☆A Little Little Fun



On the morning of the 24th, the sun rises over Vista City and, more importantly, Archer Park- a series of rooftop parks connected to each other by bridges and overflowing greenery of all sorts. It's a popular on most days to start with. Today, however, is the day of the Double S Charity Concert. Thus, it's more packed than usual.

One of the park "islands" is home to a concert stage, and that is where the concert is taking place. All throughout the next couple of days, various musicians will perform songs they've written about or dedicated to another in the industry. With the entertainment value of the idea and the fame of the musicians, of course the place is packed.

The stage is where every musician will end up at throughout the day, performing for the masses, but behind it is also a rest area for them to either bide their time or just hang out. It's supposed to be restricted to just those musicians participating, but frankly... security is lax just enough that bandmates and the such could duck on in to see their friends. No fans, however, sorry. It's not the most impressive of places, with seating areas and a salad bar and all the pizza that could possibly be ordered, but hopefully it's good enough. This is also where one can find event organizer Jenny around, in case they need to bring anything up.

Of course, no one is required to stay back there while waiting their turn, or after they've done their performance. Attempts to raise money go beyond just the concert. Double S has all sorts of stalls set up, whether to explain to people the various causes they can specifically pledge support to, or to sell merchandise. Can't forget the food stalls. There is, of course, a stall showing adoptable animals. There always is.

Finally, there's one last thing Double S has set up for any willing celebrities. It's a meet-and-greet area for the fans, where they have the chance to meet their favorite musicians. Giving out autographs, taking pictures with fans... There's even a karaoke set up for everyone to use. Musicians can sing solo, or with others from their label, or even with a lucky fan. AKA feel free to get NPC MP here. Hopefully, it'll get some good publicity for those interested in that kind of thing.

Tickets have been made astonishingly cheap in the hopes that more people will show, with anything else being made up by merchandise sales or donations.

Miss Bunny!

[Weaving through the crowd in his most fey of walks ever, Jack found her staring at the foods and decided that he too must stop and smell the goods. Not that most of it was something that he had seen before, but from some of the treats, he could guess that they would be far better then anything his old ship's cook could make. After all, the man had no idea what spices were for.

He had a pocket full of money and really did not need to buy a lot of things in life besides rum, so he did not see the danger in trying to buy a snack.]


Would you care to sup with me on these strangely appetizing wares?
lightthedarkness: (Usagi) (Please please pleeeeaaaase!)

[personal profile] lightthedarkness 2016-02-02 07:36 am (UTC)(link)
Mr. Constantine! [Usagi instantly brightened at the sight of Jack, how could she not? She smiled wide and when he offered to try the food with her?]

Eeeeeeeee REALLY! [She hugged onto him tight.] I WOULD LOVE TO! Ah YOU JUST MADE MY NIGHT!
dishonestlyhonest: (ah sunny days)

[personal profile] dishonestlyhonest 2016-02-02 06:43 pm (UTC)(link)
Now, now, love, you can call me Conny if you wish.

[Because really, the long name is just way too much even for him, who was used to actually using nicknamed more so than full names. There were a few names that he loved how they sound rolling off the tongue, but among friends, why should he bother?

And it was nice to see someone that would be grateful to get food the way she was. He was sure if he asked other people, they would be of a less then pleased with his offering to buy. He also wasn't scared that his wallet would suffer. It always suffered. That is how it went when one was a pirate, alas.]


Really? [A second as he rethought things over and then grinned.] Of course I did. Now, what should we try first?
lightthedarkness: (Usagi) (You're amazing!)

[personal profile] lightthedarkness 2016-02-03 09:44 am (UTC)(link)
[Usagi was about ready to droll, which would likely break that ladylike image Jack had of her. But then she snapped her fingers.] How about Captain?

[Since she knew he didn't like not being called it.]

That can be your nickname.

[She was sure he would realize that she was trying to give him a chance to be called by his proper title.]

