A new Friday, a new change of scenery. Tamsin had hoped for somewhere else that stocked booze, but thankfully, she'd had the foresight of getting a whole bunch of it from the Restaurant before they moved this morning.

It was Friday evening, and Mobius's sun hung low in the sky, but it was warm, and there were birds chirping as they flew past Fandom's dome. Perfect atmosphere or whatever. There were large, glittery umbrellas dotting the sand for effect, a bunch of chairs and tables arranged just a few feet away from the sandy parts of the beach, and a few grills were cooking away meat and veggies for the incoming guests.

Fandom beach party. This would definitely end well.

Kanan hadn't gotten himself half as drunk as he had intended to, last night. As fate would have it, there weren't exactly many similarities between the credits that he generally used to pay for things with, and the almighty American dollar. Not enough to pass muster when he wanted to be drunk enough to not think too hard about the day that had gone before, at least. So he'd made his way back to the Expedient, had scavenged around a bit, and had made do with the single bottle of ferment that Okadiah hadn't already quality-tasted to emptiness.

And then he'd gone to sleep, there in the cockpit. Because he hadn't taken enough time to go through the papers he'd been handed yesterday. The ones that gave him directions to the apartment that he already, somehow, had lined up waiting for him upon his arrival. Those he found that morning, which had led to a few rude words as he tried to stretch a few kinks out of his back, and a brief jaunt downstairs from the roof he'd parked on in order to check on the state of affairs in what was apparently his new apartment.

... Needed a bit in the way of amenities. But he'd slept on worse floors in his life, so he'd cope.

Today's goal, such as it was, was at least somewhat more productive than his 'drink to forget' strategy, last night. Today, he was going to get himself acquainted enough with this place to figure out where he could get his credits changed into the local currency. Because Okadiah's alcohol reserves had been great, but Kanan hadn't eaten since yesterday at the picnic, and that was something he was going to want to change, soon.

As it stood, he'd passed by plenty of restaurants, most of which were giving off smells that were mouthwatering in spite of the fact that he couldn't quite place them, and he still hadn't found the bank. So. This was going well.

The cook and the dishwasher were arguing extremely loudly about last night's halftime show. Apparently, the dishwasher had said something disparaging about Coldplay with the cook had taken very personally.

Behind them, the busboy was quietly decorating the kitchen and dining room in red lanterns and monkeys. Eliot gave him an approving nod -- until he spotted the fireworks.

"Not inside."

"But --"

"Not. Inside."

The busboy pouted, but moved the fireworks out into the alley.

Over by the front door was a sign reading:

Caritas Presents:
3 MINUTE DATES


Earlier in the evening there was general milling about and Tino serving drinks and such, but then, just before 8, music swelled.

I accidentally wrote an intro song for Frank to sing oops. )

"Now hit the gong, I'll be at the bar!"

A gong sounded - just as it would at the end of all rounds - as Frank left the stage with two empty glasses in his place.

[The Bar Before the Dates | Round 1 | Round 2 | Round 3 | Round 4 | Round 5 | OOC]
[Regular post-dates Caritas post]

[OOC: Three minutes = ten comments total, five per person. You don't need to do your threads chronologically, but try not to Joss yourself. Any dates where Randy the RNG Love Potioned you has an asterisk (*) next to your name in the subject line. Everyone who opted in has TWO RNGed Love Potion Rounds, but ALL PEOPLE are welcome to use the love potion in more rounds if they would like, whether you asked for love potion in the signups or not.

Starting the OCD! HAVE AT IT.

If I made a blatant mistake, like skipping a character completely for a round or posting a pairing twice, feel free to grab me on AIM or in the OOC thread and I'll make a quick fix.

Also remember that most playing should happen on Saturday, but if you need to finish things up on Sunday, that's fine.

A regular post-dates Caritas post will go up Saturday afternoon sometime.]

Sometimes, the days were shit.

Bellamy had stopped counting how long he'd been stuck on this island. He didn't want to think about how many days Octavia had possibly been with the Grounders. The longer she was with them, the less likely she'd live. He didn't think Finn and his delicate sensibilities would do a damn thing to get his sister back. He'd slink back to the camp and cry over Clarke. Worthless.

There was a bottle in Bellamy's hand and he sipped from it slowly, letting the liquor burn his lungs and warm him up from the inside. Booze hadn't been available on their Earth. He was sure Monty or Jasper could probably get something to together but there hadn't been any time.

Here, he'd just walked into the store behind him, produced some money and now he had alcohol and a buzz going. He didn't want to go back to the woods and sleep. He didn't want to be here at all. But, he was stuck.

