Some time during the night, thick clouds envelop the moon, leaving the land around Milliways plunged in darkness.
When the clouds move on and the moon shines again, things have changed.
The once-bare-mountainsides and foothills are covered in grey-barked trees, thirty feet tall at most, the twigs of their branches studded with buds.
There are also some new trees near and at part of the lakeshore, with a little wooden pavillion surrounded by a grove of the new trees. The little Air Nomad temple now shares its island with some of these trees as well. Flagstone paths wind their way up the mountainsides with occasional clearings in places that will provide a good view. At intervals along the paths and around the clearings are stone Japanese lanterns with lights that begin to glow at sunset and dim out at sunrise.
Clouds of pink and white sparks swarm and swirl over surfaces in the bar and certain areas outside, leaving new decorations, furniture, and other things. Inside the bar, the rafters are now hung with pink streamers and banners depicting five-petaled cherry blossoms. On the walls are Chinese and Japanese scroll paintings and prints of cherry blossoms. Blossom-shaped tea pastries, cherry pies, pink lemonade, and special tea both hot and iced are available free to all - as are bowls of the fruit themselves, of course, both pitted and fresh on the stem. Outside, pink and red sitting cushions appear in the lakeside pavillion. The larger mountain clearings, especially the ones overlooking cliffs, now have picnic tables and Adirondack chairs.
By the time the sun clears the horizon the next day, the buds on the trees have opened, and by noon the cherry trees are blooming in various shades of pink and white. Sakura are not generally known for their scent, but where they grow in such numbers, one can detect something floral and sweet in the air when the breeze blows just the right way.

[OOC: The Cherry Blossom All-Skate is now open! This is also a timed event for "canonical" posts that extends through next weekend.
All your pups can enjoy the blossoms! Retired pups! Deleted pups! AU pups! Original characters! Whatever!
As usual:
1. Communication is key.
2. Gratuitous behaviour (either of a violent or sexual nature) will not be tolerated in the bar proper. Take that to an OOM, slap a content warning on it.
3. What happens in the All-Skate, stays in the All-Skates! Unless, that is, it happens between approved game characters and all muns agree.
4. Please don't be a dick.
5. You can ignore the theme if you want, but I hope you'll work it in!]
