introductory mingle: FLOWER FESTIVAL
what: Introductory Log and Flower Festival Celebration
when: April 2nd - April 15th
where: In several different locations in the downtown area of the Inhabited City.
warnings: please put any necessary warnings in the subject lines
In the days leading up to April 2nd, residents new and old may notice advertising around the city, everywhere from digital screens to paper flyers pasted on blank walls, all advertising an upcoming holiday: The Flower Festival. Celebrating springtime, beauty, joy, and togetherness, the festival heavily features floral themes and dancing. The advertising mentions that on April 10th, a paid holiday, there will be a Blossom Picnic, as well as lists of various public dances at clubs or other open venues, and adult raves.
The Flower Festival's main event is the Blossom Picnic on April 10th, but it also features traditions of sharing food and drink, and dancing that span over the course of the whole two weeks. There are a large variety of events going on throughout the city, from dancing lessons in any wide variety of traditional dances, to old-fashioned sock hops, to adult raves complete with mild party drugs. Feel free to use the prompts below or create your own event at any point during the festival, and if your character creates an event and hosts it in a top-level, you can submit that thread for extra bonus points.
i. blossom picnic
The main event that kicks off the second week of the Flower Festival is the Blossom Picnic on April 10th. A relaxed and low-key event, it draws several thousand people every year to the spacious Riverview Central Park, where there is a generous lawn lined with various blossoming trees, and families, found families, lovers, and groups of friends are encouraged to lay out a picnic blanket and share food. There will be live bands playing (but not loudly enough to distract from conversation and peacefully watching the petals flutter in the wind), a variety of demonstrations of traditional cultural dances from many different realities and planets, and a ton of ice cream vendors. This is an excellent festival not only for celebrating togetherness with the people who are already important, but for mingling and making new friends.
Characters may either pack their own lunches or they can purchase pre-packed Blossom Festival lunches. Stores and street markets are carrying a wide variety of specialty food that is only available at this time of year - predominantly pastries, an assortment of types of candies, and ice cream treats all in various floral flavors, as well as a sort of ambrosia salad based around a sweet rose-flavored cream and a native fruit that is bright green and tastes like a combination of peach and citrus.
ii. dancing lessons
Starting on April 2nd, there will be dancing lessons offered almost everywhere you look! From partner dances to group dances to line dances; sexy and sensual or innocent and childlike - almost any type of dance you can imagine is represented, from any reality or planet that has people in Riverview Quarantine.
Additionally, the Riverview Central Community Center has multiple rooms blocked off so anyone who knows a dance from home can teach it to others in their community - sharing is caring, after all. Characters are welcome to block off one of these rooms and offer lessons in any dance they happen to know from home (and these sorts of thread starters would be eligible for the mingle AC Point bonus)!
iii. flower festival dancing
This is pretty simply what it says on the tin - in almost every club, community center, or other public space, there will be dancing at almost all hours of the day or night, formal and informal. Musicians bring out their instruments and play in the street for demonstrations of cultural dances and music at the same time as clubs are offering VIP cover charges for exclusive dances, and you can find anything in between.
There are also many low-cover-charge raves that allow under-18s so younger characters can stay up all night and dance like crazy. The legal drinking age in Riverview Quarantine is 14, and so anyone over 14 can enter and indulge in a few drinks, dancing, and playing tag with a non-intoxicating version of the colored powder featured at the adult raves. There is copious amounts of security on site to ensure that everyone is safe, as well as nurses and off-duty police officers to offer advice or care for anyone who overindulges out of lack of experience.
Grab a partner, a group of friends, or just cruise and mingle the various dancing events.
Characters may also notice that most of the street markets and clothing shops are offering clothing that features floral patterns, flowers as accessories, and that show a lot of skin - for men, women, and anyone in between!
iv. adult raves
Advertised on flyers and digital screens around the city, made to pop as if they were under blacklight, is a series of adult raves that are happening in various large empty warehouse spaces around the city, including one that is listed as the danger rave and hosted in an abandoned factory outside the inhabited city walls. With bouncers at the door to ensure that anyone entering is 18+, the raves are comfortably adult in nature. Clothing is optional, showing skin is encouraged, and there are a lot of neatly tucked away spaces for attendees to get some time alone with one or more than one person, as well as spaces intended for orgies. The atmosphere is sex-positive and non-judgemental, open to any orientation or preference, with various forms of protection available for free, however, to ensure that everyone plays safe there are sober security teams out en masse at all premises to oversee the events.
(CW: DRUG USE) In each location, there is one specific room where attendees can enter, and dance or play tag with brightly colored powder that contains small amounts of a legal party drug commonly available in Riverview, which is absorbed through the skin. Not much more intoxicating than having a few beers, the effects of the drug are a pleasant low-key buzzing euphoria, positive sensitivity to touch, a heightening of desires for intimacy, and a mild lowering of inhibitions. Once a character has been hit with the powder, the color lingers on the skin so other attendees can know who has partaken, but once the powder makes contact with a surface it deactivates, meaning that partakers can safely dance with non-partakers without sharing the intoxicating effects.
Please be sure to warn in subject lines for any threads involving drug use. And remember, there is always security to intervene and make sure everyone is safe.
v. roommates or wildcard
Feel free to use this prompt to set up headers for a communal floor, or threads open to roommates for the purpose of getting to know each other. Or if you have an idea for a prompt that isn't in this list, set at the Flower Festival, feel free to write it up!

