Jul 04, 2009 15:20

HAPPY 4th OF JULY!

[or so says a huge banner over the Lux. Come on in, everybody! If you brought a dish, put it down on the long table on the left, otherwise just come on in to eat and socialize! Soft music playing in the background... some of it patriotic, most of it just summer-y, because, hey, not everyone here is American. The decor ( Read more... )

risika, barney stinson, ted kord (blue beetle), billy kaplan (wiccan), adrian farenheights tepes (alucard), michael k. carter (booster gold), lyra belacqua, briar moss, teddy altman (hulkling), zora khyber, saetan sadiablo, amanda grayson

[marches in, in khakis and a pinstriped short-sleeve dress shirt, and puts a ... rather lopsided-looking but somehow miraculously intact dish of 7-layer chili dip on the table. ... looks around sneakily, and then yoinks a chocolate chip cookie. munch.]

xy_venus July 4 2009, 19:43:15 UTC

[and Zora comes up to straighten out the table, make a little more room.]

Hmm... we should probably rustle up some tortilla chips to go with that.

bro_codebreaker July 4 2009, 19:44:33 UTC

Sounds like a job for the ghosts, don'cha think? ... This all looks awesome, by the way. ... Yourself included. [knows she's not into him, but he winks anyway]

xy_venus July 4 2009, 19:46:11 UTC

Thanks! Saetan did most of the decorating, really.

bro_codebreaker July 4 2009, 19:47:28 UTC

I gotta say, I don't mind the new look as much as I thought I would. ... Kinda ... makes me feel like some sort of medieval lord, you know?

xy_venus July 4 2009, 19:48:16 UTC

Yeah, I guess... but I'm pretty sure he's a lot older than he looks.

bro_codebreaker July 4 2009, 19:49:46 UTC

I know a lotta people here like that ... it wouldn't surprise me. [shrugs] ... So, uh. Nobody else is here yet, huh?

xy_venus July 4 2009, 19:51:50 UTC

I think Saetan's in the back... he might be talking to Arwen, I just saw her drop off the few bottles of mead she promised... but you're a little early, I guess.

bro_codebreaker July 4 2009, 19:53:21 UTC

Huh. ... I don't think I've met her. ... [holds out a hand] Can I put the first notch in your dance card? Just one. Call it a warm-up.

xy_venus July 4 2009, 19:55:53 UTC

...what sort of dance? And there really isn't a terrible lot of room... unless we move those tables over there... Do you think we should?

bro_codebreaker July 4 2009, 19:59:01 UTC

Well, it's a party, right? And there's music. As my brother would say, "people gon' dance". Here, I'll help... [heads over to one of the tables] If we move this one over there, and set those two at an angle like ... [lots of illustrative hand gestures] There'll be plenty of room.

xy_venus July 4 2009, 20:00:25 UTC

Okay.
[and helps him move tables! Because girl is stronger than she looks...]

bro_codebreaker July 4 2009, 20:04:40 UTC

[is impressed! she reminds him a little of Robin in that respect] You kinda remind me of a friend of mine, back home, you know...

xy_venus July 4 2009, 20:07:13 UTC

Do I? How so?

bro_codebreaker July 4 2009, 20:09:54 UTC

Just ... your attitude, I guess. The way you carry yourself. You're ... you're a total girl, but at the same time you're not afraid to act like a guy if you have to. It's cool.

[pause] ... I didn't think I'd meet anyone else like her.
