[Video]

[While she's out shopping, Erza sees the after-effects of the recent nightmare attack on the community, and she has a sudden burst of inspiration for how she can help. Wasting no time, she turns on her video feed, feeling more confident with facing people directly rather than writing her ideas down or typing them out.]

Given everything that's happened lately, I feel like a change of plan is in order. Lately, I've been sticking with battling simulations in Holoplaza, but it's not quite the same as sparring against actual people. I figure that, in case something like this happens again, [And odds are, it will.] we could all use practice defending ourselves against all sorts of weapons, powers, and abilities. No defense is impenetrable; even the strongest magical barrier is completely useless if someone can negate or ignore magic. What I'm trying to say is, if anyone wants to spar, I'm more than willing to.

Also, if anyone wants lessons in using any kind of melee weapon, I'm available. [She summons each type of weapon to float behind her as she mentions them, resulting in some odd looks from passers-by.] Swords, knives, axes, clubs, spears, staffs... You name it, and I have it or can at least provide some advice.

I'm mostly self-taught, so you'll need to go to someone who specializes in using a weapon for any detailed information, but I can at least give you a place to start. If something like this happens again, I don't want anyone to feel defenseless.

[Once she's finished her message to the general public, she sends a private message to her girlfriend. Seeing as she's still in public, she chooses her words carefully in case she's overheard.]

[Video - private to Mirajane]

Don't think I've forgotten about you, darling. I'm ready to spar wherever and whenever you want. ...though we should probably take this somewhere private, given what we talked about. It could get pretty... destructive. [With her armours being the main things that will probably be destroyed in this case.]

See you soon, honey bunny! You're going down!

[It was a rather mixed message, but given how much their former rivalry played a role in their love life, it suited the two of them quite well.]

[Action - Fayren]

[With that out of the way, she decides to go back to her original purpose for being out and about - shopping for flowers to spruce up the guild, now that spring has arrived. She doesn't want to leave it all up to Mirajane and Mavis. Unfortunately, she doesn't have much of a green thumb, but she refuses to let that stop her!

...even though she has no idea what she's looking for. She'll be back and forth between Fairy Haven and any flower or gardening stores in Fayren. Some times, she'll be analyzing the contents of the shelves closely, uncertain about what to get. Other times, she'll be gathering up supplies seemingly at random, figuring that they must have a need for most of it. Either way, she could probably use some advice.]

I'd like to pose a hypothetical question to all of you, if I may. { Zeref is seated somewhere in Fairy Haven, an open book in his lap. He nonchalantly turns a page, and continues. } Suppose a country in your world was ruled by a powerful, immortal wizard. There would be no need for a designated heir, right? Even if one were produced, it would be a meaningless title, as nobody expected the ruler to die. The citizens don't mind; they're happy, the country is prosperous, and they, in fact, love their ruler and think of them as a hero.

But suppose there were no heirs. The ruler never intended for the country to outlive their immortality, or perhaps just didn't care if it did or not. What do you think would become of that country or its citizens?

{ It's... something he's been thinking about more and more lately, having lived in Fayren for as long as he has. }

[Action - locked to Mirajane]

[Erza wakes up in the exact same spot that she fell asleep - in her bed, with her arms wrapped around Mirajane as they held each other tightly. Last night had been better than anything described in Erza's extensive collection of romance novels - Erza had been hoping to save their first time for a special occasion, their one year anniversary as a couple, and it certainly paid off. While she'd likely be wearing sweaters for the next few days, and she'd definitely need a new bed (unsurprisingly, putting two of Fairy Tail's strongest mages in one room is going to result in something getting broken), it was more than worth it.

Not wanting to wake her girlfriend, Erza manages to untangle her limbs from Mirajane's body. Getting out of bed, she exquips into a bathrobe and heads out to the small kitchen in her apartment. It's not much - only really good for cooking simple meals - but Erza wants Mirajane to wake up to breakfast. She figures that Mira looks after the guild's meals, so it's time for someone to wait on her for a change.]

[Video]

[The video feed shows Erza and Mirajane sitting at a table and enjoying their breakfast. Mirajane's bright and chipper as always, while Erza's trying to be serious about this. (though she's not as serious as usual, given Mira's presence)]

((OoC: Erza's comments are in red, while Mirajane's are in silver))

With these snow monsters roaming the cities, we want everyone to stay safe out there.

