[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.

Absolutely not.

( what if it rained. she is not dealing with one of her people catching a cold— but maybe because it's her, saying she'll do this, that he's so fussy. (that she's perceiving him to be fussy.) )

If Roland's not too sheet-faced, then I'll let him deal with you. Would you like that better?

I mean, I don't see why not...

[he has no problem with roland, he can help? maybe they can both chill up here.]

( if you two both chill up here she swears to the wings she will roll both of you off this stupid fucking building and— )

Then I'll leave you to him, like always, since obviously y... ( she snaps her mouth shut, looking at the rest of the party. takes a deep breath, lets it out slowly. ) ...I'll let him know.

( ... )

Are you worried about how things are going back at the Library?

Angela...?

[his brows furrow, at that-- it's something a little more unexpected from her, and even drunk, it doesn't escape his notice.

for a second he's quiet, but if she's moved on he knows well enough that she probably won't explain it. may as well just answer her question.]


...I guess I am. If it were just me here, that would be one thing. The Library could run without me, my assistants can handle the floor pretty well, but... if you're here, that's a bigger problem than a few missing librarians.

( yeah, that seems to be everyone's concern. angela tilts her head back on the beanbag to stare at the sky, thinking. is her library falling apart without her, in a literal sense? and yet nothing had been amiss despite people's apparent disappearances...

rather, despite them claiming to be here, nothing had been amiss back home. )


I have a theory this is similar to how the WARP trains work, but I can't be certain. ( if only there were a real way to know....... oh well. ) I wouldn't be able to say who's the copy and who's the original, either. It isn't as if, cognitively speaking, we would know the difference.

[what was it he'd said to roland before? i'm likely someone or something's imitation, too. not really human, despite his body being physical and living again.]

Maybe it wouldn't really matter. Another Netzach would probably be more or less the same as me, right?

I suppose the thought wouldn't bother you or the other librarians, would it.

( considering. but for angela... it matters. there's no helping it right now, but it matters... she'll move on. we aren't digging into her trauma right now. )

I'm going to continue reading. ( her nice perfect book, annotated and thick and full of great wisdom stolen from everyone who's ever stepped into the library. ) You can sleep, Netzach. I'll kick you awake before I leave.

( so he can say bye, or just to... let him know she hasn't disappeared out of nowhere. she doesn't think he'd be worried about her, none of them should be, but. hmph. )
