Kanan's warehouse- Saturday night

[seriesofbaddecisions]

What had started as a simple holiday party had kind of... evolved. There'd been impromptu warehouse decorating, and then as long as they were doing that already, why not just hold the party here? There were crates wrapped up like presents and lights and tinsel, and maybe glitter on the floor. (Sorry, everyone, you were taking some of the party home with you!) There was also a tree, with a table and chairs that Sabine had dragged over from her own, far less party-suitable warehouse so that people could make ornaments to put on it if they wanted. It was all very festive, considering anyone involved in the running of this whole show had never celebrated any of this holiday stuff before.

There was also the occasional caped chicken. Sabine and Nina had nothing to do with that.

And towards the end of setting up, it occurred to Sabine that she probably could have just asked Kanan to have the party here yesterday and he might've said yes. In her defense, she was very out of practice in asking for permission, and this was all going to be fine anyway.

Happy holidays!

Because if you're invited to a party in a teacher's warehouse, you obviously show up, right?

Breq figured that if Kanan really didn't want students to have a party in his warehouse, he would make sure it didn't happen. As it was happening, she showed up, looking around to see who else was there.

"Hey there," Sabine greeted her. "Thanks for coming."

"Welcome, welcome!!!!!!!!!!!! Want, like, anything to drink????????????" Nina greeted cheerfully.

Astrid was honestly just glad the party happened before she left for California; she would have hated to have missed it, for a multitude of reasons. Just the fact that she was going to a holiday party was enough in itself, but one also co-held by her roommate, who didn't even know anything about the holidays...

So of course she was here, and, considering she was leaving to the land of No Christmas in a couple of days, she was making the most out of it while she could, festively decked in the appropriate colors with a little garland crown wrapped around her head and weaved into a long braid.

If she looked silly, well...she wasn't going to see any of them for two weeks. Possibly never again. So it didn't really bother her.

"I like the look," Sabine told her.

"Are flowers traditional, too?" Lana asked. "That looks lovely."

Re: Arrive/mingle

"Oh my gosh!!!! Hi!!!!!!!!!! Like, your hair is adorable!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Sorry, Astrid, for the enthusiasm being flung in your direction.

"How did you weave it into your braid???????"

If Vette was being terribly honest, she was mostly just here because the idea of wandering into some other world's holiday celebration appealed to her... like... a lot. From a purely curious cultural standpoint, mostly.

... And there was eggnog. She was also here for the eggnog. But she was here all the same.

Re: Arrive/mingle

"So we don't seem to be in trouble," Sabine said, optimistically.

So far.

If anyone was surprised that Sidon made it a point to seek out Vette at the earliest convenience...well, then, he was certainly glad they finally managed to make it out from underneath that rock they'd been living in to come to the party.

"Vette!" He'd nearly jogged over to her once she was spotted, grinning broadly as he went to greet her. "Hello! How are you this wonderful evening? Spectacular, I should hope?"

The question on end was more a promise than anything else, that if the answer was anything less than spectacular, then he would make it his goal for the night to make sure that was fixed.

"If we get in trouble," Nina said, sidling up to Vette, "I vote we, like, blame Sabine and run!!!!!!!!!"

She was kidding! Mostly!

This was possibly the first party Norman had been invited to in his life, Summer's catch-all events notwithstanding. Of course he was going to show.

Kind of tentatively. Maybe he was braced to find himself a corner to hang out in quietly. That was like partying, right?

Re: Arrive/mingle

[justice_undone]

"Norman!" Breq made sure to smile as she approached him. "You're ok?"

Re: Arrive/mingle

[bookbeltof_love]

"Oh!!!!"

Huh. Small geeky boy had come.

"Hey, thanks for coming!!!!!!!"

That was much politer than the 'oh, it's you' that ran through her head, because you just didn't say those things, when you were a host.

Re: Arrive/mingle

See Kanan. See Kanan feel inexplicably antsy, and think maybe he could work off some of that excess energy with a few lightsaber forms.

See Kanan take two steps into his warehouse. Sigh. And then turn around and walk right back out again.

Nope.

Yeah, Prompto wasn't missing this thing for anything.

"OOooooh," he gushed, "I love what you've done to the place!"

Of course, he didn't know what the place looked like before, but he had a sneaking suspicion it wasn't quite...this.

Re: Arrive/mingle

[unusual_sith]

Lana was interested to see what this would be like, and a party sounded fun anyway, so here she was.

Grinning at Sabine. "Are you one of the ones to thank for the decor, then?"

Re: Arrive/mingle

[in_sidon_we_trust]

Although he'd never admit it, Sidon was rather pleased to hear that this event would be held in the nice, spacious warehouse rather than the common room, which, while not small by any means, still always felt a little cramped for him. And how could he not be positively delighted by the decorations as well? It was clear that they were in for a wonderfully festive evening!

...he did worry a little about the caped cuccos running around, though, being very careful to watch his step and not inadvertently tread on any of them. A flock of disgruntled cuccos was certainly nothing to cluck about!

Re: Arrive/mingle

[bookbeltof_love]

Nina wasn't so much an invitee as an instigator, but hey, she was still there!

And squinting at the chickens.

Food and drink!

[seriesofbaddecisions]

There are both! Mod your stuff.

Re: Food and drink!

[unusual_sith]

Lana had been enjoying the peppermint things lately, and was pleased to see actual (as opposed to formerly weapons-grade) candy canes around, and immediately unwrapped one and began sucking it to a point.

Tree!

[seriesofbaddecisions]

Make stuff with modded supplies, decorate, what have you.

Re: Tree!

[always_someone]

Norman wasn't really an artist, but folded paper and scissors could still make a mean snowflake, so that's where he ultimately set himself up, cutting out a few to put on the tree.
