Weiss's Finest Block Party

[whiteas]

WHO: Anyone and everyone!
WHAT: Block Party!
WHEN: August 8th, 2pm-9pm
WHERE: The block between Oak & 8th and Nettle & 8th, both ends of which are blocked off with sandbags to prevent traffic from running someone over.
WARNINGS: Don't pee in the ballpit and don't get burnt. --But no probably nothing?

When you arrive, it's very obvious where the party is. If the sandbags blocking off the street aren't an indication, the large hand-painted signs ("BLOCK PARTY! Come one and all!") in extremely neat writing on the front of them and the balloons going in an arch from one end of either side of the sandbag barrier to the other make it pretty obvious. The arrow-shaped signs going down the streets at every street corner for at least 5 blocks out in any direction might help too.

Various balloons are tied up to the trees on the block and there's a pleasant music of actual MUSICAL SINGING BIRDS courtesy of Fluttershy fluttering through the air. The smell of chickens roasting over a rotisserie spit floats through the air and if you follow it, you'll find a canvas canopy over a couple of tables filled with various FOOD like Himawari's cheesecake, Yuuki's salad, Azula's fruit tarts, Sun's fruit bowl, Ryu's sushi, Weiss's chocolate chip cookies (carefully hidden from Ruby with much effort) and lemonade, water, and more (since it's basically whatever anyone shows up with). There's not a ballpit, sorry, false advertising I know-- but there IS a BOUNCE HOUSE for children and small people. (If you pop it, you pay for it, and Weiss will find a way to hunt you down.) There are plenty of places to sit, including the BEACH CHAIRS that Weiss may have borrowed from their apartment's pool... but she definitely plans on returning them, of course and various PICNIC BLANKETS set out on lawns for anyone who didn't get a beach chair. There's a barrel for APPLE BOBBING as well!

Overall, it's a very peaceful experience. But, just that wouldn't be anywhere near enough to make it spectacular. There's a series of events that will be happening as well:

3:15PM: Firebending Show (Performed by Zuko)
4:00PM: Limbo Contest (Prize: A gift card for music credits from "From Dust Till Dawn" in the Vale archway and a large box of chocolate. There is a section to comment for this one so I know who to RNG from.)
5:30PM: Watermelon Smashing Contest (No prize, but you get to eat watermelon.)
6:15PM: Dance (All other events are cleared and the birds will stop to be replaced by very loud music (stereos, but it's there) from a variety of worlds with large rental floodlights on the floor and smoke machines for an excellent outdoor dancing experience.)
7:30PM: Bon Fire. Back to birds for quiet music and a bon fire in the middle of the street, surrounded by rocks to make sure people knew the fire wouldn't spread (even though Weiss is sure Zuko has a handle on it). All the chairs will be brought around in a circle at a safe distance, leaving a circle for any dances that people might want to do on their own.
9:00PM: Fireworks. The end of the party will be set off with a stream of fireworks in the sky! It's actually a pretty impressive show and.. partially affected by Dust to make it look even more impressive.

Have fun, comment freely, and EVERYONE IS INVITED as long as you promise not to ruin anything!

Limbo Contest

[whiteas]

[ You can play this out if you'd like, but mostly I need to see a comment for entrants so that I can RNG the prize! ]

Re: Limbo Contest

[koishi_komeiji]

[OOC: Koishi will enter. Hopefully the rules are clear enough so that she knows not to fly...)

[luckymonster]

This sounds easy enough. What will I stand to win if I join?

various

[whiteas]

[ Weiss, dressed appropriately in an informal but still frilly dress, can be found through most of the party running around and making sure that things are running smoothly. Whenever it's time for a new event, she's making sure it's prepared properly and safely and everything is ready. So either catch her there or one of the couple of times she's actually taking a break...

Beach Chairs
No events for now? Weiss is taking a break with a nice pair of sunglasses on and relaxing on some of the beach chairs. Feel free to come talk to her... or be concerned about whether or not she put sunscreen on since she's really pale honestly.

Food
Hey, even Weiss has to eat at some point. Though she has been spending quite a lot of time hovering around the food area too, trying to keep an eye out for certain teammates who love cookies far too much and she's trying to make sure that other people get some.

Other than that, she's definitely got a plate of a few things, like the salad, a bit of chicken, and some fruit. She'll try some dessert later, but she wants to get some actual food in first.

