NICO: Happy Fourth or whatever.

NICO: The point is I got fireworks. And by that I mean: wanna light 'em up later?

NICO: I can provide both food and booze, hilariously.

“This random dude came up to me with the best pickup line of the year and I kind of regret not giving him my real number now. He was all ‘Baby, you remind me of the constitution because you look like a national treasure’, like, it was a fucking good one. What was I thinking?”

“You bet your entire fucking grandma I’m ready for our lord and savior Nic Cage,” Cindy said, bubbling with excitement despite her attempt to mask that with her favorite try-hard cool kid ehhh whatever tone of voice. She was a teenager, after all — couldn’t be that impressed by anything happening in a small town. Wasn’t going to miss out on the chance to model her favorite shirt, though. “Stays on the whole weekend no matter how gross it gets. Fashun.”

“This is actually my first fourth of July in Beaumont and... this place is bizarre. Why are there guns and strippers everywhere?” she asked, brows raised to emphasize her befuddlement at the scale of it all. Exaggerating a little bit, sure, but somehow the small town celebration felt way more over the top than the ones she had experienced in Nashville, and Bastille Day back home was definitely no match in terms of sheer patriotic madness. “Someone actually walked by my house and shouted ‘USA USA’ at 1 am.”

Same procedure as every year. Major and his Ma had set up shop in their usual corner of the park — Main Square didn’t necessarily care for their supernatural shenanigans. A clearly homemade (or ‘authentic’) sign was in place, promising spiritual counseling with a whole sixer of Major’s special brewings on the side. All for the neat old price of $17.76. Bargain.

“Sup, happy freedom, my friend,” Major greeted when someone passed his little set-up. Ma had managed to leave him in charge of the business at all the most uneventful times of day, and he was honestly bored out of his mind, alone with his crystal ball. And he’d had a few samples of the good stuff already, so he was feeling far too talkative to just lone it out. “The spirits are tellin’ me you’re in dire need of a listenin’ ear, and I got two of ‘em.”

SPIN THE WHEEL OF (MIS)FORTUNE

We have a very special wheel coming to town...to participate is free, but the consequences...well, they may last forever. Only kidding, but do know that there will be a 50/50 chance of your character winning something good, or bad! For example, you might win a year pass to the Beaumont Picturehouse, or you might get volunteered as a clown for the Beaumont Rodeo!  It’s all a luck of the draw — or in this case, a spin of the wheel. There will be a grand prize of  $5,000 for one lucky winner. Do you dare spin the wheel?

OOC :If you dare to spin the wheel of fortune, send the ask “I’m in!” from your character’s blog to the main. If you’d like to enter multiple characters, list their names as well. Entries must be sent in no later than Thursday, 11 July, 21:30 gmt. Ensure you have your submit boxes turned on, as the outcomes of your wheel spins will be sent to you. Please note: entering the wheel spin may result in something unpleasant happening to your character that you may not like! By entering, you accept this risk.

The sun bears down on you and people are gathered all around the wheel for an exciting chance to spin it. You may get is a great prize or a not so great outcome, but you are a brave soul who fears nothing. You set the wheel spinning…the seconds tick by agonizingly as the wheel turns…stopping now…

And the result is in…

IMANI LARSON, YOU HAVE WON A TRIP TO CUMBERLAND CAVERNS!

An overnight adventure at the Cumberland Caverns awaits you, lucky winner!  Unlike the other caves in Tennessee, Cumberland Caverns is the only one that offers live concerts. Along with 32 miles of trails for you to explore, the cave system is home to the Volcano Room, a natural amphitheater with superb acoustics. Enjoy a concert hosted by Bluegrass Underground, dine free, and explore the caves to your heart’s content! Transportation for you plus one guest from Beaumont to the caverns will be arranged.

Well, well, well...

Everyone’s been itching for a spin at the wheel of doom-slash-fortune, and finally they get a turn! Your spins have now been submitted to your inbox. If you wanted your character to receive a spin but we missed them, notify us ASAP! There are still 5 unused spins that we never got to give out (be warned though, there are 2 good and 3 bad outcomes left!). All the spins were done by a computerized, random spinner for fairness. As stated before, there are no take-backs on bad spins. You have sealed your fates. Happy Fourth of July and God bless Beaumont!

Please note: this concludes our Fourth of July event! You are of course allowed to continue threads from the event as you wish, but please do not make any new starters regarding it using the bmontfourth tag. We hope you enjoyed!
