The work to gather everything was done. Everyone has pulled together to get what was needed and make it look nice. A large bonfire pile was made on the beach and awaited DewPaws arival. Other things were set in neat and decorative order on leaves and split logs. The party ws ready and just needed the new make shift tribe to get it going. Dancer was exausted from trecking back and forth fetching this and getting that. Now she sat taking a break before she would do her dance. With all hopes that Crosscurrent would make a showing so tht he might see it as well.

Llune has been helping prepare for the celebration, and is likewise exhusted and hence sitting contentedly on one of the logs placed precisely for the purpose.
The sun is dipping lower in the sky, only just beginning to suggest that it might eventually paint the sky with fire. The bonfire has yet to be lit, the food is prepared and set out, the sand is still warm, and Llune is content.
Wiggling her bare toes into the sand, Llune plants her palms on the log, and leans a bit backwards, gazing up at the little clouds that drift slowly by. The merry making is due to commence any second, and Llune is enjoying this short reprieve before the dancing and other craziness begins.

Dancer takes a deep breath as she looks up at the sky. She sits right in the sand near Llune. The excitment in her building and pushing out any paart of tired. Turning blue eyes to Peyote she smiles. "What a lovely night this will be. I can hardly wait for the fun to start."

Peyote had likewise been fetching this, rearranging that. Even now, she sat on her knees by the largest of the serving 'platters', carefully tucking in flowers amid the food to make it more appetizing. Flowers had been set in the baskets of water, to float on the surface. She'd even 'marked' out the dance floor with tiny white blooms. They didn't look like much in the bright of the day, but as the sun began to set, their petals caught the light slightly and hinted at the way they would reflect the bonfire's light later.
Hearing Dancer, she glanced up and smiled. "It sure is! I'm just sad that my honey-wine isn't ready yet. It'll be into the next season, at least."

Dancer chuckled a bit. "I'm sure it will be worth the wait." Taking a breath she felt the small butterflies flutter in her belly. "Peyote, will you do a dance tonight as well?" Her smile might have showed she was just a bit nervous.

"If I get the chance, I'd love to," she replied happily as she turned back to review her flower work before adding a bloom here and taking away a bloom there. "But I wasn't ever one of the Village's main dancers. That wasn't why I was born, after all."

The end of her statement made Dancer lift a brow. "Weren't you born because your parents wanted young?" A slight giggle escaped her as she spoke. "One day I will have a young one to love as well but for now I can lavish all my love on everyone here as I would my own family." The mention of family made her smile fade for just a moment but a light shake of the head brought it back again.

Peyote giggles at that and turns to regard Dancer as she replies. "I'm a child of Recognition. My parents weren't even really friends when it happened. When I showed a joy in arranging the Festival of Flood and Flower, making sure the decorations were just right, and the food and drink were perfect, they said that's why I was born: So the Village would have the most wonderful Festivals ever."

The youthful face smiles warmly. "And you are a wonder at what you do. Everything looks so lovely with the little we could find. I can't even imagin what your home looked like when you had everything you needed. What a shame you can't send. I'm sure it would take ones breath away." Nibbling lightly on a bit of fish Dancer looked to the water. "I hope Crosscurrent comes so you can meet him. So everyone can meet him." Then her tummy did the flip flop and she bit her lip at the thought of dancing for him.

Peyote smiles brightly, moving to the next thing that needs some decoration: the sitting logs. "Oh, it was lovely! Especially after a flood. And it's not a shame I can't send. Sending just isn't something I was meant to do, is all." Then Pey stopped and looked over as Dancer, "Oh! There's another new elf?" surprised

There was that warm feeling again and it made her giggle as she nodded. "Yes, he is a water elf. He lives in the vast deep. His name is Crosscurrent and he's....." Did she just sight a little? Then snapped to her sences again, "He's very nice and enjoys trying all the foods I bring him from the land. His tail is a dark shade of red and his hir is sooo long with streaks of blue in it." Then she remembered the thing she liked best about him. "And his eyes. His eyes are as green as fresh leaves in the deepest part of the forever green."

Now her face really turned red. As she shook her head a little. "No... Well not really. Maybe." Taking a breath she started to explain. "He took me into the vast deep. Down under the water to see the amazing things there. Of course I could not breath for long so he placed his lips to mine and gave me breath. Several times." Of did she look dreamy eyed as she remembered. "It was wonderful."

Peyote giggles, little bubbles of laughter coming up her throat. "You should tell him that's a good way to breath up here too!"

She laughed and blushed some more shaking her head lightly. "He knows how to breath air as well so I will hve to think of something better." Giving Pey a little wink she grins. "If he does come tonight he should know or he is thick." Rolling her eyes just a bit she sighs, "As long as Blaze doesn't get to uuummm caught up in the moment of it all." Now she laughs and wrinkles her nose. "Then you can kiss him." She grins like a cat who ate the canary.