Firebending Show
Weiss apparently decided to stop whatever she was doing to come over and watch, honestly looking more impressed and enthused than she normally does at a lot of things. Oops.

Dance
Weiss isn't dancing, but she's trying to clean up in the background while the music goes. If someone asks her to dance, she might not say no. Maybe. Really, it depends on the person.

Bonfire
Finally! A chance for Weiss to really relax. After a full day of this, she's exhausted and is taking a break near the bon fire. She pulled up one of the picnic blankets so that the other guests could have the chairs that were out and was sitting on it with her legs folded beneath her, a bottle of water the only thing accompanying her on the picnic blanket. Just a little break before she has to go set off the fireworks~ ]

pre-party, during the set up?

[banishment]

Weiss?

[ he's late. he planned to be here earlier than this to help more with the set up, but had to bring himself down from the panic attack the state he woke up in put him in and give himself a good pep talk when it came to going out looking as he did now. it wasn't so much walking into the bathroom to find himself wearing fire nation clothes with real gold trim or even the small golden flame placed in the ponytail of hair that seemed to have grown just past his shoulders overnight. no, it was the sight of his face, flawless and free of the mark his father had inflicted upon him.

funny, how he was more comfortable going out in public disfigured than looking as if nothing had ever touched him.

and now he stood behind her, fists balled at his sides, nervous and seriously considering just getting the hell out of there. ]

Food

[oldspyce]

[Festivity? Yes please. Genessia was starting to become too dreary, it was about time someone set something up to lighten the mood, and this was just the event for it.

Of course not all of Raven's worries have subsided, but even he knew there was a time of seriousness, and there was a time for celebration. There was a few weeks of peace, save for that one night, and one event. Things have been relatively calm.

More seriously (which was debatable to others,) there was a cute young girl, and it seemed like she was one of the main leads of this event. It was only appropriate to interact with her.]

Ahhh, what a lovely place. Filled with smiles and fondness. This is exactly what Genessia needed.

[Oh, he might have been tipsy due to a little alcohol Raven allowed himself.]

Would this be your doin' young lady?

[He'll also be slightly over friendly, but it's okay. He won't make her too uncomfortable.]

FOOD OM NOM

[weavemyownfate]

Casual attire? What in the world is -that-? Satsuki arrives, probably not by herself but she is on her own at the very moment with a little something on hand.

And by a little, I mean a lot because she's brought a (not literal) ton of onigiri, some circular, some triangular, others square, all carted in closed rolling cooler.

Now that just leaves where she should leave the cooler..

[luckymonster]

Azula came in early. She was always punctual for parties. Maybe because she was always punctual with everything. It was drilled in her head. So she may arrive an hour early. Since she has yet to fund herself, she is wearing her party dress. Not that luxurious, but she will fill her drawers soon enough.

For now, she has 3 large boxes of fruit tarts which she made today. Each one carrying 2 dozen fruit tarts each. She's also carrying a box that was large enough fit herself inside. It was full of different salad preparations. Deconstructed Cobb Salad, fruit salad and Cream Cheese Salad. She could have done more, but she couldn't find Zuzu anywhere to carry it all for her. "I, Princess Azula, has arrived! And as always, I am a very punctual guest!", she exclaimed once she rested the food on the table.

Bonfire

[shining_beacon]

[Ozpin will have been overseeing things from the shadows, making sure food didn't run out, or any of the other guests didn't make too much of a fuss, but overall, he let Weiss handle everything. Once she finally takes a break, however, he will be there, cane in one hand, coffee in the other.]

Enjoying yourself Miss Schnee?

[tenminutes]

[ After hearing about it from someone else, Yuri decided to go check it out. It was loud enough that she could definitely hear anyway. She had quite a few questions, particularly about how the birds were apparently trained to actually sing. That was interesting.

But nowhere near as interesting as the Bounce House. Seriously, someone is going to have to get her out of there because she doesn't belong there but is totally doing flips and stuff in there with the kids. ]

Sun Wukong | Open

[monkeystowaway]

[Sun did his part to help this Schnee party off the ground. He blocked off the designated roads that Weiss asked him to block off, and he even brought some fruit! Not stolen fruit, mind you. He didn't need an angry Weiss on his hands. Not that she'd find out about it anyway if he did.

Food
At the snack table, Sun is there mostly partaking in some of the fruit that he brought. But he samples some of the things brought by others! He snags some of the sushi and maybe some salad and a piece of cheesecake. A lot of the food looked good, if he’s being completely honest. And watch out for his tail, cause its hold his drink.

