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. |

['We' hadn't tried it, but that absolutely implicates 9S as well.] What happened the last time?
no subject
Ummm, well I got really relaxed...
[He wasn't lying about that, at least.]
...So I ended up laughing a lot and lying down on the floor.
[Pod 153 has a recording of it, even! Let's not mention that Cole was totally wigging out during that time, shall we? So he'll just, take a hit of the joint, breathing in the smoke before exhaling a myriad of colours.]
no subject
Syrlya takes a slow inhale, pausing to watch the colors from the smoke before he says anything again.] Should we find a more comfortable place to be if you're going to find your way to the floor regardless?
no subject
[He's absolutely going to fall over.
9S does remember it taking a while for him to start feeling the effects -- which is so weird compared to the drugs he's sampled prior -- but maybe Syrlya would be affected differently? He is a plant of some kind...]
How do you feel?
no subject
He shrugs, blankly slowly as he stares out into space.] Not bad. I suppose you were right about the relaxant...
no subject
9S lets out a burst of laughter that lasts seconds longer than usual.]
Of course! I wouldn't be a very good Scanner if the information I reported back was wrong.
[He holds out the joint for Syrlya, but his knees are bending as he slowly sinks towards the floor. Sitting seems like a better idea than standing.]
no subject
Syrlya takes the joints, fumbling a bit, but before he takes another hit he grabs the edge of the table and leans over to watch 9S go down.] What did you say about--whoa.
[He stops, suddenly, the mirth slipping from his face as he stares forward blankly in confusion. His vision is almost literally swimming, like some sort of distant mirage out of the corners of his eyes. He blinks rapidly to try and clear it, but to no avail.]
no subject
Say about what?
[He adds, sagely--]
You should sit down.
no subject
It's blurry. [He says it dully.] No, that isn't quite right. It's a desert.
no subject
[And to demonstrate what he means by that, 9S flops backwards, lying flat on his back. The coloured smoke swirls above him. Last time he thought they were snakes. He knows better know.]
A desert?
[9S lets out a laugh.]
It can't be a desert. There's no sand!
no subject
He leans forward, squinting at the wall across the room in an attempt to focus on it--oh.
Oh.] Hallucinations?
no subject
You mean the snakes?
[Which he's totally seeing again.]
Oh, they're not real.
[Except this time, Rita isn't here to blow them up if they are real. So... he can't be sure they're not real. That should be more troubling than it is.]
no subject
He stares forward with only mild alarm on his face... and then tips forward with a groan, knocking his forehead into the table.] Of course they're not. How bad is this going to get?
[It's too late for him now.]
no subject
Bad? This isn't bad!
[At least not for him it isn't.]
At least there's no dragons. Cole thought there could be dragons but there's no moon dragons.
no subject
It's still not as bad as 'focus training', and the memory makes him shudder.
But wait.] The Ringmaster is a dragon of some sort, isn't she? [Or turns into one which, frankly, close enough.]
no subject
Isn't she a fae? ...That's not another word for dragon is it?
[Guess who missed out on the cool transformation sequence!?]
no subject
[There's a long pause before ah, right, 9S had missed that whole final scene.] The Prince turned into dust and she turned into a dragon and ate him. So many worlds, I can't keep track of what is and isn't familiar to me.
no subject
...Huh. I wish I saw that.
[A lengthy pause.]
Would you turn into a dragon and eat your enemies if you could?
no subject
no subject
Must be a tough problem if killing can't solve it.
[Seriously, so many of his problems could be solved if the machines just let themselves be exterminated.]
So... what's the problem?
no subject
[He waves his other hand vaguely.] It's a very long story.
[One he's not in the mood to try and sort out right now. Another time, when he's not on drugs.]
