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!

	Awesome. [If she does get him a pink elephant he will cherish it forever. He grimaces a little at the mention of the outfit.] Let's just say you should've taken pictures of me wearing it while you had the chance. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[It's in the cards.] What makes you think I didn't? [Smiiiirking as she nails this game some more. It was in serious need of nailing.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	fastonhisfeet 2013-01-06 01:28 am UTC (link)
	[He's pretty sure she's joking about the pictures and concentrates on eating his cotton candy while she's playing the game. But that smirk of hers is making him less certain by the second. Eventually, his curiosity gets the better of him.] ...Did you? [Why must you mess with him like this?] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	greenerarrow 2013-01-06 02:15 am UTC (link)
	[She gets her final ring in place and reaches for the toy before handing it to him with even more of that smirk.] I got you this pink elephant didn't I? Maybe you shouldn't doubt me. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[He managed to finish off his cotton candy before she was done with her game and happily accepts the pink elephant when she hands it to him, any thoughts about whether or not she has photographic evidence of him in a glittery outfit gone for the moment.]

Yeah, you'd really think I'd stop doing that by now. [He raises his new prized possession up with a hand so he can inspect it for a few seconds before tilting his head to the side so he can look around the toy at her, a goofy grin on his face.] So what should we name it?

	[You look way too ~~cute~~ happy with that pink elephant, Wally, and you're saying things. Things she isn't always sure how to react to. And things with "we" in them.] We're naming it? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	fastonhisfeet 2013-01-06 04:16 am UTC (link)
	Uh, yeah. I mean, who else is going to do it? [He thinks this part should be obvious, Artemis.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	greenerarrow 2013-01-06 04:20 am UTC (link)
	[She just laughs a bit. She meant why name it at all. Or why do it together as a "we", but of course he'd say something like that.] What did you have in mind? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	fastonhisfeet 2013-01-08 10:09 pm UTC (link)
	[He grins as he was hoping she'd ask something like that.] I was thinking that we should name it after you. [He's totally going to name it Artie unless she says otherwise.] Seems only fair considering you won it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	greenerarrow 2013-01-15 05:07 am UTC (link)
	After me? Um... Sure, I guess so. [Wally, you have done nothing but throw her off whatever game she thought she had since she got here. At least you're consistent.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	fastonhisfeet 2013-01-25 04:23 am UTC (link)
	[Throwing her game off is all part of the plan that he absolutely doesn't have. He practically beams at her.] Yeah? Then say hello to Artie the elephant. [He proceeds to grab a front foot of the stuffed animal and wave it in her direction. ~~Such a dork.~~] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	greenerarrow 2013-01-25 04:29 am UTC (link)
	[What is this beaming? And why is it kind of cute?] You're ridiculous. [And maybe kind of cute, not that she'll be letting that show except that she does leave a bit of an invitation for him in 3, 2, 1...] So, where to next? [If you want to keep hanging out that is. Not that she really cares. Much.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	fastonhisfeet 2013-01-25 05:26 am UTC (link)
	[If she's going to give him an invitation then he might as well take her up on it.] I saw that they have a haunted house of mirrors here. We could go check that out if you want. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	greenerarrow 2013-01-25 05:30 am UTC (link)
	[She wasn't sure what he'd pick, but that definitely works for her, so she starts in that direction, expecting Wally and Artie to fall in beside her.] So... Zatanna was talking about me maybe moving in with the rest of you. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	fastonhisfeet 2013-01-25 06:09 am UTC (link)
	[And fall in beside her they do!] She actually mentioned that earlier today. I think it's a good idea. ...Y'know, if you wanted to. [No pressure here.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	greenerarrow 2013-01-25 06:11 am UTC (link)
	You do? [And then she goes on because it's not like it matters if he does, right?] I guess it'd be okay. [She wants to.] She wasn't sure if we'd [too soon for we?] go with a bigger place or if I'd just share her room. I guess it depends on how you feel about riding the couch forever. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[He gives her a curious glance when she sounds surprised that he'd think her moving in was anything besides a good idea, but doesn't say anything as she continues on. Though when she brings up his current sleeping arrangement, he can't help but laugh. Somehow crashing on Rob and Zatanna's couch for a few days after he got here has ended up being three weeks and counting.]

I do love the couch. But it's probably best for everyone if we [never too soon for we] just got a bigger place. Unless you and Zatanna already have your hearts set on being roomies.

[All these glances, Wally. It makes her wonder what you're thinking sometimes.]

No, I think my own room works better. [Then there's no having to watch someone move out of it later.] Though I'd hate for something to come between you and the couch. Maybe we can just take it with us wherever we go.

[And look at that, they got to the house of mirrors.] Looks...reflective. [Definitely some spooky elements. Kind of cheesy from the outside though.]
