AYTO | Happily Ever After
You are cordially invited to
HAPPILY EVER AFTER
for an interdimensional reunion.
HAPPILY EVER AFTER
for an interdimensional reunion.
The scene is a sprawling garden in an undisclosed dimension. Peach- and white-colored decorations dot the grounds from the outdoor furnishing to decorative balloons that highlight the block letters spelling out HAPPILY EVER AFTER in the center. Music plays in the background, gently in volume so as not to disrupt socialization, while strings of light hang from the arbors, trees, and tents that glow warmly once the sun dips into evening. Surely you'll be wanting to meet all the former contestants present, whether they came alone or as half (or third) of a pair. Low tables with heart-shaped cushions have been arranged at the heart of the garden for socializing with a small twist: seats have been assigned via name cards, and each table houses at least one former contestant from each round to encourage mingling between seasons. Once you settle down, you'll notice another card on the center of the table that reads: INTRODUCE YOUR CASTMATE (OR YOURSELF IN THE ABSENCE OF ONE). How's that for an icebreaker? Overseers, in their infinite power, have the privilege of sitting anywhere. Make friends and merry as you partake of the catered food and drinks, of which alcoholic beverages will be served only to those of age.
Once the introductory meal has concluded, former contestants are herded over to tents with cozy furnishing in which to lay and spend time with loved ones and old friends. That's right—the tents are designated by seasons for some catching up between castmates. There's another card here that encourages everyone to SHARE ONE THING THAT'S CHANGED SINCE YOUR APPEARANCE ON THE SHOW. After this, you're free to visit other tents and mingle to your heart's content.A stack of cards atop a garden stool on a modest stage contains the names of every perfect match to date. For what? Why, to play charades! You must play out the perfect match listed on the card you draw with your match while the rest of the former contestants take a guess. If half of a match declines to participate or isn't in attendance, another former contestant or an Overseer is welcome to fill in. What if you didn't watch the other rounds? Well, then it's time to make educated guesses, isn't it? (Cards are drawn at random in character, but can be decided between players or via wheel).
Dinner ushers in an evening of romance. Bistro lights illuminate the garden, and the stage is cleared for dancing the night away. Of course, you're free to do whatsoever your heart desires if you've something else in mind. This particular corner of the world is, at least for today, your very own oyster.
( ooc: This is a reunion log for all game rounds of AYTO to date. All characters, including Overseers, are welcome to participate. As the passage of time can vary between dimensions, the answer to the question of "how long after X round is this reunion?" also depends on the characters. I'm watching you, Minato and Kotone. Feel free to handwave seating assignments and add in whatever you fancy to the setting, and do check back periodically as there is no all-inclusive channel to post new top-levels. Last but not least, have fun! )

[It's a pretty soft smile that he gives in response to Kizuna's enthusiasm over philanthropy. Despite everything that's happened, charity is still something very meaningful to him, especially since their coordinator is making every effort to raise morale and keep the association active. A good thing because dear god let her learn feminism. He's still a little surprised she's asking him about that, though.]
Oh...! Like about the actual movement? Well, we've always fundraised for the Korean Foundation for Women, but it might be difficult for you to follow them where you're going back...
[Yoosung considers for a moment, then realizes they are not on the actual show anymore so he should still have wifi. He holds up his phone, excited by the idea!]
What if we look for a good book together? [he is googling in Korean so he will eventually come back with Flowers of Fire by Hawon Jung]

[She nods warmly, deciding to be comfortable looking at his phone close together. It's nice that Yoosung is gentle and that Kizuna has been able to temper her skittishness.]
Yes, I am sure this is of great value. Hm. It seems that many different women have been given the strength to share their emotions here. [She takes out her own phone to carefully transcribe the letters of the (possibly common) title and author before putting it away again.] Thank you very much. I hope that to help me is not dwelling too much on hardships.
