more than a few drinks in, max could feel the familiar buzz settling in as he glanced at the crowd. he was nowhere near drunk, though, but to him that only meant keep going. heading towards the bar, his eyes landed on a particular figure. she seemed familiar, but he was sure they hadn’t met before. “would you care for some company?” he asked, motioning to the seat next to her. “you’re way too beautiful to be drinking alone.” good one, max. not lame at all. @annabcllc

BEACHES, BARBECUES, AND BONFIRES – WILSHIRE EVENT #009

in the darkest times, routine and traditions are important - even the simplest kind, like the annual bonfire down on the beach. put on every year by the downworlder council, each of the leaders has some sort of influence over the party and each plays a part in adding to the protection and security. a tradition that has been going on for the last three decades the bonfire is known for being a safe reprieve, even compared to the other events - magic created by warlocks, fae, and merfolk prevents those that intend harm from getting in, those that usually need to hide can walk around without a glamour, and being run by the council ensures that there is fun to be had no matter what species or age.

the evening kicks off with the bonfire being lit and the grills get going right away, and from there your evening is in your hands. will you play in the waves or practice your moves out on the makeshift dance floor? belt out your favorite song or try your luck at winning the eating contest? make castles in the sand or roast marshmallows in the fire? no matter what you choose, there’s fun to be had wherever you turn.

while typically advertised as a downworlder exclusive event, shadowhunters and even some mundanes with the sight have been known to slip in - and so long as they don’t cause trouble, they’re generally allowed to stay for the evening. the rules are simple - no killing, no arresting, and keep your fighting friendly. so grab your swimsuit, shake off your troubles, and head out to the beach.

little update of my boys for the event:

lukas: he just wanted to stay home and chill with his and elena’s pets, but he is being dragged to beach anyways, so catch him being grumpy and wearing the most obnoxious floreal shirt (x)

dimitri: he lowkey wanted to go but at the same time he didn’t, thankfully leta made him go, and he lokey like to show off so a real outfit? he doesn’t know what that is, plus he’d spend most of his time in the water anyways. (x)

mason: since no one stopped him, he is sporting sparkly shorts (approved by jj) and most likely running around because this wolf is excited (x)

i think that’s all, if anyone wants a thread with any of them lmk~

alright here’s a rundown of outfits for my characters at the bbq.

august || carmen || athena || talia (and the sweater)

also august has set up a million and one different kinds of wards and magical protections around the party, strengthened by a few of his fellow warlocks that he asked for assistance. so if anything happens or anyone tries anything, he will definitely know.

     As the evening moved further along he had garnered a pleasant little buzz, the kind that warmed your guts in some sentiment of comfort however not to the point it hindered judgement or reflexes in case a need arose he yet had to remain alert, which, what a funny concept to fixate on in the environment Emery had led himself in. Wading through shallow water almost knee deep, more for the effect of cooling down after spending hours in the certainly not chilly night air than anything, hint of a smile lingered on lips as he regarded presence hovering close by, noise of partying not too far away. “ Do you not find it.. intriguing they can yet celebrate with such vigour, despite the threat of what may happen this time lingering in everyone’s mind. ” There’s a short pause, gaze fixed on the twinkling stars above distractedly before head craned to cast a vaguely convivial look at the other. “ How do you feel about a midnight swim? ”

[elorvs]

elora couldn’t help but feel out of place at the event. despite being the seelie queen she didn’t really know anybody there and just had this awkward aura that didn’t seem to attract anyone to come talk to her. watching the dancing people made her smile but also a little envious. the seelie helped herself to some food when she carelessly bumped into a nother person. “oh, i’m terribly sorry! i’m such a klutz.”

[zozeeboss]

the young nephilim was properly enjoying herself since parties had always been her thing. holding a red solo cup in her hand the blonde was mindlessly dancing, catching up with people she hadn’t talked to in a while. there were far more downworlders than zoe had assumed there to be which was far better than seeing too many shadowhunters-- she wasn’t too fond of her own kind anyways. “hey! wanna dance?” she called out to the nearest person, a kind laugh escaping her lips.

[kalebwilliamson]

kaleb showed up fashionably late as always-- even though the main reason was simple: he was only able to arrive when the sun had set. greeting a few people along the way, the vampire grabbed one of the blood bags provided for the downworlders and poured himself a drink, aimlessly wandering around the beach. “hey,” the brunet mused as he spotted what seemed to be a familiar face.