he is ASLEEP AND UNCONSCIOUS bones is just a pervert
That common hint of confusion hit him first, as his gaze focused on the unfamiliar surroundings and tried to make sense of it. It didn't take that long for the memories of the previous night to start coming to him, and when they did a lazy smile stretched his lips, and he moved just enough to be able to lift his head up and turn it to the other side so he could look at Bones.
The brightness coming from the window, though dimmed, had him squinting his eyes. With a groan and a low sigh, he forced just one of them open so he could catch a glimpse of Bones's frame, and he reached a hand out to brush his knuckles across the nook of his shoulder. "Mornin'."
PSH! Like he wouldn't possibly think thoughts like that if their positions were reversed.
Smoothing his hand down over the curve of Jim's ass, it was more a caress then anything else before it changed directions to skim up his spine. Huffing a happy sound as Jim touched him, he couldn't help but lean over and kiss the blonde's temple softly. "Mornin' sunshine." In truth, Leonard was a bit surprised how awake he was. He generally hated mornings and it took forever for him to just exist.
Then, not every morning was the morning after having sex with Jim Kirk for the first time. Or the fact that he slept better than he had in a long time. "Sleep alright?"
to be fair jim never claimed not to be a bit of a pervert sometimes.
"Very." The fact they'd pretty much exhausted each other thoroughly the night before probably had something to do with that, though. And honestly, just sleeping next to Bones helped Jim relax a great deal.
Turning on his side slowly, he scooted closer to Bones, curling up against him and settling his head against the nook of his shoulder, letting out a drawn out purr as he nuzzled the skin there. "What time is it?" Not that it mattered. Jim wasn't in a rush to go anywhere, so.
true true.. HE LOVES YOU ANYWAY (maybe a little for it too)
"Good. Glad ya got sleep." Hopefully even half as good as he got to sleep. "You're mighty good for better sleep, ya know that?" Chuckling gently, he shuffled himself around a bit to push his arm under Jim and pull him closer. Lightly pushing one leg between Jim's, he used his free hand to pull Jim's up by the thigh gently hooking it over his hip.
Humming a soft sound, he let that hand drift up Jim's back to thread his fingers through the blonde hair and play with the strands softly. "Dunno." He craned his neck looking for a clock and squinted at it. "Looks like its after 900. Got somewhere you need to be, darlin'?"
no subject
Letting Bones move him around as he liked, Jim settled comfortably, not caring much for what position he ended up in. The leg hoisted over Bones's side felt a bit awkward, but for now it didn't bother him much so he let it be, one of his hands sliding down so his arm draped over Bones's waist.
"Really?" He'd have thought they'd sleep 'til later, after last night. Pretty sure they hadn't even made it to six hours of sleep yet, and they needed at least that after what they'd been up to. Then again it also explained why Jim still felt so lazy and tired. "No, I'm good. Think I'm gonna doze off in a bit again."
no subject
One hand slid up his back to tangle in his hair while his eyes fell closed slowly. Humming a low sound, he let his head sink into the pillow even if it was tipped so that he could press his nose into the soft blonde hair. "Get some sleep, darlin'. Got no where else I'd rather be."
Not that he had to get to a shift at the hospital, but he had a feeling he'd take the fallout for not showing up instead of leaving this moment. He didn't want to leave the warmth of Jim's body. Not even a little bit.
no subject
The tips of his index and middle fingers drew soft circles against the nook of Bones's shoulder, cheek pressed against his chest. He could hear the doctor's heart beat slowly in his chest, the steady rhythm soothing him as much as the soft brushes of fingers through his hair.
"You know, last night... You know it wasn't the drinks or anything, right? I wanted to do that."
no subject
If Jim pulled something like that now in that point in their relationship as friends, he would be completely surprised and baffled that he never knew him at all. Slipping his fingers out of Jim's hair, he let the fingertips slide along the shell of his ear and the frame of his face before nudging his head up so he could look at him. It wasn't the most comfortable position, but he made eye contact with Jim all the same.
"I know what you look like when you're drunk, Jim. I know." He smoothed his thumb over Jim's cheekbone with a small smile. "Much as I wanted to be with you, if I'd thought you were even remotely drunk where it messed with your perception, I wouldn't have gone along with it." Moving his head that little bit, he kissed Jim's lips softly. "But yeah darlin', it's the same for me."
no subject
Still, it felt right to clear that up, even if he didn't have to. He tipped his head up to look at Bones when he guided him to do it, smiling at Bones's words and nodding. "Good," he said with an air of finality to it, shifting just enough so he could press his lips to Bones's in a soft, brief kiss, then settled back down on his previous position.
Tugging the covers up a bit more so they were almost up to his shoulders, he sighed and closed his eyes, relaxing on top of the doctor again, arm folded and hand resting on his chest. While it wasn't his plan to sleep for much longer, he didn't have any plans for today either, so if they did end up lazying around for the rest of the morning, he honestly couldn't care less.
no subject
"Even still, thanks for makin' that clear." Cause even if he knew, the fact Jim cared enough to tell him meant the world to him. Breathing in slowly, he kissed into that soft hair again. "I've got ya, Jim... just sleep."
Once more his hand slipped back up into his hair and gently tangled in those locks as he held Jim to him. Not hard. No, just a comfortable embrace meant to encompass him. Though... he'd do anything to protect Jim. That was for damn sure.
