's hit with a double dose of surprise/terror. On one hand, Ichiya is in Genessia. That would be horrifying enough, especially if he decided "there's no Blue Pegasus guild here, so I might as well spend all of my time hanging around the Fairy Tail guild!", but then the auctioneer's words cause her face to turn pale.
A date? With Ichiya?! After that time where Mira set her up on a blind date with him, it's not exactly an experience that she wants to go through again. But she can't back out now - not when this is for charity...
She tries to utter some kind of excuse, but no words come out as the auctioneer calls out.]
Going once! Twice!
no subject
What Ichiya? It was all a bad dream Erza, shhh, shhh, let Mirajane take care of you, she'll keep you safe.]
150!
[She debated saying but only under the condition that Erza exquiped into a rubber duck floatie, or something else ridiculous, but she figured there'd be time to humiliate her later, and she wanted to be on Erza's good side more than humiliate her... at the moment. What better way than to save her from terrifying peril? Even if it was peril that she herself had created... Hey, at least the extra money spent on a joke and a date with Erza was for a good cause.]
no subject
Mirajane's bid goes unchallenged, so she's called up to claim her date. Ignoring a few wolf whistles from the crowd, Erza leans over to whisper in Mira's ear.]
You're a lifesaver - thanks. [Her eyes dart around a bit, as if expecting Ichiya to dart out from every corner. Maybe she just imagined that she had heard him? It wouldn't be the first time that this place had played tricks on her...]
no subject
Just remember, I expect you to get me flowers for our date~! I already paid for you after all so you have to make this date worth my while, and impress me.
[Oh she was definitely going to hold Erza to it. She'd already been thinking of dating the red haired woman, and while this was a slight acceleration of her original plans it could still work towards her overall goal. Erza needed to get comfortable with the idea of her as a potential romantic partner, and one of the ways for that to happen would be to turn it into a mission of sorts. She would need to learn the proper way to take a lady like herself out on a date. Would she approach it like a guy would? Would she approach it like a lady would? Would she perhaps do some sort of horribly over the top miss mash? Mirajane was almost excited to find out.]
You have two weeks to plan the perfect first date Erza Scarlet, so don't let me down.
[Yup, she was going to make Erza plan it all since she was the one who bought her as a date. This might be her most evil and ingenious plan ever.]
no subject
[Erza gulps, visibly nervous now that the reality of the situation is hitting home. Sure, she has plenty of cheesy romance novels to draw from, but those mainly tended to be useful for... smuttier scenarios. Then there was that time when she tried giving Wendy dating advice, but that wasn't met with a positive reaction. On top of all of that, she's not even sure how a date with another woman would be different from any other date, or how seriously Mira's going to take all of this.
...She'll have to do a lot of research.]
I owe you a lot for this, so... I'll see what I can do. ...Though I'm not sure how impressive it'll be - this might come as a surprise, but I don't have much experience with this.
1/2
[She didn't mean to be mean... but Erza did sort of left herself wide open for that one.]
2/2
Think of it as your assignment Erza. You have to learn at some point, so perhaps forcing you to go on a date with me will help you mature.
[Not that Erza was immature when it mattered, but when it came to romance... the poor girl was a mess.]
no subject
All right. I'll do my best - I can't think of a whole lot of examples from the guild to go off of, but I'm sure I'll find something in this place that will work.
no subject
Alright, I will give you one or two pointers.
[Mirajane takes a moment to pull out her magic marker and pointer, and quickly jots out a few points for Erza to remember so that their first date won't be a total disaster for her.]
Number one, nothing that involves me having to get physically violent. The last thing I want is to have to work up a sweat brawling on what's supposed to be a date I won in an auction. So no training, no sniper ranges, and no 'games' like that either.
Number two, I'm a classy lady so don't take me to some fast food joint or anywhere they serve food in Styrofoam boxes.
Number three, this is a date so no large group activities. It's meant to be a one on one occasion, so don't invite half of Genessia to spectate it.
Number four, nothing obnoxious or overly silly. If there's some sort of yodeling concert, or a play about ducks going to war with porcupines, kindly refrain from taking me to such events.
Number five, and I can't stress this one enough, no armor. I think by now you know well enough what to wear for a given occasion, but if I see you dressed in a breastplate or with a sword at your hip I'm going to be very displeased.
[She twirled her pointer in her hand like a baton before pointing it at Erza.]
Got it? Those are the basics, and I'll leave the rest up to you.
[Mostly it was a list of what not to do, so she wasn't really helping Erza that much in what she should do. At least this way Mirajane was fairly certain she wouldn't be forced to do anything too unpleasant. It was funny, because some of those things she might actually do if she was setting up a date for Erza because she might fun it fun, but she hoped to broaden Erza's horizons to a classier kind of dating experience.]
no subject
I've got it. [Admittedly, that first point rules out one of her plans, but she can come up with something else. ...Hopefully.] Thank you - this all seems so complicated, so I'm glad for your help.
