- Open + Floor 55

All of the careless dancing, drunken fools and useless giggling conversations made Erebus sick. Not because she had drank any alcohol herself, the circus leader hadn’t touched a single drink or food being passed around since she instead had settled for standing in the shadows unmoving. She didn’t even know why she bothered to show up to the event dressed up, it wasn’t as if it was going to make her feel physically or mentally better about all the shit that she already had to deal with right now. Maybe she was just hoping for something to go horribly wrong, like the ceiling completely collapsing or everyone began to suddenly choke since whatever was being handed out was poisoned. Nothing, absolutely nothing of that sort seemed to be happening anytime soon, so Erebus settled for standing peevishly in her shadowed corner until some poor unfortunate soul decided to come near her bubble of brewing irritability. “Find another spot to drunkenly sulk over your pathetic life, this one’s already taken.”

It would be inappropriate of him to not come to the event.

At least, that’s what he told himself as he got dressed for the thing. He wouldn’t admit it to anyone here, but getting dressed up was something he quite enjoyed. Donned in a red suit to support Blood Oath colors, he’s hyper-aware of the location of his daggers. The embroidered one is sheathed in his breast pocket, mostly for display, and he has another in his waistband. Finally, he’s strapped one to his ankle.

David was skeptical of this whole event. Last time there was a Dick-sanctioned event, an entire guild was wiped out. The only thing he knew for sure is that he was better off here than not, in case something were to happen. They were all sitting ducks at this kind of thing. This is why the slightest sound interrupts him as he’s about to enter another room. His hand isn’t off the knob before he eases up at the realization it wasn’t a monster. “Don’t sneak up on people like that,” he breathes.

players: kali + open

she was doing her best to just relax and enjoy this party, just ignore the feeling that something really bad was going to happen during this, the game’s history of having nice events (aka the grand opening of the club and the funeral) never went well. but she stood rather off to the side, significantly tipsy, and twisted the ring on her left hand. before the person who was coming towards her could say anything she gave a defense, “i swear i’m having fun, i just needed a break.”

players: Padme + open location: a busy window room in the aspens estate.

Padme may have been having a difficult time letting lose.

The party was meant to be a break, a chance to let down their hair (though Padme, who almost always fought, baked, and lived with her hair down, had tied hers up for the occasion) but it was difficult to manage when every time you danced into a nearby room, you saw a new one being made. So she’d tried to test it, tried for the escape route, wondered if that window above the desk could lead to the outside.

It had not.

The moment she had tried to wiggle through, the room had spawned another, and the desk she’d been balancing on toppled over, leaving her absolutely nothing to climb back down on. Now she was stuck in a window with half her body in a very nice sitting room and half her body--well looking out onto a dance floor where plenty of players were having a fine time. She waved awkwardly at a passing player then leaning against the window sill as if this was exactly where she’d meant to end up. “Having a nice time?”

players: peach (orange cursor) + OPEN location: floor 55, Just off the dancefloor

Peach was used to the flash at this point in the night. When she’d found the old camera on 52, she didn’t think it would actually work, and yet here she was, taking another selfie with Rad and Fin. Radish had been sighing about how his instagram was missing out-- it really was, everyone deserved to see Radish in a tux-- so Peach came up with the brilliant idea to start using the camera to share their photos. It was a model she’d never seen pre-V, like an instax, but clunkier. The photos still developed just the same though. It started as a joke, but by the first few rounds of drinks, Fin, Radish, and Peach had handed out their collective selfies to the entirety of Catalyst and were on their way to expanding to the rest of the guilds. “Make sure to give that a like,” Peach said as she handed a still-developing photo to the closest player nearby.

floor 55: players: blaq & ?

To say Blaq loved gala’s was a severe understatement, especially since it was really just one big and fancy costume party. It was usually an semi elegant affair, depending. If her family threw it, it usually was a drag of prudes judging other prudes lack of fashion sense or new generations comfort with their body. But in velia, Blaq had no boundaries, no regulations and even with her simple get up her ego was on the prowl today. She could feel the adrenaline pumping through her chest, her blood warm and her stride strong. It was either that or the alcohol starting to hit, either was fine by her, sliding into the open bar to order another glass of pineapple rum.

“Good thing the game master is footing this bill...”
