"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!]

For some people, the latter outweighs the former, even if it's just plants.
[....Probably weren't expecting this sort of conversation during plant shopping, huh, Emily?]
no subject
If someone's thinking that seriously about this sort of thing I don't think it's 'just plants' to them.
[like, for real. most people don't give that much thought to the statistics of the future for things they believe to be trivial.]
But risk and reward can only take you so far. Nothing's set in stone, after all, no matter how likely it looks.
no subject
Even with how much of an impact the past has?
no subject
[she trails off for a moment, sliding a plant towards her. this one was definitely a purchase - and a convenient way to make sure she was saying exactly what she wanted to here.]
If you stay in it forever, then that's all you're going to see.
[and that wasn't living. whatever troubles her heart has suffered since those awful thoughts started entering her mind, that's something Emily is certain of. the past couldn't be all-consuming.]
no subject
[And then, rather abruptly-]
The Flower Festival.
no subject
[she'd like to think that she's been doing pretty well with rolling with the punches lately, but this sudden left turn has left her slightly mystified. she's not entirely certain how his response correlates with the rest of their conversation.]
no subject
...For next year.
[That clarifies everything, right?]
no subject
I think that they'll really like that. Thank you. [a pause, and then she giggles.] And even if they don't, I know I will.
no subject
...You asked.
[Just like that, taking one of the plants, he moves away and heads to the register. Not the neatest way to end a conversation, but it's what he knows.]
