A Late Birthday Party / MAY 26, 2063 Night


[ After a short "vacation" at Tokyo, Brianna sends a text to her friends. It's a general invitation that stretches from her blade mates to her mentors, to well, the whole of Netsach (as long as she knows them. Also extends to some Zangyaku friends). Of course, she asks her parents for permission first. ]
SENT: 03:00 PM

Hello friend! It would make me very happy if you could make it to Haven this Saturday to celebrate my 520th birthday. Drinks on me. :)

- OOC note: Feel free to tag in whenever you like, whatever you like. 
- May 21, 2063: Date of text
- May 26, 2063: Date of party

[ He raises his glass to toast his boss in Netsach, hoping that she'll clink her drink to his ] I really do wonder, Ma'am. [ He says with friendly sarcasm and a resigned smile on his face. ]

I'll do my best. It's a nice, new battlefield, clubbing. [ He smiles at her. ] I'll leave you two to your things. But feel free to pull me in for "backup", if my Blademates fall in your sights? [ He chuckles. ]

And does the source of Miss Leitman's terrible habits not wonder if he should assess his own performance?

[Saying that oh-so-casually as she's taking a drink.]

[It's no skin off of his back.

...Okay, not really.]


Tala was both our daughters because she came around at a particular time. [When they were actually together. When it really looked like it was them for good.] Brianna's case is different.

[Does he need to specifically spell out why? Hopefully not.]

[ She was about to protest the drink in front of her, but she sees Cisco. There might be a sigh of relief.

She glances back toward the last kid, frowns, then takes the drink Cisco placed in front of her and halves it in one go. Mmm. ]


I would just like to know what it would take for boys like that to stop. Short of killing one of them, at least.

[ She smiles. ]
bostova: (61 ☭)

she's cute uwu

[personal profile] bostova 2014-02-22 08:17 am (UTC)(link)
I do not think that will be good for everyone's health. [ She smiles, though. Because that's so nice of you, Brianna, but you're supposed to be the one being entertained here, not Yulia. ]

[personal profile] ktotheatothez 2014-02-22 08:17 am (UTC)(link)
Excellent~!

[Their Mai-Tais arrive and he toasts her.]

Here's to the night and to you, Bri.

[personal profile] bostova 2014-02-22 08:19 am (UTC)(link)
[ She's not used to being complimented, so she'll just... be polite and smile. Awkwardly. ]

Thank you.

Well... Yulia. I saw Rethe near the DJ Booth, getting ready to spin, which will be amazing. I really hope he uses that Fall Out Boy mix.

[Is Kaz a Rethe Kyriff fanboy? Yes, yes he is.]

Aunt D? So I guess maybe Uncle Gid's around too.

[ She nods, agreeing. ]

She is a force of nature on her own.

[ Oh hey topic change!!! ]

I am enjoying my stay there. [ Drink. ] And you, how is the Brotherhood?
kinesthesia: (093.)

because reasons

[personal profile] kinesthesia 2014-02-22 10:32 am (UTC)(link)
[ She chuckles at that. ] But you've been to bars, right?

It's mostly the same -- the music might be louder, the crowd significantly younger, but if you're not exactly there to play the games children play at that age, it's fairly standard.

[ Canting her head to one side, an offer that he join her. ] I'm on watch-duty. And unlike Cen and my daughter who prefer to do the rounds, I've decided to park myself here for the night.

[ It's a good spot. Gives her the perfect view of everything she needs to keep an eye on. ]
kinesthesia: (023.)

[personal profile] kinesthesia 2014-02-22 10:37 am (UTC)(link)
[ Oy vey. ]

She really is. [ Still keeping half her attention on the two girls. Just in case.

And then, softly: ]
Eli not coming tonight?
kinesthesia: (052.)

[personal profile] kinesthesia 2014-02-22 10:44 am (UTC)(link)
[ Noting that as well. Shaking her head as the door closes shut behind Alistair. ]

I wish I could say that I'm surprised he's here because this really isn't his thing but-- [ eyes scanning the area now, sighting Hikaru and Maggie and a bottle of booze ( ah, well ) and then following that up by hunting up Tala's familiar form in the crowd ] --Nope. Not surprised.

