Lara was wandering about, and taking her time to look at everything at the market. She had bought a few pieces of art already, and even had a couple cookies for a snack. She stopped by Harmony Healers, knowing that there were a few kids in the community that loved to be around those animals. It didn’t matter if someone could hear or not, animals made people happy. She waved over, seeing Livvy. “You did a very good job!” She said, before dropping her donation in to feed the horses.

Who: Vince Matthews & @docolives

What: Earth Week Scavenger Hunt

Where: State Park

Earth Week meant that the town would spend more time outside, and that was something that Vince needed to do. There were lots of things to see, and it was also a good time to get a bit competitive. He held his paper instructions in his one hand, and Ollie's leash in his other. "So think we've got a chance of winning this one?" he grinned at Livvy as they stepped up to the path, Ollie glancing back and forth at the environment around him.

Who: Jamie Mariadaga-Evans & @docolives

What: Beach Bash

The beach bash had been going great, as with the volleyball game. It was always a fun game, no matter what the outcome was. The party was totally worth it. The bonfire was also something to look forward to, with the sun setting and everything happening so quickly. He walked towards the fire pit, drink in hand. He saw Livvy close by. "Having fun?" he asked her with a grin.

Mandy looked around at the ranch. She smiled to herself. Even though she spent some days there, it had been a really long time since she dedicated hours to just being present and in the moment. She was also quite proud of her big sister. She knew Livvy had gone through a lot and had a lot of drive to push her to this moment. It was something special, and she was excited and happy to see her sister thriving. Throwing her arms around Livvy, she laughed, hugging her tightly. “This is going to be so much fun!” She said happily. “I have a surprise for you.”

The Crown of Shadows Results are in!

“And as the evening comes to a close, it’s time to announce the auction results. Once again, I am Carlton Cartwright and, judging from your bids, I think you all were just as impressed as I was with these impressive contestants and their wonderful dates. But, before we announce the winners and who will be taking home the Crown of Shadows, I want to remind ya’ll of where all of these proceeds are going to. The proceeds of this event are to help the Muttropawlitan keep strays off the streets and to instating a go green initiative around town. From cleaning up Wonderland Park to helping buildings such as All Saint’s Hospital be powered solely by Solar Energy panels, your donations will be a crucial to fixing up the town and, coming in at a whopping $17,205, will be able to not only clean up Wonderland Park and help out the Muttropawlitan, but build a dog park in town, install solar energy panels throughout All Saint’s Hospital, and go towards the funds to build a public pool. Thank you so much for your wonderful contributions and you’ll be sure to see your marvelous contributions come into effect soon. But, now for what you’re all been waiting for-”

Now that you’ve won your charity dates, feel free to play them out on the dash! Please feel free to reach out to your character’s date, plot OOC, and create threads surrounding it. You don’t have to create the date thread right away. So, feel free to take your time with and work together. If you want to wait to have your date thread after the full moon, by all means do that. And last but not least, have fun!! We’re so excited to announce the winners and we hope you are too!

In Crown of Shadows Tradition, we will be awarding crowns to the top two highest bidders as a thank you for their generous donations.

After finally cutting themselves down, your date will take you into the backyard where a projector will be playing “10 Things I Hate About You” onto a sheet that has been tapped to the side of the building to look like a screen.

Starting off with breakfast at The Pie Hole, then move on to the Boathouse where most of the day would be spent out on the water.

Then your date will lead you into the backyard where twinkly lights are set up for a free salsa lesson and a chance to watch the stars.

The winner of this date is... Jasmine Morris.

Hey, sis. So I think Mom had fun today. You know I always love to be able to flex a little bit with my art muscles, hehe! But still, it was a gorgeous day out and I had fun. We should do this more often, make it a fun night type of thing. Maybe next time we can use my studio! I'll provide the wine and supplies, we can bring our pets too. @docolives

[jmiemagvans]

So I have a patient I want to refer over to your clinic. She’s recovering from a sprained ankle after a minor PE injury. I just wanted to know if you were available for a consultation coming up this week. I’ll send over those records once I’ve got it all signed off. 

@docolives​

[vincexmatthews]

Hey, neighbor. So what would you say if I said I bet on your team to win this whole competition? Does that make me a little bit nicer or am I still gonna get sassed by you? You know I love a little friendly competition but I do remember when we were put on opposite teams at school for that flag football game and you... tackled me. What’s new with you? @docolives​

[mcndyhcrtmcn]

I was starting to get lonely without you here, Livvy. Gatsby’s going to be so happy when he sees you, by the way. Also... now that you’re back, I expect you to give me your money at the shop’s booth. Just kidding. Kind of. Buuuut you should still drop on by and say hello to your favorite sister. I’m happy to see you too, don’t worry, I love you more than my dog does!
