Homecoming Carnival Post II | The Park | Friday, October 25

[genesishero]

The carnival was going strong, with games that seemed to hold a certain classical flair. Probably. It was probably apparent as visitors to the park wandered around and took in the various games set up that the student council really didn't have the first clue as to just what 'classical' was supposed to mean.

But the food looked good and the games looked like fun all the same, right? Of course right.

Food & Drink

[genesishero]

The concessions were moddably stocked with all sorts of typical carnival fare, from kettle corn and sodas and cotton candy, to old-timey taffy and sticky candied apples.

The menu boards actually referred to most of these things as 'classic,' or 'vintage,' but it was all really the same as you're probably used to.

Of course, Emma was by the concessions.

Fried dough was even more delicious when you were counting it as a two days belated birthday treat instead of sticking a lonely candle in a cupcake of sadness.

Well Isaac was a growing werewolf and therefore needed a lot of food to keep him going. Tons of kettle corn must be had.

When Gert wasn't at the stupid booth, she was here, slurping a milkshake and being generally unsociable.

She didn't really love today a whole lot?

After a while, Topher ditched his booth to get a funnel cake, and it was totally up in the air whether or not he'd be going back. This funnel cake was really good. He might need, like... two or three of these.

Mat hadn't intended on being here--he had a promise to keep to Thom--but on his way to the pub to meet him, he'd gotten caught up in a random portal and was dumped here.

And now there was funnel cake, so screw trying to get back home right this second.

Where there was food, there was Chaz and wrappers left over from food that had been eaten. He had grown two inches!

There was carnival food happening, so of course Dean was all over that. Who wouldn't be?

Ow, his arteries.

Re: Food & Drink

[throughaphase]

If there were funnel cakes, Kitty would happily sit here and have one. With whipped cream, because if you were gonna eat one of these and clog your arteries, you better do it right.

Atton was poking through the food with gusto. What? He was pretty damned hungry.

Mmm, candied apples. One of the good things about this planet.

Tables

[genesishero]

Places to sit, naturally! With centerpieces sporting tiny busts of famous people through history. No particular part of history. But through history. Which totally made them classical-looking, right?

Stiles was taking advantage of carnival food by getting what seemed like one of everything they offered. Shut up, it was a celebration, he was allowed to eat what he wanted. He just hope he didn't nod off and have a nightmare about circus people.

Now somebody go win him a giant obnoxious teddy bear.

Something had gone terribly wrong. After Jessica sat down at a table,her spider-sense triggered too late to flip backwards and get herself clear. So not only did she get a gremlin bite on her leg, she also fell backwards in her chair. Smooth move.

Fortunately, any potential embarrassment was erased as she stood up and walked off to find a blonde wig, short shorts, something to stuff her shirt, and a passion for baseball players from the 1970s and 80s.

Oh wait, the venom was telling her that she had that already. Fast work, venom.

[OOC: Just establishy. Morganna the Kissing Bandit will be at the kissing booths whenever I have time today.]

Jaina had put off her move till after homecoming, since she'd only have come back for it anyway, so she was definitely trying to get out in the hopes of seeing people this weekend. She found a seat at a table with the intent of seeing who might be around, but she was spending a lot of time wondering why there was a head on the table.

Buffy narrowed down the carnival food temptations to one funnel cake and was sitting at one of the tables picking at it gingerly. Powdered sugar got everywhere and she liked this shirt.

After a while manning the dunk tank, April threatened Tiny into bringing her a pair of jeans she'd left in the bar once (don't ask) and wandered through the carnival with Cliff.

Honestly, it didn't suck. Especially once she got a beer and plopped down at a table with it.

Ender had a respectable plate of food sitting in front of him, which he wasn't touching much of. He'd agreed to come here to see Cade, but he was still on his guard - if the island tried to trap him again, he wouldn't be happy.

Alex had never been to a carnival before. She didn't get excited about much, but she did look forward to just having fun this time. She wanted to try everything: food, rides, games. For now, though, she was content to sit at a table and eat the funnel cake on her plate. She'd read that was a popular carnival food.

Re: Tables

Rilla was not remotely in a carnival mood, but Jims loved the food and the excitement, so she'd found a table off to the side and was trying to stop the two year old from choking to death on a corndog.

Naomi helped herself to a selection of food before finding a table to sit down.

[sharp_as_knives]

Hannibal, naturally, had brought his own dinner; he had serious doubts that what they served in these carts had anything to do with actual food.

After some time manning his booth and wandering around, he settled at a table to eat, drink, and watch people.

Rides

[genesishero]

Classical ones.

... No, not really. They're just rides.

Rides: Bumper Cars

[genesishero]

Pretty self-explanatory! Try not to ram anyone too hard, okay?

Games

[genesishero]

Even MORE classical?

Games: Ball Toss

[genesishero]

Throw your ping-pong-balls at a grate. Five in a row wins!

OOC!

[genesishero]

I've killed the notifs, so if you need anything, poke me!

And the icon was made by dollpocalypse, who was way more organized than I was about getting that done this year!
