WELL... that's pretty much a wrap! I might go through and distribute prizes for after 6 AM, but for now, I am le tired lol. Overall I think this thread went pretty well! It was really gratifying to see people get so into it and write whole dang novels about their dragons' exploits. That's the stuff that makes me feel successful in my own writing. :D
And a big thank you to everyone for all the PMs thanking me for their stuff! That gives me the warm fuzzies too. May you all enjoy your prizes, and hopefully I'll be back around next year to give out even more!
It's the end of the week, and most people are all partied out, but Cyclone is still going strong. She whips across the open hall at top speed, putting on an impromptu air show as she makes sure everything is in order. There is much to do: scheduling the last ferry balloons so that guests are not stranded on the Cloudsong, beginning the after-party cleanup operation, ensuring there is enough food and drink to last to the end... but most importantly, distributing all these party favors! There are still so many left to pass out. Nobody is going home empty-handed, not on her watch.
She pauses momentarily to dance to the music of a nearby band. Her jewelry jingles merrily as she whips around and around, enjoying herself thoroughly. Then she is pressing trinkets into the hands of her fellow dancers and moving on. She samples some delicacies at a food vendor, compliments him warmly, and gives him a necklace. She attends the final performance of one of the dancers, and claps wildly at the end, hovering so she can applaud with her feet as well. Cyclone's mission is to make sure the last day of the Jamboree is as fun as the first, and she takes her duty very seriously.
Gradually the pile of trinkets and prizes left dwindles, but there are still a few left. Cyclone grabs some in her arms, taking off for the last few revelers she can see. "Hey, you!" she calls out. "How would you like some awesome prizes?! We've still got some great stuff..."

"This awesome food isn't going to eat itself! Oh, and here's a friend to help guide you home."

"Be sure to take all your friends with you!" They sure are a boisterous lot, cawing loudly as they drop things at Sylvan's feet.

Cyclone rushes up and pushes one last stack of food into Lifeanth's hands. "There you go! Safe travels, everyone!"

"You look like you need some directions! These lovely ladies can help you find the right balloon, I think "

Cyclone comes haring in between the two faes, oblivious to the tension in the air. "Here, hold this!" She hands Titania something that squawks in confusion.

Those last few moments of peace get shattered by a whirling spiral who swoops down on them, trills "Have a great festival!" and hands Grey some trinkets.

The spiral comes back over to them, just as cheery as at the start. "Nice to see you again!" she chirps. "Hope it was great for you all!"

"Did somebody say wonderful gifts? I've got wonderful gifts!" Cyclone swoops down to distribute them with a vengeance.
