[EVENT] Moon and Mirrors (Welcome Mingle Log)

[khuimods]

Characters: ALL
Date: January 15
Location: At the Dreaming Bridge and all over Aifaran!
Situation: A large influx of Dreamfolk arrive in time for one of the Lunar Festivals, and they're all invited!
Warnings/Rating: N/A


A surprising amount of Dreamfolk have arrived within a short time frame - a peculiarity remarked upon by a number of Aifaran's residents. It is unusual in that it coincides with a lunar festival, one which only happens every fifty or so years.

Newcomers will find the streets packed with all sorts of people, stalls of fried and sugared foods, carnivalesque games and rides, and all other manner of things to do. Merchants are very keen to get their wares out there, and the stipend given may just burn a hole in your pocket when you see what's for sale.

"Okay...and yeah, you too. I saw Mr. Klaus earlier and he remembers everything, so I'm really happy." Also he probably needed to buy the man a new hankerchief. "I forget if you know him or not."

Leo continued to snuggle the bibiru as he rambled on like he normally did when he had to fill the silence. "Do you know anything about our third roommate?"

[lasergrenades]

"Yeah, I know Klaus. He's a good guy." Imposing, but sweet and considerate. "I'm glad he still remembers. That was always the hardest with people who came back to Keeliai a second time, when they didn't remember being there."

It probably happened here, too. The Dreaming had some habits it stubbornly refused to break. Pepper glanced at the third bed, scratching behind the bibiru's ears. "Not much. Her name's Eve. Older than us. She seems nice."

"Mr. Klaus said I came apparently a long time ago, but I don't remember anything about that," Leo said to himself softly. He'd almost-well he HAD-forgotten Klaus talking about that in the haze of his eyes fucking him up. "I guess it must have not been the same me, like him."

He did turn his eyes towards the empty third bed, suddenly looking kind of sheepish. "Wait, you're saying I'm gonna be the only guy rooming here? Won't it get like-kinda awkward for you two?"

[lasergrenades]

"Oh, yeah. I remember that," she confirmed. "You weren't in Keeliai all that long, the first time." A month or two, maybe? Pepper could probably nail it down better if she weren't currently a bit miserable. "I mean... if Bakura comes back and he's not my Bakura... I can live with starting over, if we have to."

She'd much rather have the Bakura she knew back, but if that wasn't in the cards then she wasn't going to just sit around and mope. If he could mellow once, he could mellow again.

Pepper looked faintly amused by Leo's concern. "I was living with two guys in Keeliai," she shrugged. "Maybe not quite this closely, but I don't think it'll be a really big deal. We can ask about, like, partitions, though. Dunno what Eve'll prefer."
