[Open Mingle] End of Summer Lucky-Pot

Who: Anyone and Everyone!
When: September 22nd
Where: Cnoc Áine
What: It is the final day of Summer and the first day of Fall so the Temple of Áine, the Irish Goddess of Summer, throws one last picnic to bid her season farewell. All are welcome, as long as they bring a dish for the lucky-pot potluck.


[ To celebrate the final day of Summer, the Temple of Áine has gone all out, decorated in vibrant shades of red and gold that already accent the hint of leaves that are changing outside the temple grounds. Although inside the walled temple, it still seems like a beautiful summer day, the leaves on the trees still a bright vibrant green. The picnic is set up in the large orchard that spreads within the temple, the trees' boughs heavy with brightly-hued apples of every flavor and crispness.

Blankets and tables are scattered beneath the trees and in the clearing at the center, several long tables are set up to be filled with dishes brought by guests. Yona has supplied some of it herself, with the help of some friends. Several roasts, carefully sliced and carved for guests. A large platter of corn still on the cob. Several types of breads, seasoned with fruits or vegetables from the summer seasons or the harvest. And apples, of course - those seem to be here and there and everywhere; in pies, sliced and paired with peanut butter or caramel or other dips, made into a buttery spread for the loaves of bread. No matter what people bring to add to the potluck, there will be plenty of food to go around, as well as wine and ciders generously offered to go with it.

There is music playing in the background, just to set the mood or for people to dance to, and the pools of water are still warm enough for people to take a soak or swim in. And when the sun sinks and the sky darkens and the air grows a little cooler, a large bonfire is lit, with hot cocoa passed around and the makings for s'mores set out for anyone who wants to have a little dessert after their feasting. One last offering to a fading summer until it comes around again. ]

My love is the only sustenance anyone needs!

[ Hibiki, you've diverged from the point. ]
littledove: (Next time for sure!)

Then you try my love and I'll try yours!

[This is making less and less sense.]

Your love is inedible!

[ On the bright side, Kobato has definitely found someone in need of healing!

On the other side, everything else. ]

Revolution requires no such sacrifice!

[ Sacrifice, yes. This bowl, no. She could swear it's looking at her funny.

Hibiki looks about, herself. Then, she makes a run for it, still holding the bowl.

She has to get rid of this dreck before she's forced to ingest it! ]

Wait...!

[For some inexplicable reason Kobato takes chase after him... ]

You can't run and eat at the same time, that's dangerous!

[ Hibiki isn't listening. She's glancing about, intent on her task. Somewhere, anywhere...! Where are the goats from her temple when she needs them?! Goats can eat anything!

...They're back at her temple. Then, there's only one thing to do. Putting her fingers to her mouth, Hibiki whistles.

There is a mighty pounding of hooves. ]