Dancing

Sun hasn’t hit the dance floor, but he parked somewhere near by watching everyone else as they enjoy themselves.

Bon Fire

Around this time, Sun is relaxing near the fire, winding down from the events of the party. Staring into the fire, he thinks and reflects on things from the past, things in the present and things that the future might hold.

Anywhere

Whether Sun is sitting in a nearby tree enjoying a snack, lounging on a picnic blanket or beach chair or looking for a dance, he's on a vigilant look out for those that he might know or for new people to meet!]

food

[whiteas]

[ Weiss is completely swiping his drink from his tail, one hand touching it to get it to loosen its grip on the drink. That is not how you hold drinks, Sun. ]

If someone bumps into you, you're going to spill this all over yourself.

Food

[forever_prince]

[Laharl-chan will be coming in, snatching up virtually anything that isn't nailed down and piling it onto her plate, and not exactly caring who's in her way when she does so.]

Monkey versus Robot....er that is Raccoon!

[mamizou_futatsuiwa]

[Not that the woman looks anything like a raccoon. That is just a silly thought! She finds Sun near the banquet table, offering a warm smile as she approaches.]

It would seem this lovely occasion has given us a chance to meet one another in person, Monkey King.

[She's a little formal for such a casual gathering, really.]

I assume you managed to find your way around Tokyo well enough?

Grimmjow Jaegerjaquez | Bleach

[grindpantera]

[Grimmjow is at the block party mostly cause he’s bored. Being around so many people makes him consider ditching, though. He’s not exactly a people person. But whatever. He’s sampling some of the sushi that they had laid out for them. He didn’t bring any food to the party because fuck bringing food for people he didn’t even know.

He takes a bite of some of the sushi.]

Not bad.

[buriedtreasure]

[ Nanana had thought about skipping out on the party. Honestly, she would rather be exploring new places, finding new things. But then she considered the possibility of pudding. Potluck-style free food meant that people would bring different things, and the probability of one of those things being pudding was better than her mysteriously finding some pudding that was still cold. ]

None..!

[ She looked so upset. Well. Only for a few seconds. She perks up as she sets her own food that she brought down. She was prepared for this! And Grimmjow was right next to her to be the first to witness her setting down a giga pudding in all its wobbling glory right next to the sushi. ]

[soldierofloveandbeauty]

Food

[Whenever there is food there is usually a Minako close by, mostly because food is kind of awesome and delicious and needs to be eaten. Never the less she is enjoying what is there, taking mouthfuls of one thing or another that thankfully she first put on her plate before actually tucking into.

You are free to find her still by the table, thinking about what to have for her third plateful.]

Dance

[Minako was out there on the dance floor giving it her all. She had been enjoying herself all day and this was a great chance to show off her moves and show people what she's got. She may or may not make her way over to people in order to try and get them on the dance floor.]

Watermelon Smashing Contest

[Minako just wants some watermelon, okay? Smashing it just makes the eating afterwards all the more fun and delicious.]

watermelon smashing

[whiteas]

When you're done, I need to talk to you.

[ Minako wasn't in trouble or anything, Weiss just.. somehow manages to make a lot of things sound like they mean trouble. Either way, she's going to be watching Minako try to smash the watermelon. ]

[watchesthesea]

Singing Birds

[Kairi had been rather curious about the singing birds. They were tweeting a tune so perfectly and she just was curious as to how that worked. How was someone able to do such a thing? Never the less Kairi can be seen standing there just simply watching them tweet their little songs.]

Bonfire

[Kairi managed to get the a chair as she sat down and glanced over at the flames that danced and swayed, giving a nice small smile as she did. They gave her time to think about the things that had happened lately. Sora had gone even if for a little bit. Riku had finally arrived, but he didn't remember their time on the open seas and his hair was considerably shorter. If she recalled he mentioned something about her insisting, so it had started to make her wonder if she cut his hair or not. Maybe that would make a nice job change.

Never the less all these thoughts made her smile slightly. She was happy again, she wasn't in danger, her two best friends in the world were with her and they were living together and all in all, things were just going good.

Opening her eyes, she looked at the flames once more, her fingers clasping themselves very lightly as she just looked on.]

Fireworks

[Kairi couldn't help but stare in awe at the fireworks. They were so pretty and there seemed to be a vast variety of them too. Different colours and sizes among other things.]

