[EVENT] Party at People Park

[silverwind9]

It's the anniversary of People Park's opening and as advertised, there's a stage set up for the talent show in the center of the park grounds, with a large half circle of seats set in front of it for the audience. Behind the stage is a large preparation tent for the performers; there's an opening at the back as well as one that leads directly up

*stands underneath one of the small covered tents, browsing through the baked goods on display with a small smile. She's accompanied by a handful of individuals in dark suits, including a dignified and rather fierce-looking old man who stands watching her some feet away*

*Wocky is wandering the park, searching for his father when he spots Viola. He quickly makes his way over towards her with a wide grin on his face*

Hey! Yo! Miss Viola! You came-- *stops when he sees the men she's with*

*Wocky puffs out his chest, trying to look dignified as he bows to her and the Family she is with* Hello, Miss Cadaverini. You and your Family are looking quite well this day! I welcome you on behalf of the Kitaki Family!

[compromisedwin]

*pays for the baked goods she picked out--a pineapple bun and a red bean one--and offers the the latter to the elderly gentleman before turning to Wocky. She seems amused by his formalities, and inclines her head slightly when he bows*

Hee... Hee... Hee...

Little kit... this is my grandfather.

Grandfather... this is Wocky Kitaki...

*the elderly man offers a gaunt nod at Wockys direction before tearing into the red bean bun in a rather terrifying manner*

[foxystyle_punk]

H-Hello Mister Cadaverini sir! *bows again to Viola's grandfather* I am glad to see you have made it on this fine day, sir! The Kitaki Family is... *tries to remember the things his dad told him to say in situations like this* The Kitaki Family is honoured to have you here t-today!

[compromisedwin]

*Bruto grunts approvingly and clears his throat immediately afterward, which leads into a deep cough. Viola keeps a hand on her grandfather's arm as he does so, speaking to Wocky only when he is finished*

...And we're... happy to be here...

*she glances around briefly*

Where are your parents, little kit...? You're.... wandering alone...?

[foxystyle_punk]

I'm lookin' for my dad an' I last saw my mom over there *he points into the distace before clearing his throat, puffing his chest out nobly once more*

B-but of course I can wander alone! I am a man of the Kitakis! I'm helpin' out with security even!

*swoops in like a hawk, though it is not entirely clear from which direction she came*

There you are, Wocky. Greetings, Miss Cadaverini, I-

*sees Bruto, a mix of respect and stern affection washing over her face as she bows to him*

Good afternoon, Don Cadaverini. I trust you are well? Enjoying yourself?

[compromisedwin]

Hello... Mrs. Kitaki...

*she laughs quietly when Bruto gives Plum a familiar nod and addresses her as 'Little Plum'*

I'm looking... forward... to the show...

[foxylittleplum]

That's great, Miss Cadaverini. I suppose I should go announce the first performance... Will you be staying for the entire show?

[compromisedwin]

I will be...
...I want to see... the winner...

*she holds onto Bruto's sleeve, glancing to him* Grandfather doesn't enjoy so much... noise... so he'll be leaving soon...

[foxylittleplum]

Of course. I want to think you for your presence, Don Cadaverini. You have honored us by attending this event, even in part.

*again she bows*

I trust that you will excuse me while I tend to the final preparations?

[compromisedwin]

*Bruto nods and waves Plum off in a manner that approaches on affectionate. When she leaves, he turns to go off as well, accompanied by Viola*

...Little kit... I'll come find you later...
