[MINI EVENT] ☆T A N A B A T A☆

[ulternnpc]

Those from the four regions of Kanto, Johto, Hoenn and Sinnoh will be very familiar with the sight of bamboo stalks that are left outside decorated with colorful and sparkly paper decorations. There are people gathering around, helping one another put up paper amulet of varying colors to tie around the bamboo branches. On each amulet is a single wish that’s been handwritten by someone.

One can only hope that their wish will be heard…

At night, there’s a surprise to be found: an alternate colored Jirachi is out dressed in what’s clearly a handmade costume. Around its neck, is a colorful paper chain made of sparkly origami paper.



Not only has Jirachi come to grant wishes, Miniors are out and about bright and colorful. They’ll be dancing around seemingly trying to invite people to come join them in the festivities.

((OOC: Happy Tanabata! In the morning is a general mingle post. But as the evening sets in and Jirachi appears, it will start granting the wish written on your amulet whether big or small -- wealth, a long life, or maybe a way to return home. You're free to catch Miniors too, and there's a slightly better chance of encountering a shiny one as well. Just be careful of the ones still in their shell or you might just get a rather explosive surprise...

This event can take place at any town, so feel free to specify a location!))

[Upset him?] I'm fine. [Harshly spoken, defensively.
His first instinct was, of course, to retreat into himself and withdraw from everything and everyone else, but, Volo's praising his photography, his hobby that didn't mean very much to most people and he described them so warmly.

He could, cynically, think the glowing praise was simply because Volo was given free prints, but no, Volo's new to this time and this world and he seemed genuinely appreciative of it all, enthralled, even.

Trip's stubborn reticence gave way to a more genuinely moved and surprised expression at Volo's last question. He watched him, rather owlishly, with wide eyes, but didn't know what to say. The cynical part of him insisted all of this concern was for show or out of a sense of being indebted to him, not genuine care... but even if they were, it wasn't common that someone would ask.]
