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.

[Rialynn squints at the picture. Then blinks. And looks at Santa.]

I don't really see it.

[She rubs the back of her head, wondering if this is a good thing.]

[Santa starts to trace different parts of the picture, explaining what they are as he indicates them.]

Clawed arm, wing, mandible, weird leg appendages. It's pretty horrifying, even in abstract form.

[Yep, totally not a dog. Not even a little bit. Be terrified, Rialynn. Dwell in fear and awe of the mighty Funyarinpa.]

[The effect he has on her is obvious. Her furrowed brow slowly rises, and confusion transforms into horror, as some of the color drains from her face.]

That's...!

[There are no words. It's too scary! It's just a dog.]

You've seen it with your own eyes?!
21stcenturyguy: (creeped out)

Oh, no way. I hear if you look at it directly, you go crazy. I got a picture of it through the morphogenetic fields. One day, I just woke up and I knew about the Funyarinpa. That's how it works.

[He shudders, all about the dramatic effect.] That's how it gets you. [OOooOooHHHHHhhh, so spooky.]

Can that happen here?

[She glances nervously at the others to see if they're as uneasy about this as she is.]

I mean...the way this place works, there aren't any fields for it to inhabit.

[And she's totally thinking of the kind of fields where grass and wildflowers grow, because she's never heard of it used in another way.]

Yeah, dude. The morphogenetic fields are in invisible fields that allow people to share knowledge. They're nowhere, but everywhere. They're beyond our understanding...and the Funyarinpa uses them like a secret passageway into your mind.

[Rialynn shivers. She can feel goosebumps prickling up and down her arms, and she does her best to rub them down. Fat chance. Eventually she looks away in discomfort, unwilling to discuss the subject any further. He certainly fulfilled his dare. And now Rialynn doesn't have to worry about being pranked for falling asleep first, because she isn't sure she can sleep tonight.]
