200 — Anniversary Festival!

Happy Anniversary, Marina Nova!


The bots have been busy cleaning up the dome and setting up decorations for this momentous occasion, and by now there isn't a nook or cranny left un-pimped! Bright blue MarinaNova flags wave happily in the artificial breeze together with the colorful ribbons that have been wrapped around poles. The streets are illuminated by strings of lights and paper lanterns and each sector gate has been lovingly decorated with fragrant flower garlands.

Of course, that is far from all! There wouldn't be much of a festival without entertainment and your loving wardens have made absolutely sure that there's something for everyone!


Sector 0 Fairground: If you want to go faster, you have to scream louder! Sector 0 has been taken over by a fairground where you can find such old classics as the bumper cars, a haunted house of mirrors, a more romantic tunnel of love, a roller coaster, a classic merry-go-round and, of course, a ferris wheel.

Game Booths: Step right up! Test your skill and win a prize! Throughout the dome there's a variety of game booths, ranging from the classic ring toss and high striker to kissing booths and dunk tanks. There's also a duck pond game, balloon darts and goldfish scooping game — with mechanical goldfish, of course!

The prizes are all of the carnival variety, including but not limited to: stuffed animals, fake tattoos, cheap bracelets and necklaces, stickers, rubber reptiles, silly hats, wiggle snakes and sticky hands or other sticky things.

Performances: The other way to show your skill! There are two stages set up in the dome: the first one with sound equipment and instruments suitable for a musical performance — or perhaps just karaoke! If no one is using the stage, it will automatically play randomly selected music from a wide variety of genres. The second stage is set up to accommodate physical performances like gymnastics and when no one is performing you're treated to a projection of ball room dancers, gymnasts, modern dance, ballet and similar things!

There are also street performers scattered throughout the dome. You can watch robots juggle, eat fire, swallow swords or charm robot snakes! There's also face painting and the occasional robot dressed up as a human statue for your amusement.

Food: The food carts in sector 0 are now carrying food fit for the occasion. You can find classic carnival food like popcorn, cotton candy, corn dogs, funnel cakes and pizza slices, but also takoyaki, okonomiyaki, candied almonds, gyros, pirogues, egg rolls and of course snow cones and ice-cream cones. The theme has of course extended to the drink selection and you're welcome to quench your thirst with lemon shake ups, butterbeer, mead and malted milkshakes.


Enjoy!

[If you've ever seen a cranky lion it was him. Sitting on a platform over a pool of water, trapped in a fence made of wire frame. He was in the water duck booth, and to make matters worse his uniform for the event? Pokadot clown suit with a frilly collar. He was suitably miserable.

This truly was punishment.

So step right up boys and girls, and try to dunk the lion in the pool for a stuffed safari animal!]

[ Dirk steps up.

Unfortunately, his aim is pretty good.

Without a shred of apology, he throws the ball and hits the target. ]

[And he falls right into the water, splashing and failing before clawing at the fence to right himself.

He coughs and sputters, glaring at Dirk.]


Looks like you win a prize.. [Jack off!]

Don't hate the player.

[ After some thought, he picks out a stuffed cat.

And then gets back in line. ]

[Well this was becoming tiring very quickly. If he's not dunked a hundred times today he'll be surprised.]</b>

You don't have a vendetta against cats, do you?

For my friends.

[ And once his turn comes up again...

BAM. Enjoy your bath, kitty. ]

[ Like he could pass up this ever. Sorry, pussycat. ]

This is even better than I thought. [ So amused. So very, very amused. ]

[This must amuse you, a growling lion with clown face paint on his fur, half smeared from a previous dunk. His fur matte and wet. He just snarls at you, Spike.]

[ Priceless. He merely chuckles before sauntering over to grab a ball, playfully tossing it in the air a few times. ]

Well then... maybe I should test my skill, hmn? It'd be a shame to miss out...

Let's hope you miss. [He prepares to let out a loud snarl the moment Spike lets his ball go, see if that changes anything.]

We'll see, won't we? [ Snarl or no, he's not about to miss his target. Way too experienced of a fighter to be startled by sudden noises. ]

[Kersplash! He's in the water, crossing his arms, glaring out of the tank. This sucks. Surfacing, he claws his way back up to the platform.]

[he's not playing, just watching. He waves to catch his attention in between dunks] Hello, Mr. Lion!

[He looks out the fence as he climbs out onto his perch and looks down to the boy.]

Hello...?

I just wanted to compliment you on your stunning outfit. Very festive. I approve.

[because it's not often you get to rag on a lion in a clown suit]

[he laughs into his hand and then adds cheerily] I believe you would do magnificently in an advertisement for a particular hair-cleansing company!

[his tone is all lightly teasing, with no undercurrent of nastiness, but that may be offensive enough]

If you want me to pay attention to you, how about finding a way to release me?

[Which is a far better idea. He was done with this mess.]

[Shadow was hard to miss. Kitty tried really hard not to laugh at the ridiculous get-up he'd been put in as she came over between 'customers'.]

A dunking booth? Really?

[He glanced over to Kitty and nodded, he was soaked to the bone and miserable.]

Yes. It's punishment for murder. But I think I'm done with this, so if you'd kindly get me out of here!

I'd like to... but... Well, time served and all that. I mean, is there a minimum you have to be in there for?

[Kitty wasn't ready to go and get herself punished again so soon after the last one!]

Until two.

[He hunkers down onto the board he was sitting on and huffs.]

Ugh. Sorry to hear it. [Kitty made a face.] That sucks.
