Autumn Fair - Bobbing for Apples

[Torrie]

**Torrie uses a weave of air to float a giant bucket filled with water and apples and sets it down on a clear space on the fair grounds**

 

 

 

 

Come one! Come all! It's time to get your head wet! 

 

 

As I cannot send you a real apple, these apples have a special weave and when they leave the water, they will give you a fortune! 

 

So grab some googles and get to dunking! No hands please! 

[Rhea]

*dons goggles and bobs*

 

*mumbles with an apple in her mouth*

 

Refreshing!

 

I need a towel!

[Torrie]

lol **Torrie uses a weave to dry the water from Rhea**

 

 

Our first bobber has taken the bait... er... apple!

 

 

And her fortune says:

 

Your shoes will make you happy today.

 

 

That is an interesting one. lol The right shoes can make or break you. What type of shoes are you wearing, Rhea?

[Rhea]

Awesome!!!

 

I love my shoes! I'm wearing my DANSKO clogs!

[Daruya]

Oooh, fun!  I just Traveled in from D.C. to go bobbing for apples!

 

*grabs the goggles from Rhea, places them carefully over her eyes, and dunks her head in the barrel*

 

Mmphphmph!  *Dar exclaims triumphantly as she emerges with an apple*

[Guest]

OOooh! Me too!

 

*takes goggles from the very wet Dar and splashes into the barrel*

 

*comes up for air*

 

You two made this look easy!

 

*finally finds an apple on the third try*

 

Third time lucky!

 

*passes goggle to next dunker*

[Sooh]

Goggles? Who needs goggles?

 

*places goggles on the table and blindly dunks head*

 

*resurfaces with a big apple*

 

 

Mmm... tasty!

[Mystica]

*grabs google*

*shoves face under water*

*ignores butt sticking out like a lighting house in the dead of night*

Are you really in DC, Dar? I live about 2 hours from there!

 

Your apple says: Accept something that you cannot change, and you will feel better.

 

Sounds about right!

Third times the charm, right!

 

I really like your fortune! It's a good one!

 

To determine whether someone is beautiful is not by looking at his/her appearance, but his/her heart.

Love fall and its apples. I just made an apple pie a few weeks ago! 

 

Yours is a good one too!

 

For hate is never conquered by hate. Hate is conquered by love.

Can't resist. **Uses a weave to lightly pinch Mysts waving butt**

 

And your fortune is spot on:

 

Nothing seems impossible to you.

Yes, until Thursday morning. Staying in Crystal City and attending meetings down on M St. SE today and tomorrow.  Today's meeting went pretty well, actually.

 

Accept something I cannot change, eh?  I wonder what that is?

So true!

[Ryrin]

I can't see without my glasses!

**Plops a pair of glasses on Ryrin so she's not blind** 

[Ryrin]

Got one!!

[Torrie]

And your fortune, Ryrin:

 

You cannot become rich except by enriching others.
