[MINGLE, ESPECIALLY TO NEWCOMERS] ROOFTOP FESTIVITIES!!!

WHO: All!
WHAT: Rooftop festivities!
WHERE: On a rooftop of an office building in the second open district!
WHEN: 8/14, evening!
WARNINGS: alcohol, tba as it goes


Banner displayed inside the train station, outside city hall, and on the most used residence buildings.

Follow the arrows.

So you're unaware. Maybe new. Or maybe you just didn't care the first time you saw it. That's fine. Between the banners hanging around key areas, and the flyers quickly drawn up in a similar fashion scattered across the city, it's hard not to know something is going on -- and there's helpful arrows, chalked on building walls and the streets the day of the party, to let people know where to go.

The Rooftop

A splendid scene awaits those who travel heavensward. Fairy lights connect the corners of the roof access building to metal poles at the corners of the building itself, lifted by cylindrical supports where needed, each one held straight by pots filled with well-packed dirty and stone. There's multicolored stars hanging from some of the lights, while various painted flowers hang on others, and what greets the ears first is some royalty free party music played from a CD player off the the side.

There's a long folded out table in the center for those who'd like to share cuisine, just set and serve yourself! Nearby is a space for Daan to do some bartending as well, a man who can make a multitude of cocktails and mocktails for those who want something less alcoholic. Also, pints of various ice cream flavors in a cooler!

Don't worry -- they won't have any odd effects on them, Don verified the lack of them herself. Not all of them are normal. Think loaded baked potato weird.

For those who'd like a quieter space, there's beanbags and a swirly, fuzzy carpet to sit on more away from the center of the party area. This'll be a great time to play some games, such as truth or dare, spin the bottle, and... whatever else you play at parties. Get to know your fellow man and such. Play the violin.

Naturally, no party... hosted... by Don Quixote would be without a space to fight, if one wishes to show off a little! It's also taking place on a swirly fuzzy carpet, just so no one smashes their head in, and there's a neat little banner hanging down from a string of lights that says thus:

WIN THREE MATCHES AND A PRIZE AWAITS THEE!!!!!!!
- NO KILLING
- HANDS ONLY


What the prize is, no one knows. But come find Don Quixote with your battle scars and she'll grant it -- and stick around a while, 'cause this party's gonna end with a bang... that is, with homemade fireworks donated by "a friend" through Junpei.

Anyway, have fun!!! Share words about your worlds!!! The society your characters are from, the cuisine they've brought, how they're working out in the city -- help the new kids along, too. There's more vets here now than there were a few months ago, after all.

[ The only thing Harley gets wrong is that she's sad — a touch uncomfortable, yes. Sad? No. She's not much of an introvert by nature or in practice so while the idea of "make allies" or as Peter would like "make friends" is the reason she came to this stupid thing — She's mostly. A wallflower, watching from her corner. Picking up conversation now and then and not really touching the food. Mind, she is a looming wallflower who looks like she'll chew someone out, but a wallflower none-the-less. ]

[ Because of that, maybe she wasn't expecting someone to slide up next to her. To touch her least of all and Nebula jerks back, one hand coming to slap the hand away - not to hurt her, at least, but to get her off. Dark orbs wary as she eyes her: ]

Touch me again and I'll break your hand.

[ Is that her greeting or how alright she is? Hard to say, but she sounds serious. ]

[The girl she's chosen to try to 'comfort' is a weird one - blue-skinned with some kinda technological doodad on her head and no hair. It doesn't phase Harley a bit, because she's pretty drunk, set on finding unhappy girls and comforting them, and generally is actually pretty used to weird people. In fact, lately she's been hanging out almost exclusively with weird people. Maybe not blue people, but weird people nonetheless.

Anyway, it's not that weird after Mongal and King Shark and Weasel.

It's also not weird when the girl swats at her, slaps her hand away, and threatens to break her hand if she touches her again. Harley just laughs, bright and happy and shrugs, lifting both hands as if to show she's unarmed.]


Hey, hey, no offense meant. Just checkin' if you're okay over here. You looked kinda lonely.

[A sage nod, and she drops her hand, looking around to see if there's another drink handy, whether it's made for her or for someone else. A moment later, and her attention is back on the blue girl, and there's a drink in her hand. Where did it come from? Who knows?

But she offers it to the blue girl.]


Drink?

[ Harley laughs and Nebula frowns not finding anything funny. At least that much isn't unusual. At least she also knows the unarmed gesture well enough - it's truly universal and used by Peter on her at least once a day. Seeing it doesn't relax her any. Not when Harley continues on. ]

I'm not. Lonely.

[ She takes careful time to say the last word - it's not exactly said with acid but it's said pointed enough that she doesn't want to hear it again. She's never been lonely before (she has, she just doesn't know or want to figure that much out). But she couldn't be lonely in this crowd of people. ]

[ Her head tilts as the other woman practically materializes another drink and she half glances between her and it before taking it wordlessly. At least she doesn't yank it! But she does pause before taking a drink of it, ]

Who are you?
