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!

	[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)

[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)

	at_a_cost 2013-01-26 02:18 am UTC (link)
	[Anything to get her closer. He has to remember she's two months behind him in the timeline. They're seated in a little car and sent into the waiting darkness.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	mightbelate 2013-01-26 03:07 am UTC (link)
	[She grins, sliding a little closer as they go into the darkness.] S'not so bad. [And then a plastic skeleton jumps out at them, startling her so that she ends up half on him. It gets a laugh out of her in the end.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	at_a_cost 2013-01-26 02:47 pm UTC (link)
	[He can't help but laugh too as she's practically in his lap from a silly little jump scare. It was just so mundane...and he loved it!] Don't worry. I'll protect you from the plastic baddies. [He teased and wrapped an arm around her.] Just like with the mannequins! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	mightbelate 2013-01-27 12:52 am UTC (link)
	Oi! See more reason to be scared of plastic skeletons. [She's just going to go ahead and drape her legs over his.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	at_a_cost 2013-01-27 03:18 am UTC (link)
	[Which he completely enjoys, holding her tighter.] Oh, they can't get past me. Ha! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	mightbelate 2013-01-27 04:01 am UTC (link)
	Guess I better get closer then, yeah? [You wanted a Rose Tyler in your lap, didn't you, Doctor?] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	at_a_cost 2013-01-27 04:14 am UTC (link)
	[Very much so, yes.] Quite right. Can't make it easy for them to get you. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	mightbelate 2013-01-27 04:52 am UTC (link)
	[She wraps her arms around his neck.] Figger this way, they'll have to go through you first. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	at_a_cost 2013-01-27 02:41 pm UTC (link)
	[He smiles. Somehow the Haunted House is their tunnel of love.] Right. They'll never get past me! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	mightbelate 2013-01-27 11:13 pm UTC (link)
	[Because they are ridiculous and running/being scared/in danger is like an aphrodisiac to them. She curls her arm a bit tighter around his neck.] Really ought to just stay very close. [Jumping a bit when some sort of monster emerges from the shadows and growls at them.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
