jigokuooc | April Event Plotting

We realize we're doing this sort of backwards, but after some discussion and requests from players, we figure it's better late than never for a centralized plotting post for the event! Again, apologies for our growing pains, but we hope y'all are understanding.

Here's a breakdown summary of every prompt on the event;
Hanami The Sutoku Alliance has arranged for spectral cherry blossom trees for flower viewing, offering all kinds of food and drink to enjoy. The foods tend to be "enhanced" with peace/love inducing feelings, but they don't have to be. The spectral trees are a little creepy, if examined too closely.
Kanamura The Tamamo's foods from the mini-event are back, and are taking all kinds of cheeky forms. Sexy foods, but do not strictly need to lead to sexy times.
Hadaka - The Department of the Enma is allowing a naked endurance race, folks packed together in basically nothing, chasing after a mobile shrine and trying to grab luck sticks. Ostensibly it's for blowing off steam. May actually generate steam.
Sumo - The Shuten Clan is hosting sumo fights, and rules are expected to be followed. Shuten representatives are also expected to win any match they participate in, less they lose some pay. The prizes for winning are special sake gourds that enhance the flaovor of any drink contained within.
Food Runners - Need extra cash? Do some food running, with some extremely difficult to manage delivery gear. But the pay's good!
Bathhouse Orgy - As promised, the Tamamo have opened up their bathhouses on the route up for free-for-all fuckin'. All manner of kinks will be provided for, and some of the bathhouses will have transparency glamours cast on them to allow shows to be put on. This is the horniest prompt, by far.
Floats - Help carry elaborate lantern floats depicting huge dioramas of famous mythological events throughout Japan's history, though the depicted heroes and villains seem to be reversed...
Fireworks - Explains itself, but the fireworks are especially fantastic since they're largely created by magic, rather than simply pyrotechnics.
The assassination - The Daitengu will be assassinated in the outcome of the underground machine causing a massive cloud of steam to flood the entire parade route. Panic will ensure, and black-suited youkai will clash with the White Wolf Guard, eventually succeeding in killing the Daitengu

No problem!! I'm fine with continuing to tag stuff while doing the event (might be a bit slower lmfao but I don't mind!)

I think in the aftermath parts of the event would probably be the best place for them to get into the dirty details of business- since Rider/Sakamoto is holding a meeting for all Sutokus to sit and hash out thoughts on what went down, he'll be much more in the condition to talk about specific aspects of their situation and how it related to exorcism and the exorcist communities there!

If Lan Wangji doesn't plan to be active there (or even if he does) Matoba may very well hit him up at the Hanami area beforehand, since that seems like a good time to bother this guy that he very definitely was antagonizing a few weeks ago. He seems like a very useful guy to antagonize. Don't question Matoba's taste.

No, he's right. Antagonizing Lan Wangji is definitely what he should do. This sounds great!

ETA: Aaand here you go for my toplevel if you want! He's around in the meeting too.

Whoop! I'll hit up the TL first and I think I'm going to hold off on tagging the meeting much further until my actual festival threads get a little further along, so I can keep everything straight 👌

ACTUALLY editing to ask, what's up with his hands at the hanami that Matoba would be able to sense?

YOU ARE WISE. I still need to do another round of pre-festival tags myself. Take your time!

AND OH I REPLIED TOO SOON. I'm not sure of the range of Matoba's senses (I can never decide at first how much I think LWJ should be able to sense when he's depowered lol) so I'll just tell you what happened and you decide: he gave the ghosts a little bit of blood when they asked! They're VERY interested and basically took everything that would bleed from the cuts that he made, but after he realized they weren't going to do anything useful with it and were just being whiny for more he cut them off. That's the reason why they're clustered so thickly and spookily around him, because they're going "BUT MOOOOOOOM?!" about it basically.
