[WISH FESTIVAL WONDERINGS: DAY DAY 195]

[spellbindmods]

[ Even though the coven members aren't held in the highest regard right now, it doesn't mean they're neglected when it comes to the wish festival. As a last hurrah for the festival, a large metal tree has been placed in the middle of the first floor of the apartment complex. Next to it is a box of small talismans, complete with a few complimentary pens -- though the 'complementary' part means that they usually end up missing, so hopefully you've got a writing utensil of your own.

The idea of the tree, which families in Shehui have their own miniature version in their homes, is to post up your sometimes-anonymous wish and to see if it can and will be granted. Sometimes these wishes are more metaphysical or spiritual; wishes for better health or a clearer mind. Sometimes they're material; "I want a new car," "I wish I had a few more credits."

Wishers are also encouraged to grant what wishes they can. Again, some aren't so easy -- but it's worth a shot, right? What's the worst that could happen?

OOC: Leave wishes that your character would request ICly. These can either be anonymous or signed! They can leave as many wishes as they want, just put them all in the same comment with an indication as to whether they're anonymous or signed. They don't even have to make sense -- the mod account will go around and fulfil some wishes as if they were from other Shehui residents, who may not have the best grasp or capability of understanding your wish. It's all in good fun! Alternatively, you can also leave comments with what your character would ICly do in order to fulfil that wish. Any gifts given anonymously (or asked for) can be left on the tree itself, next to the wish in question.

Also, for the detail-oriented, these wish papers are also technologically advanced -- not your typical paper! They translate the words written down on them, unlike other handwritten material in Shehui. This may be useful for something else on the horizon... ]

Comments

OOPS I THOUGHT THIS WAS AN ACTUAL POST BECAUSE I DON'T PAY ATTENTION this does look like fun tho

[lalliho]

(In the jankiest handwriting, but without any names attached...)

1. LET HIM STAY SAFE

2. LET THEM STAY SAFE

3. LET HER FIND HER WAY

4. I WANT TO DO BETTER

[zinit]

[In a neat, careful cursive, as though he's putting the very feeling of the wish into the words:] I want to see my sister again.

[justiceobjects]

1. I want to find my badge!
[This one's signed, and has a simple drawing of his attorney's badge included. It looks like a flower with a set of scales in the middle. Good luck finding it though - that was taken away as the price for his magic.]

2. I hope he knows that I forgive him.
[This one's unsigned.]

[potentite]

[Of course, someone found a green pen to use, because that was deeply important to him, even though the wishes themselves are anonymous? Weirdo. The handwriting frankly looks much better than what you'd expect of a kid who did 90% of his life just texting.

There are individual wishes that simply say, "Please do something kind for ____" with the names filled in as Jade, Dirk, Karkat, Terezi, Dave, Madoka, 2B, Geir and Jumin.

And then there's a simple one that says, "I want to be good with people."]

[armigers]

[ Signed anonymously and in purposely awful script. ]

1. Please let them be okay.

2. I want to go back.

[allbroea]

[ anonymously, in impeccable cursive: ]

May all of them walk in the light of the Goddess.

[gimmecandy]

-These aren't signed, but it's probably unsurprising who wrote them. At least the first one.-

1. I WOULD LOVE MORE CANDY PLEASE AND THANK YOU

2. I have nothing. Nothing I would be sad to lose, nothing to worry about. Nothing I want. Nothing is all I have. Can you help me find something, instead?

[idolpedia]

-Let them win the Love Live!
-Let my sister find her strength after I graduate.
-I want them to know that we're all okay.

[Dia does not sign hers, but, anyone who knows her will know that it is her.]

[bulletbiter]

[ A sharp, firm handwriting: ]

Let them go home.

[secondadvent]

I want my father to suffer for the rest of his life.

[ It's unsigned, and written with his non-dominant hand to disguise his handwriting. ]

[sluggard]

1. I want a week off from work and unlimited booze.
[That one's signed.]

2. Don't let them get themselves killed.
[That one's unsigned, though he's made no effort to hide his handwriting.]

[toblueskies]

I wish that others would make their wishes with the greatest care.

[ the first note is signed, because if a mage knows anything it's that one must be careful of what they desire, and what price is paid (willingly or otherwise.)

the second note is anonymous but the handwriting is identical. ]

I wish to restore the future of humanity.

[soulcomet]

[two unsigned wishes, simple enough:]

1. Please let everyone find the happiness they're looking for.

2. I would like to know the truth.

[drizzle]

[Nike and Airis will present their gifts to the tree, one of them was a rain doll and a bouquet filled with flowers they had bought with their credits for the occasion. Both girls will offer their wishes with Airis's asking for happiness and for everyone in the coven to be able to become friends with those in the city.

Nike on the other hand will begin to ask for the following:]

I wish for Airis to grow up well. But not too much! She's been doing a lot of that, so can you help her have a longer life than normal? I don't want to see her age and die.....

I wish for everyone back in Aimintas to be safe and working hard on making their world a better place than we previously left it as. May they all find peace within each other and the other left over species. Oh, and to continue living in harmony with their planet.

I wish for everyone in the coven's wish to be granted!

I wish for everyone's health and happiness. Including those in this very world. Please protect them and guide them. They need your guidance, even if they cannot hear your voice.

I wish to be able to unlock my telepathy with this world and the one back at the island. My channels are open, so you'll be able to see my meaning. I'd like to learn to better communicate with as many worlds as I can. Including getting the chance to understand and connect with those living in them too.

Please spread your own blessing to my own world as well. May Livi be okay along with Neil and Bardwin and everyone back at the Sun Kingdom. Make sure they never find their way here. I don't want Qri to bring any of them. Not even my own family! May they be safe too! I hope my absence hasn't caused any unnecessary wars.
