All work and no play makes you a dull boy! [Open Post/Event]

[expendable_mind]

Who: Splicer, and anyone ever! Yes that means YOU!
Where:  Hunter's Pad
Summary:  Party till you drop, release some stress, just have fun!
Warnings: Open party event, discretion is advised! Excessive partying

After the announcement over the network, Splicer set off to break out the snacks he had stored, the drinks and set the out on the club floor. He wanted people to have fun and enjoy some care free time. Morale had been fluctuating as of late and a good head kept the troops going in times of strain. What better way to pick up morale than a good fun time with friends and just kicking back and doing your thing?

That's why he was now occupying his booth and taking any requests for the people that came by, greeting and waving at fellow crew and friends. He intended to make this as fun as possible for each and everyone. Good times seemed to be scarce in the future to come, so he'd do his best to make this one of the good ones.

[[OOC: Open event post, feel free to post an open thread for your character, or post to someone who's already there! You can make requests at the DJ booth, and you can choose to interact with Splicer as well, just make sure you put it in the header. Other than that, just have fun!]]

Ronnae - Open!

[shiest_sunbeam]

If there was one thing that one of the shiest crew members loved doing, and doing it happily without thinking about being embarrassed was dancing. She loved it, everything about it made her feel confident and smile.

It was no surprised that she incorporated dance into her fighting style, and even that was a sight to behold. But right now, this wasn't the battlefield, this was a moment to have fun and just be herself.

You'll find the half-orc girl swaying her hips and shaking her curves to the beat of a particularly hot party beat and simply enjoying herself.

Re: Ronnae - Open!

[anwei]

Dancing under gravity, well, Anwei supposed it did have its points. Not nearly as tiring, for one thing; and you could put down your drink without it floating away.

She was looking for familiar faces, and she saw one: gleaming green under swirling red hair. Billy's gi-, no, Billy's bride. Well, she should go offer her congratulations.

She stepped-skipped between people to get to her, moving reflexively to the beat. "Hey there! I remember you, you're Ronnae from Engineering. Glad to see you're still here!"

[shiest_sunbeam]

Ronnie stopped her swirl and sway from the dancing and slowed to a softer beat as she turned to face the familiar voice. At seeing Anwei, Ronnae smiled and gave a cheerful greeting.

"Hey, yep, still here! How are you? It's been a while huh?"

[anwei]

"It's been months, from the sounds of it. I missed a lot." She made an apologetic gesture with both hands. "Including a certain wedding, apparently. Congratulations!"

[shiest_sunbeam]

Ronnae's face lit up in that usual embarrassed blush and she laughed lightly, "I y-yeah haha, a lot has h-happened, and t-thank you! I w-wish everyone would have been able to be there. It was pretty incredible."

[anwei]

"An incredible couple deserves an incredible wedding," she said, doffing an imaginary hat in Ronnae's direction. "Next time we have shore leave, I'll see if I can't find you both an appropriate present."

She was definitely short of potential gifts at the moment. Gogglefruit candy didn't seem quite serious enough; besides it made your eyes water.

"How are things in Engineering? I heard a lot of department heads are gone; who did you lose?"

[shiest_sunbeam]

Ronnae's face could not get any redder and she was suddenly really glad about the change of subject!

"Oh, ah, well, there's been a lot of repoddings as of late." she said looking down as the blush slowly faded away. "Billy actually has a detailed list of who, what, and when since he's been investigating. He'd probably be more accurate as to everything involving that since you know how things can be weird in this ship."

Ahri~ Open!

[9tailedtemptress]

This... This was exciting! The lights! The sounds! The feeling of this all! It was new and it was something she wished she had discovered before! Ahri was feeling amazing and she could feel her body moving by itself to the beat of the song currently playing.

You could find the foxy girl moving to the beat, her tails swaying in all directions playfully dancing almost of their own accord. She put her whole body into the swing of things, she was enjoying this thoroughly.

Re: Ahri~ Open!

[acornprincess]

Sally had come to investigate the noise. She'd been trying to find a quiet dwelling and workspace for herself, and this was certainly not it! If only she had thought to check the omnicoms ahead of time and avoid the area.

But here she was, watching the swaying on the dance floor with open curiosity (and pity). What was this? Why were people so frivolous?

"I can't believe you have time for this," she said in open awe from her spot just off the dance floor.