Oh, wow. So pretty... [She looked around at the other people, giving a small smile. It seemed like the others were enjoying themselves too.]

You enjoying the fireworks too?

Fireworks

[forever_prince]

[Laharl just gives a shrug, putting her hands behind her head.]

Eh, they're okay. The stuff in the Netherworld is better if you ask me.

Primarily Food but open to other places as well

[forever_prince]

[A good half hour into the party, someone decides to kick in the door. Literally. What walks in is a rather tall, slender, and curvy young woman, wearing red jeans, a bikini top, and a scarf that's at least as long as she is tall. She strides in, arms crossed under her chest like she owns the place, helping herself to the food. She will be around, being a general brat to anyone that approaches her. What do?]

[buriedtreasure]

[ What do? Nanana knows what do.

Or at least, she's partially phasing through the table so that only her head can be seen on one of the plates that's empty, trying to see if she can scare people.

She doesn't get much of a chance to do the whole haunting thing since she was stuck in her own apartment, alright? ]

Boo!

[ Fantastic at it. ]

Food

[badluckcharm]

[Himawari will just be here, sorting out the placement of her sore brought cheesecake before sorting out he one she for once actually made. She wasn't sure how exactly it was going to turn out, but all she could do right now was linger and see what the people thought.]

[whiteas]

[ Weiss was busy running back and forth, but she was certainly making sure to talk to just about everyone she could and make sure that everything was going as it was supposed to. So when she spotted Himawari she came over. The girl had indicated that she hadn't made cheesecake before, so it was best to ask. ]

How did it turn out?

[kindprincess]

Food

[Yuuki felt rather proud at her little salad that she managed to make all on her own; or to be exact she just chopped up and put in a bowl with some dressing. But never the less she did it all on her own and nothing went horribly wrong. She made a mental note to keep it up with simple things later.

Never the less she put some of her salad on a plate before using a fork she had picked up o try it. Come bother her while she tries to figure out if she put too much dressing on it or not.]

Bouncy Castle

[Considering she had planned on taking a little child along to this thing, one could find Yuuki trying to keep her balance on something one doesn't usually. So after a good minute of trying she falls flat on her back. Today was really note a good day for wearing a skirt for this type of thing, but at least she is trying to keep her modesty.

After a minute and standing up today she soon starts to bounce. See the joy on her face as she bounces along with some little children with her being the biggest kid in there.]

[bittykaname]

When Kaname arrived at the party, he had a frown on his face. Damn it. He lost his sister. He was supposed to guard her. He's not even sure where he was. But he needed to make sure his sister was alright. He can sense her. He was getting close to her.

From what he saw on the feed, it seemed people underwent strange transformations today. Some guy turned into a girl, while some people turned old or turned small. So he didn't question why Yuuki seemed to be tall for her age.

He looked up at her as she bounced inside the castle. "Stop playing with all those kids, sister! It could be dangerous for you!"

[Open to Anyone]

[koishi_komeiji]

Emotion. Excitement and joy. These things were all ringing in the air, rippling outward far further than any sound or visual would easily carry. It was this psychic presence that drew Koishi to the party, the often unseen youkai wandering in, eyes alight. A party... A joyous wonderful party. Full of people and excitement! Not as big as one of the oni's events, and certainly with far less alcohol, but a welcomed treat none the less!

Firebending Show
Koishi arrived just as Zuko's firebending show was starting to draw to a close, Koishi stopping to take in the sight. She had never seen 'danmaku' performed like that before. Well, except for he devil mansion's gate guard, but she used chi and it was an entirely different type of martial art. This was fire! Real fire! And it was quite lovely.

Steeling her mind and focusing on making herself visible, she stepped forward once the show was over, trying to get Zuko's attention. There was no guarentee she would due to the unpredictable nature of her powers, but she had to try! She had questions!

Limbo Contest
Eventually she had to find something else to do and another event managed to quickly catch her attention. A limbo contest. What limbo was, she had no idea, but it looked like a lot of fun. Putting an extra huge effort into being noticed, koishi managed to find out the rules, (and hopefully finding out that she wasn't allowed to fly) she joined in the festivities.

Bounce House
After the contest Koishi wandered a bit, eventually allowing a large, squishy structure full of joy and laughter to draw her full attention. After some investigating she managed to find the entrance and joined the others in the bounce house.

