HSS Celebrates The Lunar New Year (a little late)

Who: HSS and Invited guests
Where: HSS Dorms
When: FORWARD DATED to Day 91, afternoon into evening

[ Heart Soldier Senshi's dorm has been completely redecorated today. Stepping off the elevator and onto the eleventh floor, you'll immediately find yourself greeted by rows of red-and-gold paper lanterns dangling from the ceiling and strings of colorful holiday lights set at the edges of the hallway. They light the way to the open doors, and inside yet more lanterns and twinkling lights festoon the the ceilings. Here, too, the walls have been lined with paper depictions of cranes, dragons, magpies, and the sun, a world of scarlet and gold. Underneath all this, the main table has been set with a crimson tablecloth and on top of that, plate after plate of traditional foods have been set out for guests to take from buffet style.

The bedrooms, too, are open-doored and emptied** of their usual furniture. Instead, they've been filled with chairs and tables obviously procured from the lobby downstairs and identically decorated for the occasion. Guests will find they can easily intermingle between the rooms to visit with their hosts and the other guests as well as eat. At each place-setting, guests will find confetti poppers, mini sparklers, and colorful squares of paper and tacks for guests to write a wish to hang on the long string that spans the back wall.

And for those people finished eating and looking for something fun to do, the arcade room is open and available with a whole host of games for competitive play. ]

[** All of the unnecessary furniture has been tinified thanks to AlcheME and stuffed into the closets should anyone care to go looking for it. ]

[ *** Although we've done our best to ping everyone who's invited, some of you play multiples and there's always the chance we could have missed someone. If you're uncertain if your character would have been invited or not, you can refer to this list. You can also DM any HSS member if you have questions on Discord or Plurk. ]

We... spoke, during the game. You didn't have to warn me, but you took the time to. I wanted to thank you for that.
unbr8kable: (look at how casual i am)

[personal profile] unbr8kable 2019-02-14 07:12 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, well... 'S not like it was that big of a deal... 'M just glad it didn't turn out to be the case. I mean, you were okay, right?
wonderlandgirl: (✽ a hesitation)

[personal profile] wonderlandgirl 2019-02-15 08:22 am (UTC)(link)
I was... and I know not to risk something like that next time, too. A friend of mine made a sacrifice to keep me safe, and I want to honor that by making sure she never has to do it again.
unbr8kable: (wistful)

[personal profile] unbr8kable 2019-02-15 09:18 pm (UTC)(link)
Good. Like--it's fine to take risks, but you wanna at least know what you're getting into, right? Then you don't have to have any regrets.
wonderlandgirl: (✽ was that a compliment?)

[personal profile] wonderlandgirl 2019-02-16 04:36 am (UTC)(link)
I don't think anyone in my unit was expecting me to end up in a game by myself - certainly not so soon. Otherwise, I'm sure they'd have warned me in advance.
unbr8kable: (alright)

[personal profile] unbr8kable 2019-02-16 05:17 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah... It's pretty recent news, and it worked out anyways. So no need to stress about it now. The whole point of having a party's to relax, right?
wonderlandgirl: (✽ maybe i'll follow her)

[personal profile] wonderlandgirl 2019-02-16 05:23 am (UTC)(link)
That's true. I really shouldn't be going on about this now, should I...?

Um, do you celebrate New Year like this in your own world? I don't remember ever doing anything at this time before. Well, I don't remember New Year at all...! But I do know this feels late for it.
unbr8kable: (hum)

[personal profile] unbr8kable 2019-02-16 07:21 am (UTC)(link)
I dunno... Maybe they do abroad, but doing it a bit after Christmas feels more normal to me. And even then, it's more a family thing, or maybe you go to the temple for offerings and stuff... What about you, you remembered anything yet?
wonderlandgirl: (✽ your sunshine girl)

[personal profile] wonderlandgirl 2019-02-17 12:31 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, only about selling tickets...! But I think the way we do it at home must be very similar to you. That definitely sounds far more familiar than this. Though I'm glad someone here wanted to do this! I don't think I'd be invited to anything like it at home.
unbr8kable: (yessss do it)

[personal profile] unbr8kable 2019-02-17 12:47 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah... So getting it now's a bonus. Educational, or something.
wonderlandgirl: (✽ wonderland girl)

[personal profile] wonderlandgirl 2019-02-17 01:34 am (UTC)(link)
It's definitely an interesting way to learn. It must have taken forever to organize!
unbr8kable: (knight and day)

[personal profile] unbr8kable 2019-02-17 01:57 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah... Guess some people really have the touch. To compete, we'd have to step it up, I guess... If you were gonna do some kinda shindig what would you wanna do?
wonderlandgirl: (✽ are selfie sticks cheating?)

[personal profile] wonderlandgirl 2019-02-17 02:17 am (UTC)(link)
Hmm... I'm not really sure, you know? The closest thing to now would probably be Hanami, and I'm not sure how much fun that would be without anywhere much to really view the cherry blossom. We could have some kind of picnic around then anyway, I suppose? In the real part of the park?
unbr8kable: (hum)

[personal profile] unbr8kable 2019-02-17 03:02 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah. I mean, there was fall colors viewing before, so it'd make sense if they had some cherry blossoms from somewhere, right? It'd be fun, maybe we'll get something a little more scenic by then, too.
wonderlandgirl: (✽ wonderland girl)

[personal profile] wonderlandgirl 2019-02-17 04:05 am (UTC)(link)
There were? Maybe we will get to view the cherry blossoms, after all. I suppose there aren't that many of us, after all... the part of the park we do have might be enough, right?

[personal profile] unbr8kable 2019-02-17 09:52 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah. They're big into the seasonal stuff, so that's something. Probably have cherry blossom flavor stuff at the cafe, too. A flower-viewing party'd be pretty cool when you think about it!
wonderlandgirl: (✽ magical idol time)

[personal profile] wonderlandgirl 2019-02-20 05:51 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, wow... I hope they do do something now...

Well, if they don't, I'll do it! All I'd need to do is work out where everyone could go. Then we could all bring food, and swap with each other.
