(ooc: I'm sorry this took me so long to get around to :\ RL stuff kept popping up until the weekend was over and I was days late. Anyways, feel free to backtag into eternity with me. I know I still have old tags owed to people but I really wanted to throw this thing together. Don't feel like you HAVE to reply if you're invited, but I shall now list the guests. Smoker, Kuzan, Adela, Tashigi, Coby, Chrom, Robin, Ike, Micaiah, Lucy, Levy, Weiss, Athena, Chopper, and Yukiko. Pretty much if you've talked with her, feel free to enjoy some complimentary tea... Except Freeza, no tea for tyrants. Maka, Lenalee, and Orihime can also feel free to tag anything and anywhere they like as staff members.)

Sonico is not the type of young woman to sit back and relax. While other nineteen year olds might leap at the chance of being independent and with no responsibilities - no work; no studies; no band committments; no errands; no cats - Sonico is completely alien to the concept of 'free time'. So, as soon as she finds herself a little one-roomed apartment and signs herself up for some freelance modelling, Sonico is ready to get out and about exploring and finding herself things to do.

video; tuesday 8/2 around 1pm
[ It's been two months and through diligence and carefully covering finding ways to keep the ground cool, sure enough some of the community garden has started to sprout- which Yui is proudly showing off on her video, which starts with a scan over of the tiniest little centimeter-tall sprouts. ]

It's looking good, everyone! Thanks for your hard work. I'll keep trying to make sure these sprouts stay cool and can survive the summer heat..

[ The device goes into her front pocket so the video is still recording in front of her while she puts a shaded net over the sprouts, supported by stakes that are held up throughout the garden. It's at least creating shade and still letting the breeze in through the sides. Once she's done, she turns the video around and smiles. ]

If anyone knows any methods from their world to help sprouts out in the summer, I'd be happy to hear them!

Gardening aside though, I hope everyone's doing well.. and best of luck to those in Everglade. If there's anything I can do, please let me know. It seems like everything in the news has been negative lately, so I was thinking we could do something to cheer people up.

I know it's hot, but I've started learning yoga so I'll be offering free yoga group sessions at Garden Park on Saturdays at 10am! It'll be something of a group share more than a class, since I'll still be learning too but I think it'll help a lot of people feel better. I know it won't solve any of the problems, but hopefully it can help everyone feel less stressed and more healthy when it comes to facing reality. Everyone is welcome who promises to be cordial to others and actively participate.

action; friday 8/5 at 9:15am-9:45am
[ Yui waits quietly at the park setting out mats she borrowed from Sand Gym and just enjoying the light morning breeze and the sound of birds chirping and the little splashes of turtles plopping into the water in the pond. If someone gets to the yoga lessons early, they're more than welcome to talk to her. This is helping her study anyway, since it's review from the lesson she did last night, and she's hoping there's a big turnout. Who knows though, right? It looks like there's a table with those little 8oz water bottles and some fruit trays too- though it's sealed for after the lesson. It's best not to eat right before exercising or you'll get cramps!

OOC NOTE:Want to talk to more than just Yui before yoga lessons? Just put "OTA" in your top level and tag anyone who has an OTA up.

If your character shows up on time, we're handwaving the yoga itself bc Tay-mun doesn't know how to actually teach yoga to write this, but please let me know here if you want a character to be involved but aren't going for a thread. I'd like to get a count of how many people showed up for future reference! ]

[ Bei Dou is smiling pleasantly. Well. As pleasantly as he's able. That can't bode well, he's gotta have something bad to say. He's sitting with one of his many (his biggest, it's huge) snakes resting its head on his shoulder, and he's petting it with is free hand, he's sitting on the snake's coiled body, and he's apparently close to the cloister. ]

This Bei Dou is terribly bored so he has a small request to ask of you all.

If anybody would be kind enough to show me my favorite kind of spectacle? Watching war fold out is a great hobby of mine that I miss dearly, and while I realize that you cannot show me anything like what is currently unfolding in my world where the Yellow Turban party and the supporters of the Han dynasty are clashing, due to the lack of populace in these little cities, even a small war would be fine.

[ There is a wistful little sigh, as if he misses the war in China very much indeed. ]

But I will make do with what I can get, I suppose.
