What: The Double S Charity Concert is go!
When: January 24th throughout the day
Where: Archer Park
Warnings: None planned

☆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.

[why does everyone want to hug Meril]

By enjoying yourself, of course.

[Maybe Meril might not have done this before Greg's influence had sunk in to her. Or maybe she would have done it, but without the little smile she offers.]
lightthedarkness: (Usagi) (Say aaaaah!)

Ah you're so nice! [She took a bite and made a little noise of pleasure and glee. Aaaaaaah it was sooo goooood.

Another bite and then she looked at Meril with a bright smile.

You have to have some, I insist!

Oh, just a little. I can always get another for myself, after all. [It is hard, even for an ice queen like Meril, not to enjoy such sincere appreciation of a treat.]
lightthedarkness: (Usagi) (Tee hee)

[personal profile] lightthedarkness 2016-02-05 09:45 am (UTC)(link)
[She gives part of the churro and she wants to see if Meril likes it as much as she does.]

It's so good, how can you say no, right? You're so nice to do this! Ah, my name is Serena Lapin, by the way. Please let me know if there is anyway I can repay you in some manner.
nibelungvalesti: (considering a thing)

[personal profile] nibelungvalesti 2016-02-05 04:18 pm (UTC)(link)
[No one can possibly like a churro as much as Serena, if that last display was any evidence. Far calmer and more restrained by nature, Meril pops the churro piece into her mouth without any great display.]

Meril. [She's reasonably sure that if Serena doesn't recognize her, she won't know the Defying Atmosphere keyboardist's real name.] And really, no repayment is necessary.
lightthedarkness: (Usagi) (Good morning!)

[personal profile] lightthedarkness 2016-02-06 08:58 am (UTC)(link)
A pleasure to meet you, Miss Meril! [Yeah, no, she has no idea who you are, but isn't that nice in a way?] Well, I'll tell you what! If ever you need a bouquet of flowers, please feel free to come to 'Thistle Do Nicely!' I'll provide you the best possible service! It's the very least I can do!
nibelungvalesti: (what?!)

[personal profile] nibelungvalesti 2016-02-06 05:23 pm (UTC)(link)
You know, I may have need for one of those at that. [People give each other flowers when they are dating, do they not?]
lightthedarkness: (Usagi) (Life is grand!)

[personal profile] lightthedarkness 2016-02-07 09:17 am (UTC)(link)
That's great, then any time you come by just ask for me by name and like I said, I'll take the best care of you. Although, Mrs. Ophelia and the boys are able to do it too, 'Thistle Do Nicely' prides itself on the best service you'll ever receive in a flower shop!
nibelungvalesti: (and I ruuuuuun)

[personal profile] nibelungvalesti 2016-02-07 06:49 pm (UTC)(link)
I will be sure to mention your fine advertising technique when I stop by. [Meril is more amused than anything.]
lightthedarkness: (Usagi) (Tee hee)

[personal profile] lightthedarkness 2016-02-07 10:57 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh ah, no that's alright, just so long as you get treated right when you stop by. [She smiled.]

Thank you again, by the way. This whole thing is so sweet.

It is a bit unusual, but doing something for charity is a very worthwhile cause, and I am gratified to see how many of us are participating.

[Oops, she said 'us'!]
lightthedarkness: (Usagi) (Gentle child)

[personal profile] lightthedarkness 2016-02-09 09:12 am (UTC)(link)
[Usagi heard the "us" but is kind and has enough presence of mind to not comment on it. Instead she says:]

Mmhmm! Bands and fans alike, we're all participating and supporting the charity, which is the most important thing.
nibelungvalesti: (and I ruuuuuun)

[personal profile] nibelungvalesti 2016-02-09 03:47 pm (UTC)(link)
Which is why I could not stand to see someone so unhappy. This concert should be a delightful time for all.
lightthedarkness: (Usagi) (Gentle child)

[personal profile] lightthedarkness 2016-02-10 07:53 am (UTC)(link)
Are you having fun too?
nibelungvalesti: (hands clasped)

[personal profile] nibelungvalesti 2016-02-10 03:35 pm (UTC)(link)
A surprising amount, actually. ['Fun' is becoming more relevant each day now that she is actually... well, with someone.]
lightthedarkness: (Usagi) (Tee hee)

[personal profile] lightthedarkness 2016-02-10 08:22 pm (UTC)(link)
Then that's what's important! Ah, thank you again for this. Have a great time, alright?

[She gave a small little bow and then made her way off to go see the rest of the festival.]
