Who: Everyone!
What: Tanabata Festival
When: All day July 5
Where: The Near Shore
Summary: The Heavens are throwing a party and you're invited!
Edit: OVERFLOW is here!

With Tanabata drawing close, the Heavens have decided that there is nothing wrong with a little celebration for the annual occasion. So they have invited everyone on the Far Shore as well as a large number of people from the Near Shore to attend a festival for Tanabata. Tanabata festivals are not uncommon in this area, so the Near Shore residents are none the wiser, though some of them are a little uncertain about where this street they've never heard of popped up from...
Tanabata is a festival held to celebrate the one time a year that the lovers Orihime and Hikoboshi can meet across the vast expanse of the Milky Way. Many birds have been working their tail feathers off to create a bridge for the two lovebirds and that bridge - perhaps unsurprisingly - touches down on this street, in the middle of the festival.
The Heavens have prepared entertainment, food stalls, and as many tanzaku as might be needed for everyone to write down wishes, along with plenty of bamboo stalks to hang the wishes from.
New arrivals will find themselves ushered to the festival and offered traditional clothing after their normal briefing at the Meeting Hall.

New arrivals will find themselves ushered to the festival and offered traditional clothing after their normal briefing at the Meeting Hall.

Stalls
- There are festival stalls of every kind present, all run by shinki dressed in white robes and bearing the golden chrysanthemum of Amaterasu. Many of them seem a little bruised still, but they are happy to smile for anyone who comes to the stall they are running. There is food, games, and drinks available of all kinds, so feel free to roam around to your heart's content sampling everything that you can.
Performance
- A large stage has been erected at one end of the festival street. The Heavens know that there are many talented gods and shinki present, so they are more than willing to clear spots in the scheduling for those people to perform. Anytime a Far Shore resident isn't on stage, there are plenty of Near Shore acts to go on, ranging the gambit from traditional music and instruments all the way to a rock band that has somehow found themselves here for the celebration.
Wishes
- Pieces of paper called tanzaku have been strewn about a number of bamboo shoots all over the festival. There are brightly colored decorations on the bamboo and the papers themselves exist in every color of the rainbow as well. Attendees are encouraged to write down any wishes they may have and hang them from the bamboo, a normal Tanabata tradition. Wishes can range from 'I want a soda' to 'World peace' and anything in between. Obviously, some of these wishes may not be able to be granted during the time of the festival, but gods and shinki alike are encouraged to answer any wishes they can as well.
NOTE: Please report any wishes your characters answers to the first comment on this post along with a link to where the wish is answered. There will be small bonuses awarded for answered wishes.
The Bridge
- As stated previously, the bridge that will allow Orihime to meet her lover touches down in the very center of the festival's street. It may be made of tiny pieces, but the bridge itself is sturdy. While it may not be able to take just anyone who sets foot on it across the Milky Way, you are allowed to walk along the bridge yourself, though you will always find yourself turned around after a short time and heading back towards where you stepped on. Lovers in particular are encouraged to walk the bridge together to deepen their bonds, but be cautioned! If you walk onto the bridge with someone, you might start feeling affectionately towards them even if they are your sworn enemy! Such is the power of love on this day.

In Summary:
- Enjoy the festival
- Watch some quality entertainment
- Make and/or answer wishes
- Meet Orihime
- Traverse the bridge
- Have fun~

[ And with the half-shrug, he's not uncomfortable with the idea at all. It'd save them both some frustration, and it wasn't exactly unfamiliar to him.
As Goten puffed out his cheeks, Shizuo patted the top of his head. It was done gently, as Shizuo always tries to be, but the kid could still feel that there was some amount of strength as he ruffled the boy's hair. ]
A bar's open late because that's when people come to drink. The air changes and the people there are usually less fun for kids to be around. You should only be there when it's lighter and friendlier. It's not nice to hear, but at night the customers only want adults around.
[ Never mind the laws and practical reasons. ]
no subject
It's exactly what Shizuo's said. I don't want you to be exposed to what the night brings to the bad, Goten. It's different from how it is during the day.
[Besides, he's not even sure Aymeric even knows Goten has been frequenting the bar during the day, anyway.]
no subject
Okay....so how old do you gotta be? If I gotta be old as you guys, thats gonna take forever and ever. I guess that's something to wish for then, huh?
[But he means well.]
no subject
Not as old as us. Legal age for drinking is 20.
[ Not... Not that places really follow that. Shizuo has the raw knowledge that teens frequent bars all the time. But what happens and what's legal are different. ]
So you shouldn't be going to bars at night until around that time.
no subject
Instead, he chuckles.]
Once you're 20, then you're able to come to the bar at nights.
no subject
. . . . .How will I know when that is? How do you know I'm not 20 right now?
no subject
You're probably 5. At most I'd believe you were 7. So you still have a while to go.
[ Though it makes him wonder how old they were. Maybe around 25? It's possible they were older, but there really wasn't any way of knowing, was there? Ah well. ]
no subject
It's just better for you not to be at the bar at night, Goten. Besides, I get to cook for you more during the day, anyway.
[Because at night, he deals with the drunks.
But then his attention is caught by the shinki as they announce their desserts are ready for the taking.]
no subject
[Goten frowns up at them both, though the ruffling makes him glance to Izumo. He's got a point. Goten likes it when Izumo can cook. So maybe it isn't so bad but st--- And thats when the dessert catches his eyes. Goten instantly is reaching up to take his. Bar talk forgotten in favor of food!]
no subject
I'll come in during the day to figure out what I already know, so we can see what needs filling in.
[ The easiest way instead of juggling the night crowd with a new employee. The way he was able to recognize things on the shelf, despite most definitely not being a drinker, was at least a good sign. ]
no subject
[He takes his own dessert, watching Goten in fond amusement before he takes a bite.]
Just don't mind the other guys I have working there.
no subject
Sunglasses guy is nice!
[It's said in-between mouth fulls.]
