Action | | Open to all
[Happy White Day, Miracle Country! It seems that this year, Miracle Country hasn't been very celebratory - having skipped Valentine's Day entirely - but perhaps White Day is a chance to make up for that?

Not so much. As a means to "celebrate", the world's magic is doing an anti-Valentine's event. Suddenly, affection is not only frowned upon, but actively discouraged. Couples today will find all kinds of obstacles interrupting any attempts to be romantic with friends, family, and lovers.

Holding hands? Suddenly there's a tree root to trip you. Going in for a kiss? Suddenly there's an invisible wall blocking you from your partner. Trying to cuddle? Water balloons are getting tossed at your head, or a bucket of very cold ice water. Trying to... get intimate? Well, enjoy that incredibly loud and annoying alarm bell that's suddenly ringing and won't stop until you stop, or perhaps that feeling that your pillow is full of rose thorns...

All kinds of things can happen (and feel free to make up your own): water balloons, tree roots, even quicksand in places! Sudden gusts of wind, sudden rain showers, birds landing on your head and pecking until you stop, sudden patch of ice causing you to slip...

But maybe if you hide away, it'll be alright. It seems that Kiseki isn't always looking to disturb the couples, and those that find interesting hiding spots and solutions might be able to have a moment or two with their sweetheart. Hide away, and maybe it'll stop...

Except, take heart couples, because White Day isn't all for naught: as the evening approaches, characters will fell compelled to go to the ballroom where everything is set up for Kiseki's very own Bitter Ball, complete with all the party decorations! And an abundance of alcohol.

It's almost as if Miracle Country wants you to get romantic, though, despite the mixed messages: there's plenty to eat and drink, there's music playing with a big open dance floor, and lots of pretty decorations for White Day. But help the poor couples who decide to show up together, because as soon as they step inside, Miracle Country is forcing them to opposite sides of the room.]

	So it would seem. There are worse things. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I hope we do not find those things out. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I'm sure we will. In the meantime... I suppose we should enjoy it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Smiles a little as he nods, agreeing of course, and for lack of a better suggestion of how they should enjoy themselves, he says...] Would you like another drink? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	insibbegerest 2014-03-26 10:36 pm UTC (link)
	[-!] [... >_>] Yes. I think I would. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Very well. [Happy to oblige, he gets you a drink accordingly. Good, let's hang out.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Right? It's great.] I would say it's possible we'll get by, but one never knows... (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	True. [Looks around suspiciously, just in case something is trying to sneak up on them or something ~~because he'd totally be able to stop it if he did.~~] ... It seems safe thus far. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	andmostnoble 2014-04-01 04:19 pm UTC (link)
	[.... You dork. He laughs quietly, clasping his shoulder a little.] Then I'm sure there's no need to be so vigilant. It's all right. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[D- does relax a little after that, and smiles a little, laughing] You're right, of course. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[His hand drops again slowly but smiling also, nodding.] And after tonight, it will all most likely go back to being quiet. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	insibbegerest 2014-04-06 03:17 am UTC (link)
	Undoubtedly. [...] There... was something that I wanted to discuss with you. Now's as good a time as any, if you're not opposed. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Lancelot, you're the best] [Leads them outside, and once out there he's able to actually yank off that gd sign which is good because he has serious things to say, damn it.] [...] There's something I need to give to you. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[Hesitates for only a moment - already knowing that he's going to give it to him, but... knowing what his reaction will be, regardless. He's been holding onto it for a while now, waiting for a proper time to hand it over, but.]

[Sighs and draws out a small photograph from his pocket, holding it out to him - it's a picture of Guinevere, taken on the last day of the 4th wall. It's actually a rather nice picture (probably because he knew he'd be hopeless with it and had Miko take the picture for him)]

... Here.

[...] I-- know. I thought you might want it. And... I think she'd want for you to have a token of her, as well. I know it isn't much, but I...

[He does indeed look surprised and hesitant as well when Arthur presents him with the picture, a little overwhelmed at her likeness and the reminder of the conversation ~~that I'm sure they had shush it totally happened behind the scenes~~ with her.]

Arthur... I--

[Gwen. He'd let her go so long ago but could never stop loving her in the end, even after her heart belong to Arthur. Even after he knew without a single doubt that they were meant to be together, and didn't blame them for their love.]

[He wants to ask him if he's sure about this, but of course--Arthur must have already gone through enough turmoil deciding on this gesture. He reaches for the photo and takes it carefully.]

Thank you. It's a token I will treasure.

[Looks relieved that he doesn't protest - worried that he'd have to order him to take it and hating to think he'd have to. He sighs out, some of the tension easing from his shoulders]

[He's... glad he can have that much. He knows that he, obviously, took much of Guinevere's time while she was here and while he couldn't help but feel worried, and jealous, that they should have time together -- he also could never deny either of them that, deny them that opportunity for closure and for seeing one another. Especially for Guinevere. Even if he can't help but still worry that, had things been different... Lancelot would have been her choice.]

I know you will.

I... know how you care for her. [Looks down at the ground, quiet for a long moment, not sure if he should say anything else.]

[Hahahahahaha everything hurts, Arthur no. He shakes his head a little.]

Gwen helped me find my way in a time when I was all but lost... She is a good woman. And I was always glad, for the way you loved her, and she you. [He would have wanted to come between it. Doesn't even realize just how much he did.]

I cared for and valued our friendship. She... perhaps did not understand it, but she helped me be sure of what the right choice was every time I questioned myself, until the end.

I know. [And he does know as much -- all of that. But he also knows that he doesn't know of the shade -- can't know of it, either. And that it wasn't him.]

[Nods a little]

She's... wonderful. [He can't manage more beyond that, but also knows that he hardly needs to tell Lancelot that, only needs to listen to him speak of her to know that he obviously knows all of that.] And I'm glad that you two could have had this time here -- however brief it had to be.
