Ninety-Eighth Explosion

[Voice]

Attention! To those it may concern, you should know that Tanabata is rapidly approaching us! [...The summer really came on him quick. His birthday is too, though only a handful of people will know that his 18th birthday will be on July 31st. He grunts and decides not to dwell on that subject too much.] Brigade, for those of you who aren't senior members, you will be receiving instructions on the proper way to submit your wishes within the next few days, and as such, failure to attend meetings will result in a harsh penalty!

[...And then a sigh before he runs a hand though his hair. He ought to say more, right? But in the light of the current climate which seems to be going on... Well, whatever. Might as well take up another track-]

Oiii! Did anyone plan to take up the mantle of the Seventh Heaven? It's just wrong for a population this big to not have a diner! [...Ignoring the existence of Azzip, that is.]

Also, Leon, status report! I expect you to have made some serious progress by now! And whoever that was who wanted to turn the springs into a bath house, I wanna hear from you too!

This is probably gonna sound like a silly question to you but what's Tanabata?

[And then comes a deliberately over-dramatic sigh before he goes into explaining with something which is slightly clearly excitement disguised as exasperation:] A celebration of the only time of the year that Hikoboshi and Orihime are able to meet each other. During that time, because they're being so lovey-dovey, they also take it into consideration to give out gifts to mortals. Wishes are granted because of this.

[...oh god last year's Tanabata.]

I was wondering if you were doing it this year too.

[identity profile] god-is-a-dude.livejournal.com 2010-07-02 02:25 am (UTC)(link)
Of course I am. Tanabata is of paramount importance to the lives of the Japanese!

[ooc: I'm not answering the post YET since I need to hear an answer from Eggy, but Sanji did ask about taking over Seventh Heaven if Cloud deems it okay. This is more an FYI so people know he ... idk has a bid on it, I guess. XD]

Wishes?

[Yeah, I knew Sanji asked, but I didn't know the results. Haruki would ask ICly though so I figured if you did get approval this would be a good excuse to get to start to... spread ICly. Or something. /didn't mean to step on toes]

Yes, wishes.

[Oh no, this is completely fine! I just wasn't sure who had noticed the entry and who hadn't on an OOC-level /o/ Like I said, soon as I get the answer, Sanji will probably pipe in]

You didn't tell me there was a 'proper way to submit' the wishes. Or is that just for your Brigade?

[voice]

A day where you can ask for your wishes to be granted, yet put no real effort into accomplishing them. Every year it's the same thing.

Oh, Tanabata! I almost forgot about it.

Well you haven't made any noise about it until now.

It has something to do with this Tanabata thing?

Oooooh! That sounds really nice!

'Course it's nice! It's a staple of any Japanese person's summer!

[identity profile] god-is-a-dude.livejournal.com 2010-07-02 03:21 am (UTC)(link)
I had other priorities until now, obviously. [READ: July snuck up on him]

Precisely! During Tanabata, there is an avenue for wishes to be granted!

Huh, I didn't?

I'll show you this Sunday then, right? [READ: We're on for Winry Day, right?]

Haah? It's a free pass, you just shouldn't expect instant results.

[Voice]

[identity profile] god-is-a-dude.livejournal.com 2010-07-02 03:28 am (UTC)(link)
I bet a lot of people did.

[identity profile] crytearsofjoy.livejournal.com 2010-07-02 03:29 am (UTC)(link)
Sure! Will it take long?

Can't blame them, really, though.

[identity profile] kakeravoyager.livejournal.com 2010-07-02 03:36 am (UTC)(link)
There is no such thing as a 'free pass' when it comes to wishes, Tanabata or not. Not even those two, who are so easy-going with how they grant wishes, would give one to a being who put no effort into making their wish reality. Thinking in such a way is naive.
