"Do they ever stop partying? Probably not...I gotta say that's one thing Eddan has going for itself..."
A Festival for the Sunlight
Eddan prides itself in its many festivals. While the summer solstice doesn’t have much religious significance to the city, it’s surged back into popularity as a holiday partly due to the city’s curfew. More daylight means more time to be out and about and to party!
It’s for this reason that the rest of the week is a holiday for most of the city. Everywhere people look, the city is decorated in bright flowers and lights that light up even the darkest of night (although everyone is warned to stay inside regardless).
A music festival with rock and electronic concerts is being arranged in Point-à-Tarte's park. Many great local acts are scheduled to take the stage until sunset, though that won’t be enough for some. The party will move into bunkers and underground clubs once the sun goes down, with the pounding beat of the music lasting until dawn.

The Arrows Never Lie
However for the Awakened, they will soon notice something odd. Some of the festival goers around them will take on a different appearance if they don’t look at them directly. If that’s not enough for someone to notice, the red arrows that begin to appear over their heads with the same symbol from Applenet is a pretty big clue.
No one else seems to notice, however. Not even the people themselves.
However if an Awakened person gets closer to one of them, a disclaimer will appear on their phone.
"Don't overdo it, got it? If you shake their brain too much, it might be dangerous. But keep a close eye on them for me, won't ya? Don't give them multiple headaches! That's bad!"
[OOC: If Awakened speak with non-Awakened characters, their conversations may bring little bits of memory back to them. However, be careful! If they overload them with memories they might attract the attention of something they wouldn't want to. Let us know if that happens!]

no subject
[She's already looking over Emily's shoulder at the crowd, trying to see if she can figure out who the culprit is. Because that is simply unacceptable behavior, no matter who or where you are, and something needs to be done about it.]
no subject
I couldn't really tell you! The crowd's so big I don't even really know when exactly it happened.
no subject
If I went around and got up on stage between songs...
[Though, admittedly, "sensible" at this point really boils down to talking through her plans out loud instead of acting on pure impulse.]
no subject
Mm, well, I'm probably going to go get some ice cream. You want any?
no subject
[She boggles at her like she can't believe what she's hearing.]
Ta-- That is...I need to do something about this! This can't be allowed to go unpunished!
[She's completely sincere about it, which is the most dangerous part.]
no subject
[and there's Emily, just blithely steamrolling along like the other girl hasn't said a goddamn odd thing since they bumped into each other. she's got a much cooler head under pressure than she gives herself credit for.]
Justice takes a lot of energy, right? It'd be better if you fueled up now and took them by surprise.
no subject
You're just trying to distract me!
[She deserves a gold star for figuring that out.]
no subject
[not to mention reason out why it'd be fine to take a break and then come back later. don't be so suspicious, girl, it's rude!!]
no subject
But --
[It would be rude to turn down an invitation, so now she's caught between proper courtesy and Justice. This is terrible.]
But if I went, they would be gone, and...
[THIS IS A DILEMMA.]
no subject
[she tilts her head back in the direction of the concert with an easygoing smile.]
I don't think anyone's going anywhere for a while.
no subject
[But she'll herself be led along. She knows when she's been defeated. Kanae used to do this to her all the time.
Kanae! That's who she was thinking of!]
no subject
So how long have you been at the festival?
[hey, might as well actually have that chit-chat as they traverse to the ice cream stand. keeps the mind busy.]
no subject
[She's still struggling to switch gears. It's hard to flip the vengeance switch off.]
I came here with my brother, but he's off with his friends so I had to find something else to do.
no subject
[it's almost as if they knew what to do that would be the most inconvenient. the thought makes Emily giggle.]
You've probably seen more than me by now, though! I keep getting too distracted by things to really look around.
