Who: EVERYBODY.
What: The TWD crew is hosting a 4th of July celebration. Food, alcohol, fireworks -- come one, come all.
When: Thursday, July 4. All evening.
Where: Down by and around the lake.
Rating/Warnings: Just off the top of my head I'm going to guess language, juvenile delinquents, and possibly some public drunkenness. It is the 4th, after all.
Status: OPEN.

The basic schedule will look like this:

12:00 PM - Those wishing to help setup start arriving.
5:00 PM - Party goers not involved in setup start arriving.
6:30 PM - Grilling starts.
6:45 PM - Plates are being served.
8:00 PM - The Grill is fired down.
9:00 PM - Daryl and Rick shoot off the homemade rockets, six total.
9:45 PM - Hermione's grand finale firework show.

Cleanup and kicking people out will happen whenever people start getting tired. This is a Southern even, after all. They'll let it last high into the morning if that's what people want! No passing out by the lake, though.

NOTE: This is how the group thread is going to go down - Location threads have already been started within the post. The area and time are designated in the subject line. Comment to the areas you want your characters to play at, and put in the subject line of your comment who is participating in the thread or if it is open.

For example, if you decided to comment the GRILLING AREA - 6:30 PM to 8:00 PM thread, you would change the subject line to OPEN TO GRILLERS or DARYL/OPEN TO OTHERS WAITING IN LINE FOR FOOD. Then, as soon as someone joined, you may change the subject line to DARYL/RICK - CLOSED so that everybody would know that it's now become just a one-on-one convo between the two conversations.

Can I be in more than one subthread at once? Yes. Because there are events happening at different times, your character can easily be flitting around from person to person, mingling their lil' butt off. Just remember that it makes sense. You probably can't be standing in line at the same time as you're wandering along the forest edge waiting for everybody else to get their food first as those two events wouldn't work. But you could definitely be waiting in line for food, have a conversation, and then go sit down to eat and have another conversation. It's a party! Mingle!

And if in doubt? Ask! (Oh, and don't forget to tag yourself as you throw your characters in!)

I've added plenty of description for everyone to know what they are looking at, but I am not perfect! If I have forgotten something, feel free to pretend that I didn't and mention that it's there.

Last Note: Snap pops and sparklers are available for everyone.

	"I'm sorry." He withdrew his hand, thinking he'd overstepped his bounds. He cleared his throat and turned to start walking again. "How about that drink?" he suggested. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

As he turned and started walking again, without thinking, without hesitation, Siri reached out and grabbed his hand. “You don’t have anything to apologise for, Obi-Wan. Especially that.” It was just a surprise.

She didn’t allow herself to contemplate the loss she had felt when he had withdrawn his hand. The after-effects of returning to living and hearing the news of the future was the cause. That was all.

	Her sudden gasp of his hand stopped him, turned him back to her. He met her eyes for a long moment, then, unable to find something to say, simply nodded slowly. As he turned again, giving her hand what he hoped was a reassuring squeeze, he said, awkwardly, "I only wish I could be more help." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	She should have let go of him, should have pulled her hand away. But the truth was that standing there, his hand in hers, made her feel more grounded, more real, than she had since her sudden return to living. Squeezing his hand gently in return, she fell into step beside him again. “You’re here, Obi-Wan. That’s more than enough.” (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"I do admit to it being a great relief to have familair presences around in the Force," he told her. After a further moment, he seemed to realize that he'd been holding her hand for too long - probably far too long - and, giving it one more gentle squeeze, let go. "I find it grounding, as well. Comforting. It's a feeling from home." (Reply to this) (Parent)