[ Not surprised in the least. ]
kinesthesia: (022.)

[ Smiling back at Yulia and chuckling a little at that statement. ] Some of them do understand the meaning of "no," but on the off-chance that they get particularly pushy, a little show of fang and the threat of bite usually gets the job done.

[ Nodding quietly at the general direction of Yulia's phone. ] Everything alright? By my count, your blade is missing a member.
profaci: (sometimes it isn't easy.)

[personal profile] profaci 2014-02-22 05:30 pm (UTC)(link)
Heh. Still, it's kind of nice.

[And the precise meaning of that statement might be written in how Cen's eyes are following all of their old comrades, their superiors. All of them in one place again, in spite of everything.]
thetalavega: (come to me / in the cold cold night.)

[personal profile] thetalavega 2014-02-22 05:40 pm (UTC)(link)
No, not this time. Lots of work to get done, and honestly? This really isn't his scene.

[Sigh. Husbando, why.]

[ She looks at her phone again, still no replies. Tsk. She taps the side of its case, pondering sending another slightly irritated message, but pockets it instead. ]

He is probably too busy with Rhiannon Group to party. [ Not bitter at all. ]

[personal profile] atlas_shrugged 2014-02-23 02:08 am (UTC)(link)
Well, here's hoping you still give her a chance. You know, like learning to tolerate Haven. And maybe finding out that she's really a lot like King's Rest. [ Brig looks away and back to the street. She's a good kid. And you're a nice guy. Might be good for each other. He thinks to himself. ]
atlas_shrugged: (Default)

[personal profile] atlas_shrugged 2014-02-23 02:24 am (UTC)(link)
I believe he assesses his performance everyday, Ma'am. [ He smiles at her ] Just that development on the assessment results has been slow. [ His smile slowly fades. He lights up a cigarette and takes a long, deep drag ]

The hardest habits to let go are those which were made to remedy something in the past. Good before, but bad once what they're remedying isn't there anymore. [ He's trying not to fall into contemplative Brig mode. Failing. Doesn't bother to fake a smile on his face. Liandrin likely wouldn't appreciate that anyway ]

You suggested a remix of an old classic to Inquisitor Kyriff [ Honorific. Because Brig. And he hasn't yet ever had the pleasure of speaking to Rethe ]
atlas_shrugged: (Default)

[personal profile] atlas_shrugged 2014-02-23 04:04 am (UTC)(link)
[ Brig takes the offer and leans on the bar beside her ] Just pubs and bar's like King's Rest before I joined Netsach. Usually I'd just go in alone to try to feel what I lost after WWII. [ He remembers the conversation he had with Kasumi at the onsen ] I don't think I've ever played those games children play, Ma'am. Not quite sure I can or want to either.
takeitinstride: (and we fall softly.)

[personal profile] takeitinstride 2014-02-23 06:35 am (UTC)(link)
Ah.

[Leaning back, letting her fingers slide over the rim of her glass. Assessing herself now.]

Well, "hard" is nowhere near impossible. Practice makes perfect.

[Keep going or die trying, right?]
mordechai: (give me everything you've got.)

[personal profile] mordechai 2014-02-23 06:43 am (UTC)(link)
[Alistair says nothing to that: his response is in a slight shrug of his shoulders and a noncommittal sound.

He doesn't have anything against Brianna, but he doesn't particularly care for her at the moment either. We'll see.]
atlas_shrugged: (Default)

[personal profile] atlas_shrugged 2014-02-23 12:19 pm (UTC)(link)
Copy, Ma'am. He won't make the claim that he is. [ Brigade smiles a bit as he says that, swirling the beer in his beer bottle, his expression one that's thoughtful ] But he doesn't believe in impossible either.
atlas_shrugged: (Default)

[personal profile] atlas_shrugged 2014-02-23 12:30 pm (UTC)(link)
[ It's enough for Brig. Brianna's one of the good things that walked into his life. He hopes she can be the same for Alistair too. ]

I'm going inside, sir. Just tap me if you want company in some of the "quieter" spots. [ He kills his cigarette butt and gives Alistair a friendly pat on the shoulder as he turns around and heads back for the entrance ]
