Caritas, Saturday (6/7)

Did Padme know that she needed to go to work at a bar? No. No, she did not. But she did need a drink as she figured out how best to address her current situation and that somehow ended up being said bar.

And then the bartender there had taken one look at her and her over the top outfit and disappeared for five minutes before returning in a matching outfit.

How long had Tino had that just waiting? Why had Tino had that waiting? These were questions to ponder and never learn the true answers to because, well, Tino.

The park- Thursday afternoon

Why couldn't it be truth day? Truth day for Jaina wasn't any different from a normal day. Baggage day however meant that she was stuck looking at all the issues she repressed way deep inside in lieu of therapy.

She'd escaped the house because didn't need the kids seeing all of that, and if she was feeling really bitter she wasn't sure all the bags would fit. She was sure the "JACEN" bags were multiplying and following her around. She'd do lightsaber drills in the park for a while. She much preferred fighting against someone, but that felt like a bad idea, so this was fine.

Considering starting a bonfire here was also a bad idea, probably.

The park- Friday afternoon

Jaina had had a rough couple weeks, so it was sort of a good thing, personally, for a bunch of godzillas to invade a place where she could take those frustrations out on them. Sorry, godzillas! You picked the wrong day to pick a fight!

There were a few in the park, so she was staying local to there, dealing with one in particular that seemed annoyed enough that she was fighting back to keep it up. She might be kind of humoring it at this point. It was like catharsis. There were plenty more if anyone else wanted to take a crack at it!


[Open if you wanna fight a Godzilla in the park!]

Devil's Nest, Monday Night

Eric's pleased little smirk showed he was not at all sorry to be late to the bar tonight, but he wasn't the sort to kiss and tell. (Just kiss. And other things.)

He strolled over to his favorite seat in the lounge in his far-too-tight leather ants (you're welcome, Tiny), ordered a Screaming Orgasm, and waited.

It was his favorite week of the year.

The Devil's Nest, Monday evening

Cold and dark was Eric's native habitat, and so he'd brought that into the club today. The heat had been turned off to allow the bar he'd constructed entirely from ice to not melt immediately.

Tiny, behind said bar and wearing three hats, looked decidedly unhappy about the new change in theme.

Eric, drinking very cold vodka, did not care.

The Devil's Nest was open! Be careful on the slippery floor.

Homecoming Carnival, The Park, Friday Daytime

Hopefully, no one had partied themselves out completely yesterday, because it was time for Homecoming! The park had been decorated... well, it had started to be decorated in a comfortable fall theme because something had to be done with all the extra pumpkins people had, but then the pillow fort showed up, and there was lofi music coming from somewhere and, well, it wasn't a bad vibe, so here we were.

Enjoy your comfy carnival everyone!

The Devil's Nest, Monday Night

Eric came into the bar tonight to find Tiny in a black body suit and a jack-o-latern on his head, dancing. "It's not October until tomorrow," he said, sounding deeply tired.

The Devil's Nest was open. The bartender was jazzed about spooky seaoson. The vampire was drinking bourbon and trying to avoid making eye contact with whatever it was Tiny was doing now.

Rey's warehouse- Monday

Jaina had taken the whole weekend here, and she has time before her portal home tonight so she came to check out the warehouse. She'd been in here before. She'd provided supplies for it.

She wasn't expecting that the quicksand was the entry (she got over it fine) and took a good look around and said, "What the hell."

Her grandpa was a crazy person.


[Open, probably with SP because my brain is still in bed.]

Caritas, Saturday

Well, it was just one of those busy days in Fandom, it would seem. Because Jane arrived to the bar to find it had been decorated by Tino in a way that was almost, kinda cute? There were stars and planets and a sun. It was the sort one might find in a science classroom in grade school.

And Tino, of course, was wearing an astronaut helmet for reasons Jane didn't ask to know. Because Tino. Even the specials looked decent for once! Suspiciously so, honestly.

Homecoming Carnival, The Park, Saturday Daytime

Things were a little quieter as the carnival was being set up this morning, but after the last few days that was kind of a low bar. The weather was perfect for an autumn themed event - a little cool and crisp, but bright and sunny with no advertisements anywhere in sight. What more could anyone ask for?

Caritas, Saturday - After 3MD

Well, Tino was all set up, thinking he was going to get some numbers out of the dating event for reasons that Jane couldn't quite suss out.

So she was just going to be at her end of the bar to help out anyone who needed a drink. Tino could deal with the disappointment when people just wanted a drink and to be left alone over on his part of the bar.

Three Minute Dates- Caritas- Saturday until 8:15 pm

Caritas was decked out tonight for tonight's event with balloons and a giant glittery sign over the stage.

WELCOME TO
THREE MINUTE DATES!!


And a few minutes before 8:00, Kitty took the stage with the zombie band playing her on. As the music stopped, she began, "Welcome, everyone, to our semi-annual Three Minute Dates! If you're new to this, you've added your names to the list and when your name is called, you'll meet your first date and have three minutes to get to know them. Then when the buzzer sounds, it'll be on to your next date. Easy peasy! We've done things a little differently tonight, and gone through the painstaking process of picking some great matches for you all-"

It was then that Tino took it upon himself to come by to show off something like a miniature version of SNL's upcoming hosts board, with everyone's names attached in pairs. It was really a work of art.

And then he slipped on a patch of glitter and the names went flying everywhere.

One of the zombies played a sad "wah wah" sound.

