Gather 'round, everyone, and have a candy.

Exactly what it says on the tin.
First brush up on some of the general rules outlined here first, then:

1) Labeling the subject with your character's name and canon is up to you, but would make recognition easier.
2) Do go ahead and tag out! The purpose of this mingle post is to get everyone cozy with the setting and the playerbase.
3) If you're up for it, make a reservation. Applications open next week!

Some prompts if you'd like a boost (the first chunk is lifted from the applications page, bless the mods):

A) A new curse has settled upon the city of Vatheon: Suddenly you character realizes they are unable to lie for the duration of a week.
B) What is this? Is that rain? How nice-- wait a minute, is it raining rubber duckies? Seriously?
C) Suddenly, by the force of Vatheon, an over zealous npc, or even your character's friends playing a joke, your character suddenly finds themselves wearing clothes they otherwise would never wear.
D) The city of Vatheon is under attack (again). Giant sea-creatures are wrecking the city (again). Time to prepare for battle.
E) A new plot development has happened and your character has decided to get some more information from one of the NPCs.

F) Whatever the heck your beautiful heart desires.

[Ah yes, going around and asking questions to gather information, that's what she's best at! What sort of detective's assistant would she be if she didn't?

First order of business--tapping a random on the shoulder!

Anybody unlucky enough to be subject to this might turn to see a girl with a very average appearance and a bright smile on her face.

Well, except the blue hair and the very pink kimono. And the ensuing British accent:]

Hello, excuse me! Sorry for the trouble, but where are we presently?

[It does, in fact, appear to be raining rubber duckies.

This guy doesn't seem to be particularly affected by it. Sure, there's a duck impaled on one of his horns, but he's going about his business like it's no big thing.

... Did one of the ducks just disappear into his hair?]

Cierra | Rivera: The Promised Land

[burntoashes]

[SQUEAK!

Cierra almost didn't feel the object bouncing off of her head with her hat obstructing her vision. She lifts the brim and looks up, eyes widening in surprise as she sees a veritable storm of duck-shaped objects raining down. She pulls her hat down tighter over her head and moves to seek shelter, worriedly leafing through her memories to see if she could recall a shield spell.

Then she finally stops, whipping her staff out and shouting something.]

Oh my, please stop raining!

[Silence.

Cierra lifts her hat up again, surveying the scene with some satisfaction.]

Thank goodness for magic.

[Never mind the sudden influx of new very yellow ducklings trip-tropping around the plaza, still quack-squeaking.]

[Who likes dogs?

Because this girl comes along with a particularly protective white German Shepherd.

Not that she minds the protectiveness at all, especially not when they were leaving one awful place and then suddenly found themselves in another one. Although Fiona doesn't actually know if this place is truly awful yet...surely nothing can be as bad as her "grandfather" and his designs for her.

Speaking of designs...she is still in this outfit that was given to her upon her entrance to Belli Castle. Fiona directs Hewie to stay and approaches someone.]

Excuse me? Do you, ah, know where the nearest clothing store would be?

Grandpa Harley | Homestuck

[hihohalley_away]

[Well. He was dead. And now he's not. At least, he's pretty sure he's not. Who ever heard of an underwater afterlife?

Okay, maybe animals that make their home in the water, but besides that.

Grandpa Harley is a sorely confused man.]

What in blue blazes...?

Yui | Angel Beats! -> B

[suplexes]

[So this girl is trying to punch and kick the rubber duckies off of her.

She also has a mouth that can make a sailor blush.]

What the hell is this?! I'll kick your asses!!
