these long summer days
Characters: Any of the characters participating in the party.
Date: Backdated to July 15th.
Summary: To apologize for the incident with the phantoms, the Queen puts together a party for all the inhabitants of the Gardens.
Warnings: IT IS A PARTY what could go wrong. (But just in case, if something occurs in your thread, please let the mods know and we will update this.)
For some days now, denizens of the Gardens may have been wondering what it is the Queen had in store for them after the phantoms had finally dispersed. Perhaps they may have been aware of the sound of hammering and construction that seemed to float on the air from no specific direction. Today, however, the sounds seem to have mysteriously ceased, and at some point, each of the girls and women will receive an invitation, written on pale yellow paper in deep pink ink that seems to shimmer slightly with certain angles of light:
Asking the cats for directions, or simply heading toward the northwest of the Gardens by oneself, will eventually lead one to the aforementioned Crimson Pavilion — an enormous outdoor party tent, similar to the Viridian Pavilion in scope and size. The Pavilion is strewn with drapes of crimson gauze that shade its interior slightly from the sun, and delicate flower-shaped lights wind around each of the tent poles, producing a faint, sparkling luminance. Colorful flowers are strewn across every available surface, and a sourceless music floats on the air, an upbeat melody seemingly designed to compel one to dance. And all over the tables are food and drinks in every variety one could possibly imagine, though the overarching flavors and themes seem to remind one of summer days and tropical islands.
The drinks, especially, are very good — though perhaps one should be a little careful. There is, as they say, too much of a good thing.
[ Notes: The drinks, as one might expect, have a few side effects:
⇒ Pineapple juice compels characters who drink it to feel as if they cannot help but be honest about their feelings toward other characters. If your character has a crush on another character, or has fallen in love with her, she may not be able to resist the desire to confess her attraction.
⇒ Orange juice creates feelings of happiness and contentment. This can range from an unnaturally strong sense of giddy joy to a more calm, relaxed state of well-being. And, of course, your character may be compelled to share her feelings with others.
⇒ Fruit punch induces a desire for intimacy, whether that be holding hands or cuddling to making out and more adult activities for adult characters.
Of course, there might be other drinks with other effects, as well, and the drinks may be mixed to create multiple effects. There are also drinks that are just drinks without any special properties.
Have fun! ]

Or did you have something else you'd like to do?
no subject
no subject
I haven't either...
I guess most people are talking and enjoying the food, or dancing...
no subject
no subject
...I don't really know how to dance either. [And Amamiya probably still has the sore toes to prove it.]
But maybe we could learn sometime...
no subject
how did that post early, I did not hit enter D:
[As they've talked, some kind of peaceful feeling has come over Homura's mind, easing her doubts and worries, gently pushing at her against her normal restraints. She smiles comfortably.]
But if I were to dance, I'd like to do so with you.
no subject

But are you okay with that, Madoka? Doing that sort of thing with me...
no subject

But... [There's more to how Homura feels, isn't there? The thought comes back to her mind with the word "friends".
It's been on the girl's mind for a long time now, a query where exactly being just a friend would end and something more would begin. It's not something Homura has dealt with before, not until this all began a few months ago. But even though she may have been blind to it, regarding all her time with Madoka fondly but assuming her feelings to be normal friendship, her time had lead her to question it more and more.
Maybe these feelings really are more than what could be constrained to the idea of friendship.
But...it's not something she could ever hope to bring up to someone, even Madoka, is it?
Yet, with the calm feeling over her, the voice at the back of her head that does want to talk about it is getting louder and pushing forward, while Homura's doubts - "What if she thinks I'm weird or gross?", "What if she doesn't want to be friends if I say that?", "What if..." - weaken more and more, gradually and gently forced to the side.
Weakening or not, however, they hold for the moment, catching her tongue in a hesitant silence.]
no subject
... Sometimes, it feels strange. Although Madoka had only just met the girl a few weeks ago, technically--
... It feels as if Homura and her have become close quickly. ] Homura-chan....?
no subject
[But the longer she resists that thought, the more forceful and urgent it becomes. It's not something she can hold against forever, not with it pressing her like this.]
I was just thinking... most of the time in movies and such, you see people who are more than friends dancing together.
no subject
no subject
I just thought maybe you'd prefer to dance with someone else.
no subject

I would want to with you more than anyone else, Madoka.

Homura shakes her head gently.]
I'm not skilled at it either... But I want to do it with you. Not just anyone else. It doesn't matter how long it takes.
Madoka...
[Her cup goes to the table as she empties her hands, so that they may clasp Madoka's together in her own. As calm and comfortable as she feels right now, that does not stop her own cheeks from burning on either side of her smile.
The words leave her mouth much more easily than she could have ever expected, forcing their way through all her worries and insecurities with nary a stammer. It's not something she can hold back any longer, and it all comes out with some enthusiasm.]
The truth is, I really like you, Madoka!
no subject
Madoka, who was never good at anything. Madoka, who never thought that anyone would like her. Madoka, who lacked so much confidence in almost everything she did. And yet, cared so much about the people around her.
She had never thought about it, because... she never though, for a second-- that anyone would ever...
So, she can only stare wide eyed for a moment, her eyes meeting Homura's. ] You... like me....? [ The words are said carefully--afraid that she might have misheard her. ]
no subject
It's not something she can take back, nor does she want to. Everything feels just fine...no, everything feels great, just how it should be.
Homura replies clearly, looking straight into Madoka's eyes.] Yes, I do! Everything about you, Madoka.