This. This was the greatest thing ever created in the history of mankind. It was like flying! Only she wasn't putting any effort into it! Standing at tiny 4'1", Koishi was easily small enough to get full enjoyment out of the bounce house, her boundless energy kept her occupied for a very very long time.

Oh no. The bounce house is gone :(
All good things must come to an end of course, and end they did, the bouce house being deflated to make room for the dancing. Not only was this immensely dissapointing for the energetic little satori, but she found the music loud and distasteful as well. And now the partygoers were gaining energy, their collective minds creating a rather unpleasant psychic pressure when combined with the music. She would have left entirely if she hadn't found th reminants of the watermelon smashing contest as well as the tables of food. Remembering how hungry she was, she helped herself, picking at the various dishes trying to remain as far away from the music and minds as she could.

Bonfire
She came back over as the music stopped and the bonfire started. All in all it was much quieter and the atmosphere was calmer than the chaos before. She wandered back over, munching on a handful of cookies (that had been somewhat hidden for some reason) when a much more pleasant sound caught her attention. Birds. Though the birds had been singing before she had not noticed it due to the distractions around her. Their simple minds were filled with such joy and focus she had to investigate. Floating up and nearby she hovered around the birds quietly so as not to disturb them. Their little minds were quite comforting, allowing her to focus more easily.

FIREWORKS!!!!
The evening's finale was one that would greatly interest the little youkai. Beyond startled by the first explosion, she fired off several heart shaped bursts of magic in all directions, the shots fizzling after about a fot, though they might sting a bit if someone got hit. She stared up into the sky watching the various explosions for several moments before she realized it wasn't a danmaku duel... It was a display! A lovely display at that. Full of color and rings and expanding circles... and expanding circles... and more circles... and circles within circles...

She frowned. Clearly, whoever was putting this on had no idea how to properly use their danmaku. The shots were spaced so far apart and circles over and over would not win any duels.

Failing to realize it was simply a visual display of controlled explosions, or perhaps not remembering her past experiences with fireworks on the surface.

Koishi rised her arms into the air, her hands glowing with power. She held it for several moments boefore allowing it to shoot up into the air, creating a small shockwave around her. It twisted and turned as it rose, splitting into two separate spheres which twisted into a green and blue double helix as it rose.

Once it reachd a good height the two orbs separated, moving outward before arcing back in nd coliding with an otherworldly crack.

The result was a spectacular display of glowing magical patterns, which the numerous fireworks burst around and inside creating a truly dazzling show. Ripples of orange red and deep blue spheres poured out, bursting into roses and collapsing back down again, causing the blossoms to appear to move around he circles, slowing the further away from the center they got. A moment later the roses began to break apart, balls of etherial petals breaking away, trailing colored sparks, these clumps then bursing into individual petals followed by each one bursting into a firework all its own. The display lingered for as long as the fireworks went on, leaving the entire block smelling strongly of sweet, fragrant roses.

Though most would not know the true nature of the burst of magic, nor recognize the earmarks that clearly identified the user, a select few would. And there was no clearer way Koishi could have broadcast her presence in Genessia. It was rather clear where in the party the display had come from, the commotion more than enough to render the usually hidden youkai visible for some time.

At least she had kept enough sense not to fly up there and shoot the danmaku herself.

Bouncehouse

[tenminutes]

[ Sorry Koishi, there's someone joining you in the bounce house with much less manners than most children. Mostly because she's not exactly a child anymore, no matter how much she wants to pretend she is when it comes to the bounce house. What sounds like it can only be the laugh of a villain comes from god knows where before she suddenly drops from the ceiling of the bounce house (having only managed to stay up there for about 5 seconds before she had to come down), probably launching everything except herself up when she hits the surface.

At least she's not horribly tall (though nowhere near as short as Koishi) so it's not like she's going to risk popping it. ]

Prepare yourself!

Apple Bobbing | With Wendy and eventually Natsu?

[fairyice]

[The block party was unexpected, but it stated all were welcome. Like any of the other members of Fairy Tail, who would be able to pass up something as inviting and as fun as this. Many of the residents here were friendly and kind, and Gray had grown comfortable here over the months.

There was something off though. Gray had already thought of Natsu, Gildarts and Wendy as family because Fairy Tail was essentially his family through and through. However, tonight (and perhaps the rest of the week?) he thought they were blood relatives.

Currently he was with Wendy by the apple bobbing station so they could try their hand at how many apples both of them could get. It sounded like a fun idea.]

Oi, you wanna go first, Wendy?

Hehehe :D let the sugary cuteness begin.

