A Dance with Dragons
Who: You!
Where: Li Yu Tiao
When: May 24th - 31st
What: The Festival of Dragons!
Status: Open!
That special time of year has arrived when the Typhoon Grips allow safe passage to the Sky Islands. Here on Li Yu Tiao, the Festival of Dragons is about to begin. During this time, the villagers celebrate the koi that pass through their island to spawn and the great dragon that guards their land with its powerful magic.
From the opening, the streets will be filled with music, dancing, and indulgence. Grab some incredible local food and sample the fine alcohol brewed on the island. The hot springs are open to adults in the evenings and offer both separate and communal baths.
From May 25th until the 27th, the Dragon's Judgement Tournament will take place. The tournament is single-elimination, in which combatants can win either by amassing points by connecting with their hits, or by submission. Only nonfatal weapons are allowed and killing is strictly forbidden. The winner of the tournament will gain the title of the "Dragon's Hand" for the next year, and will be gifted with a crimson robe and a golden dragon statue.
On the 30th, a large stage is erected in front of the Dragon Gate. At sundown, the woman decided to be the most beautiful on the island will perform a dance on the stage. She will be dressed in a robe of glittering gold and a headpiece resembling a koi's whiskers. The dance is said to entice the koi into the next stage of their lives. During the dance, a single koi will leap through the gate and be transformed into a great dragon with impressive rainbow-colored scales. It is said this dragon's magic keeps the island tethered to the Dragon Gate and is the source of its wonderful weather. As the dance completes, the dancer's dress transforms into a pair of brilliant wings, and she takes into the air to live as the dragon's bride and protector. The two will then depart together for the mountain's summit. While the dancer is almost exclusively a local villager, it is not unheard of for an outsider to be selected for the role.

Heheh good...then I'll take you away and make you all mine
no subject
Oh really? And where are you going to take me?
no subject
Antic and isolated places but couldn't think of any that weren't quite a distance away on uninhibited corners of the island. The forest was secluded, but....nah. Dirty and uncomfortable. He didn't think she'd like that. Finally he thought of something]
I'll uh...take you to my room
no subject
*Faye giggled innocently and nuzzled into his neck, resting a hand on his chest*
Oh my, and I don't even know your name...
no subject
I'll show you I can attend to all your needs...[he said that with his best approximation of a sexy smirk]
no subject
Your room...isn't far, is it?
no subject
Uh, n-no....just a bit in town.
[although part of him was again considering making a stop right here if it wasn't so dirty and potentially uncomfortable. At least the edge of the trees was visible up ahead and he knew the town was beyond a small clearing]

*Faye allowed her lips to brush against his ear before she lay her head against his shoulder. Meanwhile, the hand that was resting on his chest trailed lazily down to his stomach*
I don't think I could wait much longer...
