SAVE THE DATE! THE DATE FOR WHAT, YOU SAY?! FOR THE ULTIMATE BEAN WEDDING OF THE AGES!! (But what are you even SAYING, Faff?!) I’m saying Fawful and Jolligig are getting married! AND YOU ARE INVITED! But TECHNICALLY you're not actually coming to the wedding itself.. what YOU will be arriving to is a freaking awesome reception on Plack Beach! (Yep, I'm talking about a good old fashioned beach party!)
WHEN: July 22nd, 2024!
TIME: 4PM EST!
LOCATION: An entirely new discord server that you can join and celebrate in for 2-3 hours! I plan to stream art, goof off, and tell a bunch of REALLY bad jokes for you to enjoy (or cringe) at! Please note that the server will only exist temporarily for the purpose of the event and will close after it's ended. It will be open to the public and I'll post the link on my tumblr as well as here before it begins.
WHAT WILL BE GOING ON: In addition to this just being a fun hangout in order for me to meet more of y'all that I may not have had the honor of speaking to prior, I have MULTIPLE friends who've signed up to make various activities happen! Around 2-3 have volunteered to do art request streams and the extremely talented Sean Hicks (@seanhicksart on twitter + tumblr!) will be showing off a preview of his upcoming Fawful SSBU mod!! He'll be doing a stream and voicecall to show you guys what goes into creating (the sometimes meticulously detailed!) characters in 3D.
HOW TO BE INVOLVED: Since the reception takes place on the beach, you can participate by drawing your OC in beachwear to fit the setting (and their personality!) There will be a designated channel in the server specifically for sharing this art when you arrive, but you may also post it on social media under the hashtag #BeanParty2024
Keep in mind.. this is ENTIRELY OPTIONAL... you do not need to draw anything or have an OC to attend the event! It's just a bonus activity for anyone who may be interested!
Q. What if I don't have a Mario OC?
A. Your OC can be from any existing media or your own headworld! They do not need to be exclusive to Mario in order to attend! Have fun, go nuts!! I'm honored to see you guys in general!! Why would I limit the guestlist? Hehe.
Q. Can I draw something else for the wedding?
A. I've been asked this one a couple times and the answer is YES YES YES YES AND MORE YES!! Y'all don't understand how appreciative I am of any giftart... you are free to draw absolutely anything relating to Fawful and Jolligig and/or their wedding/reception... either way, it's up to you! Just make sure to use the same hashtag to post whatever you end up creating (#BeanParty2024)! I don't want to miss a single thing!
Q. What does this event mean to you? What is this all about, anyway?
A. To be transparent, underneath it all is a celebration of my undying love for Fawful. I feel like I've reached a point in my life where I'm ready to truly commit to this being forever, if that makes any sense, so this is my way of turning that into something fun that more than just I can enjoy but also my friends (and anyone else who wants to celebrate with me!) Maybe it's all a little frivolous in the eyes of some and that's fine... but this means a heck of a lot to me and it wouldn't feel right if didn't make a big ol' shabang out of it, lmfao.
Q. Hi!
A. HI LMFAO <3
