Spring Shopping || Open
Winter seemed to be gone, finally, so now it was time to do some Spring Cleaning and also Spring Shopping~! This woman had a mighty need to purchase some pens of different colors and sizes, maybe even some pretty notepads... But she couldn't just buy these things from the local shop in town, she wanted to travel elsewhere to do a little bit of a sight-seeing and breathing in the sweet springtime air.
Iris decided to hop in the first boat leading to who-knows-where. Adventurous, sure. Smart, probably not. It was going to be a short trip either way, so it's not like she'll be too far from Mistel for too long.
Some time had passed by, but she fell asleep on the journey, so she ended up waking up to the afternoon skies. The crew ushered her off the boat so they could start packing in new travelers, and she hurried along to the town's shopping area. Or at least, she thought she was heading in the right direction...
"Excuse me, can you point me in the direction of the shops around here? I'm a tourist-- I'm not even sure what this place is called..." she spoke softly at first, then crossed her arms and glanced around at the crossroads.
"This is to show my gratitude for always being by my side. So thank you, and happy Harmony Day, my beloved sister."
"These are absolutely divine, my dearest brother! I'm so thankful to have you at my side-- Here, here... I have something for you in return!"
"I couldn't help but think of you when I first laid eyes on this gorgeous bouquet... Just like these flowers, you brighten up a room with your mere presence and bring joy to my heart. Happy Harmony Day, Mistel!"
"This is to show my gratitude for always being by my side. So thank you, and happy Harmony Day, my beloved sister."
[ Spring Fair - Delivery ]
Congratulations! You’ve won a mystery egg from surviving the Wild Wild West Water Gun Battle! Come back to us in three weeks to see what will hatch~! And yes, that’s a real egg! It’s a complete mystery about what’s inside, though… Take good care of it.
"A real egg, hmm?" It was much too big to be a bird's egg, but it was also colored differently so perhaps it wasn't from around here... Certainly strange indeed. "I wonder if Mistel would approve of me having a child... Hehe, the look on his face will be priceless."

Claire was a little late to the party, but that didn't mean that she couldn't have a bit of fun. Taking aim, she came up from behind and shot water at the next person she could find-- "Sorry about that! But I'm in it to win!"
It was nice to meet a fellow pretty blonde-- But not when it came down to these circumstances...
Ferris Wheel Ride | Iris and Kathy
Kathy was filing into the rapidly-filling line for the Ferris Wheel when she bumped into someone. She turned around to apologize and… Wow… She’s gorgeous. I hope I can look that good in a few years. "Sorry!" Before she could really say more, she was ushered forward by an attendant who was yelling.
"Two people per cabin, people! No more, no less!"
Just as quickly, Kathy was shoved into a cabin with the older woman. “Jeez, it’s like they’re trying to make this as unpleasant as possible…” She sighed as she looked out the window. “The view’s nice, though.”
Iris nerely fell over into a flower pot from being bumped into, but she quickly regained her composure and merely patted the dust off her hips. There wasn't much concern for what the attendant was shouting, since she was busy cleaning herself off and trying to keep an eye on her dress since she's been stepped on once or twice in this line of horrible youngsters. The next thing she knew, she was basically shoveled into a cabin and had no choice in the matter since the door promptly locked behind her. Might as well take a seat and get to know her new acquaintance that was now sitting across from her. "I suppose they've had a hard time trying to get people to listen to them and probably lost sight of their patience." she replied with a motherly tone of voice. "Yes, the view is simply astonishing." After agreeing with the pretty young lady before her, she decided to take her seat finally and pressed her knees together tightly before resting her hands upon her lap. Time for some small talk otherwise this may be a very awkward ride in the end... "Well, I would love to start introductions if you don't mind-- My name is Iris. How about yours?"

