74 Godiva Street, AKA Tamsin and Death's Home Of More Alcohol Than Last Year, Saturday Evening

[fjordicswagger]

Okay, this party had been born out of actual need (for alcohol and getting laid) last year; this year, those factors weren't as urgent for Tamsin, who figured she could always drop in on Jessica or Mike if the night was a spectacular failure

Arrive/Mingle

[fjordicswagger]

For showing up, delivering booze, and talking to each other in a neutral setting.

So far Tony's week had been a mixture of terrible and fun. And one instance of T'Challa not laughing at him in a way that implied he was being laughed at.

Jerk.

But Tony was there with a nice bottle of scotch that was probably going to end up chugged. He'd have to live with that on his conscience.

"Hey, Stark," Tamsin said, opening the door. "Good you made it."

Good his expensive bottle of scotch made it.

[imafuturist]

"Mayor," he replied cheerfully. "I do love your parties."

All two of them. But still.

Drink! Where People Can See You!

[fjordicswagger]

The central area of Tamsin's refurnished storefront house is covered in pillows for people to sit on. The table of drinks is nearby, as are the snacks, and the lights are on.

Sarah was just fine with sitting a little off to the side of the well-lit area, with a beer in hand.

Well. As happy as she was with anything this week. She wasn't even sure why she'd shown up, to be honest.

"Hey, I haven't seen you since the picnic," Fred noted as a greeting. "You're looking even better tonight."

Re: Drink! Where People Can See You!

[electrocynic]

"It's because there's a fuck-ton of pollen in the air," Sarah rasped.

Not that she minded the compliment. She just liked being difficult.

Eat! If Actual Food Arrives!

[fjordicswagger]

This isn't a potluck, but who knows, maybe someone will bring something more sophisticated than Doritos.

Didi wasn't much of a chef, but she managed a plate of slice-and-bake cookies. That counted as more sophisticated than Doritos, right? (Nobody tell her if it didn't.)

She hovered by the food most of the evening, vainly trying to keep glitter away from anything edible.

Re: Eat! If Actual Food Arrives!

"Glitter duty?" Jessica checked. "You're fighting the good fight."

Re: Eat! If Actual Food Arrives!

[living_endless]

"You have to have goals," Didi laughed. "Hey, Jessica. Thanks for coming."

Party! With Games!

[fjordicswagger]

In case anyone decides to kick off a game of Spin the Bottle or I Never.

Make Out! In The Shadows!

[fjordicswagger]

There's a bunch of darker alcoves in the room that still have pillows, but are largely out of sight or badly lit.

Or you can sneak into one of the smaller rooms upstairs, but Tamsin and Death's bedrooms are locked shut.

Re: Make Out! In The Shadows!

Tony found a place to only half sulk in the shadows because his one date this week ended without sex because it might kill him.

Okay, it was a full on sulk.

Re: Make Out! In The Shadows!

"Are you brooding at a party?"

Look, Sarah was prone to ending up at least visiting the darker parts of the party venue just because she was antisocial by nature.

Also, her on-island bestie was in another corner brooding away, so it wasn't like she was very judgmental.

Re: Make Out! In The Shadows!

[imafuturist]

Yes.

"I'm in a dark corner at what is basically a sex party."
