Cherry Blossom Evening Party

You have received a private message:

Throughout the week, Hamuko has messaged the vast majority of people she's met so far - and eagerly invited them to come meet at Inokashira Park starting at 5pm.

⋆🌸₊˚⊹♡❀˖°🌸⋆

You're invited to an evening sushi-party-turned-hanami-picnic-party! I've organized a bunch of cognitive chefs and performers to come to that park on the listed date/time.

I've sent this to you because you were part of one of the three teams that helped with fighting Fatalis or rescuing Falcon and Wolf (or are Falcon and Wolf themselves!!) - we've all busted our butts a lot lately, so I think we deserve to have something nice together too!

Of course, the party is open if you have any +1s or more. But before spring turns into summer, let's celebrate what we've all accomplished together!

The Venue...


Inokashira Park has a lovely river and trail and a phenomenal collection of cherry blossom trees. They're in the tail end of their season, filling the air with petals like snowfall.

In a large open area, Hamuko's arranged a ton of picnic blankets for people to claim and sit down on, though each blanket is HUGE to accommodate people sitting with as many people as they can handle! There are cozy pillows for sitting on too, stacked neatly to be borrowed.

There's a truly humongous row of tables laid out with an impressive amount of sushi presented. With a few trucks nearby, it seems there's a few sushi chefs making fresh platters of it to lay out through the night.

Similarly, there are food carts along the trails if you're not in the mood for sushi and would rather have some more traditional fare like dango, taiyaki, matcha, takoyaki... it's got the place lively and smelling fantastic! There's sake for the adults, and some cherry-blossomed themed mocktails for minors.

Activities

There's a few set out activities besides just chowing down and socializing or walking along the lantern-lit trails under the cherry blossoms! Inoshikara Park has always had cute little swan pedal boats or regular rowboats for 'rental' (not that money matters here).

The area is SO pretty, perfect for taking pictures to have as keepsakes. There's even a booth to claim a yukata and privately change into it, if you want to go the extra mile!

Finally, in lieu of a traditional band or modern concert, Hamuko has picked out a large set of speakers connected to a small karaoke stage and screen - menace the party with your sing-along! Get a little boost to your Guts!!

Ren squeaks. He's...he's on stage, right...

...eep.

His face is even redder than Shiro's and Goro's.

"We should really start the song." So Shiro's just going to... do that. Yes. That seems like a reasonable and appropriate action.

Time to jam out!

Uhm.

Uhm.

The music kicks his mind back into action!

"It's now or it's never, and I've got to make my decision..."

Raven fidgets a little. The last "song," if you even call it that, was just rap. It wasn't... singing.

But... damn it! He can't back down from a challenge.

"This time it could be my moment..."

Shiro, far perkier by comparison, jumps right in. "Is this a mirage or a chance to fulfill my mission?"

"A RIVER IN a dRY LAND!!"

Oh, oh god. The voice cracks are real and he's screaming.

"THE LaST ACE IN A LoST HAND!!"

Wow. That is... absolutely a voice crack. Raven blinks a few times, unsure what to say, but...

Solidarity is important. So, um... Raven raises his voice as well.

"When the hope of new beginnings—" Shit. Crack. The cursed crack. "...burned our feet. N—Now we need it!"

Hiro, completely unfazed, keeps at it. "A heartbeat for a tin man! An oasis in a singed land!"

"I'm keeping my balance..." Ren stumbles over the words, fired off lightning fast. "AndI'mStandingOnRazor'sEdgeNow!"

"Move quick or my life is over!" Shiro cheerily sings along.

Raven... hesitates a moment, but just a moment. "One strike, just a feint, then... I'm outta his field of vision." Oops. Another voice crack.

Perhaps he should just resign himself to this, really. Singing is hard when you have a pubescent voice that won't cooperate.

"A RIVER IN A DRY LA--"

He definitely just jumped the gun on the chorus. Whoops!

"Strikequick-- mylife is oooveer!"
