Operation Reignition

Who: Anyone who wants to participate in the event!
Where: Assorted places in and around District 3!
When: Sunday afternoon (the 30th)
Summary: POWER IT UP AND GO SHOPPING.
Warnings: None.

By late morning, it's obvious that there's something going on down by the bridges to District 3. Even if you missed the announcement on the network, it's pretty obvious that something is going to happen; townspeople mill about with interest as people set up tables. Irene and Mai are roaming the area, Mai mostly sticking to the medical teams standing by while Irene organizes the rest of the group. Keener eyes might spy one of the brothers responsible for the network, slipping off into the Third District through gates that stand open, but still guarded against any visitors who might attempt to approach before things are ready to go.

Off to one side, there's a shaded area, tents and a few chairs where visitors can wait to be allowed entry. There's a table full of water bottles and light snacks tucked up against the wall, to fortify you against the heat of the afternoon - and it is warm, and only going to get warmer. The natives seem to have accepted the baking sun as the normal way of things, but be careful that you don't get heatstroke.

At about half an hour past noon, someone brings out a little podium and sets it in front of the gate. Irene climbs up on it, holding a microphone in front of her mouth - her voice echoes from a number of speakers set up through the area.

"Alright, could I have my first group of volunteers over here, please? We've got your instructions ready for you to enter the district."

Looks like it's showtime. Are you ready?

((ooh; Event start! OOC information can be found here and here.))

No, no! It's okay!

[The boy laughs and grabs for his friend's hand.]

They are busy trying to help others. I will be okay on my own! I'm going to be a knight when I grow up and knights face challenges all the time. I will find a way to see things all by myself. It will be like a test!

[He nods.]

Then I won't need to go with any adults either. I'll do everything by myself and then come back and find you. So we can be knights together.

[Diarmuid shakes a finger at the other boy, as stern an expression as he can manage on his face.]

Now you promised you would help that group! Knights don't break promises. You have to go with them, but we can explore more when you get back. I will go to a different area than you and we both will have lots to tell each other. What did my father call it... Scouting! We both are going on scouting missions! That way we can plan for when we go back!

[He nods eagerly.]

I didn't know scouting missions went like this before!

I don't think this is exactly how they go, but if we are going to learn about the area, why not make it a scouting mission?

[Diarmuid seems to fall into thought for a moment and then his expression brightens.]

Lets make it a competition! Whoever comes back with the best story about the area they explore wins!

Alright! I bet I'll win because I'm gonna see a generator!

[Diarmuid pouts for a moment because he wants to see a generator too. He's not going to let his friend win that easily, though.]

I will just have to find something cooler than a generator! Maybe I will find a mystery generator that everyone forgot about. And I will fix it all by myself!

[He claps Diarmuid on the shoulder.]

If you can, then I'll find you a hero's portion next time we have dinner.

Okay! And if you win, I will find one for you! It is only fair!

[Diarmuid claps his hands excitedly, happy that they seem to have decided on a good 'reward' for their feats. Honestly, even if he doesn't win, he will win in a way because he will have gotten to hear a new wonderful story that he will be able to tell his father when he goes back home.]

It's a deal!

[He puts his arms around his friend in a hug.]

I'm gonna go now.

[Diarmuid gives him a big hug back and then steps away and waves at him.]

Good luck! Bring me back a good story!
