2017 Winter Holiday Party!
WHO: OPEN TO ALL!
WHAT: Holiday party! Date auction! Shenanigans.
WHEN: December 15th, 2017 - Evening
WHERE: Fairy Tale HQ - Fayren
NOTES: The auction and the kissing contest are time sensitive! Bids close and the last kiss will be accepted on Friday, December 22nd, at midnight PST!
Fayren didn't have electricity, but it had something even better.
MAGIC!
There were twinkling colored lights that burned, flickered, and floated in an ethereal way, enchanting the building in a way that fluorescent lights never could. Branches of evergreen were hung here and there to give the air a fresh pine scent. There were also pinecones doused with cinnamon and nutmeg near the doorways.
Except near the kitchens, because the food smells were more than enough to entice the senses. There were mini-sausages swimming in a thick and spicy sauce, sweet and tangy meatballs on toothpicks, vegetables and dip, bite-sized cream puffs, iced sugar cookies, cheese and crackers, mulled cider, and eggnog in alcoholic and non-alcoholic varieties.
The main room, expansive as it was, had plenty of room for music, dancing, and mingling. There were some tables and several chairs set up, and a small stage where musicians were welcome to perform to their heart's content. To the side was an even smaller stage where a sprig of mistletoe was suspended on a loop of scarlet ribbon, with a sign that reads: "Test Your Passion! Win This Arcade Game!" And next to that was a full-sized arcade game version of Alley Brawlers. Might be worth checking out!
But there were more games than that, and more than a few maps set up on easels of the headquarters and where to go to play certain games. A single lane bowling alley (with manual set-up of the pins), a "fishing" booth where people toss a clothespin on a fishing line over a curtain to have a little prize attached by someone hidden on the other side, a ring toss for cans of soda, a cake walk (with full-sized cakes for the winners and cupcakes for the losers), ornament decorating, pin-the-tail-on-the-unicorn, face painting, a pool of rubber ducks with numbers corresponding to prizes on the bottom, goldfish scooping... Almost anything one would find at a carnival was sure to be found here.
As for the auction? Step right up, right past the gauzy white curtains into a big room lit with twinkling golden lights. Anyone was welcome to come in, but if someone wanted to participate as a bidder, they'd have to make a donation at the door. In return, each donor would receive a packet of 100 red tickets with the same number assigned to the bidder name: one roll of tickets with 101 for the first donor, a roll of tickets with 102 for the second donor, and so on.
Cookies and punch were available in this room, with several tables and chairs set up before a large stage with a microphone. Along the wall was a line of clear plastic boxes, with slots on top, set in front of each auction date's face. A card that indicated the name of each person, their age, and a brief description of what they were all about was pasted onto the front of the boxes. People were welcome to look at the line-up if they wanted, or even use some of their tickets prematurely if they wanted, as they were clearly for a drawing. Until the auction starts, soft piano music plays from a stereo running on batteries.

Some do, yes.
[She is the exception but most woman do as they are told. Her father had been kind and had given her the same freedom that her mother would have wanted and part of that freedom was to say no to the suitors who had stood at her door.]
no subject
That sounds.... dreadful. To not be with someone that you truly love is... awful. [just the thought of his sister, mipha, being forced to marry someone that wasn't link. he couldn't handle the thought, he knew just how much his sister loved link.]
Young one, the fact that you wish to also marry for love is the right way to go about things. And here, in this place, you will get the chance to do so.
no subject
Thank you for saying so. I hope I am able to fall in love. Here or... anywhere.
[It isn't something she's expecting right now. There are people she likes very much but she doesn't know if that's love.]
Is that why you're here? Looking for someone you love?
no subject
Oh no no, I wish to find friends before love. I figured this was the best place to start.
[and oh wow, he just realized he had never introduced himself. sidon grinned a toothy grin at her.]
Just where are my manners? Sorry for not introducing myself! I am Prince Sidon of the Zora people. We hail from Hyrule! And just what is your name?
no subject
That's very wise of you, on both accounts.
[She hadn't introduced herself either...]
It's a pleasure to meet you Prince Sidon. I'm Belle.
no subject
[sidon takes one big bow before standing up to his regular massive height.]
Now then, I should let you go, the bidding will start soon and I plan to cheer everyone on!
no subject
Thank you. It was lovely speaking with you.
I hope we are able to speak again.
