Cosplay: Dreams in Harmony

Goh: Hey, something going on today.

Me: Yup, it's a festival. Actually, it seems it's a little more than that, but that's for later.

Ash: The title is really neat! 

Goh: "Dreams in Harmony", huh. Makes me think of the Munna family. 

Ash: Oh, right! They're the dream time Pokémon.

Pikachu: Pika pi-ka! ["Very dreamy!"]

Me: That's a very good point. Another good point is where it's being held.

Ash: The creative center!

Goh: Well, I suppose the people holding it must be really creative. 

Ash: Yeah! After I signed in to get in, it was all about art.

Me: So, there you go. It's an art exhibition with a little festival. 

Goh: Like that one time that Ash didn't get in.

Me: But not this time.

Ash: Everything was so neat! Someone told me I could vote for one that I liked with a flower, and I did.

Pikachu: Pika chu. ["Nice work."]

Goh: What else was there besides art?

Ash: A few communities - a local game maker was there and I tried one of their games. I think our friend might just like that one. It's just click and go.

Me: I'm sure I will. Hey, um... by any chance, was this on the floor with the two big rooms?

Ash: Yeah, with the little food stands and all. They did get a little blocked off.

Goh: Either the people holding it will have to compensate, or the visitors bought enough.

Ash: Could be both. I met a lot of our friend's friends.

Goh: And I'm sure there were way more beyond that.

Ash: Sure!

Pikachu: Pika pika! ["Always the case!"]

Me: Also, just prior to this happening, I sent Ash to get spiffed up a bit.

Ash: It was to get my hair done for you! And for me too, to look more the part.

Goh: Oh, that's different. I don't recall our friend doing this before for you.

Me: Actually, I did this once before, but not when Ash was around.

Goh: Oh, I see. Got it.

Ash: He's an interesting one too. Hey, now we have something else in common.

Goh: I guess you'll now try to be in whatever competition this has.

Ash: There's a character parade!

Pikachu: Pi pika! ["Perfect!"]

Goh: But I'll bet others wanted in on this too - and that there weren't many prizes to go around.

Ash: Yeah. I talked with a good friend of our friend's about that... and we could predict two out of three winners right away - but then that friend also won.

Goh: Hmm. That happens.

Me: Well, at least we gave this one a try somehow.

Ash: Yup. I just did what I could.

Goh: What about other things on stage?

Ash: Just a couple of dance groups and a dance-off. Not much for five hours.

Goh: That's not much in any case.

Pikachu: Pika chu... ["Not much..."]

Me: But there was a lot of art to be explored at the exhibition.

Ash: You bet! They all had one of four things as their theme, and when you bring them together, you get this exhibition.

Goh: That's a pretty neat concept - even if it seems like characters were brought in just to make it lively, which I can see for this one by how it went.

Ash: I think Munna would love it! All the people and all the art could be so inspiring for everyone - even the Pokémon.

Goh: That would explain the "harmony", then. I'm right there with you.

Me: Sometimes it takes something like this to see how that could be.
