I was looking at a Riverbed
WHO: imPorts!
WHERE: Maurtia Falls Memorial Library
WHEN: April 22nd, all day.
WHAT: Registration in motion at Maurtia Fall’s new and improved library. Come to see the grand unveiling and stay for the snow sculpting contest, fun costumes, or games. You might be encouraged to remain as quiet as possible in a library under normal circumstances, but just today, you can feel free to be as loud as you want!
WARNINGS: None anticipated. Let me know if that should be changed!
Although it’s April, Maurtia Falls is covered in a blanket of glistening snow. And whether the arrival of all these Westerosi folk is to blame for the prolonged winter or that pesky groundhog who saw his shadow, it seems as though spring will not rear its head today at least. But have no fears! A path has been shoveled and the large stone steps leading up to an even larger building are cleared, greatly diminishing the risk of slips (and lawsuits.) Welcome to the newly constructed Maurtia Falls Memorial Library!
Invited guests have been encouraged to come in costume -- dressed as either their favorite literary hero/character or author. And although imPorts are not necessarily book characters, they will find several mini-me versions of themselves running around from children who just wanted to use the day to dress up like their favorite imPort. Is that a tiny Rincewind with a lunchbox luggage? Look at that crazy cotton ball hair on that mini Doc Brown! And that little know-it-all girl is definitely playing a very convincing Kitty Jones!
The day begins with a ribbon-cutting ceremony, which might fill imPorts who know Ambassador Baelish with dread because it means he’s going to give a speech. But it’s surprisingly short and concise, thanking everyone for attending, expressing excitement over what the library means for the city, and stating that this project is the result of everyone’s kind efforts and that it will be immortalized as a true testament of the things they can accomplish as a collective. However, simply because Ambassador Baelish isn’t as long-winded as usual does not mean the others who have been invited to speak will not be. Among such honored guests are Senator Mitchell Hundred and Count Dooku.
But once the ribbon is cut, the large doors are opened to reveal the common area of the library. And if you thought the main room contained all the books the library had to offer, surprise! There are at least three more side rooms that contain everything from comics to classic literature. ImPorts may notice many names fancily engraved into the stone pillars and archways. A little plaque hanging at the entrance indicates that these are the names of natives who have lost their lives in the city of Maurtia Falls and how you can honor the fallen by donating to the families at the front desk. Near that plaque and on display for the event are several signed copies of The Methodical Walter White by Doctor Frederick Chilton (available for purchase), The Luminescent Moon Trilogy which is a series from The City and was loaned generously by Kanaya Maryam (protected by magic seals to prevent theft), and in honor of the recently departed Dorian Gray -- The Picture of Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde is accompanied by a framed picture of the actual Dorian Gray along with a pretentious inscription that says: Forever immortalized and never forgotten.
But books aren’t the only form of entertainment at this Swear In! In the Tony Stark Information/Technology Wing, imPorts are invited to try out a demo of the newest mmorpg ION (ImPorts Opposing Nations) -- a game where you can customize and create your own imPort character, give them a power/costume from a small list, and from there, choose to live heroically or villainously within the world’s setting of a highly corrupt set of nations. As you level up, you get the chance to unlock new powers and abilities or enhance the set you currently have. However, there are still many glitches to be ironed out, so don’t be surprised if your character turns the corner and comes out with the face of Komasan! Or if you encounter something even more unsettling.
If video games aren’t your thing, perhaps you’ll be more interested in heading to one of the classrooms for a featured game of Magic and Mayhem (an RPG table top game that hit the majority report back in February). Or maybe you’re feeling less adventurous and more generous. If so, there are many different money raising events going on with all proceeds donated to those many families who lost loved ones in this city. Feeling photogenic? You can donate your time to take pictures with children and fans at one of the many stations with silly backdrops. It only costs five dollars per picture to allow professional photographers to capture all your best sides and give away a happy memory to a fan. Feeling vindictive? A panel has been set up with popular fanfiction writers from across the country. For only about five dollars per fic, this team of writers will make magic happen and write up any pairing you so choose in any situation -- from as benign to as salacious as you want! (The more lewd it gets, the extra the cost.) None of these writers are profiting personally from this, of course! Oh no, no. It’s all for fun and charity. No lawsuits allowed! But that one writer cosplaying Jeff Winger will tell you it’s the premise of her next big fic, where all the male imPorts enlist Mr. Winger to help them win a huge lawsuit, and as a payment Jeff demands that they [CENSORED].