[9tailedtemptress]

Ah a familiar face! Ahri's face beamed cheerily, some might even say mischievously, as she glided gracefully over to Sally.

"I can't believe anyone who wouldn't~" Ahri mused with a light giggle.

"Creatures all need to set aside some time to simply enjoy life and the blessing they posses by having it~ I am more than happy to partake in such an activity." Ahri smiled as she finally stopped close to Sally with a friendly smile.

"Tell me, do you not enjoy this sort of activity?"

[acornprincess]

Sally was out of her element, that much was certain. She watched the other dancers with growing apprehension, wondering just what was going on with everyone. How could it be so...easy? It was as if nothing was wrong, as if their whole worlds hadn't been upended.

It was making the best out of a bad situation, she knew about all that, but...how? Sally was just too far gone in worry to see it.

"I've never had the time. And really, do any of you? Don't you have training drills?"

[9tailedtemptress]

"Aww don't be like that. Surely you must have had time to enjoy yourself. If not, it's never too late to have fun~" She mused, smiling over at Sally.

"We have those often enough, there's also the sensoriums which are often used for training by the crew on a constant basis. Some practically live there! I don't pay much mind to such however, it feels draining and depressing. I prefer being at ease, and alert and alive~ Once you've been in a war for long, all of them seem the same."

She couldn't quite remember if she had mentioned her war in the past conversation. Truthfully Ahri didn't like revealing much about herself at all, preferring to keep herself as mysterious as possible but the environment made her a bit more trusting.

[acornprincess]

Sally'd known of those places from her careful study of the datatbases, but she was suspicious. Simulations could easily be dangerous, and she wasn't going to subject herself to that without a real reason.

"But you can't let your guard down," Sally added, "because that's when they're going to catch you and do their worst. Always."

Maria - Open

[17thangel]

Maria knew almost nothing of dancing, she heard it was popular in balls once long ago and she read about it in a book but that was moot. She heard an ace pilot was going to be here and that was something worth looking into.

The problem is when she started trying to cross the dance floor in her search, other people were dancing, and the little girl was quickly overwhelmed and flailing by all this.

[yourbelovedfuture]

Maria might have been getting overwhelmed, but to someone like Mashu, this was so much fun! Then again, floating around and over the people present did make it a lot easier!

Seeing the other girl seemingly a bit frustrated made Mashu float over and wave, "Oooooy!" she said in greeting.

[17thangel]

Hi! Can you see uh... How to get out of this?

[yourbelovedfuture]

Yup! Just follow me! Or I can carry you to the clear area too!

[17thangel]

Lead the way! I uh.. Can't really see over people!

[yourbelovedfuture]

Hee, okay! Just follow! [Mashu floated a little lower to her level and pushed and shoved people lightly out of the way so they could make their way through!]

Open

[piggyback_ride]

Against her better judgement...here she was.

In public. In club, even.

Her head is throbbing in pain and she's noticeably fidgeting every once in awhile, but she's still making an attempt to casually sip her drink. If only her hand weren't shaking quite so much.
(Reply to this)

[expendable_mind]

The throbbing pain gets fainter and fainter as the sounds of the multitude of thoughts grow dimmer and dimmer and that very familiar feeling seems to slightly take over her head.

You're someone I didn't expect hon. But I can't say that the sigh isn't pleasant in all regards. Shoulda called in advance, would have set up something for ya. How have you been? Haven't seen much of you as of late... holed up I guess?

[piggyback_ride]

She lets out a sigh of relief and actually manages a smile.

"Oh, I like to get out every now and then...see what the babbleroar has to offer. In any case, I'll have to (properly) thank you for toning things down for my (poor, abused) mind. I'm willing to bet you don't spoil your other patrons like this," she teased.

[expendable_mind]

"Ah naw, that's unique and just for you." he voiced with a wink.

"How have you been holding up? You've been keeping track of what's been going on right?" he asked curiously.

[piggyback_ride]

"Ah, I feel so (very) special, then!"

With a mental sigh, she places her glass on the table and turns to fully face Splicer. "I have and...it's been terribly interesting (and just plain terrible). I'd be interested to hear your take on it, though...not here, of course."

[expendable_mind]

"Pick a time and a place and I'll be all yours. Splicer responded with a playful smirk.
