( open ) mid-autumn in gisela

Who: Anyone who wants to celebrate Mid Autumn Festival!
When: Roughly 11th September to 17th September.
Where: Gisela
What: A log for those who wish to use their tickets during Mid Autumn Festival! You can still use this log for visits outside of this week too (as a catch-all) but the script is for the festivities. Basically what you can do is hang out at the Inn, at Gisela, or check out the island's hot springs!
Rating: Probably PG only for if a lantern catches fire or something.


[Welcome to Gisela, the floating sky islands above Gresser! Known for its mystic scenery, hot springs, and the fact that you nearly died the one time you had a dungeon here, Gisela could be considered a popular vacation spot. Or at least it should be, because Vietnam invested good money into this inn.

Inn, you say? Yes, after the defeating the dungeon, Vietnam bought a business here, an inn near the hot springs, Dragon's Flight and Phoenix Dance. A normally quaint inn, it has transformed to offer more festivities. Staff will welcome you with elaborate fruit displays they will put in your room for you to admire (and eat). You may also like to sign up for mooncake making sessions, where you will be able to make mooncakes together with your friends and family! Share a moment with them, and then share the mooncake. Nice.

Lanterns are strung up, leading you out towards the gardens. The inn itself doesn't have a lot of space for A GREAT FESTIVAL, but on certain nights, there will be lion dancing and a few stalls opened up to sell souvenirs, all handcrafted thanks to Vietnam's instruction. Now, lion dancing usually consist of two or more people under a lion costume, however, some generous NPCs have lent them some tame magical lion beasts that look similar to the Asian mythological kind. However, Vietnam and Kija also found a pretty wild one that seems to be stuck eating some lion snacks, because they tried to wrangle it and before they could run, they were forced to commit. Kija named it Jae-ha.

Go further, and it seems like the hot springs that Vietnam has permission to use have also a bit of decoration themselves, with something heat and water proof, that is.

Should you just want to spend your time looking at the moon, darker, quieter areas of the gardens will let you do just that. Sit down and relax, of course.

If you don't really care about any of this at all, perhaps you'd just want to go sightseeing in Gisela!

And basically do whatever you want in this place, really. RELAX, HERO.]

Well, I'm always up for a party or two...

[Or twenty. Understatement of the century. Sometimes it feels like cheating, the life he lives here; they have a war to fight, to certainly, and enemies to kill, but outside of that it's all so carefree. Most days all he has to worry over is who's cooking for the day and what they're making. And that they don't blow up the house with it.

The real war, the war he left behind, seems so far away. Especially now, especially on a night like this. Maybe that's not such a bad thing.]


But as it was your day, here, it is your night. You've worked very hard, and so I leave myself in your capable hands.

[He trusts her. Trusts her not to throw another snake in his face, even. That's deep, man.]

[Gilgamesh dips his head in respectful recognition, fingers curling with ease around hers. He even preens a little at the flower; thanks to Setsuna and Adrasteius' influence, he's coming to see it as far less of a inherently feminine object and far more of something universally beautiful. And of course, it suits him very well, as do most accessories.

He straightens the rose with pride, too. Always looking his very best for his very favorite woman in all the world.]


I shall allow you the honor of leading me, then. Onward.

[...though, however close they become, there's always that indisputable air of arrogance about him.]

[Wait, did she just say...]

The lion?

[The lion...?]

The lion!

[THE LION.

THE LION, THE LION, THE LION, THE LION—
]


Lion first! We must go! We must, we must, we must...!

[The... lion... looks like that's where they're headed, or at least that's what where he's urging her. Way to plant that seed, Vietnam.]

[Pet him? Petting's for mongrels.

Gilgamesh launches himself full force at the lion and starts to wrestle.]


Come here, you beast! I'll show you who's the master here!

[Uh... the animal's well-trained, so there's no chance of any unfortunate mauling and it appears to tolerate the sudden burst of enthusiasm well enough, but... Vietnam, sometimes, your husband's pretty embarrassing. Extremely embarrassing. People are staring and gossiping over the crazy man who decided to entangle himself with a big cat.

Though it might be endearing in a weird macho sort of way. That's just how Gilgamesh operates, apparently.]

[Miraculously, Gilgamesh's clothes don't even get ruffled! Miraculously, Vietnam doesn't even get shoved off! They just wind up riding on top of the poor creature who bears them both, and now Gilgamesh sees fit to gallivant around as if he was always meant to do so. And perhaps he was.

Her husband, who tries too hard, but ever for her sake. For all his faults, in some ways, it's hard not to love him.]


I have mastered the dancing lion! All shall pay tribute to me as the one, the only, THE LION KING!

[AHHHHHHHHHHSEEEEEEEENYAAAAAAAADADABEESDABAAAAAAAAAAAAAA intensifies]