And it sucked.

[Open, sure.]

So, there was an alien ship over the island. Which was as good a reason for Washington to be back in his armor as anything would ever be.

It was also a good reason for him to be well armed as he eyed the ship. The ship that was just hanging out there.

Wow, this was so much less exciting than it had started out.

The great thing about AI? They were more than happy to do inventory work for you while you sat back with the latest edition of People. Delta didn't mind York's laziness in this case; he always seemed to mess up his extensive system anyway.

Spoilers for The 100 1x06 )

Bellamy whipped around, expecting to see Finn behind him, ready with a lecture on being more careful but there was nothing. He was alone. Alone and in a completely different place. There weren't any trees surrounding him, no dirt beneath his boots. He still had his gun and he raised it defensively, not sure what the hell kind of trick this was.

Bellamy knew there were parts of Earth they hadn't yet explored but this was impossible. There were buildings in the distance, well kept and bright. They looked lived in. It was hotter here than it had been just a minute ago and Bellamy felt perspiration slide into his eyes.

A noise caught his attention and Bellamy turned, eyes settling on the ocean nearby. He'd heard about these on the Ark, even seen the massive blue masses from space but to be this close to one? Impossible. There was no way.

Where the hell was he?

[ Open, of course. Bellamy's on the boardwalk, confused as hell and holding a gun. Please note: he most likely won't give the gun up but he does know how to handle it and might take you as a threat at first. He's not going to shoot anyone. ]

Life worked in weird ways. In no way did York know how he got from being a super soldier to a small time burglar to the owner of a gun store but here he was. He stood outside the Freedom Arms with a lone suitcase by his side, looking up at the joint.

"What do you think, D?" he asked.

A miniature armored AI appeared by York's shoulder. "I do not detect any danger so far but we have not yet entered the building."

York sighed. "I just meant in general but, sure, thanks for the update."

[So York is officially on the island and the Freedom Arms will open up sometime next week! Feel free to say hi and you can refer to this info post if you'd like more info on him and his AI Delta beforehand. Also please join my amusement at a Freelancer owning the Gulch again]

Eliot had never been quite so happy to be hungover. Well, okay. Not so much happy about the hangover part. But the stuff that had led to this hangover? Parker had very enthusiastically shown Eliot and Hardison that being women could be pretty awesome, yesterday. And last night. And into the early morning. The process had involved not a little bit of liquor. Especially to get Eliot into a miniskirt.

Which he was not wearing in public, thank you very much. He was, in fact, dressed basically like he normally would be, only with the addition of a sports bra. And with his button down left open over his undershirt, because apparently shirts hadn't yet been invented that didn't gape over breasts any bigger than Parker's. He'd skipped the belt, since letting his pants hang on his hips instead of his waist made them actually long enough, and the pair of flipflops Parker had picked up finished off the whole weird sexy-schlub ensemble.

He knew it was sexy because the baristas kept flirting him. He ordered his usual coffee and tried to remember which ones of them were usually men.

Eliot had a complicated relationship with Memorial Day. Especially when it started with both Vance and Shelley calling to wish him a happy one. With Shelley Eliot had long since learned to just tune him out when he got all "God bless America I'm married to my country" on him, but Vance always tried to turn things into a recruitment drive. As much fun as he and Vance had disrupting Pakistan's nuclear weapons program a few years ago, there was no way Eliot could handle working for the guy full time again.

Besides, he already had a job. Several, in fact.

So Luke's was not decorated in red, white, and blue bunting, today (though you could still see some tufts of the stuff still taped to the walls). Nor were the specials particularly festive (well, other than being picnic/cookout staples, anyway). There were a few fliers posted about veterans' assistance funds, but otherwise, it was a normal day at Luke's.

"Happy Mem--"

"You shut your goddamn mouth, Cookie!"

See? Totally normal.

Much like the last time this event had taken place, it would appear to anyone who came to the community center tonight that whoever had been responsible for decorating for the reunion mixer actually had some taste. The decorations were simple - blue linen on the tables with gold flowers as centerpieces, and a notable lack of any tacky accoutrements - but there was, of course, gold and blue glitter scattered just about everywhere.

Don't tell us you hadn't missed it, old Fandomites.

With the new semester and new people on island, and also a holiday that just so happened to fall on Kitty's shift, those were as good excuses as any for a party. Plus they got to do so with margaritas and nachos, and who didn't like margaritas and nachos?

Tino was at the bar if anyone just wanted to hang out there, but the back room was where the people were. Hopefully. Shut up, Kitty totally still didn't get paranoid no one would show up, really.
