Important Public Announcement

Name: un: taru
Date: March 1st

_{[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.]}

[stopfen]

Does it involve talking out of your ass, again?

[Such a skill, wow.]

[guesser]

[ he laughs— though it sounds a bit like a squawk. ]

I can control myself.

[stopfen]

[Nintendo....What the actual fuck? It's a good job this is voice and not video cause her face was just...The fuck was that?]

...Are you sure about that?

[guesser]

[ comes with being the gremlin of psittaciformes ]

About trying? Yes. Success rates, now those may vary. [ because tendou is honest. ] But it'll be your day, not mine! You can reel those rates back up in a snap.

[stopfen]

About controlling yourself...

[Nintendo please.]

[guesser]

[ —she didn't get it. ok, ok. ]

Yes.

[stopfen]

I'm not going fishing with you.... [Yep, that's how she interpreted that bit of madness. But he did seem fit enough, and he was offering... ]

What can you do exactly? [whatever, she'll just have an errand boy for the day. It's calm Tataru down. ]

[guesser]

[ literal as always . . . it's refreshing. ]

Probably anything you want me to! M' a terrific guesser, remember that? Then there's volleyball— that's a sport! Collecting cicada shells . . . Oh, and I doodle here and there, too! Actually— [ he has an idea!!! ] Give me a second!

[stopfen]

I only know what one of those things are...What can you do that's useful?

[guesser]

I’m an excellent blocker. One of the best things I do! Hold on, just one more sec—

[ ping! a sepia picture comes in! it’s— a drawing.

]

Ta-dah!

[stopfen]

[Why does it have to actually be impressive? She hates this. There's a delay.]

I said useful.

[Avoiding most of what he said. It's nice but yes, what of it?]

[guesser]

It's definitely useful for commissions. If I didn't get so tuckered out with commissions— It's you, in pirate form!

[stopfen]

I wasn't talking about money useful. I'm going to be moving around a lot and working.

What's a pirate?

[guesser]

well, now you have two extra arms. i'm an amateur athlete, i can take it!

but this is more interesting: pirates are adventurers who sail the open seas in search of treasures! and maybe sometimes steal booty.

[stopfen]

Right. I have a lot of ground that needs plowing.

I don't think I'd like being on the water so much. [There's a delay.]

What is booty? Why steal it?

[guesser]

[ if tendou were not japanese i would totally take advantage of this question ]

i think i've heard westerners rap about it but i'm pretty sure, pretty sure....... it's the ultimate treasure all pirates want. also known as ONE PIECE, capitalized.

[stopfen]

[That's a hell of a lot of things she doesn't know? Rap?]

So they look for treasure and steal it? That's it?

[guesser]

technically it's not stealing if they find it buried, right?

[stopfen]

You said stealing earlier.

[guesser]

if they're stealing other pirate's booty, then yes

[stopfen]

Right. So you think I look like a thief. Good to know.

[It's snark, she wasn't offended, but text...]

[guesser]

naw, "thieves" are real low-lives, you know? they don't have principles. pirates, on the other hand, are fancy adventurers that take what's theirs by right! don't tell me you've never stolen something from someone anyway. points? food? happiness? victory?

[ pause ]

bling?

[stopfen]

[Delayed response. But she just might have stolen some things, the occasional scrap of bread before they joined the military...But anywayyyy, not telling him that.]

What? Why do you have so many strange words?

[guesser]

i’m from the year 2015.
