Spring Festival [OPEN TO ALL!]

When; Friday, April 6 2012, afternoon into night
Rating; Various! Warn if you need to on individual threads.
Characters; EVERYONE EVER!
Summary; Spring festival
Log;

Xanadu is buzzing this afternoon with with food stands and booths with games to play and trinkets to sell or win. There are a couple of stages where people play instruments, sing, juggle, and otherwise entertain.

People donated money, time and materials to bring everything together. Some areas are very polished and professional while others have more of a homemade touch, but it blends together nicely and there is a little something for everyone. A little further from the main attractions there is space for relaxing or playing a game of frisbee or catch.

As the evening settles upon the City, paper lanterns light up an outdoor dance floor and a band plays a range of music from romantic to spirited. There are also tables set up for those who would prefer to star or people gaze.

(OOC: As mentioned here please feel free to have your character/business set up a booth or stand or to be performing under the appropriate headings! They can be doing if for money, free, or charity. General Mingle | Booths: Games/Merchandise | Food Stands | Entertainment/Street Performers | Dance)

[ Her eyes slowly slide up, back having tensed as soon as she realized someone was behind her. ]

The people move so quickly, I haven't been trying to capture them perfectly. Poses, a few details, and memory -- that's it, for them.

Well then. Why not lend a little imagination to the work?

[Still smirking, he points to the people in the sketch.]

Why not make a few of them dead or decapitated?

[ Her lips press together. ]

It doesn't suit the atmosphere of what I chose to draw.

[Sniff.]

Then you'll end up with a maddeningly dull picture. Happy, laughing humans people. Who wants to see that?

[Not him, for very damn sure.]

Around here? A lot of people, considering some of the curses.

[SOB ARIADNE. Why are you so full of goodness and pure intentions?]

Death sells, my dear. Even in a place like this.

[Especially for an audience of Karls :|]

Of course it does, but it's not what I'm selling.

[ Back to sketching. Hope you don't mind being ignored, Karl. ]

Tch.

[HE HATES BEING IGNORED. For a moment, Karl imagines leaning over, easy as you please, and brushing a hand along the girl's neck. What a satisfying squelch it would make if he slit it open. The blood-splatter would be so pretty on white paper--Don't. No 'easy thrills' here. Not while Solomon is nearby.]

[Instead, he'll smile casually and lean against the bench. AND WATCH YOU SKETCH, ARIADNE. Consider it vicarious 'art-therapy' B|]
boutant: ([catty] unimpressed)

[ She had a feeling he might. Still, she's going to continue to ignore him, focusing on the booths and decorations for now. If it weren't for the fact that she can feel him watching, it would almost be just like before. ]
