( Private Action )

[Action - Morning; Attleton]

[Mobius was in a rush for sure, dashing as quickly as his legs would allow while his mind raced the entire time. How could this happen? Why did this happen?! He left not only his post behind but he left his very girlfriend waiting this entire time! Did she hate him for it? He wouldn't blame her if she did, even if that very thought was a shot to his heart. ... hell, was she even still here?

Perish the thought, Mobius. He was a man on a mission right now- time and weather be damned. Because of course it was raining in Attleton today of all days. He had to swing by an early bird florist to get a bouquet of flowers - of course in his colors of white and blue - and made a b-line towards a certain home in the city. Would he run into anyone along the way? Hell if he knew. All he knew was that he fully intended to wait as long as he needed to out in the rain for a certain girl.

He was, of course, well aware of the attire he was currently in thanks to his impromptu trip back home. He didn't want to take part in that damn festival, and now he's really upset about it if said festival was so damn important that he had to be sent home for it.

... but his corgi companion trailing behind him was dressed up in a gryphon costume to match him. That was adorable at least, right?]


[Video - Early Evening]

[Much later in the day, he would appear on the video feed, looking pretty tired. But at least he was in a more familiar change of clothes and not that festival armor he woke up in.]

So. Today I learned that going to the Dream Docks might just straight up send you home for a month and make you do the Bay song and dance all over again. Thanks for that, Genessia. I really appreciate it.

[The sarcasm was practically dripping off those last few words. The feathers on the sides of his head twitched before he sighed.]

... so yeah, hi again. Did I miss anything? All the cities still in one piece?

[Because Everglade politics were sure starting to look a bit dicey after that last election.]

[ The video starts up with the image of a decked out Valentine's Dog. Who then starts talking. ]

Boy have I got a a bone to pick with ya Genessians! Seems like most of you haven't been feeling the holiday spirit! Look at all this barking about Valentine's Day! You gotta be woofin' kiddin' me!

[ He scratches his ear for a moment, his cool glasses slipping a little so he tosses his head back to get them back on his face. ]

Alright, alright. Let's get you mutts a real shot at catching more than your own tail, ha! Now through the day after Valentine's Day, I'll use a little love magic to help everyone find some puppy love. Don't say your best buddy Cupid never helped you out in a pinch!

{ OOC EVENT POST FOR FEEL THE PUPPY LOVE EVENT: NOW STARTING! }

Who: The Digi-girls and any ladies that want to join them in the tiny apartment!
What: Making chocolates for the boys in their lives!
When: Monday mid-day, February 12
Where: Grocery store, the apartment NO TAKERU ALLOWED GET OUT
Warnings: Teenage girl talk. ...and it's Mimi, I mean seriously.

Starting at the grocery store, Mimi was throwing all kinds of chocolate making supplies into her cart. She had been literally saving for this, and her excitement was showing as she danced and hummed to herself while throwing ingredients into the cart.

In fact, she wasn't really paying attention to where the cart was going, and it's very possible she has been narrowly missing people, so it was going to inevitable that she would eventually run into someone.

It would be even better, in her humble opinion, if she ran into more girls looking to make chocolate for the ones they loved! More chocolates for alllll the boys! Best plan ever!

She even had candy thermometers, and fancy molds in different shapes. There were boxes, tins, and lots of red and pink ribbons. This was going to be so much fun!

Her mind started to wander to two places: how Takeru will react to Hikari giving him her chocolates in private because IT'S A SECRET LOVE THAT EVEN THEY DON'T KNOW ABOUT! And the second, caused a small blush as she thought about the reaction to the chocolates she was going to give to her date on Valentine's Day. That was exciting too!

Seriously, she wasn't paying attention in the grocery store. This probably isn't safe.

Who: Lunafreya And OTA
What: The Oracle has decided to go explore the city!
Where: Various locations (feel free to pick where!)
When: February 13th - February 18th (feel free to list the date)
Warnings: Potential mushy Valentine's Day things, possible spoilers for FFXV in cast threads?
Notes: Also, eye color changing thanks to the event! Feel free to prose or action brackets.

Welcome to the Festival of Amore!
A wonderful festival dedicated to celebrating love of the romantic nature.



The whole park is decorated in the traditional colors of Valentine's Day, red, white, and various shades of pink. Hearts are the theme and though you won't be turned away, those without a partner to spend the evening with may get a few strange looks or start to feel rather lonely.

Festival Games
There are a number of activities to partake in, including festival games, the most popular of which seems to be the Super Ball Scooping, in which hundreds of balls float around in a pool of water, secretly marked with prizes- mostly goldfish, though there is one hidden that has a special romantic getaway to win! The challenge is that you must use a paper net, so the balls will often break as you try to get them into your bowl. Additionally, the balls are stirred up after each play of three scoops. Other traditional festival games like dart tossing, wack-a-mole, ring toss, and more. However, there is one challenge that you should be aware of for all games. You and your partner must do them together! This means two hands on the ring when you toss it! Hold the paper net steadily together! Good luck!

Food Stalls and the Chocolate Fondue Stream
There are a variety of foods from around the world available at the festival, most of which seem to have some kind of love-related theme to them. Spaghetti for two a la Lady and the Tramp, heart-shaped pizzas, pink french macarons, hearty waffles on a stick, romantic eggs in a basket, Shrimp skewers, and more.

