Banner displayed inside the train station, outside city hall, and on the most used residence buildings.

Follow the arrows.
So you're unaware. Maybe new. Or maybe you just didn't care the first time you saw it. That's fine. Between the banners hanging around key areas, and the flyers quickly drawn up in a similar fashion scattered across the city, it's hard not to know something is going on -- and there's helpful arrows, chalked on building walls and the streets the day of the party, to let people know where to go.

The Rooftop

A splendid scene awaits those who travel heavensward. Fairy lights connect the corners of the roof access building to metal poles at the corners of the building itself, lifted by cylindrical supports where needed, each one held straight by pots filled with well-packed dirty and stone. There's multicolored stars hanging from some of the lights, while various painted flowers hang on others, and what greets the ears first is some royalty free party music played from a CD player off the the side.

There's a long folded out table in the center for those who'd like to share cuisine, just set and serve yourself! Nearby is a space for Daan to do some bartending as well, a man who can make a multitude of cocktails and mocktails for those who want something less alcoholic. Also, pints of various ice cream flavors in a cooler!

Don't worry -- they won't have any odd effects on them, Don verified the lack of them herself. Not all of them are normal. Think loaded baked potato weird.

For those who'd like a quieter space, there's beanbags and a swirly, fuzzy carpet to sit on more away from the center of the party area. This'll be a great time to play some games, such as truth or dare, spin the bottle, and... whatever else you play at parties. Get to know your fellow man and such. Play the violin.

Naturally, no party... hosted... by Don Quixote would be without a space to fight, if one wishes to show off a little! It's also taking place on a swirly fuzzy carpet, just so no one smashes their head in, and there's a neat little banner hanging down from a string of lights that says thus:

WIN THREE MATCHES AND A PRIZE AWAITS THEE!!!!!!!
- NO KILLING
- HANDS ONLY

What the prize is, no one knows. But come find Don Quixote with your battle scars and she'll grant it -- and stick around a while, 'cause this party's gonna end with a bang... that is, with homemade fireworks donated by "a friend" through Junpei.

Anyway, have fun!!! Share words about your worlds!!! The society your characters are from, the cuisine they've brought, how they're working out in the city -- help the new kids along, too. There's more vets here now than there were a few months ago, after all.

In that case, shouldn't you find a roommate too?

( no objections to where he's decided to roost, but she's gotta point that out. )

[wordchain]

[ At that, he looks a little taken aback. Yes, Angela has a point — nothing sets him apart, so by that reasoning, he shouldn't stay somewhere alone, either. It doesn't surprise him that no one has approached him, however, and in any configuration, all of their preferences are likely to clash. ]

...The current arrangements are appropriate, and my movements won't be unpredictable.

[ It's Fine. He will do his stretches and yoga without anyone walking in on him. ]

[worldexecute]

( ...Well, there is a reason she went with Gebura instead of asking Roland if she could stay with him, even if they are the besties of all time have a close relationship... )

Very well. I trust you'll let any of us know if you run into trouble. ( Is that too friendly? ...it's fine. ) I... may also stop in to check in on you, and the other two as well, from time to time. To ask after what you've learned, naturally.

( jjjjjjjust like the library, yeah! yeah. Nothing else. Nothing more, nothing less. )

[wordchain]

[ Just like the Library, and future Angela won't pay attention to birthdays or softening the blow of serious meetings at all. Yesod also isn't taking note of anything that might be there to interpret between the lines. ]

Yes, these are sensible plans. I'd like to investigate the kiosks and the suggestion box further. Should I discover anything new, I won't withhold it.

[worldexecute]

( Go back to your Information Team roots and start expunging info instead of keeping it, yeah. )

The suggestion box... ( ... hm. ) I wonder if anyone's wishes have been granted yet.

( Should she put one in? What would she even suggest they add. )

If you were going to put something in, what would it be?

[wordchain]

[ Do you really want that, Angela... The days of pixelated despair... ]

According to Don Quixote, her suggestion has yet to receive any response.

[ Here he considers whether he should explain the details of that particular suggestion. ]

To conduct our test, I intend to rephrase it, as well as ask others for a list of requests to collect and submit at the same time.

[ And since Angela seems to be giving it some consideration herself... ]

Do you have ideas to add, Angela?

[worldexecute]

( you know what it sucked 99% of the time and she hated it but sometimes it's useful-- )

Me?

( angela frowns slightly, gaze dropping. something... that she'd like to see... something she'd like... mmmm...

after a moment, she shakes her head, slow. )

I can't think of anything. ( the obvious concerning books aside. ) Let me know before you submit them and I'll give you something then.

( certainly she'll be able to think of something then. )

[wordchain]

[ He accepts Angela's apparent need for more time with another nod. It's prudent to approach the planned testing carefully, in the event that it does trigger some response once certain unknown requirements are met. There is no doubt in his mind that Angela has ideas to choose from — it's a matter of settling on the most appropriate suggestions and determining how best to put them forth. ]

I'll keep you informed. At the moment, I am only aware of the wish for a zoo, as an example. It's unclear whether this request has simply been discarded as unrealistic.

[ If there are no animals or insects anywhere, hopping rabbits are unlikely to materialize... ]

[worldexecute]

( Unrealistic... she supposes she hasn't seen any living animals. )

She asked for a zoo. ( ... ) From what I've been able to glimpse of her, that certainly tracks. She seems to be a fairly whimsical person.

[wordchain]

That was my impression as well.

[ Don Quixote is unusual, to sum it up. She also seemed eager to converse with Angela after seeing that drawing of... Ppodae. Reminded of the talk of bouncy castles, Yesod decides that these might make for another test suggestion. ]

I expect that we will see more of her.
