[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.
OOC NOTES FOR PLAYERS | |||
|
24/7 Patrols for Hunters.
Just because it's Independence Day, it doesn't mean the Vigil stops working!
OTA, all day & all night
...You may also note that in his immediate vicinity, people committing petty crimes usually end up falling to the ground, convulsing until they're picked up by today's patrolmen. Is he doing that? Probably. ]
no subject
Eh, why doesn't he just go over and say hi and ask?
Have a Taning sitting beside you on the coastal wall suddenly, pulling out a smoke and offering one to you.]
Hey Dad, is that you putting palsy spells on people?
no subject
I am wounded by your accusations, son.
no subject
So... yes? [Laughs.] How have you been? It's been a while.
no subject
[ Reaching out to clap your shoulder. ]
I am well, as always.
[ Also surprisingly not killing criminals or blowing any limbs off of them. You can thank Asami for that. ]

OTA, morning afternoon an' evenin' kids.
You're in the thick of the festivities, he's got kegs of beer at his feet ( 'cos you know, riskbreakers don't get drunk ) and he gets to watch the young'uns have a taste of dealing with the masses. ]
During the Afternoon
"Wow! It's sure starting to get really crowded, isn't it. Right, Gray?" Temo asks, but when he doesn't hear a reply, he's glancing at his partner curiously. "Gray?"
Gray's managing a nod before sweeping his gaze over his surroundings again, his thoughts and feelings skillfully masked. Anyone with a keen eye, though, might catch the nostalgia and wistfulness in his eyes.]
no subject
He will, however, wander over. ]
Doin' alright there, Magallanes?
[ And there's a nod of acknowledgement and a smile for both you and that dragon of yours. ]
no subject
Inquisitor Duskrider! I... Uh... [it takes him a moment to compose himself before nodding in return] Si... Yeah. I'm doing alright here.
no subject
[ He's going to light up a cigarette and then offer you his pack in case you want one. ]
Enjoying the party?
[ Patrols during Independence Day are usually quiet. Ish. Besides, he spotted Tohru Fukuzawa sometime ago. That man kind of makes keeping a watch for petty crime obsolete. ]

OTA, the whole day
She ends up on the seawall, watching the reenactment of the Battle of Manila Bay. She just saw her soul mate (literal, in her case) blink off somewhere after talking with the Assassin. She'll bother him in a while.
She's just going to keep watching the reenactment until it ends. It's a glorious sight, in any case. Feel free to approach her, if the waves of potential menace she radiates doesn't end up turning you away.]
no subject
Better now than never, right? Have one Brianna Lopez falling into stride beside you. ]
Good evening, Naberius.
[ Dipping her head in respect, and smiling. Also holding out a full, unopened bottle of Baccardi 151.
She's done her research. ]
no subject
[She takes the bottle anyway, of course, cranks the lid off, and takes a long draught of the burning liquid inside.]
The gesture is appreciated, anyway.
no subject
You're welcome! I just figured that, y'know, you'd want something to drink while you're working.
no subject
I do not think this constitutes working by any means. Only that the air around the kennel becomes rather stuffy at times, is all. Dogs such as myself need to walk.
[Yes, she just referred to the Marasigan-Fukuzawa household as her kennel.]

late afternoon, sometime after she finishes up with Father Dragon
This lowly one is bowing deeply to you in greeting, Marquis. ]
My Lady.
no subject
Interesting.
Have a commensurately tiny bow in your direction.]
Good afternoon, Lyall.
[Yep. That's all.]
no subject
It is the proper thing to do, after all. ]

OTA, 6PM onwards
He blames Josh for the meticulous way he has the Lions out and about. It's a good kind of blame, though. They can patrol AND still enjoy themselves. ]
OTA, 6AM to 5PM
He'd snapped a photo of them on his way out, and you'll probably find him on the west end of baywalk, directing younger Oni-Tsukai to move sans masks unless necessary. ]
OTA, 8:00 - 10PM. Makati City.
no subject
-- and then it does a double take, notices you, and lifts one gauntleted hand in your direction for a vigorous wave. Then it's turning to his companion, and pointing in your direction.
Minato comes around a moment later, mainly by peeking just over the wall. Cue smile. ]
Working tonight?
[ Like he isn't. Welp. ]
no subject
Hey, Minato. Pretty much.
[ He was just about to light up a cigarette. ]
no subject
No date?
[ Since, yanno. ]
