Twenty-somethings gotta twenty-something

[mikangirl]

Who: Everyone invited, everyone gatecrashing (technically you're all invited, so...)
Broadcast: Who knows, maybe some drunken texting later on
Action: Iskaulit Pool!
When: 3 July

[It's a party for a narcissistic redhead who likes to be reminded she's alive.  Come celebrate!  Alternately, come sneak in and steal the food!  There's a bar set up for drinks drastically lowered to cost-price or to-be-paid-later-tab, a non-alcoholic punch in case of wandering minors (spike it and Nami will end you) and random snacks.

Oh, and a pool.  Which is heated.  Kind of important, that part.

Step right up, I'm reliably informed we'll have Thor with his shirt off, take pictures while you can.]

[Why are we signalling... oh, right, because alcohol.]

I'll leave it for you. People like treat me like a child when I'm drinking.

[mikangirl]

[Wat. She accepts her drink from Vash the handwaved but her glance at Kitty is full of confusion.]

What? Why? Are you supposedly not old enough to drink or something?

[passingthrough]

[Hey, handwaved, Vash, heeeeey.

She shakes her head.] No, even back home where the age is high I'd be old enough. It's more that when I get drunk I get a little...[flirty, ridiculous, extra dramatic, and occasionally morose?] silly and people act like they need to carry me back to my room or something.

[mikangirl]

[Snrk.] Sounds like a situation to take fun advantage of, in some places. If you want to get drunk, promise I'll run interference and let you crawl home on your own.

[Handwave-shamwave! Vash will bring them their drinks with a small flourish.] Here you are ladies! [Once delivered he bows himself out of the conversation. He has work to do after all!]

[passingthrough]

Thanks. [She smiles and now this is where she totally checks his butt out when he leaves! Even if he makes it hard with that coat of his.]

[Looking back to Nami.] That's a great offer. The problem is when I'm drunk I feel the need to tell everyone I'm drunk. [She does it to herself and that's what really hurts.]

[mikangirl]

[Laughing a little, even as she waves off the not-so-handwaved Vash.] See, that just makes it more of a challenge.

What's with you guys, anyway? [It's kind of hard to notice the sudden couple-vibe going on at this pool.]

[passingthrough]

What? Which guys? Me and Vash? [Yes, good save. She's probably already forgotten what she asked about.]

He's from my ship. [You're co-captains, Kitty. Co. Captains.]

[mikangirl]

Mmhmm. You must have a pretty close-knit ship, then. [Eyebrow waggle. Nami, that's just rude.]

[passingthrough]

[She sighs.] Fine! There's a thing. It's a thing. A new thing. It's not super defined.

[mikangirl]

It seems like a cute thing. [Her smile is gently teasing. All she's thinking is: she hopes neither of you suddenly vanish on the other. But happiness is a great thing, take it where you can, right?] Who cares about super defining, anyway?

[passingthrough]

Yeah, it kind of is. [She smiles a little and glances over to where he is. And don't worry, she thinks about it too. How could she not? Her heart is still trying to put itself back together over Winn.]

And not this girl. Definitions are for...dictionaries. And I am not one of those. [Awkward.] I haven't actually mentioned it to anyone else yet. [Not that it's a secret. It just isn't super known. Maybe she's kept it a little bit a secret, expecting it to fall apart instead of together.]

[mikangirl]

I kinda don't think you have to. Mention it, that is. [Anyone who isn't blind is going to pick up on the whole, you know, playful thing.] But if it helps, I won't gossip about it.

[passingthrough]

Right. It's no one else's business. [The point just zoomed past her.] It would probably be pretty dull gossip anyway.

[mikangirl]

On this Fleet? Never underestimate just how bored the local population is.

[Yeah, she saw that point sail on past. Just gonna keep goin.]

[passingthrough]

[Even Nami's points sail!]

Yeah? Heard any good gossip lately?

[mikangirl]

Nope. Which probably makes my point. We've got nothing to talk about that's light and fluffy and fun.

[passingthrough]

We can't have that. Maybe we should make something up.

[mikangirl]

Piles of lighthearted gossip with no basis in fact? We could make it a Monday thing.

[passingthrough]

Perfect. I might actually start knowing things now that I'm bartending for the competition.

[mikangirl]

I'm shocked. Telling me this on my birthday, too!

[passingthrough]

I know. I'm basically the worst. Should we start a feud of some kind?

[mikangirl]

A very public one. It should last until some idiot tries to tell us we're both pretty.

[passingthrough]

That sounds specific. Are you speaking from personal experience here?

[mikangirl]

I'm speaking from personal knowledge of the idiocy of men.
