THE TANABATA FESTIVAL

[ It's a breezy summer day on Isle Bermuda. There are gulls crying, a few lazy clouds, and plenty of sunshine with a cooling wind.

Today also happens to be a special event! It's time for Tanabata, and seemingly out of nowhere, a thicket of bamboo has sprung up in the trees near the shoreline. Speaking of the beach, a festival seems to be underway; there are lanterns strung up, fresh food, and plenty of goat-people selling fresh food and games.

The festival goes long into the evening, so don't miss it!

The tradition of Tanabata, as you will notice, is to write a wish on a tag and hang it from a bamboo tree. So make a wish and hope for the best! ♥ And what's this? A mysterious, female voice is drifting along, carried by the wind; ]


The bamboo leaves rustle,
shaking away in the eaves.
The stars twinkle
on the gold and silver grains of sand.
The five-colour paper strips
I have already written.
The stars twinkle,
they watch us from heaven.

[Yakui has absolutely no idea how she ended up in this festival, but she is so totally down for it. She's already written up a tag...

... Of course, what's written on the tag is a prescription for a heavy drug with hallucinatory side-effects, with a scrawled note on the bottom that says only "Peyote!" The addled-looking maid is pretty cheerily hanging it up now... on the wrong tree.

Hey.

[Robo-Ky holds up a small plastic bag with some sort of dried plant matter.]
maidofecstasy: (Get up and tell you where to go)

Whoa, dude. That trash compactor is talking to me.
404_knight: Dramatic lighting from below to display his evil intents (Bwahahaha)

You ever seen a trash compactor dress this sharp?

I've seen some pretty fancy ones... Kikai dresses pretty sharp - oh wait. She's a robot, though.

OH! Hey, are you a robot?

Outstanding deduction.

You want some of this or not?


[He shakes the bag a little.]
maidofecstasy: (Blowin my mind)

No thanks, man, I had seaweed for breakfast.

[She takes it anyway, of course, and puts it in her pouch that's already filled with pills and syringes and other unsafe-looking things.]

Enjoy that. No use to me.
