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 maywreak havoc celebrate the lifting of the rationing. Feel free to start your own thread header if you like! <3

No. I am the Archive, the carrier of a magical construct passed down maternally. As you are female, you cannot be of my lineage.
no subject
...reincarnation, maybe?
[This suggestion was a little harder for her to make. She wasn't a member of any religion that really believed in the idea.]
no subject
Highly unlikely. In five thousand years there has been no sign of reincarnation existing in my world.
[ At least not written, but she's pretty sure she would have caught wind of it somewhere if it happened. ]
No, I believe this is simply the random chance of the universe. If it is a big enough place and has existed long enough, there stands to reason that at some point, two unrelated people would look nearly identical. Highly unlikely, but so is the way that things happen sometimes.
no subject
You might be right.
I still find this incredibly strange.
no subject
These circumstances are very odd. This is the sort of thing you would find in a movie.
no subject
I haven't seen many movies.
no subject
I haven't seen any, though I know of many. There's one about long lost twins who discover their unknown relationship at a summer camp. Not that we could possibly twins.
[ Plus the rest of the movie has nothing to do with anything remotely related to their situation. ]
no subject
How did the movie end?
no subject
no subject
[If their parents were both alive.]
no subject
[ Right? Normal people with their living parents. ]
no subject
That's horrible.
no subject
Humanity functions in a wide variety of ways.
[ She knows this very well. ]
no subject
Yes. I know.
...most of them, horrible.
no subject
[ She has a little but if fondness for humanity. For 5000 years she and her ancestors have watched them grow and learn, protecting them from the unknown horrors outside of the universe. Some Archives have cursed humanity for having to carry this burden, but she has a sort of distant curiosity and warmth to them. ]
no subject
If there was, I don't remember.
And you can't trust everything you read.
no subject
As I said, the Archive is a magical construct. It is a repository of five thousand years of written information. I know and fully understand everything that has been written in the past five thousand years. I do remember.
[ Every war telegram, every diary entry wondering when their father will come home. Every love letter and kind note to the neighbor wishing them well. All of it. ]
no subject
I didn't mean you.
I meant...the things they gave us to read back home. About what life was like before the Colonies started up the whole War.
no subject
What did they say?
no subject
They said things used to be perfect. Like a Utopia. Everybody was happy, no one ever got hurt, and it was the fault of the ungrateful colonies for starting everything that's ever happened to us ever since.
I don't believe them.
no subject
I don't either. The world is never perfect, even at its best. Perhaps for some individuals it may be that way, but never the whole world.
no subject
But she might enjoy the smacking of the bitches, depending upon who's on the receiving end.]For the rich, maybe.
no subject
That would also be my guess.
[ But her arms are getting tired of holding these books and she can only talk philosophically about humanity for so long. The Archive nods at the books in her arms. ]
I should continue on with this before all the good books are taken and my arms grow tired. I will see you later.
no subject
I hope you find what you're looking for.
