J,GoB; Sunday Morning [06/23].

[beautiful_boc]

There was some excitement, from the employees, when Boc came in that morning, the sort of excitement that at first made him wince and worry that he'd gone and done something wrong, but he very quickly realized that it was that strange phenomenon that seemed to happen on this island every once in a while of people actually just excited to see him.

And even more bewildering, they were excited to see him because they'd made something special for him.

That something special happened to be an absolutely massive cinnamon roll, inspired by something one of the bakers had seen on something called TikTok. Apparently, he'd seen one and immediately thought of Boc and his weekly cinnamon rolls and whether or not he'd like to try one so big.

So not only was he being given a cinnamon roll so big he thought it might take him all of a week to actually finish it, but it had been made specifically because someone was reminded of him.

It was a lot to process, so much so that he couldn't even think of the words to protest, he just numbly accepted this and went over to his usual table with his giant cinnamon roll and then just start there staring, slack-jawed, at it for a good long while.

When he finally did start tearing off his little pieces to eat, it was mostly just because it seemed rude not to, after all that extra attention had been spared just for him, of all people!

[[ and of course open for all your baked good morning needs! ]]

Fandom Pride Parade, Sunday Noon (6/23)

[drumsticksandd20s]

Was it possible that yesterday's rainbow now had a second, fainter shadow? It just might be.

Sure, it was hot and gross out, which was why the parade route was a little shorter this year; marked off by garlands strung between lampposts and posters with protest slogans from all throughout LGBTQIA history, it set out from the north gate of the school and went along Loon Drive, curving down Chimera Court and past the south gate before turning onto Apocalypse Avenue and ending at the park. And not at all because somebody slept in late today, shh.

Evidently the Magpie Emporium's resident gremlins had had so much fun being on a parade float last year that they were here again, riding in their shoebox on Little Bot's back and waving various tiny Pride flags. What, the gremlins who hung out at the game store turned out to identify on the queer spectrum? Who knew?

The picnic area at the park had a modest spread of light snacks and cold drinks for people to enjoy afterward, all to the sound of Steph's meticulously curated playlist of music by queer artists. Naturally.

[OOC: Iiiiii absolutely did sleep in late, sorry! In my defense it actually isn't noon for me yet! Please hold for some very mild OCD. Threads are up! SP to your hearts' content.]
