[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.]

	I'm sure everyone here has their own messes they're dealing with, one way or another. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	... That does seem the case, more often than not. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Right? [Smiles at him a bit.] Best we can do is help each other out in dealing with it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	insibbegerest 2014-03-28 01:05 am UTC (link)
	True. People around here are very willing to help, in the end. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Laughs] Yeah, no kidding. [She doesn't know what to do with herself over it sometimes.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[... Laughs, since he can understand that expression and what she doesn't say] It can be a little overwhelming. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Hahaha stop being actually her. Sighs, making an expression now similar to his lol.] I mean--it's not a bad thing? Really. But yeah, it can be. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	insibbegerest 2014-03-29 05:22 pm UTC (link)
	No, of course not. That so many should have the capacity for such compassionate and kindness is admirable. But... [it is a lot lol.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Sighs slowly] It's overwhelming. Not just here, but... [For a moment, she seems to flounder for words, sorting the thoughts in her mind. The inevitable awkwardness between herself and her optimistic, endlessly kind and hopeful parents front and center even if she doesn't say it aloud.] I'm not used to that kind of thing from anyone.

	[...] It's unfortunate, that such a thing should be the case. For all that I can see, you're a remarkable person, Emma. If in your life others have failed to recognize as much, then they are at fault for it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Hey stahp no u] ... Thanks. [She mumbles that sort of quietly but meets his gaze when he says as much.] It's fine. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	insibbegerest 2014-03-31 07:09 pm UTC (link)
	It's not, but I know what you mean. And whatever may have been the past, it doesn't seem to me you are without kindness in your life now. And those who care for you, as it should be. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Nods, smiling a little to herself. Sob, her fambly.] Yeah. Somehow, things worked out that way. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Smiles a little, fleeting] I'm glad for you. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	birthrighted 2014-04-02 04:39 am UTC (link)
	Thank you, Arthur. Really. [You're a good guy.] (Reply to this) (Parent)
