Birthday Bash [Open!]

[thetaintedsorrow]

Who: Chuuya Nakahara (thetaintedsorrow) & various!
What: Chuuya’s birthday party!
When: Takes place on the 29th but I’m putting it up early because reasons!
Where: The furry mansion and Thesa Station!
Warning(s): Possible nsfw, but it’ll be marked!



[OOC: Feel free to post your own top level for a mingle, or just a closed thread with Chuuya!]

I. Lead a Horse to Water (or Booze) [Closed to Diva]

[Chuuya has no idea that his birthday is going to be anything special this year. Of course Atsushi is a nice guy, so maybe he has some kind of surprise planned, but Chuuya isn’t expecting anything but maybe a night of drinking. Nothing too crazy.

He certainly doesn’t expect to be called outside by Diva, who seems to want him to come along somewhere. He’s got Apollo riding on his shoulder, who seems just as curious as his master.]

Uh, hi. What’s up?

II. You Aint’t Seen Nothing Yet

[Turns out there totally was a party planned! Not only that, but Atsushi had gone through the effort of building Chuuya a lavish bar in the living room of the mansion!! Needless to say Chuuya had been really fucking surprised, and of course that’s where he’s going to be spending the majority of his evening. If you gift him a bottle of booze he’ll be ecstatic, and once he’s amassed a nice variety, he’ll be mixing up all kinds of drinks at the bar, showing off different mixology skills with a flair only Chuuya can manage.

If you want to watch him he’ll happily show off, and if you have any requests, chances are he can grant them! He’ll be happy to chat!]

III. The Life of the Party

[You might also catch Chuuya in other places around the mansion! Maybe he’s mingling with the crowd with Apollo on his shoulder, who will happily flit over to you for attention. He could be in the kitchen stuffing his face with snacks before the cake is served. Maybe he’s just a bit tipsy and walking on the ceiling like a nerd. Or perhaps he’s out on the terrace, enjoying a drink as he gazes up at the stars.

Wherever you catch him, he’ll be in a good mood because of the party! Come say hi!]

IV. Pour One Out For Me

[Sometime after the party Chuuya will head up to Thesa Station to visit the pods as a sort of sentimental thing, and you’ll find him sitting with his legs sprawled out on the floor in front of two pods containing Mori Ougai and Kouyou Ozaki, two influential people in his life. He’s got a bottle of champagne and two glasses laid out, and he looks just a tiny bit wistful.

He misses his Mafia life, and this is one small way of showing it.

He pops open the bottle and pours the champagne before holding out a glass to his company.]

Toast to the past?

V. Wildcard!

[Anything goes! If you wanna plot I’m over at arcanestardust!]

Comments

Shell Overlord | OTA!

[steponme]

1. General Mingling!
[Admittedly, Shell was here more because he was invited along by Reign. He's not exactly sure he'd call himself and Chuuya friends yet, but they got along well enough. His last "party" experience didn't exactly end on a high note, but this time was different. This was a party for humans! ...er, mostly humans! He's never been in a situation like this before, where vampires weren't controlling or otherwise lording themselves over every human Art in attendance. But he's no shy wallflower, and will be around most of the evening making small talk... just don't bother offering him any food, because he can't exactly eat any of it.]

2. #partyhard
[Or maybe you found him after he's had a few drinks and is... pretty drunk. Pretty much instantly, really, seeing as he had basically no tolerance whatsoever. By now, he's sitting on a couch in the corner of the room, spacing out as the party carries on around him -- but he doesn't look like he's having a bad time. Still, if someone sits next to him, they might find themselves with a vampire just casually leaning against them, as if falling asleep. #partyhard indeed.]

3. Wildcard
[Make up a wacky scenario and I'll roll with whatever!]

For Chuuya!

[steponme]

[Perhaps unlike some of their guests, Shell felt far more at home in a big house like this than the small living space he shared with Reign. Which is probably why is feels at ease exploring, slipping into the kitchen to get a glass of water and-- and finding Chuuya hiding out in the kitchen snacking.]

