Ada was certain she would make some new friends today. She woke up feeling refreshed, and ready to face the music... literally. She was going to attend the Lilac Music Festival.

She had a nice breakfast of eggs on toast and walked over to the Oceania Park district.
Who knows who she would see there, maybe run into an old friend? a new friend?

Even if she was alone, she was determined to have a lot of fun. She saw different concert arenas, and food booths. She had her ticket in hand ready to walk right up to the security guard to get entry into the festival.

"Here's my ticket, sir. May I go in?"


She walked through the crowds over to a stage that said open eyes -182.
She heard of that band somewhere before, she liked them a lot.

She then walked up to a nearby food truck and asked, "One funnel cake please... Thanks."


Excited to hear the music, she grabbed a seat near the top of the amphitheater.

This place was fantastic!

"Thank you very much," the redhead told the ticketmaster, doing his very best to emulate some sort of Elvis Priestley. Except that during his performance he'd dropped both his book and the actual ticket. Sheepishly he dropped down to pick it up, and with a n equally sheepish smile, he apologized to the vendor. "Sorry, miss. Tricks o' the trade, I guess. Haha. Anyways. Let's ignore my little slipup there, yeah? Okay." His sheepishness bled away into a bright smile. "Thanks! See ya."
A few minutes later (well... Maybe half an hour - he really loved to chat with the various vendors, apparently), he stumbled over to the first stage that caught his eye - a stage for the band Open-Eyes 182. Possibly a pun? He knew they had a Blink-182 back home. Nix laughed - yeah, definitely a pun. Or coincidence. Either way, it was funny. And BOOM.
Nix spotted Ada a few seats above him. He waved at her...
And almost dropped the five or so little things he was holding, including cotton candy and funnel cake. Well - funnel cakes.
"Heheh. Nooot the smartest idea, yeah?"

Adamaris couldn't help but laugh when she saw Nix drop everything he was holding so he could wave to her.
"Do you need some help over there? I have an extra seat... You can sit here if you want..."


Ada went over to help him pick up his food off of the ground.
"Five second rule, right?" she smirked.

After grabbing some of his food, well a lot of his food, because it looked like he bought out the funnel cake store... she went to sit back in her seat.

"Do you think this actually is Blink 182? Or a cover band? Like, maybe they didn't have enough money to pay for them so they brought a copy cat band or something..
I guess we'll find out in a minute!"



Ada started eating one of Nix's many funnel cakes. "Do you mind?"
She looked up at him with a question on her face.

Still laughing, Nix nodded. "Yeah, some help'd be real nice. Thanks, Ada. I had a seat over the -"
And there it was - someone had taken his seat, the best of the row, possibly the best seat he'd found up-to-date, and it was a big group, too. He sighed and slumped back into the offered seat. "Emphasis on 'had', I guess." Nix stifled a laugh. "You don't mind me sitting next to ya, do you? Shame - you gotta sit with a chatterbox. Heheh. Anyways -" and here he spotted Ada snacking on one of his many funnel cakes and smirked, raising an eyebrow. "'Five-second-rule' my butt. Takin' all my funnel cakes. What do you think this is, the Steal-Funnel-Cakes Festival?" Lightly he tapped a fist against her arm, he laughed, taking his own funnel cake from the bag. "I joke. You're welcome, anytime. Anytime." A sweet smile accompanied the statement.
Settling back into what was now his seat, he nodded, pointing to the bandstage. "Yeah, they're probably a knockoff band. Back home in the States, we have this band called Blink-182. Think it's a pun on that. Either that or a terrible cover band." Another bout of laughter. "Who knows - maybe it could be the real deal. You're right - we're gonna find out in a minute, yeah?"

Ada looked innocently up from her funnel cake and saw the band come out.
"Please welcome to the stage the one and the only, 'Open-Eyes 182!!" a narrator yelled into the microphone.

"Guys if you don't know who we are, then you probably a will...." a voice said.

Ada was pretty sure that voice wasn't coming from the stage or the sound booth.
She felt a little uneasy as she heard it.
"Who do you think that was? I can't see the stage from here. I can't tell if it's really them.... Man I was hoping to hear some good music at this festival. Wait... it actually does sound like them. I've never heard this song though... Well, whether it's them or not, I'm enjoying this music! Oh yeah, and don't worry about being a chatterbox. I'm talking more than you are.. hahaha!"

Ada stood up and started dancing to the punk rock. She screamed and moshed to the beat of the music.

"Honestly I'd rather be up here than down in the mosh pit, becasue I don't think I'd be able to walk after the concert. Plus the music is so loud down there you can't even hear it."

"I recognize this song!"

Ada smiled at Nix, and hoped he was having fun too.

After the music stopped, another voice spoke.
"Don't leave until you've paid your fee."

Nix didn't look affected by the voice.

"Nix, did you hear that?"

Ada's questions and replies were drowned out by the reverb of the band's song, the rabid fans in the arena, and of course, Nix's own whooping cheers for the band onstage. It really did sound like Blink-182! Not to say he was shocked - he knew there was such a thing as duplication magic or glamours from his studies - but it still surprised him pleasantly that a good band was being so well-projected. Tossing his hands up in the air, he whooped again, a loud sound that still got lost in the reverberation of hundreds of fans. "WOOOHOOO! HEL -UM, HECK YEAH! YOU GO, OPEN-182!"

Finally, after a few songs, Nix slumped back into his seat, understandably exhausted, and took a sip of his soda. Not nearly as good as coffee... but it'd do. Much more practical here, anyways. He laughed. "You kiddin'? Couldn't here a thing in there. Still can't really hear, heheh. Think the speakers blew my ears out." Tapping one of his ears, and pointing to one of the gigantic speakers onstage, he gave a sheepish smile. "Why?"
"Is there something wrong?"
