[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.

A Manhattan. I think, [he adds a second later and gives his drink a dubious look.] It tastes close enough, anyway. I imagine it's got to be hard to find real Canadian whisky in this place.

[he takes a sip from his drink, then offers out his hand in greeting.] I'm Kaidan. Are you also new to, uh, wherever this place is?

Yeah, I just got here the other day. Name's Netzach.

[he takes that hand for a brief shake-- the grip's pretty thoroughly average, no attempt made to make any sort of statement with it or to draw it out before he lets go.]

Pretty sure it's not gonna have the specific beers I'm used to, either, but what I've tasted so far isn't bad. I never really went for cocktails before.
yeahsoyknowidunno: (sure tell me more)

Oh yeah? What's your preferred poison then--you more of a lager guy or an ale guy?

[this is about the safest topic of conversation Kaidan can conceive of, given the unsettling circumstances that they've all been tossed into. their current surroundings at least help to offset some of the unease that he's been unable to shake since he stepped off the train and into this city forgotten by space and time; shooting the shit over drinks makes him almost feel like he's attending one of his parents' terrace garden parties back home in Vancouver. almost.]

Ale's the stronger one, right?

[so: that one.]

Not that I don't also enjoy alcohol for its own sake, but I'd rather need less of it... if I'm not going for beer, though, absinthe's not bad.

[another sip of the cocktail, there, with a little hum. this really is good.]

What about you?