For a moment Kitty just stared in horror, and then said, "Give us two minutes," and dashed off the stage.

Off to a great start!

Three Minute Dates!- Caritas- Saturday before 8:15 pm

Love was in the air! Well, not really. That was later. But metaphorically, love, air, etc!

Caritas was decked out for Valentine's Day, with bunches of heart-shaped balloons in strategic places, copious amounts of pink and red confetti at the tables (a conversation starter!) and heart-shaped string lights above the bar and stage. And don't forget the glittery pink banner:

TONIGHT!
THREE MINUTE DATES
IT'S LITERALLY ONLY FIFTEEN MINUTES OF YOUR LIFE


A few minutes before 8:00, Kitty took the stage. She was probably covered in glitter now. "Hello, everybody, and welcome to Three Minute Dates! If you've never done this before, the rules are simple. At 8:00 on the dot, we'll call your name along with one other person's. You'll get to know each other as well as you can in three minutes, and then the gong will sound and you'll get another name to meet. You'll do that for five rounds, and then if there's anyone you want to talk to more, you can meet up at the bar. Good luck, everybody!"

Pizza Planet, Friday

Raiden was hoping to get away from the restaurant for a bit to go find his brothers at the picnic (and eat picnic food), but he wanted to make sure everything was running smoothly first, because some of the visitors might want pizza. Comfort food was important after a shock to the system like some of them were going to get, after all.

The Devil's Nest, Monday, September 19, 2022

Eric should've been prepared for something weird today, but he'd forgotten about that fake pirate holiday until he walked into the bar from the back room and saw Tiny in pirate garb.

Well, at least the rum special made sense?

Not the "and also olives" bit tacked on but that was just Tiny being aggressively strange tonight. He hoped. He could not deal with another Olive de Milo.

The Devil's Nest was open!

Caritas- Saturday before 8:15 pm

It was that time of year again! New people were here! New people to date, get to know, or perhaps make a mortal enemy of!

You never know.

Signs were hung up in front of the bar, both obviously, and easy to miss for anyone who might wander in and get signed up without their knowledge. Above the bar was a banner (in glitter):

TONIGHT!
THREE MINUTE DATES!
GOOD LUCK WBRURBODY


Your hostess wasn't gonna question it. And a few minutes before 8:00, she took the stage.

"Hello, everyone! And welcome to Three Minute Dates!" Kitty greeted them. "If you're new to this, the rules are simple. We call your name along with one other person. You talk to this person, get to know their likes, their loves, their dreams. After three minutes, a buzzer will sound-" Pause for the sound. "-and you'll hear your name paired with a different person. Et cetera. If there is anyone you'd like to talk to more, the bar will be open afterwards for drinks and conversation. Remember that any violence will get you transported into the pond, but also please don't attempt violence in order to flee, that is rude to the rest of your dates. Now I'm going to get off the stage. Have fun, and good luck..."

She trailed off, not going to attempt to pronounce the word on that sign.

The Beach, Monday afternoon

After classes were over (or roughly, it wasn't like he kept track like some kind of creeper), he put on his favorite Hawaiian shirt from the Shenanigans--the Hot Dog Bigfoots--and headed down to the beach.

In a little while, there were four fires roaring merrily: three on different grills with a variety of meats, one sequestered just for pork products, and one for vegetarian options. Steve'd even sourced some fresh ahi again and was feeling particularly pleased with himself about that.

The fourth fire was a cute little bonfire with neatly stacked rejected Shenanigan shirts placed a safe distance from it, along with buckets of water and sand for fire safety (and because McGarrett had 100 percent been a Boy Scout).

There were coolers of drinks including one of beer with a sign--"If you are from the HS and take a beer at a cop party, you're dumber than we thought and are v sad for you"--as the only disincentive.

Come on down, Fandom! Say goodbye to the summer. Eat food, drink beer, get rid of polyblend if that's your thing...

[OOC: Open to everyone!]

The Park, Friday afternoon

Do you know who loved feeling engulfed in flames?

Well, not many people, but especially not Anakin. It seemed to be on-theme for the absolute steaming pile of eopie poodoo that this week had been. He sat down on the bench he'd been stuck to for an hour on Wednesday, pulled out his comm link and took a resigned selfie, flames all around.

This is fine, he wrote and then sent it to Jaina and Tahiri. They'd, at least, know why this was ironically hilarious.

Then he stared out at the pond and watched the ducks and flamingoes wander past, not on fire.

Pizza Planet- Saturday afternoon

With Jag off on a diplomatic trip that Jaina absolutely wanted no part of, she brought the twins to Fandom for the week. They had one more day so she'd asked them what they wanted to do, and of course the answer was "pizza."

The answer had been "pizza" every day since they first had pizza.

So since they wouldn't have it again for a while, Jaina brought them. Daniel was busy picking toppings off his slice while also saying it was fine, which had Dax trying to take the discarded pieces off his plate, which was a betrayal because even if Daniel didn't want them they were his. So Jaina was spending most of this time intervening.

She'd finally brokered an agreement to give Dax half, and was splitting up the pieces between their plates and saying, "I warned you about the pineapple."

The Devil's Nest, Monday, August 15, 2021

Eric was at the bar tonight, enjoying a Manhattan expertly poured by Tiny and relaxing.

Tiny was creating an elaborate three-dimensional castle made entirely out of cocktail olives in a cabinet under the bar.

Eric was very much ignoring that.

The Devil's Nest was open!
