Who: Anyone! What: Remember that firefly festival Jeff mentioned? IT STARTS HERE. When: August 5-8th. Like the carnival, only the first day will be covered in this particular log.
Knuckles sat down under a nearby tree, a selection of tempura'd vegetables scattered around to be nom-nom-ed on. Which he was doing with much gusto.
Also sitting around him were a selection of fish and turtles he'd won... he felt sort of bad for them, in thier teeny tiny containers and bags so he vowed to win as many as he could feasibly carry, and find them more appropriate lodgings. He was also quite familiar with fireflies and thought them some of the nicest insects he'd ever encountered and perhaps sensing his positive vibes, he seemed to have attracted quite a number of them, zooming and swooping about him as he stuffed his face with overpriced battered broccoli and carrot.
Though, there was plenty left to be shared, should someone care to join him!
Lip, not one to pass up on a chance to dress up, was dithering around the various booths and stands in the fair. She won a few things, one of which a heavy duty fire fly balloon. Eventually, she noticed Knuckles sitting under the tree. Hey! She knew him!
Tails didn't know a festival was happening tonight. It was pure luck that he walked outside and had happened to hear people talking about going to it. So, here he was, eyes wide at how much was going on. "Wow..." he said, looking around.
It wasn't long before he spotted Knuckles, and ran over. "Hey, Knuckles!" he said, waving. "Didn't know there was a festival going on right now... Maybe I should invite Ribbon, eh heh..."
Slippy carried a few plastic toys in his hands that he won from various stands. His cheeks were oddly pudgy tonight too...and glowing.
Oh no, Slippy did not give in to his amphibious instincts and eat a few fireflies. That would be absolutely silly! ...Okay, he's eating the bugs. So sue him.
Out of pure luck, he came across Tails, Knuckles and Lip. So he waved to them before running up to the little group.
"Hey guys. Nice festival, huh?" he said in a cheerful but muffled voice.
"Hey Tails! Slippy! How you guys doing?" Knuckles said, clearing aside some bags and keepers filled with fish and turtles respectively so his three friends could take a seat if they wanted.
Of course, upon Slippy's arrival, the serenely floating cloud of glowbugs that had been surrounding Knuckles like some kind of otherworldly aura sped off through the nearest treeline - they knew bad news when they saw it! Well... most of them, at least.
"I got plenty if you guys want some of mine!" Knuckles offered. He'd noticed that Lip, especially, seemed to be eyeing his food and he didn't mind sharing one bit.
"It's only vegetables though - None of the meat or seafood, unfortunately for you guys, haha!"

"I'm doing great," Slippy replied before giving a big gulp, causing the glow in his cheeks to suddenly disappear. "I love a good festival!"

Lip shifted her gaze to the food Knuckles had. She tried not to drool.
"The food here is so good... I'm really liking this thing, so far!"
She also tried to ignore that she could have sworn she saw Slippy eating fireflies earlier. She wasn't talking about that kind of food.
