A Late Birthday Party / MAY 26, 2063 Night

[therealbrianna]

[ 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.

[ Deirdra's around the place, trying to get a few familiar faces drunk. She's loosened up A LOT since their early days and now she's comfortable with socializing, getting to know people, being amongst the crowd... She doesn't know the celebrant much. She's Gideon's student though, and from what she's heard, she seems like a nice girl.

She has a few bottles of hard liquor in her hands and a sharp eye for vulnerable targets.

Yes, everything in life is a battle. ]

[icarusalsoflew]

[And have a familiar hand snagging one of those bottles, cracking it open, and bring it up to this one's lips.]

You look like you're out to kill somebody, Dee.

[inqdeirdra]

[ Since nobody else would even dare steal something from her like that...

Okay fine, she doesn't mind. It's a party.

She grins at Hikaru. ]

If by kill somebody you actually mean alcohol poisoning... [ A flash of mischief in her eyes. ]

Hey, can you blame me? I miss this.

[icarusalsoflew]

Hey, I wasn't saying anything. It HAS been a while for you guys.

[Casting a glance in Gideon's direction, then back to Deirdra.]

It's nice to see the both of you here.

[inqdeirdra]

[ She takes the bottle from Hikaru and in turn, drinks directly from it, then wipes her mouth with her jacket sleeve.

Some things never change. ]

Yeah, it has. Nice to take a break once in a while. Nothing like kids to remind you of the good old days.

[ By kids, she meant the celebrant, her blade, all the younger hunters... ]

[icarusalsoflew]

[Chuckling at that.]

Tell me about it. They're a pretty interesting bunch.

because necessary.

[artedelrumore]

[Have one proud husband watching his wife at work from a distance, Dee.

He'd be with you, yanno, if walking was a little easier.]

O3O HUBBY

[inqdeirdra]

[ Aaand have one wife saunter over to Gideon and sit down beside him, taking a step back and appreciating her... handiwork. ]

Looking comfy, dear.

WAIFU /o/

[artedelrumore]

I'm quite comfy, yes.

[Smiling, and kissing her cheek.]

[inqdeirdra]

[ Leaning back to cozy up to Gideon with a smile on her face. She kisses him back on the cheek. ]

Nice to take a break, hm?

[artedelrumore]

Very. It's been a while, hasn't it?

[Stretching an arm out over the top of the booth so that he can bring his wife closer.]

[atlas_shrugged]

[ Brig walks over with three Coronas (with lemon slices) in hand. ] Good evening, Deirdra. Good evening, Inquisitor Reyes. [ He nods at Gideon and offers two of the bottles to them ] Wasn't sure if I should get hard liquor, so I went with beer. [ Beer is always a good choice ]

[inqdeirdra]

[ Giving Brig a small smile and a thank you. ]

I drink anything. I don't think you should be giving this one anything too strong. [ She's gesturing to her husband. ]

Or do anyway, I don't mind. It's always funny seeing him drunk.

[atlas_shrugged]

Beer it is, I guess. Although I'm up for getting other people other than your husband drunk. [ Brig chuckles. Brianna was already on her way. Kaz would likely follow. And where was Taning?? ] Seems like you've got several others from your blade here too. Planning on flooring them as well?

[inqdeirdra]

[ A small smile at that. ]

Probably, after we talk. IF I can get them all together, that is.

[atlas_shrugged]

I can do the rounds if you want, so that you don't have to leave your husband. I could tell them that you're looking for them, if I bump into them. [ Brigade takes a swig of beer. He doesn't really have anything else to do. Might as well get people drunk, or help people get people drunk. ]

[maggienificent]

[ Okay, so she's inclined to be something of a nuisance tonight. She has missed Haven.

Creeping behind the bar in her animal form and affectionately rubbing up against your leg like a cat Mama Dee.

And when she catches your eye, straight into your head because Mindspeech: ( Need an extra pair of hands? ) ]

[inqdeirdra]

[ Deirdra immediately recognizes the voice that spoke in her head. It's one of her favorite nieces, Maggie but shh don't tell the rest. She forcefully hands the bottles away to any nearby sucker before crouching down low and scratching Maggie behind her ear. ]

Hey you.

[maggienificent]

[ Pleased, sounds. Very pleased sounds.

And don't worry Mama Dee, she will never, ever tell.

( Hallo. I'm home now. Well, for awhile. Got a week before I hit the road again.

You sure you don't need an extra pair of hands behind the bar? )

She's seen you work. It's pretty amazing. ]

[inqdeirdra]

[ Smiling at Maggie. Yeah no, she's got this covered. Besides, she'd rather catch up with Maggie. She isn't home a lot, after all. ]

I'd rather you tell me all about the rides you've been on. Sounds fair?

[maggienificent]

[ Are you kidding. Very fair.

Gracefully climbing up on the bar counter now, and peering curiously at the people around before she turns her eyes back to you.

( It's mostly the usual though. Patrol here, sent there. Meet new people, cross paths with another squad and drink until dawn. )

She scratches idly at one ear. ( My people say hi, by the way. I should drag them over to your house sometime before we go. And it'll be cute to see them all so awkward around you again. )

Heh. ]

[duskrider]

[ He comes in late -- but this is okay. Because it means the party is swinging and everyone's more or less settled and that means the bar is not nearly as crowded as it would be if everyone was still trying to get themselves piss-faced drunk.

Moseying over now and leaning against the counter until you notice him, Deirdra. ]

[inqdeirdra]

[ Haven is packed, but that doesn't stop her from noticing a Calintz Duskrider slipping inside the club. She walks over to him with a smile, just as soon as she's poured some liquid courage straight in some kid's mouth. ]

No Rilea? [ Handing over the bottle to Calintz now. ]

[duskrider]

[ Grinning back at Deirdra as he graciously accepts that bottle -- has he ever told you how much he loves you, Dee? ]

Said she'd catch up in a bit. [ Nodding back to the kid. ] Kid need a boost from the gods of alcohol?

[inqdeirdra]

[ Holding back a mischievous laugh. ]

We all do, honestly.
