Fleetsgiving Mingle [ Open to All ]
Who: Everyone Who Wants to Come!
Broadcast: Nope
Action: Yes, Planetside
When: Sunday
An invitation was sent out via the network to all of the Fleet, inviting them to come together for a night of feasting, dancing, and games.
Kirk has managed to procure an event space for what he has dubbed Fleetsgiving. It sports a warm, interior space, decorated with tables, including two longer ones for food and drink. Along the far wall is a fireplace, crackling away for warmth, chairs set around and a table for fireplace games. The entire room glows with lights set in draped garlands, candles, and dim lights, warm and inviting and offering intimacy for those who wish to find it. Kirk would take credit for the decor, but no, it was the product of the owners of the event space. Probably just as well, to be honest.
An open space at the center is open for dancing at one's leisure, music drifting through the air - loud enough for dancers to sway to a beat, but not loud enough to make conversation impossible. But, who knows, maybe towards the latter half of the evening when everyone has drunk enough, there will be a dance contest. There might also be a karaoke contest, but, really, that's up to the people.
There is some prepared food - something that looks like a kind of poultry and something like meatballs in a bright orange sauce. Kirk can't vouch for what sort of animals they came from, but he can vouch for them being delicious. Bread, jam spreads, butter, local nuts and crackers. For desert there are what look like tiny tarts, and cookies dusted in a sweet pink powder. But while there is food provided, there is plenty of room for others to bring their favorites from home, or even their favorites from being here in the Fleet.
Nothing was spared for drinks either. Local wines are set out in their bottles, ready to pour, fizzy drinks in cans and punch bowls, harder options for those who wished them further down, and water and juice for those less inclined to imbibe. While there isn't much room for additions, they are welcome.
By the fire are a number of games laid out for choice - cards, some board games, and even a chess set, though it is a touch odd. Three boards, at varying heights, on a curved stand. The way the seats are arranged make it comfortable for many to play at once, or for only a few to play and many to gather by the fire and watch or idly chatter.
Come one, come all, and have a good time!
[ ooc: this is an open mingle post! Go ahead and make your own starters, tag around, and have a good time! Characters would be encouraged to bring their own food to add, or drinks if they so like, favorite games, etc. ]

[He mirrors the gesture and takes his shot as well. It's definitely alcohol. Really, the overwhelming flavor is 'booze' with a faint hint of... ginger?]
This, I think, would taste very good after a few more drinks.
no subject
The next one he pours is dark, almost oily, with a strange iridescence and a floral scent. ]
Need a few more then.
no subject
[Daryl's choice gets a thoughtful once-over before Pavel decides that, tonight, no alcohol is bad alcohol. He tips it slightly in Daryl's direction and then drinks.]
no subject
Shit.
no subject
I second that 'shit.'
[He pours himself another shot of... whatever that was. For science.]
I will be taking a bottle of this with us when we leave this system.
no subject
Party's good for something.
no subject
Drinking is all that it's good for? The socializing and the dancing don't appeal to you?
[Of course he's teasing. No one who has met Daryl would think he was at a party because he wanted to chat and dance.]
no subject
Guess there's food, too.
no subject
[He likes Daryl's company, too, but he doesn't want to scare him off by saying so.]
