MINGLE — NYE & Winn's Birthday PARTY!

Who: Everyone!
Broadcast: Broadcast — Earlier than now for planning
Action: Hotel Corona — Winn's birthday / NYE party!
When: Action — Dec. 31 / New Year's Eve

[Broadcast (open to everyone but Winn)]
At the risk for earning a reputation as a party planner, I have a thing for everyone to attend again. Don't worry, lots of other people are helping pull it together. It's going to be on New Year's Eve, but the real event is the countdown to Winn's birthday which is also on the first. It's going to be in a club we rented out for this in the red shift district. Starts around seven-ish. Ends when you pass out?

It's kind of a surprise maybe? At least the part where it's for his birthday. And if you don't know Winn but you still want to come that's fine too. You can trade a gift for Winn for a free drink at the bar. Otherwise, bring some money. Cake's on us though.

[Birthday/New Year's Party]
[The space is well decorated and so glittered you can probably tell Wrath was part of the team putting this together. Lots of Winn's friends came out to help whether it was getting decorations up, managing food, music, or chipping in to buy out the space and a drink for anyone bringing a gift. Not to mention drinks for the birthday boy all night.

There's a table for presents and another one with a spread of openly available food though the bar has appetizers you can buy too. There's a big cake at one end because of course there is and some punch that didn't start the night spiked at least. There's space for dancing and a karaoke machine set up on a small raised platform for those who want to try their hand at entertainment.

The night really kicks off when Winn walks in and instead of a balloon drop there's a fluffy blue stuffed bear drop. Feel free to take one of those home. There are a lot.

When midnight comes closer some people will file out to one of the observation areas to get a good view of the nebula for the big countdown. Bring your own person to kiss!

It's already the best.

[ he's gonna...clap fenris' shoulder okay he's emotional but he's still not sure where the boundaries are so!! ] Come on, lemme get you a drink.

Good. I am glad.

[It's not a hug, which is what the elf was dreading, so he'll live with this. This is fine. ]

Well, you know I could not turn down such an offer.

[personal profile] winn 2017-01-05 09:13 am (UTC)(link)
s'why I made it!

[ he grins and walks with him to the bar, passing by the gift table on the way to deposit the book under some things to keep it safe from spillage. ]
wolfuncaged: (They couldn't hold that weight for long)

[Fenris follows, because hey, it's where the booze is. ]

So. Are you enjoying your day so far?

[Look. He's really trying with this social interaction thing, okay. ]
winn: (It’s Alive! It’s Alive!)

[personal profile] winn 2017-01-07 08:20 am (UTC)(link)
I'm having a blast!

[ winn responds happily and if he thinks fenris is being awkward he's definitely not showing any signs of it. ]

Thanks for coming, man.
wolfuncaged: (For I have made her prison be)

[personal profile] wolfuncaged 2017-01-08 10:31 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm glad of it.

[And he genuinely means that, all awkwardness aside. ]

Of course. You are a good friend, I wanted to wish you well on your birthday.

[personal profile] winn 2017-01-09 09:06 am (UTC)(link)
You're a pretty great friend yourself.

[ he smiles as he leans on the bar. ]

So, what're you having?
wolfuncaged: (No haven for this heart)

[personal profile] wolfuncaged 2017-01-09 11:11 pm (UTC)(link)
I...am pleased to hear that.

[No, really. He's kind of a shitty person, and he's well aware of that fact. It's nice to know he doesn't completely flunk at the friendship thing. ]

Is there any wine?
winn: (53)

[personal profile] winn 2017-01-10 07:06 am (UTC)(link)
[ you sound a little too surprised there, fenris, so you get another pat on the shoulder. it's just the price you have to pay for not knowing yet how much winn appreciates you being his friend, ok. ]

Yeah - red or white?
wolfuncaged: (Default)

[personal profile] wolfuncaged 2017-01-10 10:31 pm (UTC)(link)
Red, thank you.

[He falls into a comfortable silence, because he's never good at initiating small talk. He's happy in the silence though, companionable as it is. ]
winn: (07)

[personal profile] winn 2017-01-11 10:50 am (UTC)(link)
My pleasure!

[ cheerfully. he places the order and passes fenris his glass before taking his own - some sort of unidentified space cocktail that he grew to like. it's weak enough for him to be able to take the amount of drinks people have been buying him tonight. ]

To old friends in a new year - [ he proposes a toast. ]
wolfuncaged: (And it's raging)

[personal profile] wolfuncaged 2017-01-11 11:49 pm (UTC)(link)
[Ah, now this, this he could do. A smile crosses his face as he raises his glass in turn. ]

And to greeting the rest of it together as best we can.

[ that's all he wants from fenris - hanging out in ways that are enjoyable to both of them. ]

I'll drink to that. [ and so he does ]
