open-ish / it's never too late to get down and party

🧙 WHO: Kate & her adult CR (and anyone they might want to invite!) / people who work at the Roost?
⚔️️ WHAT: It's Kate's birthday and she wants to make the most of it, so the obvious solution is to rent out the Phoenix Roost for a night of getting drunk.
🕒 WHEN: 15th August
🗺️ WHERE: Phoenix Roost
⚠️ WARNINGS: Probably excessive alcohol consumption, hopefully some sinning.


( have you met Kate? are you over the age of eighteen? then, at the beginning of the month, you'll receive the following text; )

Party. 15th. 9pm. Phoenix Roost. Wear what you want. Bring who you want.

( yeah, that's about all the details you're getting. so why not grab a friend, a significant other, or your worst enemy, and find out what's going on?

the Phoenix Roost is as it ever is, except for the fact that the only people there have heard about this party in one way or another. there's nothing to suggest that this party is for reasons other than Kate simply wanting to host one, but if you're here, you might know her well enough to guess that to be untrue.

but, hey, does that matter? there's alcohol flowing freely and music playing, so grab a drink, talk to a stranger, make bad choices! just try to avoid murder for a night, thank you.
)

( ooc; I might be busy on the 15th, so I've thrown this up now! It's a mingle log, you know how this works. Post your own top levels, warn for anything that needs warning, be good to each other. If you're not sure whether your character would be invited, just poke me at [plurk.com profile] exits / exits#8071 and we can chat! )

[He takes the next shot with as much ease as the last, though puts the glass down a little more slowly as she asks the question. Ah, he doesn't think she meant it seriously, but one corner of his mouth quirks up in a tiny smirk.]

There is.

[Because of course there is!]

I don't know him personally. We haven't met. [But he knows of him, if only through his association with the Holy See, who Red Wine can never quite stop orbiting even if it's from a distance.] He's a member of a group I've had occasional association with.

Hah!

[No offence taken.]

I suppose you live on a spherical world orbiting a single star. [He rests his elbow on the table, then one side of his jaw against the heel of his hand. With his free hand, he lines up another shot in front of himself.]

I would find that to be incredibly strange.

[She's going to regret that question.

Red Wine looks around the table for a moment, then grabs two empty shot glasses.
]

The planet I come from... is a world orbiting a binary star system. Like so. [The shot glasses are obviously the stars, and he traces his finger around them in an orbital pattern.]

One star rises in the east and sets in the west, while the other star rises in the west but sets in the east. There's an axis change once a year, so we have seasons. [He glances up at her, purely to gauge her reaction as he speaks again.]

And Tierra - the planet - is alive.

As in, it's a living creature. A whale, actually.

[Has Kate had enough to drink to take that in? Possibly not. He pours them both out another shot and slides one towards her.]

Swimming through space.

[He can't help but laugh. That's about the reaction he expected.]

If I had some paper, I could draw a picture. But that might just make it worse.

[Then he joins her in another shot, because why not.]

[His grin has a sharp edge. Not quite unpleasant, but with the air of looking slightly forced. It fades after a moment and he shakes his head before pouring them both out another shot.]

It breaks more than one expectation, I think, in terms of other worlds I've heard about.

[Imagine your world being round.]

But it's where I come from. I don't know anything else as 'normal'.

[His brows raise slightly. Admittedly that's... something he isn't familiar with.]

I'm going to need another drink if this is what we're discussing.

[More shots? He's admittedly finally starting to feel faintly fuzzy around the edges.]

We have monsters too, but you might find their origins as strange as you find mine.
