⇨ THE LUNAR SOLSTICE

Who: Everyone!
When: Winter Breaks: Day 6 - Day 25
Where: THE MOON
What: The carnival journeys to one of its moons to celebrate the Lunar Solstice. More information here.
Warnings: Winter fun.

MOON WALKING

The journey to the moon only takes a blink of an eye, but it leaves the carnival far away beneath you. The second moon can be seen on the peripheral, massive compared to its usual view. At least when the holidays start out, there will be no notable wildlife on the moon, though this is something you can talk to the Ringmaster about if you think it needs a change. It sounds like this is the first time she's used it in quite a while - it probably needs some dusting off!

Claim your cabins, and proceed to... well, do whatever you want! There is no rush and little obligation, besides to enjoy yourself. For real, this time. She promises there will be no vampires. Or, at least, none that don't already work for the carnival.

CABINS: Living arrangements are character choice for this event, and there are a variety of cabins of various sizes, mostly built to house 2-6 people, though you can fit more in if you squish. They are all made of wood and of a rustic design - no fancy modern furniture, here! Each building is housed with a fireplace and the needed amenities. You can pick up materials to cook with the private kitchens if you like. Theoretically, you could spend the whole holiday sequestered away, watching the snow fall. Some of them also have outdoor hot tubs available!

ACTIVITIES: Activities are mostly going to be character driven, though there will be some large group games like bingo and maybe a poker tournament happening at some point in one of the festival halls. Otherwise, there is a lot to offer: skiing, snowboarding, hiking, ice sculpting, snowball fights - it goes on! If you'd like to run a winter activity, just let the mods know, and we will get the word out there for you.

FEASTING: Every day isn't a full-out feast because that would get a bit unhealthy, but there will be a number of specific feast events over the holidays where everyone is encouraged to let out their inner hedonist and stuff themselves. There will be one big feast per week, with smaller but also delicious meals offered in between. The feast dates will be B12, B18, and B24. There's also plenty of alcohol available for anyone who wants it.

SHOPPING: As mentioned in the planning post, there is a massive market being run by the World Walker Caravan! The Ringmaster has given everyone 1250 credits to spend on items, but there is a caveat - must spend at least 500 of those credits on gifts for other people. And it better be a good one, if you only buy one! (She will ask that you do not buy her presents, however. She appreciates the sentiment, but it seems sort of silly buying her things with her own money! If you'd like to gift her, please have it be something more personal or handmade, but you are not obligated to get her anything at all.)

TREATMENTS: The beginning of the holidays will also be about the time that the emergency Medical Team will have finalized their treatments for the Prince's poisoning. Watch out for further information on that - and make sure to get treated if you are suffering from petrification or poison induced illness! The holidays will be a lot more fun that way.

I don't know if he'd remember or not. ...But Yuuya said he has Zarc's memories, and he's not crazy....

[There is...a shrug.] ...I think what's important is just....helping him grow up the right way this time. Giving him friends, and people that love him back.

...I don't think Zarc had that, before.

...I think he was alone.

[Yugo is still not one to stop and think, but when he is being serious and reflective- it shows. The synchro teen's perhaps surprisingly calm about the matter, above flashes of other feelings as he thinks back on his preferred choice of actions without the right helping hand being there to smack him.]

.... Well hey, whenever that happens, then yeah- wouldn't be much to worry about besides there being a kid to take care of.

[A pause.]

And that there's some people who need to keep the hell away from him.

Right! [He's agreeing! This is good! This is great! Here she'd been so worried about all of this, honestl-

She blinks.

Well besides Leo I guess there's Yuri.

[He can't really hold back his... irritation toward those two names.]

Only because that guy's a ba-... er... a slimy jerk. Wouldn't want a baby learning things from that kind of person. You know?

[.....Mmmmmmm.....] ....Holding a grudge like that isn't good.... ....but we should probably keep him away from Leo, to keep him safe, it's true.

[....Actually, that in mind-] ...Actually.... ....Maybe, with Yuuri, someone should help him to learn what being 'good' means too. ...So that he can stop what he's doing wrong.

Because if Zarc deserves a real second chance, then obviously Yuri should get one right?

[It's gonna take more than a few words to break this grudge.]

Sure, he can have it- but that doesn't mean I'm gonna like him.

Umnhhh.... ...Well, it's sort of that.... ...but mostly, it wouldn't be a good idea to just kill him or something like that...it's better to at least try to fix things, I think.

[That said.] You don't have to..! But.... ....You saying it's good to give them another chance at all is more than what Yuuya said, though.
