video/action : open!
Who: Kitty Pryde + everyone
Broadcast: Network
Action: Iskaulit: Dance studio
When: New Year’s Eve (slightly backdated)
[Not long ago she’d been considering the best way to handle Winn’s birthday now that he’s gone and all. She considered enlisting a close friend or two to be on duty for support or distractions or just barricading herself in her room and feeling it and dealing with that. In the end she went with booze. Lots and lots of booze.
When she turns the feed on she’s lying down on a series of three chairs, holding the communicator above her head.]
Did I ever tell you about the time I was in Marina—the underwater prison place—and this tiny alien or robot or possibly dog man thing took over and made it rain fruit punch and then made us dance in a dance marathon and if we didn’t he was going to put us in a room with a moose. And I’m not drunk! [She laughs like she just said something very funny.]
No, no, I mean I am drunk but it’s also true. It was a very strange place. Did you know you had to get a wristband if you wanted to have sex with someone? Yeah. It was like being at a bar and wanting drink. [Speaking of wanting to drink. She looks around for her bottle and then lifts herself up enough to achieve drinking.] Oh! And then it was like enforced monogamy where you could only be with your band partner.
Wristband. Not like music band. You didn’t have to have sex with the person you played the flute with. [More laughing.]
What was I…? Oh, yeah, do you know I haven’t kissed anyone in moooonths? Yeah. Like May. May 10th. [Winn disappeared May 11.] In the prison you couldn’t do that because every two months—if they were months—they would send out these mistletoe robots that would make you kiss someone or lots of someones. Usually lots of someones. They had shrinking forcefields and confetti. I had to kiss a guy without lips once. Did I mention it was a weird place?

no subject
[He doesn't look upset that she's trying to pry though. Just gently uninterested in giving up any answers.]
no subject
Should we go ahead and schedule this other time? Me and you and a bottle of something strong that only you drink?
no subject
[He's such a busy guy.]
But for the record, I don't mind sharing.
[i.e., if this happens he's definitely not the only one getting drunk.]
no subject
You mean this is a team sport? Why did I do it all by myself? [Because you are tragic and broken and more than a little dramatic even if it is well earned.]
no subject
[A gentler answer than being tragic and broken. Though he suspects that's actually the case.]
no subject
I'll know for next time. [She hopes there isn't a next time but knows better than to bet against it.]
no subject
If there is a next time-- Well, I'm sure you don't lack for people who would drink with you. [Which is why she's drinking alone??] But anyway. I don't mind doing that either.
no subject
...But thanks, Felix. I didn't do this to remind me how many of you are straight up lushes [or care about her, mostly the caring] but it's still nice to have the reminder.
no subject
Yeah. Any time.
[Is 'any time' less ominous than 'if there is a next time'?]
no subject
Thanks. See you around? [She has some passing out to do soon after all. Busy, busy!]
no subject
[He smiles back a little faintly, and then cuts the video.]