You know, it might be tempting to have a snowball fight with them, but there's no telling what they're capable of. So please make sure to buddy up out there.

If you know anyone who can use fire-related abilities, stick with them - obviously, fire works well against these creatures.

Or you can always come to Fairy Haven if you're in Fayren!

If you don't have the option of defending yourself, try to stay as warm as possible. Maybe gather with your friends or family near a roaring fire.

This time of year is great for cuddling up with some hot cocoa!

Maybe with some marshmallows, or cream?

Hmm... I wonder where I can get some cream?

[Erza blushes a little at that remark, but Mira had brought up a good point earlier.] Though you're right - this is a good time of year to cuddle up by the fireplace.

Ooh! Maybe we could bake some Christmas cookies!

[Erza lights up at the mention of sweets.] With lots of icing?

[Mirajane giggles, expecting a response like that, before leaning over to kiss Erza on the cheek.] Of course.

[Before the two of them get lost in their own little world, Erza realizes that they're still recording and cuts the video feed.]

[Nova City was still a strange place to Erza; she felt far outside of her element when she visited it. Still, if there's one thing that she could easily adapt to, it was the Holodeck - holograms might not be the same as the real thing, but it worked well for training, especially once she learned how to create holograms from her memories when preparing for a date with Mirajane.

Today, Erza decided to test herself, facing off against any opponents who had given her a real challenge in the past. She would only leave out two of her tougher foes - Mirajane (because she could spar with Mira whenever she wanted) and Erza Knightwalker (because she was convinced that the fight with her alternate universe self would inevitably end in a draw).

She figured that she'd take breaks to eat or heal up, but otherwise, she'd spend the morning training and be done by the afternoon. However, what started as a fun way to test herself gradually turned into a grueling day-long gauntlet. She'll still be taking breaks after each attempt, but as she gets farther and farther along, she refuses to surrender until she's overcome the trials that she's placed for herself.

When her first battle involves a swordswoman who can attack faster than the eye can follow, it's clear that Erza's in for a rough time. To Erza's relief, she can actually follow Ikaruga's attacks now, so after a few attempts where she overwhelms Ikaruga with her stronger or faster armours, she focuses on learning to defend herself against the mercenary's attacks. Her next opponent, Azuma, isn't the type to go down easy, especially since Erza sets the fight in a forest where he can control and draw energy from all of the surrounding trees. Still, she didn't set this up to go easy on herself.

After the previous two fights, the fight against Kagura was a lot more relaxed. Erza didn't mind if she lost, and she saw it as a chance to improve her own skill with a sword. The two were evenly matched, and while Erza would prefer to have the real Kagura here, even this sparring session is a nice reminder of home.

All of that goodwill goes out the window for her next scenario, where she's up against the demon Kyouka. It's clear that Erza still holds a significant grudge for her treatment at the demon's hands, and any loss is met with a frustrated scream. Whether Kyouka was in her base form or her Etherious form, where her strength increases exponentially and she can increase her foe's pain sensitivity to the point of making a gust of air feel crippling, it was anyone's guess as to who would come out on top.

( Her remaining fights became increasingly difficult (this content hasn't aired in the anime yet) )

So she keeps trying, despite losing...] Again! [...and losing...] Again! [...and losing.] AGAIN!!

((OoC: Feel free to have your characters spectate, help Erza out in any of the seven scenarios, or introduce training scenarios of their own!))

Masquerade! Paper faces on parade
Masquerade! Hide your face so the world will never find you
Masquerade! Every face a different shade
Masquerade! Look around, there's another mask behind you




Welcome
Though the evening outside is chilly, there’s nothing but warmth and lively atmosphere inside. The room itself (the ballroom atop the self proclaimed ‘most romantic and luxurious’ Genessian getaway) is almost blinding, glittering with gold from floor to ceiling, save for the towering framed windows that provide a beautiful sight of the city below. Tables are scattered here and there around the perimeter should attendees wish to rest their feet, but the centerpiece of the evening seems to be the massive, sparkling chandelier casting its warm, golden glow over a rather extensive dance floor. One end of the room is reserved for the band, poised just near the hearth featuring a roaring fire, while the other showcases a grand staircase on which one may make their entrance, should they choose to explore the upper lofts that surround the room beforehand.

