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!

[He doesn't question this too much, considering the Earth thing is clearly not a constant around here.]

Punch. And I'm pretty sure a few people have spiked it.

[Not that he's complaining]

Punch? Oh, it's called punch? [Right? You're not inviting him to fight or something?] And spiking is adding alcohol?
bi_otic: (smiling)

[In retrospect, he realizes how that might have sounded, and he laughs]

Right on both counts, yeah. Considering they don't have an open bar, this suits me just fine.

[I mean, he prefers beer, but there's that free thing again.]

I uh, haven't been here long. Not much money for a gift to bring in trade.

I know how that is. I just got here too. But I know Winn from before this place, so I wanted to get him something anyway.

He did mention something about being lucky. Though for you I suppose that works both ways.

[He's trying to not be jealous]
spacebro: (Amused - Light smile)

[He's not sure he understands all the ways his luck is working right now, but he's had a few drinks.]

If it helps he doesn't remember me.
bi_otic: (this is business)

[That gets a thin smile out of him] Not really... [Because now he feels guilty for bringing it up]...but thanks for trying.

[Well, his work here is done then!] What's a guy you just met at a party for, right? [At least for trying!]
