One Month One World One Year Challenge (Selena Lilly)
So, I started this off in the hopes that I could keep up with it, and immediately couldn't. I've decided to instead do it in this thread, but please check out the main thread with all its wonderful st...
The next day was the Festival Of Lights, luckily for Selena, who desperately needed a distraction. She'd carefully put on a yukata that she'd been loaned by one of the neighbours, and actually found she was looking forward to the whole thing. They'd had festivals in San Myshuno, but the only one she'd ever envied tourists for was the Romance Festival. She'd never been, not even when she had a boyfriend, and the other festivals weren't really worth risking getting caught sneaking out.
But this festival was beautiful, with lanterns, and lights floating down the river, and the smell of sweet taiyaki drifting through the air. She could hear the soft murmur of a growing crowd, and felt a tentative smile creep onto her face. No one would scold her for being here, or make her go home, or anything like that. She really could just enjoy herself.
This is also one of my favourite shots of this day! Selena got to make a wish, and I can't help but be curious what she'd wish for. Maybe 'better luck in romance this year', although perhaps that's too much of a hint for the storyline.