Early in the evening, once the room has begun to fill, a couple steps up to welcome everyone on behalf of Genessia’s Performing Arts Center and the cast of their most recent musical. While the event is free, and they are delighted to be able to share a magnificent evening of splendor with everyone, they do wish to make everyone aware that should they choose to donate tonight, be it through benevolent gift or through the auction or gambling tables, all proceeds will be donated to the Red House Foundation- more specifically, Genessia’s branch, located in the heart of the city herself.
The call to enjoy the masquerade is punctuated with a deep bow and the swell of the band picking up once more to lead everyone into a night of majestic merriment.


Photos
With numerous celebrities about and the event in full swing, it’s to no one’s surprise that there are photographers practically crawling the place. Fortunately for all, quite a few have been hired by the event planning team and will be snapping moments (both candid and posed) of everyone in attendance. There’s even a designated area with various props to play with and a lovely backdrop doused in gold. These photos can be downloaded from the network later, so take advantage of these professionals, should your heart desire! After all, did one really look their best if there’s no photo to prove it?


Dancing
While there’s certainly no pop star performing and the music is much more classically suited, one will hear a familiar tune more often than not, spun by the tuxedo clad musicians to suit a more modern crowd. It’s upbeat and energetic for the most part, but every so often, they're likely to switch the mood to something much smoother (dare they say, romantic?) to sway to. Instructors are scattered throughout the crowd, should those unfamiliar with the ballroom style wish to learn something new!


Food
A party without food is absurd, regardless of the occasion. Drink flows readily from the bar, and an impressive variation of hors d’oeuvre has been laid out in a brilliant spread on the long tables along the edges of the room. Partake as you will, and leave a donation to show your appreciation if you’re so inspired!


Costume Parade
What’s the point of a masquerade without an outfit promenade? Show off your inspired attire to all who will gaze upon you. The more flamboyant, the more attention your costume will draw, and the more in-character one seems, the more believable the evening will be- Embrace the masks and let loose! Tonight is the night to be whoever (or whatever) your heart desires.


Gambling/Auction
Thanks to the generosity of local businesses, there are multiple donated items on which to bid, ranging from weekend getaways to baskets of sweets to… rather peculiar fashion and odd home decor.
To the right of the auction display, there are multiple gaming tables with waiting croupier, ready to assist those with heavy wallets attempt to woo Lady Luck. The winnings (should there be any) can be kept or donated- the choice is yours.


Gardens
If one finds a need to escape the swirling of dance and swell of the music, the gardens below may serve you well. There’s a lovely courtyard, and just beyond the fountain, a garden maze, well lit for the season with the gentle glow of dazzling lights. Take a stroll alone, or hide away with a lover or confidant, or snag a seat for the fireworks- the choice is yours.


Fireworks
No grand gala ever ended without a burst of excitement to round out the evening. Toward the end of the evening, the sky will be lit with a brilliant display of silvers and golds, all timed perfectly with the band’s final performance. One can watch from the gardens or the rooftop, or, if in need of something more ~private~, the balconies throughout the hotel.



Masquerade! Burning glances, turning heads
Masquerade! Stop and stare at the sea of smiles around you
Masquerade! Grinning yellows, spinning reds
Masquerade! Take your fill, let the spectacle astound you

((ooc: Questions? PM this journal or poke dovefire on Plurk! Have Fun!))

Okay, so, everyone done turning into monsters? Guessing random crap tends to happen every month. Hopefully nobody turns into a turkey this week.

[Because Homura might be tempted to cook one.]

Anyway, before someone whines about another garden gnome or a bush that has an extra branch, figured I could ask a question:

What should be valued more? Strength, or friendship?

Odd question, but it might help me know what kind of people I am dealing with. You know, without constantly listening to the network. [Or spying on people.] Also, it's a trick question, so actually think before answering.

[Nearly cost her a friendship to figure it all out.]

[Video]

[The video starts off by focusing on Erza's face, with her expression as serious as it almost always is.]

Given the time of year that we're in, I have an important question to ask everyone.

[Her expression softens a little, as she starts to feel silly about asking this.] What are some good Halloween costumes for couples? I'm sure Mira and I can come up with some ideas, and we have plenty of costumes, but outside input couldn't hurt.

