(open.) Shall we dance? 夢のように踊りましょう

WHO: Mari & Everyone!
WHERE: Recolle Square + Around for Bingo Stuff
WHEN: Friday July 14 + Throughout July also for Bingo
WHAT: DANCE PARTY + Bingo Overflow (there's a trend here.)
WARNINGS: Nothing yet!! Mari is too pure


eins. SET UP
[ While some people might be lamenting their middle square and the oddly specific problems it poses, Mari is thrilled with hers. It's going to be her first real, actual debut as a DJ. Which means, of course, she needs to make sure people come. It would be horrible to hold a party and have no one there to dance, but luckily for Mari she's got tons of resources at her disposal. It's nothing to create some fun fliers and hang them around town in the days leading up to the event. Different fliers have different designs ranging from the truly weird to the kind of cute like she's trying to cater to several different tastes. but the information is all the same: Recolle Square, Friday July 14, Dusk, DANCE PARTY.

Mari's there ahead of time, of course. She's "borrowed" some employees from her family to help her set up all her music equipment, lights, and set out tables. Smiling (and slightly confused, but never the less enthusiastic) NPCS set up tables full of glow sticks and various kinds of glowing accessories (necklaces, bracelets, rings) in bright colors although Mari seems to have brought with her two purples for every other color.

There's a table of refreshments, too, manned with a few more of those NPCS diligently watching the table to make sure nothing gets tampered with. Almost everything is in a bottle or a can, though. Sealed and non-alcoholic and it better stay that way. There's some "food" too but it's mostly candy, especially those candy necklaces and ringpops for some reason. You might get lucky to snag something like a bag of peanuts but the sugar rush here was clearly not thought through.

Mari's fretting a little bit as she works to set things up, this is her first real set ever, of course, and you might catch her as she flutters from place to place, double checking that everything is absolutely perfect.. It'll be great.

Won't it?]


zwei. DANCE EXHIBITION

Hallo Recollé!!

[ At dusk, just as promised and as people (?) are filling it, Mari greets everyone. she's dressed a little bit not like one would expect for a DJ, because her outfit is a little flashier than that. she's also not standing behind the turntables yet. ]

We have something special for you tonight!! Let me introduce Li-Na and Kanan, two beautiful ladies who I am going to help show you something great.

[ Mari's philosophy is that getting one bingo space done is great but multiple bingo spaces are even better, so that "something great" is a dance routine. mari starts the music and the three of them take their places.

the dance choreographed entirely by li-na and mari's happy to help her shine, letting li-na take the center. they'd learned it pretty quickly, but she's pretty sure she's got the hang of the steps. she wants to do the best she can for li-na, it's a big day for her, just like it's a big day for mari's debut as a dj!! their dance is a mix of beginners pop dance move and some more classical ballet, showcasing a lot of what li-na does best.

making multiple dreams come true in one night. now that's really special. ]


drei. PARTYING PARTYING & AFTER

[ after the their exhibition dance, mari heads to start the set. she flicks a switch and the square lights up with colorful lights she'd placed all over, which shine nicely now that it's getting dark. mari's set is part music part light show and everything she's picked out is meant to have a good beat. if it were up to her, the set would be 100% techno, but dance party means including everyone so she plays a little of everything, really.

this hodgepodge of random music would probably be awful under any other circumstance, but mari manages to make the transitions between the songs pretty smooth, and the genre shifts don't feel abrupt or anything. she's constantly full of energy, spinning with the ease of someone who has been doing this for awhile, not the fear of someone doing this for what's ostensibly her first time. it's not all skill, it's mostly just confidence and sheer enthusiasm. and she's got both in spades.

the party goes on well into the night and she keeps playing music until the crowd looks too tired and ready to go home. she's totally wiped after, but still smiling for all she's also sweating up a storm as she oversees clean up. the square is a HUGE MESS after everything. there's streamers and confetti all over the ground and maybe that hadn't been the best idea, but.

but she's really, genuinely happy. and that'll sustain her no matter how long it takes them to clean everything up. ]

As do you, Akechi. [ take that. ] I'll concede that you have a point, but on the other hand, I feel as if you're simply pointing it out so you'll have a good excuse to stop that won't inflict any harm on your sense of manly pride.

[ :3c ]

Queen Mari, [ she'll tilt her head up a bit, hello Mari, ] what do you decree? Akechi's pride aside, he's right that summer is not the most ideal time to do this outside.
