Trailblazer and Galaxi are here to enjoy the festivities with their daughter, Brigid! Currently, both shadow and nature dragons are absolutely mesmerized by the Spiral tying himself into knots and somehow managing to not kill himself, but they've been enjoying both the food and the party games all day.
Brigid in particular has been avidly watching the wind-born Skydancer playing the lute mid-air; fidgeting in one place as she waffles back and forth between daring to ask him to teach her his tricks or not. Something her mother noticed, and she couldn't resist the urge to joke about if Brigid had a new boyfriend, much to her daughter's mortal embarrassment.
Galaxi, on the other hand, is embracing his inner child and got his face painted not ten minutes ago, and is currently sporting a cartoonish green dinosaur face on one cheek.
And, if you're really observant, you might notice that every so often, you can spot a glimpse of what seems to be a second Trailblazer...

The Skydancer sets off for a jog through the square, hopping from stall to stall and squeezing themself through the crowd with held breath, asking stall-keepers for ink and a bit of parchment. A quill as well would be ideal, they say, but it´s no big deal unlike the other implements. Yes, it was silly to leave house and embark on traditional festivities without stationery, they admit that readily.
Eventually they emerge from the crowd, successful, and shoot up into the air, finding a bamboo-woven table and settling down by it. They pluck a quill from the back of their wing, set up the stationery - and lie their head besides it on the table.

[i]I know I shouldn´t be using our own feathers as writing quills- but they are so ready-to-use, you know? Plus, I had enough talking to people for a while - besides you here, that is.[/i]
[i]WOW, I´M HONORED![/i]
[i]Tss, you... Heh. Anyway, I´m gonna do the writing - make sure to let me know if there´s anything you want me to include, okay?[/i]
[i]FINE! MAKE SURE TO LISTEN, THOUGH. KEEP THOSE BRAIN-EARS READY.[/i]
[i]Wow, [u]thanks[/u] for the mental image.[/i]

Delta was getting hungry now, and she tried to spot some food booths that she would want to make a quick stop at before continuing her celebrations. She saw a lovely bakery stall with Windsinger cookies and cakes, but she had already had some last year so she decided to go with something different. Hmm... maybe that smoothie place over there! But no, she had just had a smoothie at Mistral Meals earlier that day. She kept walking and, fortunately for her, came across the perfect snack stall. She smiled. This was just what she had in mind!
The stall was made of bamboo supports that held up a green and white striped awning. There were many instruments hanging on the beams, spinning and twirling in the wind. She wondered where they had gotten all of these since a few of them seemed to be running off of magic. One was a cloud of crystal orbs swirling around in a mini tornado by the ground, another was a Windsinger weather vane, and there was also a large cluster of pinwheels that displayed different spiral patterns when they spun around. She approached the dragon behind the counter who was, of course, a Spiral. They twisted around in the air happily, a small green paper hat on their head decorated with Wind emblems.
"I'm Squall! What can I get for you today? We have cotton candy of ALLL kinds here! Strawberry, watermelon, raspberry, granny smith apple, potash peach, and even some untraditional flavors like citrus lionfish! Just look at the menu over there." Squall pointed with his tail at a large bamboo sign to his side.
Delta glanced over the menu, looking immediately at the fruity flavors. Sure, she like meat the best to [i]eat[/i], but snacks were different. She was in the mood for something a little sweeter. And less uncanny made into cotton candy. She turned back to the shopkeeper. "Could I please have the strawberry?" Squall nodded vigorously and swirled around to the back of the booth, grabbing a bag labeled with a picture of a strawberry and pouring it into the machine. Seconds later, pinkish wisps started to appear and the Spiral grabbed a cone to start gathering her dessert. He arrived back at the front of the store with it in his hand, passing it over to her claws in exchange for a couple of Messengers Scrolls. "Oh, I almost forgot! Take this free souvenir as a thank you for buying from Squall's Cotton Candy Sensation, the best cotton candy store this side of the Aergate!" He handed her a paper hat like his but in a different shade of green and Delta took it in her claws, smiling widely. She placed it on her horn (as she didn't have room for it on her head) and waved goodbye. As she left, she took a bite of the cotton candy. This really [i]was[/i] good cotton candy!

Charybdis and Tamago strolled through the festival grounds, newly-purchased beverages in hand, searching for something to do while they enjoyed their refreshments. The pair stumbled upon storytelling spiral and were immediately enthralled by the impressive acrobatics and captivating voice of the dragon before them. While neither one of them were technically new to the Jamboree, Tamago had been tied up in the cooking competition he was a part of, and Charybdis had been tied up hunting down all of the best snacks, so neither one had taken much time to enjoy the entertainment.
The duo listened carefully to the story, both of them having heard mentions of the rebirth of the Crescendo, but never the full story (and certainly not told in such a fascinating manner). The big finish was really the cherry on top of the incredible performance, and Tamago and Charybdis joined the rest of the gathered crowd in enthusiastic applause as the prizes rained down from the replica Crescendo.

