St. John's Eve Celebration (backdated to the 23rd)

[It's only just stopped raining when Anita lights the bonfire.

She knows this is bad timing. She knows she should probably call the whole thing off. She knows anyone who does show up is probably going to be bruised to hell and back, at best. But it's St. John's Eve and she said there was going to be a party, and if there's one thing Anita is terrible at, it's giving up.

Besides, she did cook an absurd amount of food (with help, of course) and the bonfire is sort of ungodly huge, and she figures that everyone will want sustenance and warmth soon.

She's dressed all in white, as befits her position as host, and before anyone shows up she says the prayers by herself, because she doubts anyone else will want to. That's okay. She's pretty sure the gods will understand, given whole trapped-on-another-world and there's-just-been-a-war-on-the-moon situation.

If you decide to show up to the party outside Community Housing Building 4, there will be a ton of traditional Creole food, some music, a bonfire, and plenty of places to sit in case you're not feeling up to standing. Feel free to mingle!]

Really?! What's that clan like that you're so hotshot in 'em?

[With a proudish sort of smile, he ruffles her hair some more. He's not... perfect with kids. But oh well]

Um. [She looks thoughtful for a moment as she tries to decide how best to describe them.]

We did a lot of stuff, like treasure hunting and exploring, and we even had a secret base! And when some bandits tried to kidnap me, Leader and everyone stopped them. [The memory still makes her wince slightly.]

Kidnapped?! Why was some kid like you kidnapped?!

[With his eyes widening and being taken aback and all that stuff. He looks her over. ]

For ransom money from Papa.

[She hastily flails her hands.] But don't worry; they didn't get me! I ran and hid and the Suna Suna clan-- [She hesitates slightly; this is the painful part of the memory.] They fought the bandits until the guards got there.

[there are so clearly some weird parts in that story. But... he leans his arm over and pats her on the head to ruffle her hair]

Ah, sounds like some good friends to have with you, then.
alabastatomboy: (explaining)

[personal profile] alabastatomboy 2012-07-19 04:58 am (UTC)(link)
[Again with the hair ruffling? She bears it without complaint, though.]

Mm! Really good friends! Except a lot of them moved to different places, so the Suna Suna clan is disbanded now.

Oh jeez, really? That's a shame. [...He should get food, now he thinks of it. He glances around, where's the food]
alabastatomboy: (curious)

[personal profile] alabastatomboy 2012-07-22 08:54 pm (UTC)(link)
It's okay! I still see Leader sometimes, and--

What are you looking for?
rashness: (Find a way)

[personal profile] rashness 2012-07-24 03:11 am (UTC)(link)
I lost track've where the food is. You know where it is?
alabastatomboy: (happy running)

[personal profile] alabastatomboy 2012-07-25 05:12 pm (UTC)(link)
Uh-huh! [She beckons.] Follow me!

[And like that she's off, heading around the bonfire for the food table.]
