// Jingle Mingle_       ➣ Sparkles and Spirits Late the night before, visitors will be asked to leave as the atrium is going to be closed for a few hours. It's completely blocked off from sight. In the morning, it will be open once again and the entire space is covered in a soft padding of snow. With more still falling! It's not entirely clear just where it's coming from or how they rigged it up to not even melt, but it's here. Throughout the day, the snow will keep falling though won't get any higher than one foot. Except for a designated area on the western side of the atrium. There characters will find copious amounts of snow to build forts or snowmen or wage an all out guerilla warfare snowball fight. Stationed throughout the atrium in various places out of the way are buffets and bars to provide everyone with delicious delectables and delightful drinks. These stations are constantly manned and refreshed so that nothing is ever empty or anyone is left wanting. Don't see a food you're dying to have? Ask and one of the workers will be happy to seek it out for you! Late morning to mid afternoon, there will be a gingerbread house contest. Everyone is encouraged to participate and show off their creative skill! All items needed will be provided to create your masterpiece. Various awards will be given out, including Best Use of Gumdrops. Once the magic hour begins, all the lights in the atrium will begin to flicker on. Twinkling lights in the trees and candied garden lights will mark the path appropriately called Candy Cane Lane, which is little more than a means to encourage a more romantic atmosphere with a walk around the atrium itself.      ➣ Flannel and Frost Once night falls, the party is still going strong. More food is brought out and the drinks just don't stop flowing. Because what's a party without booze? On the east side of the atrium a large canopy is stationed with a dance floor beneath it just waiting for everyone to cut loose. A DJ will be playing all night with pulsing, hypnotic beats that not one booty can say no to. Invite someone to cut that rug or dance by yourself like no one's watching. It's time to cut loose! While walking through the atrium, be careful! There's enchanted mistletoe that will spring up anywhere at anytime and will trap anyone without restraint. (Did you think we wouldn't have this?) It hovers in the air with a soft green glow, encasing two passersby within an arm's length radius. Get those lips to puckering to get yourselves free! (A kiss anywhere counts, so don't fret!) Tucked away on the north side of the atrium is a large maze. It boasts to be the best activity for the holiday party, but those in charge could be a little biased. It's a mystery as to what goes on beyond the entrance and the only way anyone can find out is to just march right in. The rules of the maze are: 1.) No one goes in alone (max. 2 at a time) and 2.) If you feel too trapped or lost, take off the visor and the experience will be over. Upon entering, everyone will be given a visor and set loose inside. Each group will experience something different should they choose to go into the maze, so please go HERE for a customized maze trip! Everyone is free to stay as long as they wish, but around 3:00 in the morning, workers will begin dismantling things and ushering people out so they can clean. Once everyone is nestled all snug in their beds, they'll be visited by someone to get their holiday gifts! Happy Holidays! |
mistletoe. also i apologize in advance
What are you doing?
Oh Boy
I am obeying the rules set by this plant. [A helpful point upward.] At least, that's what I've been told, and it seemed somewhat reasonable at the time...
[What if he's been fooled?? How embarrassing.]
no subject
Well, they're weird rituals, but baby steps.]
I did not know the plant had rules. [He leans over, takes Reim's hand............ and does the same thing himself.
Then he looks at Reim's hand as if it is a bizarre insect.]
Strange.
no subject
Yes, well, you seem to have gotten the hang of it quickly despite it. I didn't know the plant had rules, either. Imagine my surprise...
no subject
[Maybe this was a human "prank." From his understanding Reim seems like a typical target for this kind of behavior. Ax doesn't know whether to tell him so, but it is a dishonorable thing to do so Ax can at least tell whoever did this to knock it off.]
no subject
Oh, a very helpful staff member told me all about it. [Brightly, like maybe he could point Ax their way if he also wants to learn about The Christmas and the plant rules??] I wasn't sure about being held by the plant's power until a kiss occurred, but as you can see...
[Obviously, it's true. Look. They are free.]
no subject
In my experience, Earth plants do not have that kind of coercive property.
[Of course, they're not on Earth, but...]
Are you certain this staff member was telling the truth?
no subject
Well... it does glow. I've never seen a plant glow before.
[So, that makes everything said about this plant... true?? Work with him.]
no subject
[Does Reim care about this? It doesn't matter if he cares about it. Ax is going to talk about it anyway.]
The matter of how and why is the territory of science, not magic. ["Magic" might be said a little snottily.]
no subject
And the floating...?
no subject
My guess is they're genetically engineered.
no subject
[Okay, he can make an educated guess about how that's done (barely), buuut-] What for? What purpose to plants have for floating?
no subject
It seems decoration.
