BdrLineAzn:
At the start of the day, both Liu and BdrLine were already up and ready for the Festival. BdrLine would be spending his time with his group going around fixing anything mechanical related, while his mother would be at the Festival enjoying herself.

"Azn, I'll be going to the Center to see the festivities"

"Alright mother, if i have time, i be there as well"

"Just be careful with yourself"

"I know"

With that, Liu heads towards the center of the city where many stalls and vendors littered the streets, as well as many different performances and activity booths. Around her, many different goods from across the land can be seen in the different stalls. She goes up to one stall where the vendor was selling Chaladonian silk cloth.

"You there, miss. You look like one who knows fashion. If you look here, i have some of the finest silk that Chaladon can offer. Nice yes."

He hands her a piece of cloth for her to fell

"Oh yes this does feels nice, do you have more in different colors?"

"Yes, yes. we have much more. You interested in buying some cloth?"

"I had an idea of some clothing that I wanted to make, but i didn't know which materials to use. I think this may be the one."

With that, Liu pays for some fabric in which the vendor places in a bag. After the exchange, Liu moves on to see more of the Festival.

Before heading out for lunch, Ny-Lee notices that the amount of people increased.

"Is it always this crowded during this day?"

"Its the one of the few times where we let in people, but i think today's i feel there is much more then usual."

"There a way for us to find a more open area."

"Hmm. I don't think so, everything is pretty crowded."

While the two keeps looking around for an open restaurant to eat, Ny-Lee spots a game booth and eyes one of the prizes hanging.

"Roland, Roland, look. Come on you think you can win this for me?"

Ny-Lee tugs on Roland to the general direction where she was looking at. Roland turns to see, not before Ny-Lee drags him to the booth and where he is now staring at a giant teddy bear. He looks at the game inside the booth where there are three bottles sorted in a pyramid in which you have to throw a ball to knock it down."

"I think so"

He goes up to the man who is running it.

'"How much is one game?"

"Two silver's for three throws."

"Thats not so bad. Here I'll play one."

He hands the man two silver coins where he receives three balls to throw. Roland takes one and throw his first one, missing it to the right.

"That"s one."

Shrugging off his first throw, Roland picks up the second one and throws it where it hits the top bottle off.

"There's two, last throw to knock all three"

Ny-Lee looks on to Roland with puppy dog eyes eager for him to win. Even more determined to get it, he picks up the last ball and throws it hitting the two bottom bottles in the middle knocking one down. The second tilts and spins around leaning back and forth of beeing knocked over to standing back up again. Roland feels the anxiety as he watches the last bottle move, until it finally falls over.

"YES"

"Looks like we have a winner. What prize do you want?"

Ny-Lee cheers gleefully as Roland points to the giant bear. The man brings it down and hands it to Ny-Lee which she hugs it in a tight grip.

"Thank you, thank you, thank you."

"Anything for my lady"

Ny-Lee blushes as the two continue on.

Back at the docks, its a whole different matter for BdrLine and his crew. Instead of fun and play, all four are going around taking jobs to fix any vessels in dock. Right now, he and Tommy are on a visiting ship where it has problems in the steering.

BdLine is in the lower deck checking on the hydraulic system. He calls up to Tommy who is on topside checking for any slight changes.

"How did this guy even made it to port? I mean look at this, he could have been flying backwards with this."

"It could happen, I mean look at the things you do" *Laughs*

BdrLine rolls his eyes as he takes his tools and goes around to fixing.

*clank*  *whack* *screech* *squish*

"... Any changes?"

"Hold on..."

Tommy goes to the helm and turns the wheel to port, he looks back and sees the appropriated corresponding movement taking place. He goes back and calls to BdrLine.

"We are good, you can come back up now"

"Finally" BdrLine climbs out. "How yo think Allen and John doing?"

"Well, we haven't received any complaints. I think they are doing fine."

"Ok, Lets find this guy and receive our pay"

They two then goes out to find the airship owner. Once found, BdrLine explains that he fixed the problem to him. Sastified, the man gives both a sack of coins as payment.

Smiling, BdrLine look to Tommy.

"Sometimes I love working on this day."

"With all the money we are getting, I agree"

The two then set off to look for more repair jobs.

Yiski:
--Saloon--

Despite being slammed, Lauren started to think about her now-suddenly-revived relationship with Yiski. Even though she teased him the other night, she wondered.

"What is it I want? Do I still love Yiski? Well..."

She takes a glance over at Yiski who was breaking up an argument between patrons. It would have gotten out of hand had Yiski not threatened to shoot the two of them. Lauren chuckles. Even though she hasn't seen Yiski fight in eight years, she still recognizes his adamant nature.

Yiski then notices Lauren standing around and yells at her.

"Come on. Don't tell me the Blitz is gettin' slow?"

Lauren sticks her tongue at Yiski causing Yiski to roll his eyes. In a mere instant, Lauren manages to serve drinks and make her way back to the saloon.

"Quick enough?"

"Just enough."

Lauren stocks up on another round of drinks and chuckles again.

"I guess that's a yes."

Shinkurex:
"GET YOUR FILTHY HANDS OFF OF ME"

*Shink struggles to get out of bed, while the medics try to subdue him*

"Sir you collapsed outside the Burning Skies Saloon. You are not fit to walk around"

*Shink glares at the medic imagining snapping the boy in two*

"Son... I'll tell you whether or not I can walk around. There's a reason why I went to the saloon, instead of showing up on your doorstep"

*Shink forces his way out of bed. leaving a trail of medics in his wake. He was just about to make it out the door, when a nurse injects him. Instant blackout*

RearAdmiralZill:
-Saloon-

Jun'ko is playing the piano for the rowdy patrons who think they own the place. A glass breaks every few minutes and some get too close for comfort, but she shrugs them away with the music. She tries a few up-beat tunes and the patrons seem to get in tune with it. Satisfied after her last tune, she goes behind the bar and grabs a Frostfire ale.
"Vultures out there Yiski. I hope they tip better than they smell."

She goes toward the piano but a tourist stops her, sneering.
"Why don't you come over here little piano girl."

He instantly finds a knife tapping his inner thigh, as Jun'ko gives a sly grin.
"Why don't you let me continue playing while you continue being a man."

His buddies laugh as he lets go and lets her sit back down. She starts playing again and another person starts to touch her. She sighs and whips around, a knife pressed on the man's neck. This time though, he was also masked.
"Good to see I don't have to guard you all the time."

Zill smirked and went over to the bar. Jun was flushed with embarrassment, but started a new tune.

Honeybadger:
-- Dylans Airship, Nearby Anvala --

Honeybadger: "Alright, so this is supposed to do what you say it does right?"

Dylan: "We Lugged it on the ship and moonshined our way to Anvala in time for the night festival so it better work."

Honeybagder: From what I heard, this machine could mean big things.

*Dylan sets up a machine with several buttons while Honeybadger set up the speakers on the sides of the ship connected to the machine. The machine has many knobs switches and buttons on it*

Honeybadger: "We're almost at Anvala, get ready to hit it."

Dylan: "So what are we going to call this type of music."

Honeybadger: "How about... Wave?"
