Black Kiddilion - The Beginning of the End
Who: Okuyasu and anyone willing to sacrifice it all for those sweet deals
When: November 24th-27th
Where: Kiddilion
What: Everyone meets up outside of the city's tunnels, then attempts to partake in the sales. Things don't go well.
Warnings/Notes: This is a Mingle Log, so everyone puts up a toplevel based on the prompts.
A. The Meetup
Sunrise on the 24th. Okuyasu has an old coat he bought at a second-hand store (which he plans to replace with something that hasn't lost the stuffing or is coming loose - it's a treat for himself, especially since his new home is kinda cold) and a fabric bag stuffed with other fabric bags.
He had expected many other shoppers waiting outside for the stores to open, but not...
"How are we gonna fit all inside?"
B. The Shopping
They were not kidding about the sales. They weren't kidding about the crowds, either. No matter the store, the lines are an hour long, more for the bigger departments. Be careful that you don't step on anyone's toes and start a fight - a magic-powered fight would be terrible indoors, and that's not to say that you'd be arrested and banned from the city.
Thankfully, some merchants have set up food and drink stalls for the tired shoppers at extortionist prices. The pop-up motels are great, but who wants to sleep when they can get better places in the line?
C. Secrets
You aren't supposed to explore the city outside of the designated shopping areas. You'd get lost, they say...unless you're a Geomancer or Black Mage. Either way, you have slipped away from the crowd and found some hidden tunnels. Some of them are innocuous - hording locations for treasure and consumer products. Some of them have cloaked Black Mages attempting a dark magic ritual they read about in a popular Dark Arts Mog Blog.
Sometimes, you might run into the other Black Kiddilion. The one claiming to sell legitimate Hamster Pelts, unknown concoctions made by local Chemists, and cheap items that are totally not knock-offs. What, of course this sword is made of solid steel!

((add anything prompt you want!))

Several shoppers glare at the rude pair and hunker down on their spots. Two large potential shoppers, a Bangaa and an Elezen, step in front of Johnny.
"What's your problem, goathead?"
no subject
Johnny shoots a glance at Okuyasu before addressing the pair.
"I wanna get in and get out. And away from all this shit as soon as possible. If yer plannin' on making me stay here any longer than I need to..."
He doesn't finish that. He hopes he doesn't have to.
no subject
The Elezen crosses his arms and smirks.
Okuyasu looks at Johnny for their next move.
no subject
Then again, what authority do these two have?
Johnny doesn't make a move yet, but he doesn't back down either.
"Yeah? Tell that to literally everyone here. Who are what are you guys in charge of here, exactly?"
A rhetorical question, mostly. But as the group stands there, people have been pushing past them left and right.
no subject
"Yeah!" He approves in what can only be described in an accent reminiscent of Fantasy New Jersey. "I'm helpin' him keep you shady guys away from causin' trouble for these hard-workin' folks here!"
An older human woman clears her throat loudly. "Excuse me! Do you mind stepping out of the way?"
