Important Public Announcement

Name: un: taru
Date: March 1st
Format: Video

[When the feed connects there's a moment before anyone can be spotted. All there seems to be is the backdrop of a kitchen and a lone, wooden chair set out. Soon enough Tataru's hopping up onto the chair as if to draw even more attention to herself (and add a few feet to her, uh, short stature). Up her arms go as she waves them about, determined to be seen and heard.]

Attention, attention! After asking many people I've realized that an extremely important Eorzean holiday is unknown here! I thought that perhaps it might be celebrated since Valentione's Day was but apparently not...and I simply can't let that be!

[Is someone passionate about this? Seems that way.]

What sort of holiday could be so important? Why, it's Little Ladies' Day - a celebration of all womenfolk! A day where every lady, regardless of age, race, creed or class is treated like they're the sultana themselves!

[To put it frank, it's an All Women Are Queens day. Who wouldn't think that's a good idea?]

As someone from Ul'dah it's especially special, thanks to the tale of its founding! So, I've decided it's my duty as a Lalafellian lady from Ul'dah to bring it to all the ladies here! It's a day to dress up in your finest garments for a day out, eat tasty treats and best of all be attended to all day by a loyal seneschal.

[If you want something you've got to make it happen yourself, which seems to be the case here with Tataru. What a busybody...does she ever chill out? (The answer is no.)]

I've already been in talks with local establishments who seem willing to participate if celebrations are held later on in the upcoming weeks, but their support won't be enough. It may be a day for ladies, but without dashing men to play their part any organizing I do will be for naught.

So! [She jumps off her chair, disappearing for a moment before the feed is adjusted and she can be seen again, this time far closer.] Won't any men step up to the challenge and help this 'Little Lady' make her efforts successful? I'll be taking volunteers soon!

[And...that seems to be the end of it...only it's not.]

Oh! And if anyone else would like to lend a helping hand in general I certainly wouldn't be opposed to it! There are still a few matters I'm trying to get in order, after all. Music, sweets...there's still much to be accounted for!

[OOC: Little Ladies' Day will be celebrated on the 22nd of March, as an addition to Eostre. Details and a proper sign-up will be posted at a later date on the OOC com for those who wish to sign their characters up for a bit of silly matchmaking/shenanigans to occur.]

[It's a good thing that Leslie remembers Tataru's last video announcement, even if she hadn't replied to it, or else she would be getting a very wrong impression of Tataru's age.]

I don't know if I will be able to help with the things that you need. I don't know anything about music and I've only made sweets a couple of times with a housemate's help, and I don't have a lot of skills in general, but if there is anything you need that I would be able to do, I'd like to help. Getting to prepare for a festival is a lot of fun.

I don't know if I should. Each participant is supposed to have a seneschal, right? Who is traditionally a man? What if you can't find enough seneschals for the women who want to participate?

People here have all been so kind to me already. I shouldn't take up the space for someone else to experience it.

[If this were just voice, it might have been harder to tell by tone if she was holding herself back or if she actually meant what she said, but she replied video with video. There's reluctance written all over her face as she looks away and she squirms a little in her seat. She clearly would like to be spoiled, but doesn't think she deserves to be selfish like that.]
foundfamilies: (characters like that exist)

[Her hands are fiddling in her lap.]

If you're sure it won't be a problem...it does sound fun. But if you run out of seneschals, it'll be okay! Maybe I could even work as one if that happens, even though I'm not a boy.

[She wants to be helpful!]
foundfamilies: (for better or for worse)

All right. [She smiles a little shyly.] I can do that. ...Thank you.
