⇨ WISMUTH

[ringleaders]

Who: Everyone!
When: S2:D6-D11
Where: Wismuth and the Carnival Grounds
What: The carnival enjoys a few days in Wismuth, a coastal city on this planet's version of the American east. However, there are a few things very unique about this version of the planet...
Warnings: The usual, wholesome fun.

PILLAR OF CREATION↴ Upon arriving, things in Wismuth will seem pretty peaceful. It's a massive city, with no shortage of things going on, but things like violent crime and homelessness are at an all time low. You can wander the streets without much scrutiny, presumed to just be tourists, and most people here come across as helpful and friendly. ► VIBRANCY: The main thing that sets this planet apart is its vibrancy - AKA, the raw creative energy its filled with, flowing from its status as a Pillar of Creation. There is no literal pillar, but Wismuth and its planet is a place where Creation's energy comes through strongest. As a result, everything here feels somehow more real, more intense in a way that's hard to put a finger on. Life is abundant, and its bleeds through in every sensation. ► ATTRACTIONS: There are plenty of things to see while going around the city. First and foremost, there is a lovely beach area bordering the ocean, and a number of tourist aimed attractions built around it. There are giant malls, movie theaters, live stage performances, museums and all kinds of other points of cultural interest. Anything you can do in a big city you can do here, but better. ► ALLOWANCES: The Ringmaster will be giving everyone a reasonable amount of local currency for a few days on the town. You can't make any massive acquisitions with it, but it's more than enough to eat out, see some shows, go to the beach, and whatever you like. You can feel free to pick up some casual supplies, like mundane clothing and souvenirs. There will be more given out later, after the performance week. ► PERFORMANCE: Performance week is starting early this time, after only a couple days of exploration. When the carnival has already been on vacation for a month, the Ringmaster figures they may as well get right to it, and then do more touring afterwards. Members of the local populace will find themselves in the carnival once performances begin, dazzled by the other worldly sights. Magic doesn't seem to exist here, despite the fact that it will flow easier for people bringing it from other worlds.

"Oh, yeah, there's been a lot of them. Couple people recurring, mostly new... I'm dodging them right now. Apparently Wismuthites find me irresistible," he says, quirking his eyebrows, then smiling and rolling his eyes. Julien's been getting better at not getting cornered, though he refuses to not walk in public in order to avoid them. He's not afraid of people who want to pet him, he just wants to keep moving and not get swarmed.

Julien makes a mildly rude noise and flicks a palp her way. "If you insist! One favor upcoming, of roughly equal value to spending a comfortable hour or two painting intricacies. Coming from someone who can multitask like no one else." He's even been getting better at it since arriving at the Carnival. Initially if he'd spoken to someone while his other body was out and about it was with more of a distracted air. If nothing else, the manor and the soul poisons had forced him to work on that.

"That's terrible..!! Ooof..! We'll need to talk to Patrol, or maybe one of the bouncers..." Ahhhh, she's already muttering about preventing this...

But anyway. "Hmmm! Good, good! Favors are important!" she replies, quietly ignoring any sarcasm there was or might have been. "Which means now we just need to look at designs, and what to apply for the design, and-"

She's quite excited about this, isn't she.

"Well, I went and bought this cape that lets me walk up walls. That helps if I stick closer to buildings. With tents, well, I'm pretty big and heavy, so I worry about what would happen." Julien shrugs, because of course he'll downplay this. "People've been pretty good about helping me out, but like, we won't be here long."

"I wish I could offer traditional mehendi designs, but neither of us is Indian, and I think you've found your inner light already," he deadpans. "I can draft up a few general concepts if you'd like, but your own ideas are important too, obviously."

[fortuneglass]

"HEHH!? Seriously!?" She knew you bought some weird shit for Wardrobe, but she didn't know about the Weird Shit for. Well. Him. "You can just sit there then..? ...Ah, but that's a good point, you could just break the tent doing that...unless maybe the magic does something to your weight..."

One can smell the experimental pondering. As it is. "Mnnh, it feels like it'd be a bit weird, if we went with traditional designs anyway. We're not very 'traditional', I don't think..."

That said. "...If it's not too much though, I like surprises~"

[espigeon]

"It might! I have no idea how it works. If my weight was just hanging off the walls something would probably break anyway, I haven't always picked particularly sturdy walls." People rarely construct walls with the intention of having someone heavy put their full weight on them. "But like, I run up walls already, so it almost makes sense to stop half way. Tent walls... well, I could always try one of the big ones, it wouldn't hurt it."

Wing assisted incline running with something his size is really something to see.

"Heh. Something to think about!" He'll have to consider something nice. Not full body. Hmm.

[insidescoop]

"Maybe the obstacle course would be a good place to test that... ...Or at least the stationary parts, to start..." Ah, well. For now, there's nothing to do but 'keep things in mind', so she just beams.

"Maybe I'll come up with a design while I'm at it~ We'll have to see!"
