[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.

You do...? I haven't worked all that much with 'em, but I could give it a shot. I think I get the basics.

[so maybe he can help her figure it out, sort of. or maybe it'll end up just being messy, but then there's nothing wrong with that either, is there?]

My birds...? I'm pretty okay at animals, I guess.

[his doodles of the r corp animals... ]

Why?

That's a little more work than I expected out of an art association...

[is he gonna have to deliver messages or something too if they're messengers? is he secretly getting roped into a job? say it isn't so...]

Guess birds do make sense for danger, though. They can cause a lot of trouble too.

I guess it does sound better than sorting books.

[anything is better than his job... she'll learn pretty fast that he's always tired, though.]

It's supposed to be.

[says local librarian who absolutely does not do that.]

I like to nap, though, if I don't feel like painting or drawing... maybe have a few drinks with Roland or Gebura if they're free.

It's not like I can do much else...

[he shrugs one shoulder, lazily. sometimes your options are just limited.]

If there's no currency, though, aren't we going to be in trouble if anyone does want to collect later?

He is if he takes it from the wrong place.

[it's not something he likes, exactly, but-- it's the way of things, as they are now.]

But we don't really have any indication of whether anything here's the wrong place, so... let's hope it's fine?

[personal profile] abstractart 2023-08-17 01:19 am (UTC)(link)
You really think so, huh...

[definitely not common, for people from the city... though given the way she was talking about fixers, he's not sure if it's exactly hope or delusion. maybe it's always a little bit of both, though, when it comes to trying to change things like that.

whichever it is, he kind of hopes she doesn't talk that way around angela. she probably can't book people here, at least... but still.]


Hey, what District are you from, anyway?

[personal profile] abstractart 2023-08-17 01:56 am (UTC)(link)
...yeah, I guess that's fair.

[at least in the sense that, while it definitely always has an influence, it's not like they can't separate themselves from it if they really want to.]

It was K, for me.

[if he's asking, he may as well be willing to answer it himself, right?]

Mm... it's not familiar, but it's been a while since I lived there, anyway. There's enough details I don't really remember about it.

[he didn't get around all that much, either.]

What'd you like there, though?
abstractart: (DQvomit)

[personal profile] abstractart 2023-08-17 05:37 am (UTC)(link)
Can't help you much with that here, I'm not really a cook... but you can probably rely on Roland to show you some of the good stuff.

[roland who knows more of what he's talking about...]

Usually when he hangs out on my floor of the Library, it's to drink, so... maybe find him some good alcohol?

[personal profile] abstractart 2023-08-17 06:21 pm (UTC)(link)
Do we look that old...?

[like. she isn't wrong, exactly? that's just not quite what he anticipated.]

I'm not a Fixer though, no. I've never really been the type for that kind of work.
