let's go to the carnival!

the carnival meme

WHAT TO DO:
1. Post with your character!
2. Pick a scenario and reply to people!
3. Have fun and try not to get sick on the roller coaster!

OPTIONS:
1. Games: From classic ring toss to the shooting gallery, here's your chance to win a prize for yourself or for that special someone. Some say the games at a carnival are rigged, but maybe, just maybe, you'll get lucky!

2. Food and Drink: The sweet smell of funnel cake and the familiar briny aroma of popcorn draw you over to the food and drink tent. There's cotton candy, candied nuts, and cheep booze, all here for your enjoyment.

3. Classic Rides: The carousel, the ferris wheel. All carnivals need these classic rides for kids and adults who aren't looking for the excitement of the faster-paced rides. Snuggle close to your partner and see if you can see your house from the top of the wheel.

4. Something More Exciting: This is for thrill-seekers. Here you'll find the Tilt-a-Whirl, the Gravitron, the Screamin' Swing--all the rides designed to make you lose your lunch. Hope you didn't have too much cotton candy!

5. Freakshow: Do they really have a bearded lady in that tent? It's time to find out. Buy a ticket and see the greatest oddities the world has to offer.

6. Tunnel of Love: Or perhaps tunnel of mild boredom. The red-tinted lights and quasi-romantic music are meant to make this ride a great makeout spot, if the chemistry is there.

7. Hall of Mirrors: You and your partner entered, thinking it would be easy to get out again, but dead ends abound in this wacky mirror-maze, and each mirror seems to show a more and more distorted image of each of you.

8. Fortune Teller: Whether one of the creepy machines or the even creepier women dressed up in a culturally insensitive costume, you cross someone's palms with silver and get your future told. Will it be happiness forever with your partner, or will ill tidings be bound your way? (Feel free to use this online tarot spread for extra fun!)

9. Wildcard: Any situation of your choosing happens in a carnival today! Go with the flow.

Considering that for a moment, she shakes her head a little. "Nah, I think I'm good."

"That'll be the check then," she said, waving at a waitress.

"So did the burger live up to the hype?"

"Oh definitely! I might have to move here just for that," she teases, finishing off her drink as well.

She laughed as the waitress dropped the check into their table.

"Well, you wouldn't be the first to do that," she replied.

"Well, then I feel less guilty about it." She giggled again, watching as the check was placed down.

"You sure you don't want me to help?"

She nodded, decisively.

"My treat, absolutely. Such an experience should be total, right?"

"I guess so," she replies, still feeling just a bit bad. "But just know, when you visit Bayville, I'm totally spoiling you."

Even if she has to borrow a bit of money from Jean or something.

She nodded.

"I'll do my best to not say the exact same things when it's my turn," she replied.

She giggled. "Good. But don't worry, I'll remind you if you do."

"I'd expect nothing less," she replied, fishing in her purse for her wallet, counting out the amount plus a 20% tip. Place like this, even if it wasn't just the right thing, you invested in the next time.

"We're going to end up a big ouroboros of favors, aren't we?"

"Yeah, probably. But that sounds pretty normal for friends, right?"

[personal profile] batgirl_babs 2021-05-02 03:07 am (UTC)(link)
"Probably," she responded, sliding out of her seat, holding a hand to her chest with a feigned moment of hauteur. "At least when you're as amazing as we are together."

She laughed, lightly nudging Barbara as they headed out of the restaurant. "Yeah, we are pretty amazing, huh?"

She linked an arm through hers, with a nod.

"And absolutely fabulous."
