PARTY!, An Abandoned Warehouse in the Abandoned Warehouse District, Wednesday Night

[rebelseekspizza]

The warehouse Ringo had picked out really was the best one of the lot: everything was intact and reasonably clean, just empty. The ground floor had a huge empty area that Dante had immediately claimed as the site of their party. Between him (and okay fine, his StuCo experience) and Ringo, they'd gotten a sound system set up and repurposed a minifridge or two for drinks. Dante was a little sketchy on where they'd gotten the cooler from, but between those three things and the stuff that didn't need to be cold, he figured they were full up on booze and soda.

He'd dragged Ada in to pretty up the place: glitter and shiny lights and all that stuff. (There was even a big, glittery WELCOME BACK sign now.)

Ringo had sent around the invites. Dante had finally let Anders know there was a party in his name that afternoon.

All set.

[[ ANDERS' WELCOME BACK PARTY. If you think Ringo got you an invite, you did. If you think your character heard about the party through the grapevine, they did. wait for the ocd is up! up early 'cause party, la. ]]

Show up. Admire all the sparklies.

Since he'd missed the welcome picnic, this was Hyacinthe's first real social gathering. As such, he'd dressed for the occasion in his Prince of Travelers finest. If he'd known everyone a little better, he might have worn his bright vest without the underlying shirt, but there was always later in the evening for that.

He was a bit taken aback by the glittery sign and the loud thumping of the music. The fiddles and fifes and drums of Night's Doorstep had nothing on this. But he was nothing if not flexible--dirty--and more than willing to take whatever the night threw at him.

...Definitely dirty.

"Hey, Hyacinthe," Dante called, once he had a spare moment to swing by, bottle in hand. "Welcome. You wanna drink?"

He lifted the bottle. (It was vodka.)

Roscoe had already gone through a drink and a half by the time he spotted Hyacinthe. "Hey, roommie," he said, setting a hand on Hyacinthe's shoulder if he'd let him. (Drinking made him handsy and friendly.) "What do you think about adding some glitter to our living quarters?"

"Hi," Anders said, looking the young man up and down. There was something Antivan about his appearance, and something hungry in his eyes.

Anders appreciated it.

"I'm Anders," he said. "The cause of all this fuss."

"Hyacinthe!" Ada called, weaving her way through people until she was next to him. "Ain't you a pretty sight!"

Re: Arrive/Mingle

"Hey! Hyacinth, right?" Ringo grinned broadly when she spotted him. "Nice outfit!" For her part, Ringo was wearing one of the dresses Kathy had helped her find last year. Which, to be fair, was most of Ringo's dresses at this point.

Xanthippe wasn't even sure where she'd heard about this party from. What she was sure of was that she was bored, and that yesterday's class had left her feeling homesick, so she needed a distraction.

So her hair was curled to perfection and she had a little black dress on. She could give this social thing a whirl.

Or just look at the decorations quietly and wonder what this island's whole deal with glitter was.

Re: Arrive/Mingle

[rebelseekspizza]

"Hey there," Dante called. Had he spoken to her before? If so, he could barely remember. Whatever. She was getting greeted anyway. "Welcome to the party. You know Anders?"

Not that it mattered if she did, exactly.

"I don't know you, but you have great hair!" Roscoe exclaimed over the music. "I'm Roscoe."

Isabela was there, and she'd brought drinks like she'd told Dante she would. The good stuff too.

RE: Arrive/Mingle

[thewrathofkaan]

As it turned out, the outfit Roscoe had picked out for class also turned out to be perfect for the warehouse party he randomly heard about. Tight booty shorts, tight mesh shirt, gold nail polish. He was crushing the warehouse party aesthetic, if he might say so himself.

Anyway. Vodka soda in one hand, phone in the other (for selfies). It had been too long since he'd been to a good party.

Re: Arrive/Mingle

Of course Ada was there. She was just happy Dante had his Squishy back the decorator, after all!

She'd also brought her last two jugs of carnie gin, and dumped one of them into a bowl of punch. Sharing was caring, right?

Party underway, she was wandering around, a cup of gin-punch in her hand, decked out in glitter, a tank-top and mini-skirt, and more glitter. It was a party!

Merrill had actually intended to be here! But the act of arriving here -- that had been half accidental.

". . . oooh, it's very shiny."

Re: Arrive/Mingle

[kenselvren]

Jalian had seen the invitations and...well, she had only vaguely been aware that Anders was gone, but she did like the boy, so she would show up to welcome him back!

...it was very sparkly here. She was already chalky-white skinned and wearing white; she was going to end up blinding if the glitter didn't stop attacking.

Drinks!

[rebelseekspizza]

No food at this one, but there's certainly a lot of moddable drinks, both alcoholic and non. Dante has mostly tried to keep his strawberry booze to himself, but there's probably a bunch of that in there...

Shadowy Corners

[rebelseekspizza]

It's the inside of an abandoned warehouse. Of course there are shadows.

Dance!

[rebelseekspizza]

It's Dante controlling the sound system, so expect a mixture of thumping EDM, guitars, and thumping EDM with guitars, but he's trying not to let it go too loud.

RE: Dance!

[thewrathofkaan]

Roscoe had spent the past year becoming a star of the LA teen krumping scene, so... prepare to be impressed. Or just jump in, and be entertained.

Talk to the Hosts

[rebelseekspizza]

If you haven't caught them anywhere else.

Re: Talk to the Hosts

[rebelseekspizza]

Dante was wandering around a lot, perpetually with a drink in his hand. Parties were good, yo.

Re: Talk to the Hosts

[soniaroadsqueen]

Ringo was there totally on time and without her computer's graphics card melting down necessitating hours of work to get things up and running again on a spare looking excited to have a party going on. Because parties were awesome!

Talk to Anders

[rebelseekspizza]

When he pings in. He is the star of the party, of course.

Re: Talk to Anders

[not_every_mage]

Anders was grateful for the party, but there were moments when being the center of attention was just too much after two months mostly alone. He retreated to the corners to catch his breath, drink firmly gripped.

OOC!
