Homecoming 2017, Community Centre [Saturday Evening]

[omgnochecksyet]

Just when you thought it was time for the island's collective consciousness to maybe move on from the whole sharkicane thing... along came Homecoming! Well, the theme was actually "Under the Sea", but like the Student Council wasn't going to have glitter-encrusted sharks feature heavily in the decorations? Please.

Of course, it wasn't just sharks: there were plenty of glitter-dolphins, and fish, and octopuses octopi octopodes too. Jellyfish-shaped lights hung from the ceiling, and strategically-placed LED projectors were set up to complete the underwater ambiance.

The Perk- Saturday morning

[solo_sword]

Jag had come onplanet with Jaina, since sometimes they both needed a break and this was the closest things had been to the way they used to be since the whole emperor thing happened, but he was still stuck in the hotel on the mainland comming into daily briefings. Luckily he was also the kind of guy who had no problem with his sleeping kids being left with him during meetings so his wife could go get coffee.

So Jaina was here by herself today, which she didn't mind at all. In fact, she'd ordered two of the largest coffees because she knew she'd go through them both. One was even accidentally pumpkin spice, and she didn't even care.

[Open!]

Luke's Diner, Saturday

[what_the_shock]

"I was a spider last week. You wouldn't have wanted me here." Miguel was currently writing an apology note to Eliot saying as much. The kitchen staff just shrugged. Hey, if they'd ignore that, Miguel would ignore the bronzed pancake-pig sculpture above the freezer. For now.

As long as he could keep the coffee coming.

Today's Specials
Coffee-flavored waffles with coffee and brown sugar bacon
Maple-espresso baked oatmeal
Greek yogurt with coffee-fig compote

It was possibly a thing.

Luke's was open!

Turtle & Canary; Saturday [1021].

[special_rabbit]

With all these people in town right now, Amaya thought it would be wise to spend some time in the shop and, you know, actually sell things, though she kind of hoped what they might really need were some swords sharpened or some armor hammered out. Meanwhile, she was having Apu explain to her exactly what a homecoming was in this context.

"You mean these people are going back to see people they knew when they were younger?" she asked. "On purpose?"

He confirmed that, yes, it was entirely on purpose.

"This is an island for crazy people, isn't it?" she asked. "I've landed myself on a crazy person island."

And that was meant as a joke, but as she said it, it made her a little sad. Crazy people probably shouldn't have weapons.

Not that it ever stopped them before in her experience...

Covent Garden Flowers, Saturday

[1000yearstoolate]

After a generally bad week, Seivarden didn't mind too much to spend a day in the flower shop. Hopefully whatever customers that would show up wouldn't put her in a worse mood.

When she arrived, quite a few of the flowers levitated in the air. She sighed, took a seat behind the counter, and told herself that at least it was decorative. After a while, bored and restless, she began throwing pens at the flowers, pushing them around in the air.

Her aim wasn't bad. Something had clearly been wrong yesterday, and she had a suspicious as to who was behind that.

[Open!]

Steel Culinarian Suite, Arms Hotel, Saturday

[not_in_the_book]

Ronan had been enjoying a lazy lie-in after the excitement of the evening before -- sparring with Reno was always exhilirating -- when there was a knock on the door to his suite. Throwing a robe on over his boxers, he shuffled blearily to the door, only to be greeted with a smiling face and a delivery.

"... Right, I did see that fine print," Ronan said. He'd had it drilled into his head by certain unnamed parties (NITA) to always read it, but that didn't mean he paid that much attention to it. "Uh, one hour, right?" He lifted the bell off of the platter and frowned. "Ginger? That's nothing."

He threw on some proper clothes, propped open the door, washed his hands, and got to work. Before long, fragrant cooking odors would be drifting out of the suite and into the halls of the hotel.

Tom Kha Gai : Thai Coconut Soup (with Chicken)
Black Pepper and Ginger Pork Strifry
Ginger Lace Cones filled with Cardamom Crème Fraiche

Anyone hungry? Ronan's cooking again.

[OCD up! Ronan's serving whoever comes by.]

Caritas, Saturday Evening

[newroutines]

Mike kind of doubted too many people were coming by the bar today, what with the dance going on right during his shift, but whatever, he was here all the same. Ready to serve whoever decided the dance wasn't really their style. Like maybe they'd rather brood over a whiskey or something.

Not that he knew people like that. Perish the thought.

TONIGHT'S SPECIALS
10% off your drink
if you bring glitter

What, like he was supposed to go without glitter just because he wasn't at the dance? Perish that thought, too.

Homecoming Brunch, The Park, Sunday Morning

[misshapen_spark]

 Hope you didn't think you were going to escape the glitter or the seashells, Fandom, because there was plenty of both decorating the picnic tables and surrounding area.  Gold streamers decorated the trees, while glitter almost seemed to float in the air, and the weather was absolutely perfect.  

It's time for the Homecoming Brunch, the last official event of the 2017 Fandom High Homecoming.  

[OOC:   Up early for great timezone & SP justice.  Please hold for OCD.]
