Step right up, folks! It’s a non-terrible AU Crystallis carnival! No Calamity, no Palitutu, no dead or crystalized friends. Just some good, old-fashioned carney fun.
- 1. Food: We all know why we’re here, and it’s deep friend and on a stick. Sample the local delicacies, like kupo nut funnel cake, deep fried Touch Me-nuggets, chocobo egg custard, and Marlboro tentacles on a stick (warning: may cause Poison).
- 2. Games: They’re rigged, and the prizes are cheaply made, but it’s a point of honor. Only the best and most skilled Heroes can win the prized Fat Chocobo Plushie!
- 3. Rides: Aqures Ixen doesn’t have much by way of roller coasters, but there are chocobos with brightly dyed feathers and even a modified magitek unit for kids to ride on. Maybe some Heroes will lend their various mounts?
- 4. Contests: There will be dance-offs, bake-offs, eat-offs, craft-offs. Whatever your Hero knows how to do, do it best and you may go home with a blue ribbon!
- 5. Music and Dancing: There’s a small dance floor set up, and some locals are playing their instruments and singing. Anyone who wants to can join in to dance or play. There’s been enough drinking and merriment at the carnival so far that nobody will care if you suck or not.
- 6. Charity Events: We have to think of those poor Hypello families whose boats have been commandeered by the Heroes of Light. Help raise money to get them back on their sea-legs by volunteering at the Kissing Booth, Pie Throwing Stand, the Dunk Tank, Face Painting Stand, or other such carnival staples. Won’t you pleash helpibble the Hypellosh?
- 7. Fortune Telling: Come have your fortune told by the great yet tiny tarutaru mystic, Madame Fortururu! (Accuracy of the fortune is NOT GUARANTEED)
- 8. Tunnel of Love: Yeah, there’s not actually a stream flowing through the middle of the city…but in AU-qures Ixen, there totally is. Float along in a scuffed-up old swan boat with that special guy or gal, and think to yourself, what a wonderful world.
- 9. Other Assorted Merriment: Make up your own carnival prompt.

4. Contests (Whack-a-Mole)
[Lust pays her fee to play, and lightly grasps the padded mallet in her elegant fingertips. A couple of people have paused to watch the lovely lady who stands before the rows of staggered holes. A buzzer sounds, and the first rounded head starts to emerge.]
[WHAM.]
[Two more begin to--]
[WHAM WHAM.]
[Anoth--]
[WHAM! Almost as fast as they appear, Lust demolishes them. She doesn't deliver just dainty taps, either. There's a sort of odd intensity gleaming in her violet eyes, and she's smiling just a little too widely to be completely comfortable.]
[DIE MOLES DIE DIE DIE DIE!]
[When the buzzer sounds again, she replaces the mallet, her movements graceful, and she steps back to fold her arms below her breasts with a triumphant smirk. She may or may not have been mentally projecting Dante's face onto each of the moles, and the end result was...quite satisfying, honestly.]
