Who: captains and party crashers!
Broadcast: nup
Action: yes; tonight in the local dive Hange mentioned earlier. Get drunk! Play drunk games! Get to know each other! Mingle!
When: October 27th; late :}

[The bar Hange picked out is about typical for the planet: a little small, although big enough for the turnout Hange more or less expects, and clean albeit a little dingy and stained around the edges. At very least, all the stains have been scrubbed at thoroughly at some point in their history, and only the most stubborn and enterprising remain.

Stubborn and enterprising like the crew the bar will now entertain!

Captains, make your parent threads and tag around. Party crashers are also welcome.]

[Hange arrives first, as befitting the person who organized the whole thing... well, "organized" it. How much is there to do when the booze is free and the food isn't much to speak of?

She's kicking it at the bar, already tossing back alcohol. Her posture and her grin are relaxed, but her eyes are still canny. A little booze doesn't take the edge off a soldier like this one.]

[carreau]

[ And the worst captain ever is coming in and waving at her all happily and overexcitedly. The first party he's ever been invited to!!! ]

Ahaha, hi there~

[aberrant_type]

[Good lord, and look at her face. She actually looks happy to see him.]

Well, hello there! Henry, isn't it?

[carreau]

[ That's so kind of her.... ;; ]

Yes~ That's right!

[ He's got somewhat of a childish voice, high and lilting and definitely at odds with...most everything he says, really. ]

[birdsbirdsbirds]

[this motherfucker slides on up to the bar, right into a stool next to her. he looks so pleased to be here. his pre-game is strong.]

Hey. Slick idea.

[aberrant_type]

[Well... he could do worse than hitting on Hange??? Look at her gorgeous Cleopatra nose game. Anyway she grins sideways at him.]

Hello there, Robin. Glad you made it!

[birdsbirdsbirds]

[is he hitting on her, or is this just his natural state of being? MAYBE IT'S BOTH. whatever the answer, he's quick to get comfortable, sitting sideways with one arm on the bar to prop his head up.]

It did not exactly disadvantage me to show up, Hange. I'm happy to get to know my fellow captains a little better.

[carreau]

[ Be very afraid. Not because he's drinking, but because he's here. And if you've talked to him at all, he will be super friendly.

Let's all be friends here, captains! ]

[sugoooi]

[ NOT YOU AGAIN.... ]

[carreau]

Wow~ I didn't think I'd see you again!

[sugoooi]

Y, yeah...me neither. [ Actually it was more he hoped he never would again, but... ]

[birdsbirdsbirds]

[yeah, you know what? when Robin gets there and spots Henry, it takes him a couple of seconds for it to finally click...

but then he waltzes right over and plants his hands on his shoulders and stares really intently into his face.]

Wait, you're a captain?

[it may be worth noting that he kind of smells like a bar himself.]

[carreau]

Yes~ It's fun, if I get to do things like this more!

[ He uh. Has also been drinking. Though he doesn't have much of a filter or any social skills to start with so...he seems pretty normal. ]

[birdsbirdsbirds]

[it's probably for the best. Robin might not have noticed a change anyway.]

Wow. Your ship is doomed.

[sugoooi]

[ This is officially the most awkward. It has to be. This whole place is full of people older than him and he's like, literally the only teenager here. In fact he's sure he's the youngest and there is just all sorts of stuff about this places that screams YOU'RE GROUNDED.

So just...don't mind him....awkwardly standing off to the side here this guy is so not ready to be a captain someone help ]

[aberrant_type]

[You know, she's just going to come on over and check in... and he looks pretty young, so on a hunch:]

Is this Sam?

[sugoooi]

[ He jumps a bit when she addresses him, reflexively standing up a whole lot straighter like he's just been caught doing something he shouldn't. He should recognize her right away from the video feed but he's dumb and just blurts out; ]

Y-yes! Ma'am! I'm sorry!

[aberrant_type]

[All right, she takes pity...] This is Hange! We spoke about this little gathering, remember?

[birdsbirdsbirds]

[catches sight of him from across the bar... squints...

and then like a million years later, he finally remembers--]

Hey! You're that kid!

[...yep, he might be a little drunk right now.]

[sugoooi]

[ Which of course makes Sam jump because he figures this is it, this is where he is going to get arrested and escorted home to the most Disappoint Parents Ever. ]

M, me?!

[birdsbirdsbirds]

Yeah, I've seen you over the network.

[he stops being surprised and starts being... confused? his words are a little slurry. Sam's... probably not in trouble. Robin ain't getting up or anything.]

What're you doing here?

[onlyanapple]

[Crowley is still not enthralled with his 'Captain' title, but he likes the resignation paperwork less, so here he is. He's largely keeping to himself in a quiet corner, a nice pile of drinks set up around him.]

[aberrant_type]

[She's sliiiiiiiding in next to him.]

Good evening, there.

[onlyanapple]

[NO HE WILL REMAIN MISERABLE.]

Here I am. I hope you're happy with yourself.

[aberrant_type]

I'm very happy that you made it! Crowley, was it?