[She holds up the camera so that Mirajane's in the shot, seeing as she's busy working at the bar.] My girlfriend's the one with white hair. I figure she'll look good in anything, but that might help with suggestions.

[Action]

[Once she's gotten some answers, Erza can be found in one of several places:

-in the Fairy Tail guild - between getting blood bags for the newly-vampirized Mavis and spending time with Mirajane, she finds plenty of ways to keep herself busy

-patrolling Fayren - with so many people being transformed recently, she sees it as her duty as a deputy guardian to make sure that people get what they need, like different food sources or small changes to their living conditions.]

Video

[ Ayame appears to be in a quiet place in Fayren, with stone steps leading to a Japanese-styled walled gate. Much like an entrance to a Shinto shrine. She turns around with a smile at the camera that's being held telekinetically ]

Good morning. With the recent events in Everglade and among others, I figured many of you could use a break to rest and recover. My name is Ayame, and this week I have returned into business and decided to pick up where the Amagi Inn had left off, and create my own safe haven. Welcome to Amatsu!

[ She presents the gate with a dramatic gesture of her arm, causing the rolled textile pillars to light up, showing a fountain by the entrance. ]

It's a traditional Japanese-styled inn with the aim to help you relax and feel rejuvenated, should you feel the need to get away from stressful city life. We are here in the middle of Fayren's woods-

[ She didn't even pause as she creates a portal off-handedly. Which she goes through along with the camera. The wind blows in her hair as soon as she crosses that cleft in space, and the camera angle adjusts to show that she's actually flying without any means of propulsion. Over her left is the inn itself in all it's wonder, built on the slope of a hill with three floors. There's a great river flowing out to the ocean where there's a beach near the inn's grounds ]

-far from any noise and troubles. We have plenty of hot-spring baths, spa treatments, dining options, and suites to offer. There are even natural wonders to explore. And we are currently hiring! So please-

[ She creates another portal, heading to the outside of the main entrance where there's a peaceful garden and koi pond, silent with only the sound of chirping birds and gently rustling autumn leaves ]

-if you are interested, we would love you being a part of our team, or to even at least give us a visit. There's a carriage service that takes you from Fayren to the inn. We promise you will enjoy your stay.

[ She gives a bow before the video ends, but not before giving directions to said carriage service ]

(OOC: There's a top level comment of Action prompts for Ayame within, but feel free to make your own for others to tag into. Questions about the inn can be sent to me via PM. Enjoy!)

[With hero lessons being held at Fairy Haven, Erza feels inspired to dig out an outfit that she hasn't worn in a long time. Normally, Genessia knows her as "mild-mannered" mage Erza Scarlet, but when the time comes to strike fear into the hearts of evil-doers, she dons her legendary outfit and becomes...

Fairy Woman!

Armed with the strength of a hundred men! Able to leap onto roofs in a single bound! Fairy Woman can be found all over Fayren...

-getting cats out of trees (by chopping down the trees)

-helping old ladies across the street (by carrying them on her back)

-stopping crimes (that one's pretty much the same as normal, though she'll stick more to hand-to-hand combat)

The disguise isn't exactly foolproof (she already patrols Fayren on a regular basis), but she still finds it fun.]

Here comes Fairy Woman! Yeah!

A [Video/Open to all]

[Mavis is sitting by the lake in Fayren.]

August is a great month of the year, isn't it?

[She sounds dreamy, and she might be blushing a little.]

I would have liked to be able to tell him that.

[She suddenly realizes the feed is open. She blinks and then simply smiles.] I've heard people celebrate anniversaries by offering something that corresponds to the number of years. Like... 50 years corresponds to gold, 60 years correspond to diamonds,... But I couldn't find a book about it.

Could one of you help me figure out what 3 years mean?


