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

I'd like to, but if you are certain then let us move on. I see books, proper books, over this way.

Paper and journals are of great value to you and Combeferre, but I do not see my immediate need for them.

[He nods, however, when Jehan mentions the books and is glad to follow him over. Fingers brush the spines of the books as he looks to see if any catch his eye.]

Perhaps you will see a book you like. If not, there is furniture in the Earth sector and luxuries in the Fire sector.

Perhaps...

[He picks up a book to take a closer look at it before glancing over to Jehan.]

I'm certain I'll find something...

[personal profile] poeticverses 2013-07-23 04:45 am (UTC)(link)
I know you will.

[He grins]

Else I shall pick out a scarf for you.

[And it won't match]

[The unspoken implications of that earns Jehan a small look of playful fear. And a short laugh from him.]

I will take care to pick something, in that case. A scarf that I will pick, perhaps.

[He laughs]

There are some in the Earth sector, if that is what you desire.

You know that I can never turn down a new article of clothing, I think that the Earth sector should be our next stop.

Allow me to take my books to my rooms?
lecentre: (007)

[personal profile] lecentre 2013-07-23 05:03 am (UTC)(link)
Of course. Would you have me join you, or meet you there?
poeticverses: (Happy)

[personal profile] poeticverses 2013-07-23 05:04 am (UTC)(link)
Join me? It is quite a walk to the Earth sector, after all.

[personal profile] lecentre 2013-07-23 05:26 am (UTC)(link)
I'd be glad to, yes.

[He sets the book down and smiles.]
