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!

	[She considers that, lips pursed and twisting to one side then the other while she slides her hand down from his hair to his cheek, thumb running across his jaw.] Dunno. Have to see that one for myself. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[If he wasn't going to before, he certainly was now. Maybe she'd caress his cheek more like that.] I think it'd make me look rugged. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	mightbelate 2013-01-15 02:25 am UTC (link)
	[She'd certainly run her fingers over the stubble. Eventually it might get old, but she'd probably tell him when it does.] Hmmm. Yeah. [Agreement and pausing a moment.] Or a bit like you rolled outta bed. Nothin' wrong with that though. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	at_a_cost 2013-01-15 02:47 am UTC (link)
	I like rugged better. Rolling outta bed makes me sound just plain lazy. [He snickers and runs a hand along his jaw.] Maybe I'll grow a beard as well. Just a small one...and a mustache! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	mightbelate 2013-01-15 04:39 am UTC (link)
	Or maybe in a hurry. Had to leave so quick you couldn't shave and comb your hair. [And they're back to the hair.] A mustache? All right then. Think I'd like to see that. [She bites her bottom lip, considering her words a half second before she ultimately decides that, yes, she does want to say that.] Might tickle a bit. Could be interestin'. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	at_a_cost 2013-01-15 02:31 pm UTC (link)
	[Kissing Rose with a mustache? Definitely on his list of his to try now. He's got the idea tucked away in his mind.] I think I'll make it a point to forget to shave for awhile. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	mightbelate 2013-01-18 02:34 am UTC (link)
	[She'll be pleased to know it's on his list of things to try. She grins at him, reaching up to run her fingers over his jawline. It's still smooth from his morning shave.] Just forget huh? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	at_a_cost 2013-01-18 03:28 am UTC (link)
	It'd be easy to forget, especially with a certain blonde walking around the flat. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	mightbelate 2013-01-18 04:02 am UTC (link)
	[An easy, bright smile spreads over her face. He really shouldn't have said that because now she's going to try and distract him by walking about. Perhaps she'll forego wearing a bathrobe in the mornings and walk around in the tee shirt and knickers she wears to bed.] Bit distractin'? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	at_a_cost 2013-01-18 08:42 pm UTC (link)
	[It'd be a great reward for sticking around to eat breakfast. A blonde goddess gracing him with her presence, wearing just her shirt and knickers.] Oh, I'd wager I'd need something very distracting. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	mightbelate 2013-01-23 03:41 am UTC (link)
	[It would indeed. Hopefully she can stand in for the blonde goddess. She grins the tip of her tongue sticking between her teeth.] Think I might be able to manage very distractin' (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	at_a_cost 2013-01-23 11:54 am UTC (link)
	[Oh? Now he's really looking forward to the morning.] I'd like to see that. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[She is too, but she is a bit nervous about it. They've never been that far in her timeline. They've never been like this at all. It makes her grin so wide her cheeks hurt and turn a bit pink at the same time.]

Yeah? Well if you're goin' to be hangin' 'round might see somethin' distractin' then.

[She's already planning on how to be distracting. Her ideas are probably a lot more convoluted and complex then is really necessary. It's intimidating though. He's half Time Lord with a thousand years of experience, knowledge and memory. She thinks that he needs a lot more than a girl in a tee shirt and knickers to be distracted.]

	[Rose in just her shirt and knickers would be enough. He may remember being older, but that meant diddly squat against human hormones. Anything even remotely revealing and he'd be incredibly interested.] Might have to wake up early for the occasion. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	mightbelate 2013-01-24 03:40 am UTC (link)
	[She laughs a little nervously, still smiling and blushing.] 'm lookin' forward to it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	at_a_cost 2013-01-24 03:55 am UTC (link)
	[That smile and blush was just so adorable.] Me too. [He glanced around the fairgrounds, looking for something for them to do.] Care for more stuffed toys? Or maybe enjoy some of the rides. Oh! We should go on the big wheel! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	mightbelate 2013-01-24 04:17 am UTC (link)
	Definitely ought to ride on the big wheel. [And she's going to tug him that way.] Might get some funnel cake afterwards. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	at_a_cost 2013-01-24 12:40 pm UTC (link)
	[He's more than happy to be tugged along by her.] Might? It's a definite requirement when visiting a fair. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	mightbelate 2013-01-24 09:00 pm UTC (link)
	And candy floss. [She's going to stuff them both so full of fair food they'll be sick.] We should try the bumper cars too. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Sugar makes everything more fun!] How about a trip through the haunted house? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	mightbelate 2013-01-25 03:21 am UTC (link)
	Doctor, you tryin' to get me scared so I'll snuggle closer to you? [Said in a teasing sort of voice.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	at_a_cost 2013-01-25 03:48 am UTC (link)
	If I said yes? [He chuckles and pokes the tip of his tongue out at her.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	mightbelate 2013-01-25 04:19 am UTC (link)
	[That gets a giggle out of her.] Ought to do the Haunted House first. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	at_a_cost 2013-01-25 11:44 am UTC (link)
	Alright then. Allons-y! [He laughs and pulls her in the direction of the haunted house.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	mightbelate 2013-01-26 01:33 am UTC (link)
	[She laughs a little and follows after him. it's fun to have an excuse to practically crawl in his lap. It also takes the awkwardness and the pressure of 'just wanting to' out of things for her at least.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