[...pfft.]

You're not going to have any room for your birthday cake if you keep that up.

Elliot Nightray | OTA

[yelliot]

PROHIBITION

<sub>[Elliot's never been exactly fond of drinking. It's not like he's never had a sip of alcohol before in his life. Being the son of a duke and forced to go to fancy dinner parties and other soirees had given him the chance to try a glass of wine here and there. In fact, this whole little setup of a party reminds him of one of those very parties, even if the actual people in attendance are nothing like the crowd he'd expect.

Atsushi's place is...really nice. It's comfortable and quite big - a far cry from his current living conditions. He's let Gilbert wander off on his own to attempt to mingle as Elliot moves to set down the bottle of wine they'd brought together as an offering. Hopefully Chuuya'd like it.

So far though, it looks like there's already quite a collection of wine stacked on the counter top of the bar. Great...]</sub>

...Is there really just alcohol to drink in this place or what?

_{[He's not actually asking anyone, but Elliot's loud and so it might seem like he is.]}

EYE OF THE TIGER

<sub>[Elliot might not enjoy parties, but there's one thing that will always make him happy - cats. He remembers this little guy from when he first arrived and while the tiger cub is a bit bigger, he's still small and oh so fluffy. Any worries Elliot might've had have melted away for the moment as he pets the little creature. He's completely and utterly blissed out, probably the happiest that anyone's ever seen him if they do catch him cooing to Daifuku.

Don't...mind him as be baby talks the little guy, okay? Let him live.]</sub>

Ahh...you're sooo cute, aren't you?

PIANO TUNES

<sub>[Elliot, he feels, has struck gold.

When he wanders away from the main hustle and bustle of the party and into one of the side rooms, only to find a grand piano, he feels as if he's, well, died and gone to heaven. Maybe he shouldn't say died, since those are complicated feelings about his mortality he's still trying to digest and all that...but you get the point. He wastes no time sitting down at the piano bench, running his fingers over the keys. This is probably the nicest piano he's had access to since he woke up here and he's relishing in it.

It doesn't take him long to begin to play a favourite melody, the arrangement a more softer version than what he's used to. Of course no one here would recognize it, save for Gilbert (who is probably crying somewhere or drinking or both), but it's a beautiful song none the less.

If the sound of piano keys draws you into the room it might take Elliot a moment to even notice you're there. He's fully engrossed in the melody he's playing, expression one of longing as he mutters to himself.]</sub>

...When are you going to wake up again?

The most embarrassing option, obviously

[thetaintedsorrow]

[Now there’s someone that Chuuya hadn’t expected to see at his party.]

Having fun?

[Chuuya chuckles as he bends down next to Elliot to pet Daifuku. Meet Daifuku’s second dad, Elliot.

He won’t judge you for cooing at him. Probably.]

Didn’t think I’d see you here.

bar~

[eaudevamp]

[ Reign had brought along a gift for Chuuya, and it seemed most of everyone brought alcohol, just as Atsushi had suggested. He stopped by the bar and placed his own addition on the counter, shifting his attention to the familiar voice.

Oh look, it was Mr. Cat-Lover! ]

There's probably some food in the kitchen if you're hungry.

[ He didn't expect to see Elliot here. Then again, perhaps he was a friend of Chuuya's, and besides, Atsushi seemed to be friends with everyone on Nysa. ]

a soosh

[gekkajuu]

1. 4chuu(ne)

[Atsushi wasn't nervous at all, during all of his planning, but now that the day has come, he can barely stand the final moments of ever-rising tension. He hangs around in the hall as he waits for Chuuya to come home, occasionally diving into the kitchen to see what he can do to prepare for the party. He can't find much focus for that, though... By now, he just wants this over with!

He's put a big, pink bow on the living room door (it has some claw marks here and there, thanks to Daifuku), and the bar is all set up. It's just a matter of waiting for Chuuya to get here... and hoping he's not blind drunk or anything.]