B ( [Text message - Private to all Fayren deputies + Moon Knight] )


C ( [Action - Open to all Fairy Haven residents/employees/regulars and to Aizawa, Bakugou and whoever they decide to bring with them] )

Who: Ayame Sasaki, her CR, friends of her CR, and anybody who so happens to run into them. Basically OTA
What: Ayame invites her friends (off-screen) for some picnic and chill
When: July 23 - July 27
Where: Tokyo Subarchway
Warnings: None, but would adjust if needed

--

July 23 - Lunchtime - Picnic:

[ It was a hot day in Tokyo, with temperatures reaching in the high 90s with high humidity. But fortunately Ayame manages to make things bearable for this special day, tinkering with the local weather just a bit to make the temperatures perfect for some time outdoors: covering the sun with some clouds and . Setting up at Shinjuku Gyoen - a popular park in the middle of the city, Ayame finds the perfect spot underneath the shade of a tall tree where she places two mats on the grass with baskets and coolers full of food and drinks that she yanks through some cleft out of thin air. With her are her three pets: a large wolfdog named Himiko who is happily prancing around in the shade, and two cats Hibiki and Sisko who just seem interested in the baskets they're pawing at.

Ayame left a portal to her exact location for her friends to easily access whenever they enter the subarchway, so they wouldn't have to travel far or get lost. But this means others get to see this portal too and enter at their own leisure should they be curious. If they ever want to see the city, there's always time for that later. In the meantime, Ayame would greet them warmly while Himiko perks up to see who it is. The dog barks loudly in greeting making Ayame grunt in warning to the dog not to be overly enthusiastic. Taking some packaged food out from what seems like a bottomless basket and her back turned to the portal, Ayame invites kindly anyone to join her on the mat, whether they be a friend or a stranger. ]

Ah, hello. Are you hungry? Thirsty? Sit down if you'd like. I might have gone a bit overboard so I bought too many...

[ Ayame turns, smiling kindly at whoever enters the portal with a sheepish hint on her features. Tucking a wisp of her hair behind her ear, Ayame relaxes on the mat alongside her pets. Everyone is free to choose from a wide variety of boxed lunches before them! ]

July 24th-27th - Anytime - All over Tokyo

[ Picnics aren't your character's style? That's fine! Ayame would be available all week and even passed that. She might actually live in here instead, so she can be found in different places. There's scenic places to have a pleasant stroll in, visit, take pictures, go shopping or dining! The list goes on and on, so for plotting hit me up with a PM or at Oksy or just make your own starter if you have an idea! ]

Action - Locked to her old CR

[ It felt like another one of her bad dreams. Opening her eyes to see an eerie familiar sight of the Bay, with herself sealed tight within the pod. The scent of the cavernous dome she steps out into brought the memories of her previous stay like flashes in her eyes. Waddling through the water to get to the exit, Ayame shields her eyes from the sunlight bearing down from above. The summer heat instantly bombards her with humidity the instant the hologram plays. Seeing the familiar figure greeting her as another newcomer got a sigh out of Ayame. Her first thought was to check the phone she was issued with, and check the Memoria Park and see who has come home and which of her friends remain. Her fingers traced on the names she recognized, particularly Yuyuko Saigyouji. It stung to think she is no longer around, but she choose to hide her mourning for Yuyuko to reunite with people she knew.

Using her powers to teleport to their places of work or frequent haunt in all the five cities, one by one. Ayame appears clad in an elegant white sundress with a pair of smooth framed sunglasses on her head. She always dressed to impress; and this time around is no different. Appearing like a ghost, Ayame can be seen leaning casually on a random wall or pillar, the sight of her old friends in person brought a genuine smile on her face. ]

Well you seem to be doing great.

[ She broadens her smile once their eyes meet her's. Her shoulders shrug lightly as a small chuckle slips her grin, adding in an ironic joke ]

Surprise.

--

Video - Public - Forward dated to July 7th

[ In the morning of the next day after she reunited with her comrades, Ayame feels recharged of her energy enough to have some left for socializing. She can be found in a quaint cafe punnily called D Cups, with a small glass bottle of cold brew coffee with a twirly straw. With a small wave at the camera and a composed expression, she was eager to meet new faces. Maybe this would help her decide what to do now that she's back. ]

Hello, Genessia. My name is Ayame, and around six months ago when I was sent back home. Now it decided to bring me back for reasons unknown, I'm just here to say welcome to anybody who recently found themselves spirited away in this world, and hello to anybody I didn't have a chance to meet in my previous stay. I may have just came back, but I consider myself a local by now. So I'm hoping to meet any of you. I still have enough bills to pay for a coffee if you want a cup.

