[Open, Major Event] 12 June 2066








Over the course of the last week, you'll have likely noticed the buzz and excitement that's been building all around Metro Manila -- if you've been around awhile, you know what time of the year it is. If you're new: well, this is an experience you're sure to enjoy.

The festive mood surrounding Philippine Independence Day is hard to miss. Wander around the metropolis and you'll note that the streets are filled with tourists and locals; turn one corner and you'll see parades, turn another and you may be treated to performances set up on strategically placed stages.

As for Falner, the colors of the Philippine flag seem to be everywhere you look: the kids who live or study at the estate are mostly running around with their faces painted. If you wander down towards the Fair Grounds in the South District, there are a couple of booths set up offering anything from body paint and temporary tattoos to local delicacies. West District establishments The King's Rest and Liquidated also have special treats aligned with the theme of the day. There's also talk about the annual street party which will be held over at the Baywalk later this evening, and the younger initiates are abuzz over the yearly light show held over Manila Bay that showcase reenactments of all the major battles all the way up to the Darkest Vigil.

Independence Day is also not all that's being celebrated, because for Keepers of the Vigil and supernatural communities all over the world, today marks the second anniversary of Arcis Fortress City.

......You have a piece of her soul in you... how?

[ Because he Has To Know ok? ]

And you know what? I actually like Mister Fukuzawa. I think I'll go ask him, too.

[ Maybe it says something that this kid would go to Tohru first before you, Taning. ]

... you do know about Legacies, right? And your funeral, kid. Just remember that I was his student before I became his son, and look what it did to me. I used to be such a spineless guy, too...

[On second thought...]

Actually, you know what, go for it. You never know, right.

I've read about them? Kind of? [ Not much; he sort of fell asleep because it was 3 in the morning, and he hasn't gone back to read up on it again because there's so many things to read about he can't even. ]

I think I will. [ Only if the Kaiser says no, though. ] I'm not spineless like you.

[He laughs at you, only because the last person to call him spineless ended up without a spine. You're just adorable.

Also, he's laughing because the thought of you learning under Tohru is precious, but so is the thought of you interning under Lia.

He'll stop laughing after a few seconds, though. After that, his expression becomes questioning.]


How much have you learned of your Primary Arcana? You strike me as the studious type, you should have learned at least a bit by now.

[ He's glaring at you through the top of his glass as he slowly drinks his jack and coke. You are the most horrible person ever.

Still, he doesn't know why exactly he's entertaining you. Possibly because he's buzzed. ]


A bunch. Mind and Space is kinda fun... and I think I can almost communicate telepathically!

[ Almost. Not quite there yet. ]
