Not only was the goddess of space late on the festivities, it seems as though she has also mistaken miniature sharks for goldfish! Help Hoshigumo scoop out all of the sharks before they eat the rest of the fish!
Roll (4) 4 sided dice. The object of the game is to get at least three matching numbers. Example: 1, 4, 4, 4
Every time you get three matching numbers, your pockettu's catch will be successful and you will get to pick out a prize.
Every time you get two matching numbers, your net will break. You will have a cooldown of 10 minutes before being able to roll again. If you break your net three times, you will be forced to pay a small fine to replace it, but you will also receive a booby prize.
Everyone will be required to post one introduction post in roleplay prompt for the game booth. Have your Pockettu that is attending the festival approach the game booths, have them mingle with others-- or curse at their bad luck-- "darn those nets!"
If your introduction post is at least five sentences, you will receive tickets! Tickets can be redeemed for pockettu at the prize center.
Palantiriel figured he may as well give this festival thing a go. He had offered his services if anyone required some goods or wares yet no bites yet. When he walked past one both he saw something very strange among the goldfish... ...Baby sharks? "Uh oh, that's bad business right there..." He frowned and quickly grabbed a net. "Let's see.." He looked at the sharks swimming about and dipped his net in, hoping one would swim right into it.
Well, that wasn't what Palantiriel was expecting. The shark swam right through his net, snapping it. He quickly pulled the net out and inspected the damage. "Huh..." He frowned and pulled some twine out of one of the pockets on his belt. When the net was retied he waited a bit, watching the motions of the sharks and fish. "Hm..." When he believed the timing was right he scooped the net into the water with haste.
Irene was cheerful as can be as she walked to the site of Hoshi's festival site. She smiled brightly at everyone she passed, she hoped she would be able to meet some other pockettu and gods during the festival. She caught site of the shark scoop and giggled, what an amusing game she thought to herself. She grabbed the net to try her hand at the game to remove the sharks before they ate the little fish. She looked at the cute blue shark with the star on it's side and smiled hoping she would be able to catch that one. She thought he was very cute and want to take him home to her island. Irene giggled happily as she caught on of the sharks on the first try, she held the snapping happy little shark out to the booth attendant. "Do you have a bowl or bag I can put him in, I can take him home right??" She asked hopeful.
Palan noted someone walking up to try out the game. The lady was rather lucky and managed to snag one on the first try. He smiled a bit and congratulated her while he fixed his net yet again. Luck wasn't on his side or so it seemed. Then again, when was it? He smirked a bit in his own amusement before testing the net to make sure his knots were strong enough. Once he deemed the net worthy once more he eyed the sharks and tried to fish one out.

Irene smiled at the colorful creature and said "Thank you, it was rather a stroke of luck, but perhaps being a goddess gives me an unfair boost" she laughed and then watched the boy continue to catch a shark. She didn't want to say much as she watch, so she didn't distract him.
Behelf found the small bit of commotion by some booth to be attention catching. He approached the sight of another pockettu and a giant girl standing there talking. When he came close enough his single red eye widened. "Smile fishies!" He crowed in delight at the little miniature sharks swimming around in the tank. His own lips cracked into a wide and, ironically, very shark like grin. Flashing the sharp points of his teeth, Behelf began to clap his hands in delight while his tentacle tail wriggled and squirmed behind him in his simple happiness. When his moment of excitement passed he noticed then that Palan held a small net. He looked around the booth to see several others set aside. "Ooooh!" He hummed as he reached out with a red hand to pick the net up. Behelf spun it around in the air, then with a childish lack of grace, he dipped it in the water and swooshed it up as fast as he could at the nearest 'Smile Fish'.
As soon as Kardia heard that the festivities were open, he eagerly made his way over to the festival. As he floated past, he saw other joyful Pockettu mingling and even lining up for a game that was set up. Intrigued, Kardia patiently watched and waited to see how this game was played. Glancing back at the little sharks, he cautiously picked up a net, and dipped it into the water, wondering if he would find some luck.
Kardia beamed as he pulled up his net, gently gazing down at the beautiful blue shark striped with pink and yellow. "Greetings little one! It seems you shall come with me today!" He glanced up at the booth attendant and spoke in his soft voice. "I will take this little shark in whatever way it will be most comfortable." He was mesmerized by the glimmering pattern on the shark in his net, and was delighted to have a new friend.
Palan was not having much luck. He sighed and rummaged through his pockets and bags. Finally finding some form of currency he knew acceptable on this planet he placed it down for the runner of the game to take. "One more shot, eh?" He grinned as he was given a new net.
He politely gave the Goddess some of his attention before he would start again. "It could... Or maybe Lady Luck favors you more than me?" He chuckled and soon glanced at the others that joined them. Another wasn't having much luck and it seems yet another won. He cheered for the new winner, congratulating them as well, before returning his full attention to the sharks before him.
Three more tries, three more tries and that's it. He smiled and focused, going after one of the sharks with the net.
