[AUDIO]

[Pilouette is still a little nervous about making announcements like these. While she's gained a little confidence as of late, she can't help but feel a little bit anxious. With a deep breath, turns on the audio function, and starts her announcement.]

H-Hi, everyone! Pilouette here! Um, I hope all you New Feathers are settling in okay! I know it can be tough, but...um...it gets a little easier after a while!

[She can't help but cringe inwardly as she says that. Being in Luceti may be easier after a while, but she's still not sure if getting used to being here is a good thing or not.]

And like, speaking of! I just wanted to tell everyone about the upcoming New Feather Party! This time, it's going to be a beach party! It'll be at 1:00 PM on the 18th at...um, at the beach. [She did already say it was a beach party...she frowns briefly, making a note to try scripting out her announcement next time.]

It'll be lots of fun and there will be a lot of food and stuff, too! But um...also...if anyone wants to make a dish to share with everyone then go ahead and bring something! Like a potluck, you know? I really hope I'll see you all then!

[ACTION]
[During the day Pilouette will be poking around the item shop, looking for beach-y summer-type things; beach balls, squirt guns, water balloons, beach chairs and the like. She'll also be putting up a few small posters about the party around the village in case anyone missed the announcement.

Later on, she'll be in the library (which she eventually decided probably wasn't a haunted death trap as she previously thought) looking for cookbooks and scribbling down notes and recipes.]

Right!

What about setting up some beach volleyball or something too? We did that for a Brave Vesperia outing once and everyone really enjoyed it.

Oh! That's a great idea! I bet some other sports-type stuff would be good, too! Like...like a soccer ball or something. Ooooh, maybe I can find some badminton stuff...!

[Suddenly, a thought pops into her head.]

Hey, maybe, I should ask if there are sports from other worlds that might be fun...

You could always have some water balloons or squirt guns or something too, especially if it's hot out. Or maybe even a few watermelons for people to split!

[This sounds like it's going to be awesome!]

Those are great ideas! Everyone loves water balloons and stuff! ...But...wouldn't it be easier to just cut the watermelon's beforehand instead of splitting them at the beach? I mean, we'll have coolers and stuff so they won't get all yucky...

[Clearly not familiar with this particular tradition.]

Huh? But splitting them is part of the whole game. You don't do it in your world?

[He always just assumed it was what you did with watermelons.]

I don't think so. I've never seen it anyway.

[Maybe people have been doing that forever and she just never knew! ...Maybe people have been splitting watermelons without her!]

It's really a game, though? How do you split it if you're not cutting it open?

That's easy-- you put it down on the ground, and then everyone takes turns being blindfolded and trying to hit it with a stick. The first person to hit it hard enough to make a crack in it wins. It's kind of like a pinata, just with a watermelon instead.

And then you cut it up and eat it afterward.

[She's nodding as he speaks, taking in the idea.]

Yeah...Yeah, that does sound kinda fun! Okay! I'll do what I can to set something like that up, too! I bet even people who haven't heard of it would have a lot of fun with it!

Great! Thanks, Pilouette. I think people would really enjoy it too, and besides, when someone wins, everyone gets something to eat. So it's great even for the people who don't end up winning.