Ah! Have you ever had a red-bean bun, Captain?
dishonestlyhonest: (that's a puzzle)

[personal profile] dishonestlyhonest 2016-02-03 07:03 pm (UTC)(link)
[Oh Usagi, you just made this pirate beam brightly. He did miss being called Captain and now to give it to him like a nickname? Oh, she was definitely such a precious lady, he can feel it in his waters. ]

What a capital name! You can call me Captain, if that's what you wish!

[He gave the named treat a look, trying to think if he had tried it. There were a lot of various foods that a roaming pirate has had in their lives and while Jack was mainly a pirate in the Caribbeans, he had been to Singapore and other such locals. He just couldn't recall trying a treat like that but there were times that the local souju drink had made things a little on the blurry side, which was rare even for him.]

I don't think I have, Miss Bunny. Would you do the honors and select us some?
lightthedarkness: (Usagi) (This is so exciting)

[personal profile] lightthedarkness 2016-02-04 12:23 am (UTC)(link)
Oh well you have to try some! They're delicious! Sweet and filling. [Says the girl who can eat ten of them in a row.]

And these are steamed bean-buns which means they're best when hot.

[Usagi went up to the stall, asking for two bean buns. She brought them back over to Jack and handed him one.]

Careful, it's hot!
dishonestlyhonest: (mm apple)

[personal profile] dishonestlyhonest 2016-02-05 07:04 am (UTC)(link)
[He pays the bill as she gets the treats and then eyes what she holds out to him before accepting it. It was hot, but that didn't seem to bother him too much. After all, too hot, too cold, that didn't matter to a pirate. What did matter was that the food wasn't rotten or covered in maggots.]

Thankee for the food. [And then he's going to dig in. The taste is a bit odd, but hey, never say no to food is in the Codes somewhere. He thinks.]
lightthedarkness: (Usagi) (So dreamy)

[personal profile] lightthedarkness 2016-02-05 09:52 am (UTC)(link)
Soooooooooooo? [She asked as she leaned in close, wanting to see what he thought of the food. She was already biting into her bun, letting out breath to try and cool her mouth from the heat. She took another deep bite into her bun.]

dishonestlyhonest: (ah rum)

[personal profile] dishonestlyhonest 2016-02-09 07:33 pm (UTC)(link)
[He takes a much more moderate bite and chews, before swallowing and eying the rest of the bun. He took another bite and then decided that strangeness or not, it was good.]

This is delicious, Miss Bunny.
lightthedarkness: (Usagi) (Life is grand!)

[personal profile] lightthedarkness 2016-02-10 07:55 am (UTC)(link)
EEEEEE! [She clapped her hands, bouncing a bit because she may as well be an excitable rabbit in a human body.] YAY! I'm so glad you like it!
dishonestlyhonest: (smirk)

[personal profile] dishonestlyhonest 2016-02-14 11:33 pm (UTC)(link)
A true pirate never says no to food.

[He took a bigger bite and swallows before answering her.]

Unless it's something that's visibly rotten or you knows been poisoned.
lightthedarkness: (Usagi) (Say aaaaah!)

[personal profile] lightthedarkness 2016-02-14 11:43 pm (UTC)(link)
Well I never say no to food unless it's that kind of stuff either, maybe I have pirate in my background.

[She laughs as she takes another bite.]
dishonestlyhonest: (oo impressed?)

[personal profile] dishonestlyhonest 2016-02-14 11:52 pm (UTC)(link)
Mebbe you do, Miss Bunny. I wouldn't say no to the idea.

[And with that he finishes off his food and licks his fingers clean because what are napkins? That's a posh thing and he is just a humble pirate really.]

So what is next in this venture?
lightthedarkness: (Usagi) (Good morning!)

[personal profile] lightthedarkness 2016-02-14 11:58 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, now that you've had a red bean bun, you need to have a churro!