But perhaps you’re feeling hungry instead? Lunch is served all day in buffet style. Catered by many of the most expensive eateries in Maurtia Falls, you can find piping hot food to all tastes -- whether it’s sweet and spicy wings from Wingin’ It to a bouillabaisse from Francey Meeting You Here. Lettuce Help has also donated a wide variety of fresh salads if none of the warm food meets your dietary requirements. And if you’re just looking for a hot drink on this cold day, the staff at Brewed Awakening is prepared to make you anything from cappuccino to cocoa. All of this is free of charge, but each of the companies have a tip jar out if you really like what you taste.
If you’re feeling competitive and don’t mind the cold, the largest event of the day is taking place outside. It’s a snow-sculpting competition! Participants are invited to make as large and elaborate of snow sculptures as possible. The grand prize winner will receive $1000 and get their sculpture made into an actual statue outside of the library. This will be handpicked by Petyr Baelish himself, so anyone incorporating mockingbirds will have a clear advantage! Of course, everyone’s a winner here, and there will be several small trophies and prizes handed out to anyone who participates. Do bear in mind you have some steep native competition. One sculptor in particular is making a very convincing (and anatomically correct) homage to recent newlyweds Hermann Gottlieb and Newton Geiszler.
And if none of the offered events catch your interest, no one is stopping you from enjoying what is probably the last snowfall of the season. Have snowball fights, make snow angels, be that jerk who puts snow down your friend’s back. The only limit to your fun is your own imagination! That and some of the killjoy imPorts who are attending the event as well. But hey. That’s not on Ambassador Baelish!

[ Especially under the shadow of his father's footsteps. Baelish had heard a few whispered stories of Norman Osborn. Nothing considerable. But also nothing terribly nice. ]
What is it you most wish to achieve in your time here? Whether it's with your business or otherwise?
[ Baelish needs scientific partners. And maybe he has something Normie needs. Maybe theirs could be a mutually beneficial partnership. ]
no subject
[And while he may be invested in OsCorp now, the company only exists because the other Norman Osborn wished to expand his legacy to this Earth. The only thing keeping Normie on board after he left was his stubborn pride in giving up his family's company to anyone else.]
I'm working on reclaiming and reshaping the Osborn legacy. I don't doubt you've heard things about the other Norman Osborn, but that isn't how I'd like my family to be remembered. We can be so much better than him.
What about you, Ambassador? What is it you wish to achieve? [He looks around.] Or have you already achieved it with this library?
no subject
It can be difficult to outlive the shadow of our parents -- the legacy they left behind. Most can never escape it. But there are a rare few who can find their own way -- build from the ground up. I, myself, have been in a similar position to you, my friend. And I imagine you'll do great work to make a huge difference with OsCorp, but more importantly...with your name.
[ The ambitious generally do well with that. ]
As for what I hope to achieve, well, much though I enjoy serving as an ambassador for the imPorts, I will confess that I've an attachment and even a sort of loyalty to this city and its people. I want to do what I can to help shift the reputation of Maurtia Falls from being that seedy ImPort city to something a bit upstanding and worth living in.
[ A beat. ]
I've been thinking of running for mayor in November, quite truthfully.
no subject
Don't I know it. But to me, when the options are fight or get buried under the weight of the legacy I was given, well... there's no choice at all, really. I've found it helps to savor the little victories.
[Victories to remind him that the fight is worthwhile, and that it all isn't futile.]
That sounds like it could be a great idea. Senator Hundred has shown that imPorts can be taken seriously in the political arena, and I'd say this library shows Maurtia Falls your commitment to this city. I've been wandering around... it's clear a lot of care went into the design and construction of this place.
no subject
Well, truth be told, I've had this idea for quite some time now. Certainly long enough to have drafted up the plans well before I was able to get the permits and approval. It's been a long time coming. But it is nice to see my vision realized.
[ A slight gesture toward Normie. ]
And even better to have someone who frequented the original library within Maurtia Falls who can compare the two. De Chima may boast the greatest technology, but I would like to hope that now when it comes to a vast accumulation of knowledge in one central place, my city can compete.
no subject
When are you planning to run for mayor?
no subject
[ Petyr says with a playful smile. ]
I have not announced my run formally yet. But I have been planting the seeds. With luck, my campaign will have a public debut come summer. And I would aim for this upcoming November's election. Since I plan to focus a great deal on education, it would be the perfect time for the disgruntled teachers to rally behind me while they are off for the summer.
no subject
[Normie grins, clearly joking.]
Keep me posted, I'm certainly interested to see what you'll do if you do formally run.
[Normie isn't one to normally donate to a political campaign, but he certainly has the funds to do so. However, before he commits to anything, he has to vet the candidate.]
