Dancing All Night

Who: Everyone
What: A slumber party at the Observatory so the Heroes can experience something nice for once.
Where: Old Observatory
When: Night of May 12th - Morning of May 13th
Warnings: If your character comes, there's a huge change they'll catch the sickness from someone else who's infected but doesn't show the symptoms. Duster will have many regrets in the future.

[All those that had been invited to the Observatory tonight would see all the windows on the bottom floors lit up before sundown. Duster and Zelda had spent most of today setting up bedding and rearranging the furniture in preparation, and then Duster had to run back home to change into his new suit.

There were multiple rooms with lights set up. One has a corner turned into a makeshift stage where musicians could perform. Two had tables of food. Several rooms were left alone for partygoers to have private moments (Tamekichi suggested that). There was also a box of beer bottles as a sad attempt at a bar, with an empty bottle marking the area where party games were to be played, Spin the Bottle included (all that was Tamekichi's suggestion, too).

Duster greets the arrivals at the door with a soft smile, wearing a periwinkle suit, a white dress shirt, a red shit, and black dress shoes.

Welcome to Club Ixen! It's time we had some fun.

[Santa gives her a quizzical look.] Is anybody gonna just lend me their instrument? I don't know how to play. I might mess it up.

[From what he understands, musicians are protective of their instruments. The only thing Santa actually knows how to play is a grossly out-of-tune piano.]

Any volunteers?

[Note- whenever Santa is able to procure an instrument, he will strum out a terrible rendition of 'Santa Claus is Coming to Town', just plucking random strings in lieu of knowing how to actually play it.]

[Rialynn looks around too. Santa is clearly a master of playing the chirping crickets anyway.]

You can play my lute, if you like.

[And the song is terrible, of course, but there's still something sort of delightful nonetheless. He doesn't look the slightest bit embarrassed either. Rialynn grins when he finishes and applauds his...courage?]

[Shame? What's that? There's nothing embarrassing about singing a classicly creepy Christmas song, especially when you have zero fucks to give.]

[When he finishes, he hands the lute back to Rialynn. He doesn't think he broke it or anything.]


I know you're probably speechless in awe of my musical talent. Totally worth spending a dare on, right?

Yeah, I had fun.

[She really did. And she takes her instrument back with a nod of thanks. It remains in the same condition in which she gave it to him.]

[Also, she doubts there's much that could embarrass him. Even if there is a dare that she thinks would get him good, the danger is that he can flip that right back on her.]
