Video ✣ 031 ✣ Floating Lanterns of Dreams
If I could have everyone's attention!
I am Tamaki Suoh, owner of Café des Rêves and president of the Host Club. As you may have known, Somarium is throwing the Autumn Festival again this year, and the Host Club will be participating by hosting the grand finale for the event. On Sunday, August 28, instead of fireworks, everyone will be given a chance to send a floating paper lantern up into the sky!
They will look something like this-[steps back to reveal a table with said lanterns.]-with other styles available, of course, and will be constructed with specially designed paper. The candles will also be special so that no fires will be created and will burn out harmlessly. As for how they will float, we'll also have a bit a magic helping us as well. [wink~] Everyone will have a chance of constructing their own, but we will have plenty of pre-made ones available.
This event will be held in tribute to the lovely Miss Rapunzel, the inspiration for this. It is my heartful desire that she be able to see the floating lights that she has always dreamed about. [and is that a sparkle in his eyes?] But that leads to a little personal touch that I am adding to this event.
Not only will you be able to let the lantern fly, but also your hopes and dreams with it. Everyone who participates will be given a small piece of paper where you can write down one wish, hope, or dream and it will be attached to the bottom of the lantern like so. [and once again demonstrating.]
It's a little like the Japanese Tanabata festival, where you also write wishes. The only difference is it's normally tied to bamboo. It's normally held in the summer, but we just miss the date this month. So what better way than to combine these two lovely traditions and to do it in a world of dreams?
[and there's his usual charming smile.]
I hope everyone will be able to participate! And we will welcome any volunteers.
