THE GALA ON ADSUM (Mingle Log)

[serpentis]

Who: Anyone and Everyone!
Broadcast: Nope!
Action: A ballroom on Adsum
When: 2/21, Evening-Night



[And the night has arrived! Dorian put out an open invitation, and anyone who is interested is welcome to dress up and meet up for a night of dancing and fawning over each other. Make sure to wear your best, everyone! It's a very special episode of Drift Fleet!]

((OOC: There was an open invitiation, but even if your character never replied or has had personal contact with Dorian, feel free to assume he's let them come along or be dragged along by someone else! I'll be tagging some threads, but if you want a thread to be closed, please just say so in the header.))

[Adachi makes a mental note to ask about the "terror" and "embarrassment" later.]

Did... I... go to many parties?

[onlyanapple]

[Crowley shrugs. ]

I think I remember seeing you at a few.

[cabbagedetective]

[Adachi's face flashes with frustration as he mulls this information over. It really was bugging him that he couldn't remember any of the time he supposedly spent in Paradisa. He still had a touch of doubt about whether or not Crowley was just playing some elaborate hoax. Maybe... if there were others...]

Crowley-san, are there any other fleet members that would remember me from Paradisa?

[onlyanapple]

Maybe? The other people from Paradisa who are here are Allen, Ino, Tsuna and Felix.

[He frowns, thinking.] I think that's all of them. You'd have to ask them if they remember you or not. I didn't keep tabs on their social calendars.

[cabbagedetective]

[Adachi made a mental list of those four names. Maybe they could help provide some answers to his lingering questions about Paradisa.]

Thanks. I'll ask them about it if I end up running into any of them.

[Adachi paused briefly to think more about these individuals.]

Although, if they did know me from Pardisa, I wonder why they didn't greet me the way you did when I first arrived here.

[onlyanapple]

[Crowley shrugs. ]

Maybe they hadn't met you. Or maybe they didn't like you. You might be the victim of an Ino freeze-out, or something. I don't know.

[cabbagedetective]

An "Ino freeze-out?"

[onlyanapple]

[He gives a wry smile.]

It's something that can only be experienced, never described.

[cabbagedetective]

[Something about Crowley's smile made Adachi uneasy.]

Well, uh- guess I'll watch out for that. [Adachi chuckles uneasily.] So... there's only about five of you then that came directly here from Paradisa?

[onlyanapple]

From what I can see, yep. Veterans, if you will.

[cabbagedetective]

[Adachi wonders if there could be more. Likely not, Crowley would likely know if there were. Plus, he already gave Adachi some names, so he probably wasn't hiding anyone either.]

How does it compare? Here and Paradisa?

[onlyanapple]

[Crowley gives him a sidelong glance. ]

Has anyone ever told you that you ask a lot of questions for one person?

[cabbagedetective]

[Dojima's face flashed in his mind briefly.] Ah sorry, am I being annoying? [Adachi chuckles apologetically.] It just comes with the job. I guess I still need to learn when to close my big mouth.

[Damn. He knew he had been badgering Crowley with questions, but he had foolishly hoped Crowley hadn't been paying attention. Or at least hadn't cared... Still, he realized he should tone it down. If he was going to get more information about Paradisa, it was likely going to come from one of the other "veterans."]

[onlyanapple]

If you get exceptionally irritating, I'll just tune you out, it's fine.

[He gives a smile. Possibly he's joking, possibly he isn't.]

[cabbagedetective]

[Adachi outwardly chuckles awkwardly, but inside he's a little pissed. Yeah, message received Crowley. He'll stop badgering you about Paradisa... at least until he possibly gets some new information.]

Well, uh- think I'll go get some more punch. You want a refill?

[onlyanapple]

[What a good kid. ]

Yeah, sure, knock yourself out.

[cabbagedetective]

[Adachi takes Crowley's cup and makes his way back to the punch bowl. However, rather than actually get Crowely a refill, Adachi decides to "forget" his cup... in the trash... Rather passive aggressive, to say the least, but Adachi nonetheless sneers. He gets himself a refill and decides to see if there's anyone less annoying to talk to at the party.]

[onlyanapple]

[And Crowley would not be surprised. They win at not being dicks. ]
