°✿ Hanami Festival✿°
Sunday, May 1st 7:00 EST
Balmung: Plum Springs, Yanxia
On behalf of Princess Ebisu
(The legend is back!)
Princess Ebisu invites you to join her on a new journey with inspiration from the Southern Isles. Hanami is the tradition of flower viewing. and what better place to view flowers than the hidden island of Plum Springs in the misty mountains of Yanxia?
Performers and food vendors will be present in one area, while another is sectioned off for more quiet reflection.
This year there will be a bit of a twist! With Hanami corresponding with Lei Day, there will be special significance to the flowers presented at the Springs, food inspired from the Southern Isles, and of course, beautiful geisha to keep everyone entertained.
Cannot fly to Plum Springs?
Don’t worry, our lovely falcon porters will carry you up to the festival! See you there! ♥
Event Document: Coming soon!
We are looking for PERFORMERS, GEISHA, and VENDORS for our event! The event is eastern themed, but anyone is welcome! Performances are not limited to just song and dance, although we love that too!
If you would like to sign up, please join our event discord: https://discord.gg/aNQRcMv3SC
This year we would love to see a lei flower seller! Would you like to help us?

Mahito - he’s the best on this list by FAR. his ability??? that just means he change himself to literally whatever the hell you desire in a hug he can be real big and holding you or more down to your size and closer to you or he can be squishy or not and also he’s a manipulative prick so he’d probs be able to catch on when you need a hug vs when you need space and can probably tell you all the little things you wanna hear or simply remain silent or whatever the hell u want. Even if he’s just doing it to manipulate u its a damn good hug I’d take it. Be careful tho he may give u a bad hug on purpose JUST to annoy u.
Jogo - honestly??? he’s pretty good he’s super duper warm which is GREAT in the winter and the only downsides is that he’d shove you away or kill you OR would be super awkward bc hes probably never had a hug before. But still if he hugged you?? it’d be pretty cool ig.
Dagon - im sorry but its a 1 outta 10 for me man. Dagon just??? cold and wet and it feels almost little slimy and uncomfortable. They’re enthusiastic though, so at least there’s that.
Haruta - congratulations !!! you’ve just earned yourself one (1) parasite !! now that you’ve started hugging him he’s never letting go he’s latched on he hugs on tighter if you try to leave or push him away and despite what u may think hes surprisngly strong smh he is a fighter and stuff after all. He just holds u close and squeezes u tightly maybe buries his head in your shoulder idk. No amount of convincing gets him to let go. He might agree to let go if u offer to hold his hand or something instead though but then he’d drag you around everywhere maybe
Eso - its a good hug !! once you get the hang of it, at least. You’ve gotta be reaaal careful with his back bc he doesnt tend to like it being touched so like yknow you might be the only one getting hugged or you may have to just veery carefully figure out where is safe to put your hands. but in the end its a real good hug!! he’s pretty gentle because he tries not to hurt you or anything.
Hanami - it’s a little awkward at first bc first of all there’s Hanami’s arm wrap and then second of all Hanami hasn’t much experience with hugs. Although I can imagine Dagon may have hugged them sometimes so maybe not. Either way though it’s a nice hug and you can’t help but to feel calmed by it they just project an aura of peace and both of you could just stay like that for a while.
All the plans have been made and I can’t wait to get back to beautiful Japan for the 2015 Cherry Blossom season. #japan #sakura #hanami (at Fujiyoshida-shi, Yamanashi, Japan)

Join in with these two kitties as they witness vibrant pink petals being whirled around by spring winds underneath the cherry trees.

Anyone else dreamed/experienced this exciting tradition?

The cherry tree bloom at the Brooklyn Botanic Garden is picking up steam. To check where the trees are in their blossoming, see the BBG’s Cherry Watch feature on its website. (This photo is from last year.) Coming up: the garden’s annual Sakura Matsuri, which highlights traditional Japanese arts, dance, and food, is April 29–30, rain or shine. : @ty_iv for @NYCgo

Back in March, I met with Mia and Iona to have a picnic with the plum blossoms. As I am still avoiding trains and other crowded/closed spaces, I had to walk 3+ hours to get to the park and back, so that’s why I am wearing a style that would fit sneakers.
We stopped by Fru-Full Umegaoka to get fruit treats and pancakes for our picnic. Sadly, it was really windy that day, so we spent most of the picnic trying to protect the food from the dust. You can see how Iona had to help me detangle my hair from the branches because of the wind.
Outfit rundown:
Skirt: thrifted Pink House (ribbon in my hair is originally the waist sash)
Denim jacket: thrifted
Music crop knit: thrifted and modified Jane Marple
Belt: offbrand
Pink top under: Heattech by Uniqlo
Retro phone pin: Mayokichiya
Wood harp brooch: Zackzack Seiffen
Earrings: modified vintage
Other brooches by various artists who don’t have SM

Thinking of spring brings back memories of sakura (桜) and hanami (花見) in Tokyo. The brief blooms often infect me with some melancholy. The blossoms at Aoyama Cemetery (青山霊園) have that effect in abundance; however, I often break that sadness by thinking anyone able to afford a family grave here must have lived a good life.
This photo was taken on a brief detour one fine spring morning almost 7-years ago.
My friends always found me alittle strange, especially when i took them on shortcuts through this Cemetery

Whenever my patreon poll ends in a tie, I’d normally randomly pick a winner to draw. But this round, my patrons voted for the final two to go on a date instead! Can’t say no to such a cute request~♥
