Book Party [ota]

Who: Romeo, Elfnein and literally everyone in the heavens. Even if you weren't personally invited every invite came with a +ALL YOUR FRIENDS and there's also a sign. Strangers are just friends these two haven't met yet.
When: 29th April. Afternoon onwards
Where: Temple Smol (Gegute's library)
What: Just the cutest book party the heavens has ever known! Bring your best book!



Arrival

You might have received an invitation, or perhaps you are just passing Gegute’s library but there is an brightly painted sign outside.

Book Party today!

Everyone welcome! Bring your best book or dress up!

Lots of tasty food!


The doors of the temple are open and once you arrive in the lobby there are more bright arrows pointing the way into the library. If you are still stuck mister Goat is at the help desk, he’ll direct any one who needs it!

Activities

The layout of the library hasn’t really changed at all, except a few tables being moved to accommodate activities and all the comfy reading cushions have been brought to a central location. All the shelves are decorated with colourful paper chains and streamers.

Romeo had really enjoyed Yuna’s birthday party with the activities to do so he had copied the idea for Elfnein’s book party! On one table there is material for making bookmarks. You might want to recut the card strips, they are a little wonky. There is ribbon and glitter and colouring pens and glue.

On another there is a cardboard box puppet theatre, painted in a riot of colours with colourful strips of material as curtains. There is some felt and other material, as well as scissors, glue and wool to make puppets with. A sign reads in childish Hirigana. Show your best book!

Food

The invitations had promised lots of tasty food and there sure was a lot! A whole table filled with tasty treats, Romeo had been very very busy! There was a whole tray of chopped fruit, another of vegetables like carrots and cucumber.

There was bread and cheese and two bowls of pasta with different sauces. Another bowl of noddles with meat and vegetables. There was a huge bowl of rice too with a tray of grilled fish and a bowl of broccoli and asparagus.

An entire part of the table was taken up by apples and things with apples in them, apple turnovers and even an attempt at an apple pie, it was a bit smushed but probably tasted fine.

There was a tray of very misshapen cookies with messy icing and another of even messier cupcakes with far too much buttercream. There were also churos and a chocolate Gateaux, these seemed to have been bought rather than made, Romeo hadn’t even known where to start it making them!

There was an attempt at making books and other shapes out of rice and vegetables packed in the two bento boxes Ebisu’s temple had given him for Christmas, but they were a bit crumbly, misshapen or just plain strange. In the centre of Romeo’s bento attempts was his magical bento box, every time it was opened there were different fancy bento creations, if the children’s attempts left a lot to be desired.

Have fun!

"The colors certainly indicate that much. I kinda ended up adopting one of the robot ones? Or kidnapping, I'm not sure. He's great for getting drinks and snacks for everyone."

Some offices have pets, her floor's happens to be a purple plush robot goat on a wheeled platform? Not everyone can be choosy.

"I'll have to ask her about the goats sometime. One of her friends seemed fond of goats."

"Yeah, that happens." Wendy doesn't even sound remotely surprised. As someone who isn't getting drunk off of her own ego, she's picked up that sometimes the goats just... wander off for whatever reason, and there are definitely not as many as there first were. It really is a peculiar mystery, but, as long as none of them get destroyed, it's fine.

Maybe even if they do get destroyed. Do robots feel?

Still, at that latest news, Wendy perks up a little and pauses in her crafts. "Which one of her friends?"

"Fuwari? Short blonde hair with a braid, pink eyes? One of Hibiki's friends from her home."

Very nice girl, Falulu too. Though the time is unknowing short-lived, Ginia is happy Hibiki's friends are here. It works out better with Hibiki having realized what and who are important to her here, but timing is a matter of precision and drama and a dash of luck.

"Ah ha!" Wendy claps her hands together and snaps her fingers the moment they pull apart. She had a feeling it was something like that, but she needed that confirmation first. "I've seen her! Not in person, I missed my chance there, but Hibiki references her!"

Rather, Hibiki has dolls of every person that's of relevance to her, whether that's good or bad, all sorted into very specific categories... But Wendy won't mention that. It sounds a little bit creepy when she says it that way, after all.

Does she? Well... maybe Ginia can't be too surprised at that. As one of the few avid players of PriPara around, she's picked up on some of the people surrounding Hibiki back home and has heard some of the loose mutterings from the sun god. Still, Ginia can't help but wonder.

"How is Hibiki doing after her movie debut went awry? She seems like she's doing better and is her usual self again, but is she really or is she putting on a front?"