2. OTA

[Come say hi to the co-host? Atsushi will be milling about, trying to provide everyone with snacks; he mostly leaves the drinks to Chuuya. He can definitely be persuaded to stop for some friendly conversation, though - and if he doesn't know you yet, he'll at least come say hi.]

Chuu chuu

[thetaintedsorrow]

[Being dragged around by Diva would wear anyone out, but luckily Chuuya is resilient, and he’d also managed not get wasted before the party. He’d rather not leave his life in Diva’s hands, after all, even if he’s pretty talented at drunken fighting. The second he enters the mansion he’s already surprised, because he hadn’t been expecting a party...

And there’s a (slightly clawed up, cute) giant pink bow on the living room door. What the...]

Atsushi...?

[He catches the guy as he darts back into the hall from...somewhere. He’s not stupid, he can tell there’s some kind of surprise waiting for him in the living room, and as much as he wants to bust open the door and see it, he supposes he can wait and see what Atsushi has in mind.]

What’s this?

[What does it look like, Chuu...]

[colorature]

_{[It's easy enough to find Atsushi and once the party is in full swing, Diva decides to hunt him down. With a confident stride and smile on her face, the chiropteran wastes no time in hurrying over to where he is. Hopefully Atsushi isn't holding anything when Diva goes in for a hug, arms squeezing around his middle as she slides up against him, cheek pressed into his chest.]}

I found you!

reign fear | ota

[eaudevamp]

[ a ]
[ Parties were quite the norm for a noble vampire like Reign, and he'd had his fair share of them in his old world. He didn't attend them often, more because he'd been exiled by his clan, and thus didn't have as much privilege. But this was the first birthday party he'd ever attended while on Nysa, and he was looking forward to enjoying it with Chuuya and his friends.

Of course, Reign had also brought his best buddy, Shell, along as well as Scorch, his tiny pet giraffe. If anyone would like to chat up with him, they were free to do so. Either that, or he would approach them with a smile, or a more enthusiastic wave if they were someone he recognise. ]

Having fun?

[ b ]
[ There was a piano!!! Reign hadn't seen one when he was here last. He sat on the stool and glanced at the monochromatic keys with interest. He didn't know how to play them, but that didn't stop Reign from pressing a few notes out of curiosity.

Hopefully anyone who sidle up wouldn't ask him to play a song, because Reign had no idea how piano keys work. ]

[ c ]
[ A little later, Reign would be in the kitchen looking for a bite. Atsushi had told him that he'd prepared his special brand of blood mochi, which he could find in the fridge. Maybe he should get Shell to try them.

If anyone were to enter the kitchen, Reign would glance up with a smile and a wave of his hand. ]

Oh, hi.

[ wildcard ]
[ Hit him up! ]

for chuuya

[eaudevamp]

[ Reign had seen Chuuya's powers before, so he knew the redhead could float. But walking upside down on the ceiling? That was a first.

Cue a lot a bit of fanboying here. ]

That's so cool!!! You're just like a bat walking upside down!

[ Sorry Chuuya... No offence. ]

[a] i hope you don't mind!

[versianvirtue]

[ It's Reign! She recognizes him from before and is delighted to find him a guest at the party, too. She exchanges waves with the same kind of enthusiasm. ]

Reign, hello! I have not been here long, but yes!

[ And then... how can you not notice a shetland giraffe in the room?! Scotch instantly wins her attention. She gasps, pointing at the spotted animal. She has never seen one in her life, for obvious reasons. She thinks she remembers what it is. ]

That's...! Is that a... a... giraffe?

[ Something about it seems... different... from what she understands about them. ]

William Twining | Makai Ouji: Devils and Realist

[notsolomon]

II-1

[William's invited himself to the party of this guy he doesn't know, just for the sake of seeing the mansion it's being hosted in. Quite smoothly done if he must say so. Normally he'd never do something so tacky, but normal rules of etiquette do not apply in this world, so he feels little shame right now. Especially when he can jealously explore this mansion.

