☆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.

[that...

is a weird way of talking. Shen pulls his hands back as the stranger catches his camera, a little taken aback. maybe he's just a big fan of...someone's. he doesn't...think he really recognizes the aesthetic, and he's good with aesthetic.

but after a moment, he reaches out, palm-up]


...it's okay. Just give it back.
dishonestlyhonest: (well yes)

[personal profile] dishonestlyhonest 2016-02-15 05:36 am (UTC)(link)
Hm? Oh, this?

[He held up the camera, giving a look like he had never seen anything like it before in his life - which is the complete truth - and then placing it on the offered hand, taking care to show that he was being careful with it. That done, he spread his hands out, fingers wiggling a little as Jack decided to play up his more fey tendencies.]

I must say that this here is a lot bigger than I could've imagined. When I was told 'twas a popular concert, I did not expect there to be more to it than a few songs.

[pleasedon'tdropitpleasedon'tdropitpleasedon't

Shen visibly relaxes when he gets his camera back, quickly clutching it close to his chest. he gives a quick few glances down as he turns it over, looking for scratches, before looking back up with a little frown]


Where are you from? I mean...even if everybody's going by themselves, this is small.
dishonestlyhonest: (oo impressed?)

[personal profile] dishonestlyhonest 2016-02-15 05:45 am (UTC)(link)
[There were many things that Jack was, but one of them was not clumsy. At least when he had just the right amount of rum.

He tapped his fingers against his teeth as he thought about the question. He knew that he was suppose to keep things underwraps. He knew he wasn't suppose to say much about the when and where and whyforths. But seriously, this was a bit crowded even compared to a regular London street, at least the kind that he was use to.

So.

Might as well play around a little. here.]


The Caribbeans. Most specifically a rather dull little island with plenty of sun and surf but lacking the the wild and imaginative to-dos like this one here. Videos and such do not make up for the lack therefor of, aye?

[personal profile] hanginginthere 2016-02-15 05:47 am (UTC)(link)
[that's...a long way away. and while that can answer quite a bit about the weird man - Shen's never been to the Caribbeans, maybe they all act like that there - they raise a few more questions.

he brings his camera up just a bit more.]


Then...what're you doing here?
dishonestlyhonest: (ahh yeah that)

[personal profile] dishonestlyhonest 2016-02-15 06:21 am (UTC)(link)
I decided to seek out me fortunes and view the world without having to worry 'bout such things as money and ties to anything. Unfortunately, the money part seem to have brought me to a sudden halt in this place.

[Spinning the lies with the truths was almost as natural to him as it was to sail the Pearl through a storm. This was him, Jack, at his most natural tongue twisting way.]

So I've been generally here and there, but especially at the 'Ye Shipwrecked Temple' - Pub and General Pirate Show.

[translation; he got bored and started to wander, now he's broke. it takes him a minute to parse it, though, but it makes sense...sort of.

the very, very slightest of only-so-pleasant smiles curls Shen's lips. he's not necessarily a mean person, but he can't resist...]


You could probably find a better place to look for talent. [beat] Or being seen, if you were trying to rise up.
dishonestlyhonest: (gee me without rum)

[personal profile] dishonestlyhonest 2016-02-22 08:18 am (UTC)(link)
I suppose, if I was really looking to do that, mate.

[Seen by the people in this place? Especially those that he thinks might actually be hideous creatures from the depth of Davy Jones' deepest nightmares? No thank you. Jack was many things, but being ridiculously brave was not one of them.]

I'm only making port for as long as I can gain sufficient enough funds to put wind in me sails and find a new port to stop in.

So you spent money on a ticket here...?

[he thinks there were tickets. he can't remember. it was for charity, right, so tickets would raise money?]