[Action - Fairy Haven]

[Erza had been shocked by the news that some bakers' children had tampered with the store's food, but when nothing had happened over the past few days, she assumed that she must have gotten lucky and dodged that bullet.

So, of course, when she woke up this morning, Erza suddenly found it very hard to see. Anyone in Fairy Haven would likely hear her stumbling around the dorm or courtyard and yelling in frustration before she finally makes it into the main building of the guild. She tries to brush her hair out of her face, but she looks more like a red haystack than a person, and rather frustratingly, her hair keeps settling back into place, or she keeps stepping on it.]

When I get my hands on those kids...

[Normally, once someone cuts her hair, that would be the end of it. ...Unfortunately, given how many sweets Erza tends to eat, this problem will reappear soon enough.]

[Action - Fayren]

[Erza's first stop had been the bakery responsible for this, so she could teach the pranksters a lesson in discipline. For some mysterious reason, they were nowhere to be found, so Erza can be found all around Fayren, either searching for them, or buying more sweets (clearly not having learned her lesson) or weapons.

...Also, her hair may spontaneously grow several inches in the middle of all of this. She'll do her best to keep it from returning to Cousin It levels, but this is going to be an issue for a while yet.]

[Action]

[It's a little overcast in Fayren, but that's not going to deter Erza from her self-appointed mission! She's never been on a picnic before (at least, not one that wasn't interrupted by bandits), and as far as she's concerned, spring should provide the best picnic weather.

Even if that's not the case in Fayren, there's still four other cities, so she's confident that she'll find a place that works.

The armoured woman will be making her way to various places that sell food - she's not entirely sure what to serve on a picnic, though she has some of the basics down, and with so many cultures here, she wants to try new types of food as well.]

Hmm... I wonder if this would go well with sandwiches... [Erza can be found throughout Fayren and Genessia City, examining an exotic array of foods while carting around an increasingly ridiculous amount of cooking supplies.]

[Private Video to Mirajane]

[Once Erza's finished shopping, she sends a video to Mirajane, with the massive cart piled with food and cooking supplies visible in the background.]

It's a wonderful day in Genessia City - would you like to go for a picnic? [Was there a slight echo effect when she said picnic? ...It's probably nothing.] I've found a park that would be just perfect for it!

[As the feed turns on Mavis has a very serious look on her face. She's definitely in City Guardian mode.]

This is Mavis Vermillion, City Guardian of Fayren.

I'd like to ask all citizens of Fayren, especially non mages, to avoid crossing the forest on their own until further notice. The presence of a dragon skeleton has been reported. Its origin and intentions are unknown for now. It appears to be vulnerable to magic bolts but it will attack you if provoked.

Please get in touch with me or one of my Deputies [Erza Scarlet, Alice Margatroid, Qubine and Konoka Konoe] if you have any information to provide on this dragon skeleton, or if you're in need of help. In addition, Fairy Tail's healer, Tatlyn, will be on call if anyone happens to get injured in the vicinity of Fairy Haven.

Thank you for your attention.

[Mavis pauses, waiting a few seconds before switching subject.]

Also, I've been wondering... do any of you know anything about Black Magic? And what difference do you make between Dark Magic and Black Magic, if any?

[She's about to cut the feed when the noise of shattered glass is heard in her background. Mavis quickly turns around... and rolls her eyes. She picks up a copy of the Genessia Tribune.]

...Time to read the news, I guess.

[Feed ends.]

( [Private Message to Fayren Deputy Guardians] )
( [Private Message to Zeref] )

Who? Erza Scarlet, and open to anyone else
What? hunting for the Air Knight
When? April 1st
Where? Fayren

Erza had two reasons for wandering around Fayren in one of her many bunny suits. For starters, it was Easter, so she might as well dress for the occasion.

As well, there's a gang of criminal mages who are using magically enhanced armour in their crimes, and she'd rather not get attacked by another bounty hunter who assumes that she's part of that group. In her mind, wearing an outfit like this will make her less likely to stand out.

Not noticing the stares or confused whispers, she decides to ask around local shops to find out if they had heard anything.

"I see... Thank you, that's very helpful." While she hadn't gotten anything concrete yet, she at least had a general idea where this 'Air Knight' tended to turn up. He was a tricky one to nail down, fitting his element of choice, but Erza was confident that it would be over quickly once she caught him.
