⇨ 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.

She giggles into Tyki's shoulder. "Naw, bein' smart with my siblings jus' got me a slap 'cross the mouth. S' not nice." But she does it anyway... "Maybe yer righ' though. I like, I like that I always tell people exactly how I feel! Then nobody has ta guess how 'm feelin'."

The comment from Tyki doesn't go unnoticed, but she's very focused on being walked through a wall right now. For a few moments, Doll is certain he's doing this for a laugh, that he's going to smack right into the wall and laugh about it being a joke for her benefit. But then they walk through the wall.

Doll looks very startled and begins looking around the cabin. No sign of Tamaki, but this is definitely where they're staying-- it has all the hallmarks of two teenagers living alone while on vacation. "Wow... wow!" she shouts, amazed.

"You won't have to worry about that with me," and he means it. Hurting a kid just was uncalled for and growing up in an atmosphere where one always had to be perfect, he can understand a good slap in the mouth. In his new family, things were calm and loving. It's how a family should be. "It makes it easier that way than hiding."

His grin spreads wide when it seems like she's enjoying herself. He was never the one to really need to impress anyone but when he wanted to show off he did like the audience. It's why his performances were always flashy and over the top as a magician.

"Glad you're pleased," he says with a hint of amusement. He's heading towards the bedrooms and looking for the one that looks inhabited. Time to put this little lady to bed.

The one in the loft level seems to be the one they've been using, if the nest of blankets is any indication. But there appears to be no Tamaki, despite Doll calling out into the empty cabin.

"Aw, he didn' see your trick," she says with a pout. Just a few minutes ago she was nervous that Tamaki would see her inebriated, but apparently it's now a shame he wasn't home to witness Tyki coming through a wall with Doll on his back. Logic.

He'll make his way up there with slow steps as not to sway her too much. He's in no hurry to put her down as he could lift a few tons and be fine with the weight. Not to mention he is used to this with his niece at home who could fall asleep against him at night while he was reading.

Once he does get to the bed he will turn around and set her down on it with a chuckle, "There is always time for that later."
