just gotta ignite the light and let it shine

Who: Everyone who's stupid enough to show up for this, because legal drinking ages are for people from a different century/planet.
When: Afternoon/Evening, Day 30
Where: Lakeshore
What: Local Carnival workers get wasted and set off fireworks by the lake.
Warnings: Carnival shenanigans, ie. booze, drugs, and people getting set on fire probably. Put any tag-specific warnings in your headers!

So, Wismuth happened.

Lambert's pretty willing to bet a good chunk of the Carnival is pretty happy to act like Wismuth didn't happen, but he also doesn't really care about what sorrows people are drowning or not tonight: he knows he needed this drink, and after he'd slept off the immediate exhaustion that came with running around Wismuth for nearly two weeks with the power of Creation more or less constantly burning through him, he's ready to something, anything to feel like himself again.

Fast-forward to the lakeshore. There's a huge bonfire going, a box of assorted fireworks that's been 'liberated' from wherever the hell engineering keeps their supplies, and probably a crate of wine that's going to disappear sooner rather than later. Anything else, someone's going to have to bring themselves.

[Yuusei may be 18 but that's still not a legal drinking age; just a warning!]


START OF THE NOT-PARTY

Yuusei remembers a few things being said to people over Carly's radio. Something about a drink, something about hotsprings, and as Carly occasionally turned to him to explain the formulating gameplan, he found himself being roped into roasting some soybeans for a party of... some sort. Something about "de-stressing," he recalls. Whatever the matter is, Carly insisted that he went with her.

"You're going to be contracted here soon, right?" she said with a luminous grin. "Not everyone gets a chance to meet some of their coworkers ahead of time!"

And now that they're here, he's... not really sure what to do. He admittedly recognises some of the folks around, which surprises him a little bit! As soon as they arrive, though, he feels like he's being left alone as Carly goes to put their roasted soybeans on the tables. She's entrusted him with Nuna for now so he at least has some form of companionship (at least until he works up the guts to go talk to someone).

Yuusei knows there's alcohol here, and he might look into that a little later, but for now he goes to investigate the lake, staring out over its surface. May as well have a seat and adjust to the atmosphere. Who knows, maybe someone'll treat him to a little chat.

In the meantime, Carly's around with snacks, most likely jumping right into the not-festivities for "de-stressing." Well-deserved de-stressing.


MID-PARTY

He's still by the lake once things really start to settle in, but while he was sitting anxiously and contemplating how he might go about doing literally anything at the start, he's now looking much more relaxed, if still quiet and very much keeping to himself. He got his hands on some wine at some point, and he's pretty sure Carly told him to avoid any faerie ale but just a little bit can't hurt right?

The sky is beyond beautiful in this place, and he's happy to stare up at the stars as he lies on the beach with a cup settled carefully in the sand, fingers wrapped around it just in case. It's... nice. So so nice.


[This is mostly for Yuusei, but for the party-start prompt, Carly is also an option to be tagged!]
