11 AM TO 5 PM

[Around 11am to 5pm, it's a beautiful and moderately warm day (with little spurts of light rain here and there, and the occasional faint rainbow), with picnic tables nearly buckling under the weight of every kind of food and cooking skill contributed, and flute music fills there air along with the smell of spring rain and fish and vegetables cooking over an open fire. Don't get too close to the lake, or Giant Squid-tan might get handsy. (Don't worry, he just wants to play! And maybe tear your legs off~) Colorful kites fill the sky. Be sure to share, there's not enough for everyone at once!]

[Start threads taking place during the day here.]

[Sora was a little late, but that was only because he had taken forever, trying to drag Leon along, of course. The man needed to be more social and make friends! He thought, it was worth a try, at least. But, he arrived, bringing Kairi (hand in hand) and having headed off with Jr and his Visitor, exclaiming in glee over the food.]

11 AM TO 5 PM

[To be fair, Yuffie could've helped Leon with dishes. Except he was determinedly not letting go of her. Which was a shame, as there were lots of 'collectibles' around. Still, it didn't matter much. There was always another time.]

[Kairi walked with the rest of the group, cheerful and sunny despite the spotty weather. There were new people, old friends, and lots of things to do and see in this new place--no wonder she was practically bouncing with excitement.]

[And ignoring the likely grumpy looks Leon was passing his way, countering with a smile as they finally arrive, pausing. So much food! Beaming to Kairi before tugging her hand and leading her to the buffet set up. Because. He's a growing boy. He's always hungry! Food first. Then he could mingle with her and meet some new people. Right? Right.]

*Jr. was just as eager to dig into the massive piles of food as Sora and was grinning from ear to ear. True to his word, he had drug Nigredo along and was standing next to his younger brother.* Damn, I haven't seen this much food in one place since I got here.

11 AM TO 5 PM

[Like was often the case when around his older brother, Nigredo found himself being easily dragged to the social gathering, and now stood beside his elder brother taking in the same sight.]

I hope you don't plan to eat it all.

[tobiranomukouhe]

I know! Tell me about it, Jr! Let's dig in!

[And proceeding to grab a plate and help himself.]

[Sasuke stood where Al suggested he played and at the time suggested, and did so. As nervous as he was to be playing music in front of tens of people - having never played in front of anyone before - he didn't let it affect him. His eyes stayed only partially open as ebony changed to crimson. As he played a melody that reminded him of Konoha, he intertwined a genjutsu with it, but did not exceed a 2.5 meter radius from where he stood.

It wasn't harmful, and he hoped no one panicked. All they would see were glimpses of his previous home. The vast amounts of trees and greenery inside and out of the village, a basic view from atop the gates surrounding the village. The village at night, with lights shining on the four faces of previous Hokages at Hokage Mountain. Peaceful images. Nothing too revealing.

He played through the melody thrice, each time showing different views of the village. He had even gone as far back as showing the single festival he barely had memories of as a child. It was almost fitting for this time of year.]

-=Hark! A saucy wench hears the melody and with swaying hips and a face hidden behind a mask, she comes forth, sashaying with her fan fluttering here and there. The music was lovely, and it lent to her dancing around the piper, blissfully unaware that she was just outside of the magic that could keep others in thrall with visions of another place.=-

[sauceytomato]

[Urk. He saw it out of the corner of his eye, but that was as much acknowledgment as he could muster in the middle of playing combined with genjutsu. He couldn't even think of the oddity of it, since it would mess with his genjutsu.

Oh well.]

[a_wenches_life]

-=As Sasuke played, Gong-gil continued to dance, telling a story with his hips and intricate motions of his hands. It seemed he was 'modelling' Sasuke. Just as a hand model or one of those girls from the Price Is Right sprawled over a prized item, Gong-gil seemed to be telling everyone who bothered to watch that Sasuke was a 'great catch' and that ladies shouldn't wait for this one to slip by them. All this with just his fan, his dance, and a mask.=-

[sauceytomato]

[My god, if he had any clue what the hell you were doing...]

[a_wenches_life]

-=And that is the awesome of a really good actor. Gong-gil continues on the fine 'selling points,' fluttering his fan here and there to keep the crowd engaged.=-

[You have a very enraptured toddlercar staring at your illusions, duckbutt.

Don't much blame her, though. Even here in Adstringendum, she's never properly seen a forest that isn't made out of freaky stick-trees.]