Zephyr felt... a wave of emotions welling up. Disappointment, surprise, gratitude, happiness...
He gratefully took the mask from Frostflake.
"Thank you, thank you! Oh, I'll seriously pay you guys back for this one. I've been wanting this mask for [I]centuries[/I]! C'mon, let me treat you to some drinks and snacks before the celebration's over!"

Zephyr listened on to the spiral's story with interest. As he applauded at its end, he wondered if he'll make new friends this time too. After all, it [I]has[/I] been a really long time since he last set foot outside his den.
... he strolled over to a stall selling masks. Perhaps a change this year?

Zephyr waited for his turn patiently, regarding the obelisk with interest.
Hmmm...
Why's he thinking about mangoes and bananas?

"Ah, how lovely!" the Wildclaw croons. "For a moment, I thought you were a spirit or elemental; you have such mastery over Wind magic! I wish I could walk on air as you do..." And she laughs gently. "But that's not something Shadow-born dragons like myself can do, not without years of study and learning.
"Oh, for me? Thank you! I would be happy to share these gifts with my clanmates as well!"

A flurry of excited whoops and yells from the highest fringes of the Cloudsong draws startled gazes from some of the gathered crowd - followed quickly by fond chuckles. Delphi, wings bedecked in finery to fit the celebratory occasion, can be seen swooping and snaking around the giant kites and balloons, at speeds unexpected from such a massive dragon.
But it's not Delphi's breakneck dance that's attracting all the looks and laughter. No, it's the train of little hatchlings holding on to the imperial's mane for dear life! (Fret not, parents, they are safely strapped to his back as well.) Their giggles and screams echo, alternately growing louder and softer as he winds under and above the Cloudsong formation - and even occasionally dips closer to the outskirts of the Twisting Crescendo for an extra burst of speed.
As the dizzy hatchlings are deposited back on the platform, Delphi turns to an eagerly gathered throng of wide-eyed hatchlings. "Alright, who's next!" he grins.

"Again, again!" cries Yunle, already strapped into Delphi's back. As the newest addition to Delphi's own clan, he claims a soft spot in Delphi's heart by default.
"Alright, kiddo," Delphi laughs, looking over his back to where Yunle is seated right between Delphi's shoulder blades. "It's already your third ride, but I'm happy to scramble your brains even more!"
Yunle giggles, bouncing with excitement - and impatience! Why are the other hatchlings taking so long to get strapped in! - where he sits. [i]Best. Day. Ever.[/i]

It's only been recently that Patty has taken on her...their? new form, and she's still getting used to the extra sensory input and limbs. But now she's coordinated enough to glide, at least. So now she's returned to the land of her birth, to do her best to dance with herself through the clouds, singing in harmony with her two new heads.

Traversing across the Plateau and seeing all the finery and wilks, Waverly feels...rather horribly underdressed, really. Just having returned from touring other flights, she decided to dress—and travel!—light, hence her rather simple outfit. While practical, it perhaps wasn't the best option for a party!
She pushes the slight embarrassment to the back of her mind, however, when she spots an energetic spiral weaving an exciting tale to many eager listeners as well as a nice market area full of the best of Wind's artists and musicians. [i]Oh,[/i] she thinks, having completely forgotten about her state of undress, [i]what should I explore first?[/i][/center]

Byleth's amazement hasn't gotten any dimmer, it still blew as strong as the winds were this day. She still awaited her friend's arrival with great eagerness, but knowing Castille, she's probably made it to Cloudsong already and she's breezing around much like she did a few days prior. For an ice-born dragon, she was such an airhead, flying to every corner of the world along the breeze that carried her.
Byleth was brought out of her musing when she spotted an interesting dragon, a walking sun, flaring with confidence as he prances around, talking to various dragons.
[i]"Such flair, I should draw him too."[/i] Byleth thought to herself, picking up the charcoal stick from her bag.

Castille made it to a new area of the Cloudsong, trying to wiggle her way around the dancing Skydancers, she spotted a familiar green figure.
"Byleth !" She calls out to her friend. The said dragon turned around and spotted the smaller Imperial.
"About time you found me." Byleth chuckles. "I suppose you enjoyed the festivities too ? I thought you'd bring your girlfriend with you."
"Quite a bit actually, you wind folks are such good company, I almost went to dance with the Skydancers- Sheena would have loved to dance, sadly she's busy and couldn't come with me." Castille sighs, she will bring her a bunch of presents, of that she made the promise.
Looking over Byleth's canvas, she followed her line of sight until she spotted the marigold Obelisk. He was quite the sight, maybe she should go and befriend him.
