Event | Yard Sale!

Characters: Come one, come all!
Date: July 21st - July 27th
Location: The City of Keeliai
Situation: The rationing is officially lifted and the kedan are celebrating by conducting one citywide yard sale! Think big! Think small! Think tribbles! Think all!
Warnings/Rating: Tribbles. Lots of tribbles. Please indicate content warnings in subject headers as applicable.

The morning of the 21st kicks off with heralds roving about the city of Keeliai to declare that the rationing edict has been lifted and that citizens no longer have to contribute one-fifth of their productions (juulan or physical goods) to the communal stores maintained by the police force. These announcements trigger a state of celebration across the city as kedan drag months worth of hoarded items to the street to sell, steal, or trade in a wave of mercantile goodness that stretches for nearly a week. Not even the rising tide of tribbles seems to dampen their spirit, with kedan citywide finding new and inventive uses for the fuzzy paperweights.

Characters are free to do as they will during this event, with police oversight relaxed in the aftermath of the long rationing and strained relations. Impromptu sales out of suites will rarely be inspected and purchase made elsewhere are no longer monitored. Everyone is taking a breath of fresh air, so to speak, and most do not want their first fun in months to be ruined.

OOC: See the OOC announcement for details and this post for subheaders in which you may wreak havoc celebrate the lifting of the rationing. Feel free to start your own thread header if you like! <3

Toph | Open tribble post!

[Best not to poop in one's own sandbox. Instead of the Earth Sector, Toph has made her way to the Water Sector to further her tribble shenanigans and is launching them into the crowd at random targets's heads. It's hard to say what draws her to anyone . . . it might truly be random. One favorite target, though, seems to be the parading kedan advocating for tribble rights.]

[Get hit with a tribble and catch her if you can.]

[Bean is minding his own business when something small and furry lands on his head. Now, this is the second time he's been hit on the head with some foreign object, and while a tribble is better than a can of carrots, he still doesn't appreciate it.]

Hey! Who--?

[Laughter floats on the breeze from probably not that far away. Bean may catch a quick glimpse of its owner -- a small, dark-haired girl grinning in his direction -- before she takes off, weaving through the crowd.]

[He can attempt pursuit if he chooses.]
justlittle: (ES63 run)

[Bean recognizes the blind girl from the Network, and he does in fact choose to run after her, tribble in hand. She's fast, but so is he, and he catches up to her soon enough, grabbing her with his free hand.]

You don't just go throwing animals at people.
dustonmyfeet: (get in line)

[The kid was fast, because from what Toph can tell, he's not that tall, either. She twists back towards him at the hand, pulling to a halt.]

I didn't throw anything at anyone.

[Well. Not technically.]
justlittle: (ES65)

[When you're as small as he is, you learn to compensate.]

Regardless. [He deposits the tribble in her hand.] Here's your tribble back.