[tenkuunomiko]

[ Wendy was somewhat hiding behind Gray as they entered the extravagant party. She thought it was interesting so she quietly asked Gray, Natsu, and Gildarts to go with her. Somehow, she ended up going with Gray to it as she looked around feeling mesmerized by the large scenery and the amount of people that were surrounding the vicinity.

She was curiously staring at the apple bobbing station tilting her head and dressed in a cute little outfit. ]

Umm...how do you play this, Gray-onii-chan?

With Zuko | Cause AU event ain't as punctual as she is...

[luckymonster]

Azula just watched her brother perform that little circus trick with his firebending. It was impressive, or at least she was sure people would think so. But it took more to impress Azula. What she found curious was a lack of facial scar on Zuko. Did he heed her advice and went to Rekka to have it removed? Hopefully.

After the whole event was over, Azula easily pulled Zuko to a far corner of the party. Somewhere were most people couldn't see them. She pushed a plate of fruit tarts and salad towards Zuko's abdomen and just gave him a not-so-impressed expression. "I'm sure that exhausted you", she said with a hint of sarcasm in her voice. She's always considered herself to be better than Zuko in everything after all.

"Such easy tricks. I could do better. So much better.", she said proudly. After she spoke, a hand rose to her opposite elbow. And her usual straight back was curved slightly. Her shoulders crept forward. "Not that father or mother would notice", she said avoiding eye contact.

[banishment]

He hadn't. Zuko would still be living with the mark their father branded him with if not for whatever had begun to affect a percentage of the population today, causing them to undergo changes that surfaced seemingly of their own accord. But, at least being devoid of his scar meant nobody was hanging around to ask him about how he managed to burn himself when he was otherwise so careful with his fire — which was good, for Azula had him by the elbow and was hauling him off before he had time to pull his tunic back on.

Zuko wrenched his arm out of her grasp, pulling the tunic over his head. It hung loose around his hips without the belt holding it in place. He held that in hand, along with the crown, and shook both at her. "Don't start with that." The parental issues. "I've got enough to deal with today without you going off about something like that."

Terra | Open

[greenmagick]

Arrival

Terra showed up with an assortment of flowers and gently set them on one of the tables. It was all she had to bring and she was worried about showing up with nothing. She was accompanied those she knew but she quickly tried to fade to the background. She wasn't used to big parties and she wasn't very good at socializing. Her eyes wandered over the party goers and a tentative smile played across her lips as she watched them.

Food

Terra picked up some food and found an empty area of the lawn to sit, that was out of the way. As she ate her smile widened at the different tastes. Her plate is mostly filled with sweets and she was clearly enjoying them.

Dance

She watches, now standing a fair distance from the edge of the dance. She wanted to try but her own shyness stopped her. Terra didn't even know if she could dance. Her eyes watched the dancers move and the comparison of flower petals came to mind. The day as a whole has been interesting and even now it was something new. One finger circled the top edge of her class as she stood watching.

Bonfire

The fire was nice and Terra couldn't help but come closer to the group. She sat with her hands out towards the fire, occasionally pushing it and teasing it lightly with her magic. She kept it subtle hoping no one would notice. It was a comforting gesture and it calmed her.

Food!

[dragonform]

[Ryu taps her on the shoulder with a wide smile on his face, holding what appears to be a piece of some kind of fish on top of tightly kneaded rice.]

Hey! I made something special for the party, you should try some!

bonfire → open

[bacciferous]

[ miki sat by the bonfire with her legs tucked under her, having arrived late to the party after she had to cover a shift for someone who failed to come in work today. she wasn't usually the type for parties, though most would assume she was — due in part to her habit of claiming she had other, more important plans with someone else when invited to such things. miki was sought after, but uninterested. her priorities were simply different than others, and those priorities, on top of being a pretty cure and taking dance lessons from miyuki-san, left little room for much else. least of all a social life. she was just lucky that her best friends happened to also be pretty cures alongside her.

but that was home, and this was genessia. she had few acquaintances here, few obligations that weren't tied into ensuring that she had the proper place to live. she did her best to keep her spirits bright, did what she could as her secret alter ego of cure berry, but couldn't help but feel a little lonely here. ...okay, very lonely. she missed her friends. she wanted to go home.

frowning, miki made a fist in the sand and threw a handful of it to the side in an unusual display of frustration.

he was supposed to be perfect, and this situation was far from perfect! ]
