For tonight we'll merry merry be
WHO: Everyone!
WHERE: Outside De Chima
WHEN: August 15
WHAT: Swear-in! At the Ren Faire.
WARNINGS: Cleavage probably
Huzzah and raise a glass of mead! This month's swear-in ceremony takes place outside the city of De Chima, in a woodsy area where the De Chima Renaissance Faire is being held! ImPorts are invited to attend a special preview day before the gates open for regular faire weekends, welcoming only imPorts, actors, and VIP ticket buyers from the native population.
Attendees will be greeted by costumed actors lining the path into the grounds of the faire, including those portraying Queen Elizabeth and her court, Robin Hood and his merry men, and even some who seem to be dressed in renfaire-ized versions of popular imPorts' costumes.
Before they can reach the festivities proper, imPorts will be herded into the costume rental stall and be strongly, strongly, strongly encouraged to dress in period garb, available for free, one day only! Ladies and gents alike are invited to lace up a bodice, put on some knight's armor or don some colorful peasant clothing. Or pirate clothing or elf ears. It's the spirit of Faire that's fun, not the historical accuracy.
Feeling hungry? Why not visit one of several pubs on the grounds, where lots of grub and drinks are available? Not only does the faire offer fried Oreos, fried pickles, fried butter and fried pretty much anything, a turkey leg-eating contest will pit you against up to three other imPorts in a head-to-head battle of stomach, with the winner getting free drink tickets! Speaking of drinks, a pub crawl is making a continuous loop around the faire. Bawdy jokes, silly songs and lots of mead quaffing are encouraged!
The faire also features a variety of entertaining shows and demonstrations, including fire-eating, choreographed swordplay, magicians and acrobats! There's an archery copitition for those looking to win a golden arrow from Maid Marian, and, of course, there is the Royal Joust occuring every 3 hours. Between the daring competitions on horseback, imPorts are invited to test out their own jousting skill—although their steeds are, err, a little smaller.
Those that leave after the first jousting competition (around noon) will have just enjoyed a nice day at the faire. Those that stay longer though will notice people becoming a little more dedicated to their roles than previously. While in the morning everyone spoke in exaggerated accents and call everyone 'mi'lady' and 'mi'lord' like good community actors, by after noon they start being genuinely spooked by anyone dressed in modern garb, and abandon their decorated food booths filled with oil fryers and ovens and begin setting up genuine fire pits to roast goose and pig over.
And it's not just the actors impacted.
Thanks to a faerie wish, those imPorts that remain at the ren faire after noon will feel compelled to take on the role of their costume. Dressed as a blacksmith? Go find your anvil and hammer. A knight? Get ready for that afternoon joust, it's about to get real. Pirates will maraud and...well. You get the idea. People will play their part.
Anyone that remained in their normal clothes will not be impacted, but won't be able to shake anyone out of their apparent trance without physically removing them from the faire. Note, this task of removing people will be impeded by faeries that want to enjoy the fun of watching everyone run around playing their roles. Would-be rescuers may find their clothing suddenly changed into costume garb so they fall under the spell as well, or find themselves unable to leave a suddenly appeared faerie circle, forced to just sit and watch- or beg for rescue themselves (as if anyone would be foolish enough to mess with a faerie circle!).
The spell will break at midnight, releasing everyone instantly back into their normal state of mind. Hopefully no one much worse for wear.

[ Bean doesn't really care one way or the other about what toy weapons the boy would have preferred. That's not what caught his curiosity. ]
What are you doing with those faeries?
no subject
Oh. They’re friendly.
Just been talking with them for a while.
[ A while would be a week or more, playing mostly harmless pranks on unsuspecting victims.]
no subject
[ Don't think he didn't see that. ]
no subject
No.
Guess he just grabbed the wrong one.
no subject
[ Bean rolls his eyes. ]
Look. I don't care if you prank people, but sooner or later, an adult's gonna notice and they won't be as hands off as I am.
no subject
How are they going to know I did it? Nobody saw me.
[ And yes, that's him admitting it. Well-- he had help. ]
Besides, I didn't change it myself.
It was like...a team effort. [ Yeah, that, sure.]
no subject
[ But then, Bean is more observant than most adults. ]
You're encouraging them.
no subject
Okay.
Are you going to tell?