Running through the inner circle of the food stall areas is a small stream raised above the ground with candy and fruit decorations lining it to hide the metal fondue heater that keeps the chocolate within the body of the stream warm and flowing. There are large bins of fruits like strawberries, bananas, rice krispy treat bites, and other fun things to dip in the chocolate river. It's very cute, and very chocolatey.

Paddle Boats
The large pond in the middle of the park has a number of paddle boat swans available for you and your partner to go through a tunnel of love, or simply enjoy the water and get some alone time away from the rest of the party for a good cuddle.

Live Entertainment: Eli Ayase and Nico Yazawa!
The live entertainment will be provided by celebrity idol Nico Yazawa and Eli Ayase tonight! Put your hands together for a special performance filled with their L-O-V-E for everyone! ♥ ♥ ♥ They've got a wonderful set prepared!

Feel free to enjoy the concert either by standing up close or putting down a blanket for you and your bae. Blankets are available for purchase if you forgot yours!

Fortune Telling
Love fortune telling, of course! Find out your romance's future from famed fortune teller Geneva Godiva! She won't give any truly negative fortunes of course, it's a positive occasion, so if your outlook is bleak she might try to phrase it more positively or offer advice to turn things toward the positive. Feel free to pick your own fortune- be it anything from "You might want to see a couples counselor to make it through a rough patch, darlings" or "I see triplets!" or just "Wowie, I can see clearly now- your rain is gone! Looking good for this next year, sweetie pies!" Enjoy and have fun, the accuracy of the reading is up to you, but she won't tell you that a relationship is going to sink at any point. She'll use crystal ball, tarot, whichever- but not seance or anything. It's happy lovey-dovey fortune telling!

End of the Night
The festival itself was timed with the arrival of Genessia's firefly season. The first night of fireflies rising coincides with Valentine's Day this year, so if you stay until the end of the festival, you'll be able to see the fields light up with little glowing bugs. It's a romantic sight, best seen with your partner.

[video / day before the festival]

Happy Valentines Day, Genessia~!!!

Nico here! I hope you're all doing well~. With Valentines Day coming up, I'm sure everyone is working hard to express their love. I support you all 100%! Good luck~!

If you don't have someone to spend Valentines with, though, then Nico Ni has a Neat-o Ni surprise for you! Your very own idols, Eli and Nico, are going to have a special concert tomorrow~! Please come visit us! I'm going to do my best to keep a ~BIG~ smile on your face! Let's have fuun!

[action - genessia city / day before the festival]

[Nico can be found wandering the city throughout the day, doing some last minute preparations for her concert. She's handing out colourful flyers for her concert, and if you aren't careful then she'll approach you with a big smile.]

Are you going to the Festival of Amore tomorrow? Please come see our concert, nico~!

[ Wait, are your eyes deceiving you? Are you seeing Noah smile... in a non arrogant way?

Right now, she's holding a small bunny, her gift from Terra, while surrounded by several other bunnies. A closer look at her surroundings reveals why: she's sitting in the Bunny Poof Cafe. ]

I should be irritated with some of the people here who never pointed me in the right direction [ Her... bright green ears flash a weak yellow for a moment. ] but that's speaking from 20/20 hindsight, so I'll let that go. Apparently, this cafe is filled with bunnies. More than I've seen in Camp de Fae! It's extremely relaxing. There might not be a lot of bunnies in all the cities, but I've found a paradise here. I still owe my thanks to those who helped me... Terra in particular. My new charge can have more friends now!

I'm somewhat thankful that the UPRPRC group that lurked around after my disappearance isn't here.

I don't think I'm going to have a date for this... Valentine's day, but you know what? Since I'm here, I don't really care. I'm at peace. You lot can have your fun elsewhere.

[ If you were hoping for her ears to give lie to that statement though... you're out of luck. Noah truly is serene at this moment. ]

On the other hand, I see that quite a few of you have very colorful body parts. Better hope that whoever you have a crush on doesn't recognize the shade of magenta on your body somewhere~

Hihihihi~

It's so beautiful~!

[That was all that was said, the device in a moment of pitch darkness. So it was hard to tell just what exactly was beautiful, but it was clearly obvious it was Winry's voice coming through the device, after a moment or Winry appears on the feed. She seemed excited over something. It wasn't long before she turned around and now showing what appeared to be a prosthetic.]

Have you seen the craftsmanship on this baby? The design of it and how much time and effort they must have put into such a thing.

[She moved in, kneeling down slightly to take a closer look, she's gotta admire it up close. or at least as close as she could get considering it was on the other side of a shop window. It wasn't long before the young woman was talking to herself again.]

I wonder what materials they used. Was it a metal, or was it something else? How is it's durability? What can it withstand? Weight, weather... [She gives out a little squee of delight before she runs over to the next window looking in.]

Don't you think they are just works of art?  [She smiled slightly, she seems to have calmed down for a bit at least in voice as she turns the feed to show her face. She was smiling.]

I came to Nova City to look at how advanced things were here in the art of prosthetics or automail as I know it. There is so much I could learn here in both the medical field and this... a lot of what I have seen...Has me wondering a lot more. More so in the field of the supernatural and learning about their medical needs.

[She was going somewhere with it.]

So I am thinking of going to Everglade, which means I need to ask someone to take me there since I've been told to do that. [And she listened, she is asking. After a moment she looked over to the side. her calmness really was short lived however when she rushes over to yet another window before the feed turns off.]
