✿ Chapter 010. [Video] (Day 125)

[burntviolet]

[ Rejoice, Asgard! There is a new feed, and surprise surprise, Hanako has decided to show herself on video from the beginning and without outside pressuring! Though the camera tilted in a way that doesn't show her eyes... it looks like she's still got lots of issues about it, but she's too much in a good mood to care, really. You can see her smile a little, hands joined together. ]

Good afternoon, everyone. This will be brief and rushed, but I could no longer hold back.

I would like to thank all the people who took part in the Travellers Festival. Every single one of you. The ones who made this possible; all the helpers who contributed with the booths, exhibitions, security guarding and the firework display; the Neighbors Club; the members of each house that put their abilities to the best use, and everyone else who decided to come and have fun with us. It's thanks to you that the party was a success eventually.

Here's to hope that events like these can be held in the future. What do you all think? Is there already something in your mind that could work for the next month? I wonder if we can hold events once a month, it sounds like a reasonable idea since it gives the right space to organize- uhm...

[ Now she's just rambling... better stop it before she embarasses herself. ] Err... anyway, obviously I couldn't meet with everyone in the festival; how was it? Did you have fun? Is there something that could have been improved? What is the thing you liked the most about it?

[ There is a pause, as you can see her rub her hands together... the nervousness is catching up with her. ]

Also... as a reminder, the invite is still open for the Nightlight club. We have the right number of members, and we'd love to see more people that enjoyed the books. As for the first meeting, I have yet to decide for a date. My apologies, it's just that the festival's organization took away my whole time. When could be the right time for you folks? I'm open for suggestions.

...

That is all. Thank you again... and have a good day. [ She reaches for the bracelet, and clicks the feed off. Phew. ]

You know it never would've happened without you making the banners and Conan organising it, right? I think we should be thanking you.

[ Still too nervous to use video on individual conversations. ]

I- I only did what I was asked to...

[integrous]

Events once a month, huh.. sounds like a plan to me! Especially if we get to show those gods what we can do! [ a loud laugh - and of course asahi is on video, when wouldn't she be.. ]

Sorry I didn't meet up with you at the festival though, it was so busy!

[Audio]

[burntviolet]

I think the same... the only problem is to find a theme for each event.

Yuki-san, how did you like the festival? Did you have fun?

[gunsgoldgirls]

Hey, good to see you smiling!

How 'bout a poker night?

[Audio]

[burntviolet]

Rudolf-san... were you in the festival, too?

Poker... night?

[holyfight]

It was a lot of fun, Hanako-chan! I'd love to do it again!

[Audio]

[burntviolet]

I'm glad it did good for you. I was worried that you'd get overworked from all the things we had to cook.

[this_chair]

Thanks to you too.

I think I'm going to go ahead with my idea.

[burntviolet]

You're going to make a ramen stand? Definitely?

[Satellizer comes into view and offers a polite nod and a small smile.]

I have to say it was wonderful. Even the build up process and working towards something as such was rather enjoyable. I think it more than did what it was meant to do and I'll be looking forward to more as such.

[burntviolet]

I'm very glad you liked it, Satellizer-san. It was meant for everyone to enjoy, and it served its purpose almost perfectly.

I heard you helped Hisao with the burger stand. Hopefully it wasn't too much work...

[pratentious]

Ah, so you were one of those that helped in its arrangement? It was quite the success, you should have our thanks.

[burntviolet]

Oh... thank you, but it would have been less enjoyable if less people partecipated. [ Self-consciously looking away from the camera. ]

It was excellent work, Ikezawa-san, even if I didn't get to catch much of it personally. The more of an ordered society around here, the better. [The better to be able to skulk in the shadows?! Or something.]

Euri-san pointed me towards your Nightlight club, by the way. Who else is coming?

[burntviolet]

Even if you stayed for a little while long, you still partecipated. I thank you for that.

[ Ooooh. A future male member?? ] From the top of my head, I remember that Rapunzel-san, Kanaya-san, Himari-san, and Yifei-san are going to join the club.

[hushedpenance]

Thanks, Hanako. If you see Conan before I do, could I ask you to thank him on my behalf?

It was a sunny day in a month of storming. I had fun, and... so did my companions. [ But of course Karu is going to show his support, and he enjoys being a part of things. And it was good to see her face on camera! ]

[burntviolet]

[ Even though it was only half her face, eventually. ]

I'll be sure to do that for you... and you deserved it, after all you've been through.

[burntviolet]

[ Siiiigh. Thank goodness that can't be heard over text. Stop trying to make arguments happen, Sollux! ]

I've read plenty books after I organized the club.

Did you come to the festival?

[digophelia]

[Alice just... hates social situations. This is awkward, she'll be nice. She'll try. She wants to say she didn't have fun and she likes going to the park but sitting on the roof is a plus.

Alas is the only plus.]

I admire you for your hard work.


[Forced. She tries.]

voice;

[burntviolet]

[ She tried, and it gets a mildly pleased, yet shy response from Hanako. ]

Thank you... everyone deserves admiration for either contributing or partecipating actively to the festival. I hope you had fun.

[wristbands]

[aww... Chie is proud to see Hanako using video! she's really come a long way, huh?[

We could definitely use something like that on a regular basis, Hanako-chan! If they're all as great as this festival was, I'm sure the city'll explode in color.

[burntviolet]

[ Half-face video showing, yaep! ]

We could even form a... committe of the sorts that can organize them every month.

[fiduspear]

It was a lot of fun, Hanako. I think that you, and everyone else, did an amazing job, in putting it all together.

[burntviolet]

... Thank you Tavros. Hanging out with you was fun, by the way. [ Tiny... smile. ]
