EVENT LOG PT. 1: Dueling Festivals
Who: Everyone!
What: EPCOT's Dream Festival and Plankton's Plankton Festival.
Where: EPCOT!
When: May 18th to May 25th.
Warnings: Plankton.
(Imageworks.)
The Dream Festival is held at EPCOT's Imagination Pavilion, largely held upstairs. The downstairs area is is dedicated to the ride itself - a ten-minute look at the wonder and joy of Imagineering, while the theater next door is some sort of documentary about a figure named Captain EO. But the real excitement upstairs, is in the newly revamped Imageworks Pavillion - The Junior Imagination Station.
Billed as an escape to worlds that were, that could be, and those of fantasy and reality, the Imageworks is designed to get people interested in Imagineering, and as such, is filled with exhibits designed to boggle the mind. This includes the Rainbow Corridor, a tunnel featuring colored lights that assigns each guest a color that follows them as they move through it, among other things. A giant wall-mounted coloring book that gets filled in with electric "paintbrush guns", a series of floor panels that can be stepped on and make sounds, a giant pin screen, you name it.

(Dreamscape Room.)
One of the more ambitious new add-ons to the pavilion is the Dreamscape Room, a room that is set up to configure to one specific person's desire. Whoever's in control of the Dreamscape Room at the moment (each visitor has a time of five minutes within the Dreamscape Room before it's passed on to the next person) is able to shape and form a new world within the room, one that will disappear as soon as they leave. This is displayed in photorealistic light and sound, allowing for you to bring anything from your imagination right in front of you.
DIII.
(With apologies to Cosmographia.)
Just outside of the Imagination Pavillion is a garden - series of colorful flowers and a Figment topiary. It's not explicitly advertised as being part of the exhibit, but there are a rainbow of flowers here, and they seem to be just as much a part of the festival as anything else. For, you see, picking a flower will make you feel a certain emotion for up to an hour, or until another flower is picked. This will depend on the color of the flower chosen. Below is a list of all the different ones!

How will you use your time? Bringing to life a new creation, or perhaps showcasing your home world to others? Living out an old fantasy - a memory? You have a small amount of time here, and you should make the best of it.

PLANKTON FESTIVAL
PI.
(Trashfire.)
Meanwhile, directly across from the Imageworks Pavillion, this shit is happening I guess?
The primary attraction of the Plankton Festival is a statue of Plankton made out of what appears to be popsicle sticks. Surrounding this is a foodcart selling lukewarm chum on a stick, terrible yellow balloons that feature a cartoon eye (+the above horrifying balloon animals, a stall selling Chum Bucket Bucket Helmets, and a throne set up for Plankton himself. Much like Santa Claus, you can get a picture of him sitting in a throne with you either standing incredibly far away from him or being directly on top of him.
There's also literally a garbage can that's on fire. This is considered the highlight of the festival by many.

At some point, it is decided that the festival needs a new attraction. So, they bring it in:

no subject
Me-muhmi, meep mi muhminimuh meep-mi-meep mini muh meep meneemuh mii-eep meemuhme. Muhnuh meep muh mee.
[He knows, but policy is policy and he doesn't want to get on Plankton's bad side. it's been a long enough day as it is.
Still, Beaker very clearly doesn't want to have to do this... Star can try pressing him further, if she likes.]
no subject
[Look. Look at those big sparkly eyes. Can you say 'no' to that?]
no subject
no subject
[SPARKLE SPARKLE]
no subject
Beaker has a choice to make. Either follow Plankton's orders and risk upsetting this kid, or: don't be a buzzkill, but risk Plankton's wrath.
...
He only hesitates for a moment longer, glancing around to check if Plankton is anywhere nearby. He pulls out a notebook, marking something down and erasing a previous entry in the logs.
Star has another hour of ballpit time, if she wishes to use it.
With that done, Beaker sits down on the floor beside the pit.]
no subject
[She watches him sit down next to the pit, so she pats the balls with one hand.] Room for one more~!
no subject
Oh! He shakes his head, still half hidden by his shirt.]
Mee-muhmeep mimuhmee-muh minimuh...
[He doesn't like ballpits much...
it definitely has nothing to do with the fact that his eyes and nose are shaped exactly like these balls and if they were to pop up he might lose them forever. which is a perfectly normal fear for a muppet to have.But you have fun, Star. He'll just. Sit here. If you have anything you might want to ask him, this is a good time.]
no subject
How'd you get roped into working this joint, anyway?
no subject
Mi mimuh-meep mimuh meep mi-mimi. Meep muhmeepmuhmee muh-mee-mi minuh-mimuhmeep mi muh-muh. Mi-meep muh meep mi-mimimi.
[It's all because Plankton thinks he's his "henchman." And he keeps pushing more and more ridiculous things on him to do. Even if it puts him in danger.]
As he says this, he gestures towards a nearby lifesize cardboard cutout of Plankton. He keeps speaking, and even if Star isn't too great at translating meepspeak yet, she can probably parse out the fact that Beaker is referring to Plankton in Less Than Kind Terms, and that he feels. Well. Trapped?
Trapped. Trapped with another boss that keeps nearly killing him through misunderstandings and idiocy, but this time he's working for an obvious villain and also he's not endearing like Bunsen is, and Beaker's not kind of definitely in love with him, which definitely made Bunsen's antics more tolerable.]
