party under the stars

[rugpull]

Who: Anyone
When: 10/4/2025
Where: Outside, track and field area
What: Party!!! FOOD! SWEETS!
Warnings: so much food

[Outside, under the stars, with lots of candles out for light

so many tables laden with sweet treats. One table of different pies--apple, pecan, pumpkin, coconut cream, blueberry

another for cakes! chocolate, angel food, carrot cake, red velvet, a cheesecake, coffee cake

and a third table with a tower of donuts alongside chocolately brownies, sugar cookies, chocolate chip cookies, peanutbutter cookies...

So many treats. And a hyena sitting on the ground, donut in his mouth, looking up at the sky as the stars start appearing as dusk sets in proper]

[ plops down next to the hyena. in her lap, a plate laden with pecan and apple pie. ]

[rugpull]

Hi.

What do stars mean t'ya, mam?

[velluminous]

[ hahh. she huffs considerately and folds her arms across her knees. the stars and their constellations cascade out above her, but she knows none of them. it's strangely lonely. ]

Fortunes. Fates.

[bowtiedbones]

How do I choose...

Ahh whatever! If I don't finish cake tonight, it's breakfast cake!

[rugpull]

Yer the smartest woman I know.

[bowtiedbones]

Thank you, I am.

[picking a slice of chocolate cake and a slice of pumpkin pie for starters and sitting down next to him]

A Side Performance! (cw: Clown)

[presgarddihellis]

[what's a party without some entertainment?

when there's a helpful device that supplies the materials, a certain clown, a certain magician even, can't help but to take advantage.

Miskatonic Smith is clearly wearing some white face paint with colorful markings under his eyes and bright red on his lips. he's also going to approach any who appear interested in getting a balloon animal from him.

no more arm in a sling!]

clown????????????????????????????????

[velluminous]

[ oh! the night has just gotten so much better.

sits herself down on the grass, leans back on the heels of her hands, stretches her legs out. this isn't precisely heckling, but it isn't not heckling, either: ] I cannot expect you to begin throwing pies, da?

[ME I WANT A BALLOON ANIMAL]

Oh my gosh, who did your face? They went all out.

[ordimame]

[. . . a few??? surprised blinks???]

I didn't know you took the clown thing that seriously.

[rude??]

[suplexer]

[ A clown...? Not that it takes long at all to figure out who this is.

Meanwhile there's Tifa, who's been absent the past few weeks and has finally stumbled out of her dorm room after a long bout of sickness and injury. She looks much better now, save for the discolored scarring that runs down her left arm. ]

Oh! Another face, Mr. Smith?

[ordimame]

[looking at pie. looking at cake. looking at donuts. looking at Mocha]

And just how long did this take you?

[rugpull]

A few days of prep and one busy day today...ya like it?

I made ya a coffee cake.

[tailsofwoe]

[ Hasn't grabbed a plate for herself yet, but comes and takes a seat next to him on the ground. ]

Do you enjoy stargazing?

[rugpull]

Not these stars...

They ain't mine. But back home I do. Cuz the stars are the dead lookin' down on ya.

[ratiocinations]

Spoiled for choice, aren’t we?

[As he surveys the spread. But at some point, he’ll help himself to a slice of pie and… settle himself down in the grass to watch he stars begin to bore into the sky.]

[rugpull]

...ya like stars?

[velluminous]

[ the thought that Mister Adair might occasionally want for a reprieve from her: not occurring.

comes to stand beside his shoulder. ]

Quiet nights in Kin'un's dormitory.

[titlecard]

[ man, truly, where does one even start.

... brownies seem to be the easiest to stack on a plate... also they're good... a couple of them will be a good starting point, surely. ]

Gonna take a bit to work all of this off.

[ worth it, though. ]

[rugpull]

Special day special treats! Ya gotta indulge!

[inexorableiron]

[Pointing at donuts]

This's gotta be the one you keep talkin' about, right dude?

[rugpull]

Yeh! Eat a load of 'em! They're my favs!

[suplexer]

[ But oh, who's this who's wandered out tonight? It's someone who hasn't been seen out and about for the past few weeks.

Tifa looks a lot better now, if a little bemused at all the rushing around and activities that seem to be going on. It feels like she's missed a lot, and she's at a bit of a loss.

But the smell of freshly-baked goods, particularly so many, would draw out even someone who's finally come to after weeks of being sick and injured.

Notable is that her left arm still has some discolored scarring on it, but otherwise she seems much better.

It doesn't take her long to spot Mocha. ] Wow, you've been busy.

[rugpull]

Sure have! Help yerself, yeh? Eat up!