It's so nice. And so unfair. The most unfair, but he's working well at hiding his sadness. Oh, how he misses his own mansion. So much.

But he's greeting you anyways, even if you're a new face, because he might as well meet some new people.]

II-2

[William had only meant to drink one glass, but some how that had turned into more and he's never had an especially high tolerance, so he's found the sitting room and is resting a spell.

Of course you are there and now you have to hear his loud opinions on things.]

And you know, of course, I don't get why that Voss fellow needs all those crystals! Highly suspicious! Clergymen are always like that though. The idiots.

[Are you going to engage with him? Or change the subject?]

Wildcard
[Come at me!]

II-2

[thetaintedsorrow]

[Ah, it’s this guy. Chuuya had seen him hovering around the bar, but hadn’t gotten around introducing himself yet. Of course he’d overheard those loud opinions, and of course he had to come investigate.]

Heh. Not afraid to speak your mind, huh? I like it.

[Chuuya will wander over and sit next to him whether he likes it or not.]

Never seen you before. Friend of Atsushi’s?

wildcard

[eaudevamp]

[ Guess who was surprised by William's presence. This vampire.

Reign came bounding over, smile on his face as he greeted the man. Compared to the last time they talked on Thesa Station, Reign was evidently more cheerful now. He may even have noticed that the blond man Reign often stood in front of at the stasis pod was also mingling around. That may have contributed to the smile on Reign's face. ]

William! It's nice to see you here.

Diva | OTA

[colorature]

FINGER FOODS

<sub>[It's been...awhile since Diva's attended an actual party. In fact, she's never really been allowed to go to one, not without a bunch of escorts to make sure she's on her best behaviour. While this may not exactly be a lavish sort of event, Atsushi's place is still a hell of a lot nicer than where she currently lives with Solomon. So, she's enjoying herself. The Chiropteran Queen has had her long black hair done, pulled back with a bow, her dress one of grey with black detailing. She's a lovely sight to behold but looks can be deceiving, especially when there's food involved.

Speaking of Solomon, she's wandered off from his side, leaving him by the newly furnished bar to seek out something far more to her taste. There are a bunch of little hors d'oeuvre set out for her to sample, and Diva being the glutton that she is wastes no time in doing so.

Various meats, little sausages and cheeses on crackers make their way past her lips as she munches away, deciding suddenly she wants to see just how many cubes of cheese she can fit inside her mouth all at once. She looks a bit like a chipmunk, cheeks stuffed and fangs out on display. Just...don't mind her. She's enjoying herself.]</sub>

UNQUENCHED

<sub>[Everyone seems to be drinking themselves stupid and having a good time but there's one problem - Diva's thirsty. Not for water or wine, mind you, oh no. What she craves is thick and red and currently flowing through every guest here at the party. She's...behaving, as it were, but it's becoming harder to. She's never been good at ignoring her own desires, especially when said desire is blood.

But she promised Atsushi. She promised.

Grumbling to herself she sits down on the nearest sofa, raising a wrist to her mouth only to bite down on it, hard. It's not as if it brings her much relief at all but it's something to keep her preoccupied. Maybe she should just excuse herself and go out for a quick bite...

Alternatively, if you seem drunk and willing enough, she might just approach you sweetly, hoping you'll say yes to her question.]</sub>

Can I have a bite? It won't hurt too much.

WILDCARD

_{[Diva will be mingling throughout the party, trying various drinks and foods left out to be sampled. She might also try and ask you to dance with her, if you seem like the willing type. Honestly I'm down for anything so hit me up with whatever you fancy!]}

Unquenched

[thetaintedsorrow]

[Chuuya is of course expecting to see Diva, and now that he knows why she’d drug him all over the place he can’t help but feel a little glad for her “help”. Atsushi had been able to install the bar without Chuuya knowing about it, and that had made for a really nice surprise when he’d gotten home.

So he’s not too bothered by Diva asking for a bite of him, especially since Reign had already drank his blood once.]

Depends. You gonna take so much I pass out?

