Event Twelve

[awashmods]

I am a reaper whose muscles set at sundown. All my oats are cradled.  But I am too chilled, and too fatigued to bind them.  And I hunger.

ou know what's probably amazing? Waking up to your previously normal front door suddenly being covered by a huge, autumn-themed wreath. Or perhaps you're close enough to the center of the Town to look out your window and get an eyeful of that effigy, staring soullessly at you? The point is, there's a festival going on! The Town's been decorated accordingly (don't trip over sudden bales of hay), and towards the center of the Town, there are all sorts of fun games, tables of food, and other amazing things set up. Go prance onto the stage, sample some of the amazing food, convince one of your friends to play one of those bobbing for apples games... Enjoy it! There doesn't seem to be much of a catch this time. (At least, not until you eat the food, and then you'll figure out just what that "catch" is.) Welcome to Awash's twelfth event log, everyone! Further information on this event can be found here at the OOC post. You are welcome to start your own posts or logs for this event as well. If there are any questions, please ask them here. Thank you!

[Shouto, being lazy has never looked this ridiculous. He'll just float here patiently as Uraraka controls her laughter. It's fine, honestly. It's really ridiculous, after all.]

I can't remember. I stopped counting after four.

You have trouble with this too? [Then again it's not like any of them have high heel practice. It's not like they walk around in Midnight's boots.]

[thriftea]

[Laughing at him to his face is surely a sign of how close they've gotten. She'll think about this later and smile, but for now... yeah, she's grimacing, because HEELS!!]

A little? I mean, I've worn heels before, but I've never worn heels that were this tall. And the roads here are so uneven...

[Roads? Sidewalks? Dirt paths? Everything she's walked on has been rocky as hell. Case in point: these cobblestones she's slowly picking her way over.]

Maybe I'll just ask Okuyasu to carry me everywhere! And you can ask Deku-kun to carry you everywhere.

[She's half-joking, but honestly, it sounds pretty appealing! She just hasn't seen Deku's, um, interesting costume yet. RIP, you sweet, sweet boy.]

[glaciers]

[HEELS!! What an awful footwear decision. He misses his boots so much.

Wait...

Wait just a minute.]

Uraraka, you're so smart. Izuku's so strong. I bet he'd do it.

[Never mind the... the bunny costume.]

[thriftea]

[Listen, Ochako also thinks this is an A+ idea, but—um? She can't help but to blink back at him in surprise.]

You think so? [About her being SO SMART, of course. But... yeah, okay. She just has to smile at this.] But Deku-kun will totally carry you if you ask! He can give you a piggyback ride!

[Or should he cradle Shouto in his arms, princess style? That's what she's imagining, and it's cute... until her imagination runs wild and she pictures Shouto dressed in a full-on princes gown. PFFFFFFFFT.]

[glaciers]

Yeah, I wouldn't have thought about it. [Because sometimes Shouto just... doesn't... think... Oops.]

A piggyback ride sounds nice. But floating's good too.

[His feet don't hurt if he's straight up not using them.]

[thriftea]

[P-Pfft. She grins back at him, and if it's a slightly shaky grin because she's trying not to laugh again... well, sue her. Shouto is unintentionally hilarious.]

Yeah? I'm glad! [She gives his arm a gentle tug, drawing him a liiiiittle closer to the ground. No need to float up into the sky!!] If you want, you can stay like this until we find Deku-kun. I don't mind pulling you around! It's good practice.

[And she can probably—no, definitely handle heels better than he can. It's a small sacrifice to make for her friend.]

[glaciers]

Practice for floating people around?

[Though honestly Shouto's enjoying his floaty excursion. 10/10, would do this again.]

I would. Thanks.