Spring Fair- Kissing Booth | Iris and Vaughn
There was some time to spare since her brother seemed to disappear off the face of the planet in a great amount of hurry, so she decided to stroll past the booths until something would catch her attention. Big bright pink letters and red hearts did the trick— Kissing Booth? And a guy in a cowboy costume? The blonde tilted her head slightly at the sight before her and wondered about whether or not this was a costume to win young girls over. Oh well, might as well see what he’s like.
Iris took a few steps closer until she could reach out and tap the man on his shoulder, then she gave him a quick wave with a bright smile. “My, my… Are you working for this booth?”
This was good, no one approached him yet. Vaughn was just about to doze off before he felt a small tap on his shoulder. He looked up to see who it was. A woman stood before him asking if he ran the booth. He had to think for a moment. He took a deep breath before answering her. “Not really. Someone signed me up for it.” he spoke in a firm voice. “Unfortunately..” he muttered loud enough for her to hear him.
Normally he wouldn’t be the one to really talk to a stranger, but he was getting bored anyways. It’s not like he’s going to warm up to someone though. He rolled up his sleeves. It was starting to get hot. Let’s get this over with. It’s not like I’m doing this for my entertainment. “What are you here for anyways?” he asked.
For a few seconds, Iris actually thought the cowboy looked cute before she woke him up and then she changed her mind after he reacted the way he did. So much for having fun. This buckaroo seemed to be more irritated than anything. Why was he working this booth then? Her face fell once hearing him answer her question out loud, which made her feel a tad guilty for silently judging his life choices. Someone signed him up for this against his will. Poor thing. "Sorry to hear about that, heh..." she spoke quietly up until she let out an awkward kind of laugh.
Boy was he utterly apathetic towards his little side-job.
Iris tried her best to shake off the dull aura that was slowly eating away at her mood by offering the stranger a genuine smile. "I was merely interested in this handsome guy, you see, and well... This is a kissing booth, after all." Hopefully her reason for standing here was obvious enough after that hint. "But-- I really don't want to bother you since you're not here on your own terms." Did she really want a kiss? Who knows~ One thing was certain though... She wanted to cheer up the grumpy cowboy.
A Mystery Match | Iris and Sanjay
The spring fair had already started to an odd start for the calm butler. A mysterious woman had handed him a strange piece of paper and told him it was for a match making thing organized for the fair. Sanjay sighed as his violet eyes scanned the name on the paper: ‘Iris’. He did not know of a person named Iris, and he did not want to be in this situation to begin with. It was not in his place to care for someone, as he could not properly give a woman the time and care that she would deserve.
The butler sighed as he pocketed the paper in his robes. He walked over to a bench and sat down, taking in the happy atmosphere of the entire fair. Festivals such as this always were nice. It was always nice to simply people watch and absorb the atmosphere around him. It had been quite some time since he had seen a festival of this size. The last large festival he had seen was watched outside a window of the castle during his butler training.
A piece of paper was also brought to the novelist's attention, stating simply that she would venture about the Spring Fair with a man on her arm, and that man's name was Sanjay. Sounded foreign to her, so she assumed that she would meet up with an interesting character. It was a pleasant idea at the very least, perhaps she'll learn a thing or two along the way. This was meant to be fun, after all, and she wasn't about to get hopes up over a male suitor. No pressure.
Not too far off into the distance, she caught sight of a person resting on a bench and she had a feeling that it was fate that brought them together. For what purpose? Who knows. Woman's intuition didn't exactly lay out all the details for her. Then again, she was merely making guesses considering the robes that this stranger was wearing. Time to see if it's really him... So with that, Iris picked up her dress just enough to keep it from dragging along the cold hard ground and walked along the path in front of her with a bright smile on her face.
Soon enough she found herself standing off to the side of the bench, since she didn't want to get into the man's personal space, and merely offered a casual wave to gain his attention. "My, my... Are you Sanjay by any chance?" There was no beating around the bush for her, the direct approach was the best approach and she had no reason to be afraid of asking questions. Even if there was a big chance of her being wrong.
The blonde waited for confirmation before piping up once more, "It's a pleasure to meet you~ My name is Iris."

Pies and Pajamas || Closed
Iris didn't have much of an aim, apparently, because she managed to hit a poor civilian passing by the scene of the crime just as well as missing twice in a row all together. Finally-- Her last pie led her to winning two prizes of her choice at the very bottom tier of prizes...
"I'll take the rabbit plushie and the rabbit pajamas, thank you very much kind sir!"
The blonde was pretty close to her thirties in age, but that didn't mean she enjoyed cute things any less. Maybe she could convince Mistel to wear pajamas too, if he wins something.
Not this round! *bang bang!*
"Goodness gracious-- Looks like I've been shot again!"
"Bang bang, as it were, dear sister!" he called before spraying Iris with an over-sized water gun and promptly fleeing the scene
"...My dearest brother betrayed me. Color me disappointed."
You have a choice between choosing a RED FLAG or a BLUE FLAG. Choose one, publish this post to the dash, and keep an eye out for the next person who chooses the same flag color as you did. No cheating! You must choose a color before you post! Once you've found that person, go up to them and offer them a gift of some sort based on their appearance. That's right, you'll have to take them shopping! They will also have to get a gift for you too. What do you think matches your appearance?
"…Strange request, but I suppose red will have to do?"
[ Spring Fair- Kissing Booth! ]
…Huh? Who had signed him up for this gig anyway? Ah well, all he needed to do was keep on a pretty smile and grace his lips on some lucky volunteers hmm?
"Come one, come all, mes amis!”
Another Kissing Booth? Boy, oh boy, this fair sure seemed to be all about exploiting young men. This time was different though. No costume to pull in the girls? Maybe there was something more to him...
"Hello, hello~", she spoke up with a quizzical expression, "Are you going to dress up too?" There was still some distance between her body and the booth, but she was inching a little closer as time went on.