Dat thirsty one

[steponme]

A bite?

[Hi, this is drunk Shell. Or at the very least, pleasantly tipsy.]

[There's a moment where he comically looks side to side, as if she could have possibly been addressing someone else despite them being the only two standing in this particular hallway right now. But when that clearly isn't the case, he just kind of points at himself.]

You mean... me?

wildcard

[eaudevamp]

[ As the party went on, Reign could be found sitting on a couch in the living room. If Diva were to catch him, she would probably notice a food container on his lap with a note saying "For Reign".

He opened the lid, a small smile on his lips at the blood mochis that Atsushi had specially prepared again, since normal human food still didn't agree to well with him. He was adapting a bit, but too much and he'll get sick.

Could Diva smell the subtle metallic scent of blood under all that sweetness? Would she want to have a taste? Reign wouldn't mind sharing. ]

hewwo it is me .... wildcard ... let me know if this isnt fine

[insist]

[ While everyone is drinking and having a good time, Rohan is here, completely alone and not really caring to talk to anybody. Yes, he's that weird one at a party. He did actually spot Diva earlier on, but his immediate reaction then was something in the lines of 'Eugh' and he made no effort to approach her. He was also hoping she wouldn't notice him in return, so that's worked out for him so far.

The next time he sees her though, she seems to have someone in her grasp, embracing them as she feasts on their neck. Now this is -- Hm. It's exactly what he wanted to see before but didn't get the chance to. While some people might find the scene risque, Rohan isn't normal enough to think that way. It's not like anyone's actually having sex right? This is just research, for when he writes a vampire story one day.

He takes out his Nikon camera and snaps a quick photograph, hoping no one will notice. The flash isn't on, at least. ]

closed to chuuchuu

[insist]

[ Gross. People. Rohan's only here because Atsushi invited him, and upon seeing just how many people had showed up for this birthday party, he feels compelled to leave immediately. There is one task he needs to complete, however, because he's always been professional about his work even if he's a bitchy man-child about everything else.

While Chuuya parties on the ceiling or chats up his friends, Rohan will approach him from somewhere at the side. He doesn't wait for the guy to finish his conversation, instead demanding his immediate attention. ] Ahem.

[ And if Chuuya doesn't hear him, he'll clear his throat once more, louder now. ] Ahem!

[ In his hands is a wrapped up canvas ...? ]

Woo woo all aboard

[thetaintedsorrow]

[Chuuya is just making idle chit-chat when Rohan comes along, but he still gets a pissy little look from the redhead. Rude?? He’s clearly busy here! But more importantly...]

Did Atsushi invite you?

[Cause Chuuya sure as hell didn’t!! This guy is the last person he expected to see at his party. He’s about to get mouthy-

Oh, but what’s that in Rohan’s hands...?]

That for me?

[...what?? A present from Rohan?? Chuuya was pretty sure the guy hated him.]

III, aka alarmed kazoo noises

[inaurare]

[all right, Lula doesn't mind being separated from Linneus too much when they're visiting a friend's house. And her friend Chuuya is definitely a friend, so it's quite all right for Linneus to wander off* while she explores the kitchen.

And what an alarming sight that greets her when she gets there - Friend Chuuya on the ceiling! But friends belong on the ground! Emitting slightly concerned humming noises she inches closer, pacing beneath him in consternation. Why is Friend Chuuya on the ceiling? He'll surely fall!]

(*absolutely not the case, Lula is absolutely the one wandering off while Linneus is in conversation, but it's not as if these nuances matter to her...)

[thetaintedsorrow]

[Chuuya has been too busy drinking, mingling, and showing off to properly greet everyone yet, so he hadn’t noticed Lula until just now. He looks down at the adorable llama making cute little concerned noises, and of course he has to come down to greet her. He can’t be worrying the poor thing!

With a grin Chuuya deactivates his ability and lands gracefully on his feet like a cat right in front of her.]

Hey.

[Chuuya will absolutely bend down and pet Lula’s neck. How could he not?]

