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

[Both eloquent today, aren't they? He looks over at her, frowning.]

Don't need one. You get one for yourself, though. Might be nice to have a place to write down all those thoughts in your head all the time.
refusing: (don't even)

What, instead of just saying them out loud?

[He gets a mock exasperated look, and a nudge to his side with her elbow. But she does pick out a notebook and some things to write with, and after money is handed over and she's good t go, she's dragging the Doctor off yet again.]

Anything you wanted to try and find? Figure now's the perfect time to stock up on stuff we might not be able to find later.

[He grins at her and goes back to looking while she's paying. These are all interesting, but he's never been one for stuff or clutter. It's got to have a purpose.]

Why don't you pick out something for me, then? Don't know what I might need, haven't been here long enough to. You have. You'll know.
refusing: (tease)

Know the right things for me, maybe! You're a whole other story, Doctor.

[Still, her eyes scan around the nearby booths and items up for sale. She finds a table of books, and goes over to flip through some of them. Maybe the Doctor would like some light reading material.]

A new tie, maybe?

[She reaches over to adjust his, giving it a playful little tug.]

neverginger: (with you I'm better)

[He lifts a wry brow and grabs her hand.]

Don't you even think it. I've got a long way to go before I regenerate into a bow-tie wearing madman.

[But he's mostly grinning when he says it, and he doesn't quite let her hand go, instead just twines their fingers together. What? Wouldn't want to lose her in a crowd.]

Come on, try again.