Where’s Linneus?

III. [ Terrace ]

[cassus]

[ The sight of Chuuya, standing solitary and singularly alone amid the backdrop of a Universe not their own, is something Dazai wants to remember. Not just for those cold nights when his bed is empty, without the familiar rhythm of a certain man's slumbering breaths - A melody soothing as a lullaby that he's fallen asleep to them on more missions than memory recalls.

Dazai needs to keep this instant alive indefinitely, burning bright in the way a lonely man holds up a light to a pitch-black sky. Both are a defense against not only sightless unforeseen things which lie in wait, but the inky darkness within every man's soul.

The picture he takes tonight captures Chuuya with stardust in his eyes and moonlight bathing skin an otherworldly shade of blue, the curve of his sleek silhouette breaking from an even patterned railing as if Chuuya aims to rise above the cement at his feet if only to pluck a star from the very heavens. And yet like fireflies in jars meant to substitute for the sun, it's a poor replacement for the entirety of the man himself.

No photograph could ever be half as breathtaking.

The ache within him, a strain that feels like ribs breaking as his heart catches somewhere in the back of his throat, feels like loss and longing and a thousand other things which poets have put to paper in heart-wrenching sonnets and stories alike.

Dazai has to cut the feeling short before it forces him to flee this moment. Already the urge to backtrack and slip away as soundlessly as he'd come creeps into the forefront of his mind. But before his cowardly heart can run from this, leaving it bittersweet and unresolved in the way he's always handled Chuuya, instead a finger activates the flash on his device.

He can't leave without first admitting what he's taken, no matter if that risks it's removal. ]

Chuu~ya, the birthday boy ought to smile for the camera!

[ The next picture he takes is meant to be noticed, as it fills the terrace with obnoxious white light. It announces his presence just feet away, leaning against a door frame with a lazy air about him. Not that it's necessary, when the flippantly nonchalant words he doesn't feel in the slightest have done that already. ]

[thetaintedsorrow]

[It’s certainly fascinating to gaze up at the stars of a sky that Chuuya is wholly unfamiliar with, on the terrace of a mansion he never would’ve imagined himself living in when he’d first arrived on Nysa. If you were to tell him a year ago where he’d be today, he would’ve laughed and told you to lay off the booze. It just goes to show how quickly one’s world can be turned upside down.

His thoughts are abruptly interrupted by the obnoxiously bright light of a camera flash, and Chuuya finds himself temporarily blinded by it.]

What the hell?!

[That all too familiar voice tells Chuuya all he needs to know about his surprise guest, and his grumbling only increases as he rubs his eyes to will away the spots dancing in front of them.

Apollo, who had been resting comfortably on Chuuya’s shoulder, immediately flutters over to Dazai in a tizzy, chirping and squawking and very much getting up in his face. Who is this person that made the sky too bright?! How dare he disturb his master?! But pecking people right off the bat usually gets Apollo scolded, so after giving Dazai a piece of his mind Apollo flits back over to land on top of Chuuya’s hat.

Once Chuuya can actually fucking see again he crosses his arms and leans against the railing with a huff.]

So you decided to show up, huh?

[He’s acting like he doesn’t care, but maybe he’s a bit glad to see the bastard. Not like he’ll ever admit that, though.]

I hope you brought booze.

III.

[versianvirtue]

[Asseylum was invited here not because she knew who Chuuya was, but because she was friends with Slaine. By now, she had already introduced herself to him and wished him a happy birthday, because it might have felt rude not to know whose special day it was otherwise, but beyond that, they never got the chance to chat it up and get to know each other better.

Now that she's on the way from figuring out where the bathroom was, gets quite the shock when she finds the birthday boy taking a casual stroll not on the floor like a normal person, but on the ceiling! She gasps, taking a step back when she notices, and then marvels.]

Chuuya! What a surprise! How are you doing that?!

[thetaintedsorrow]

[Chuuya hasn’t talked to Slaine much, but Atsushi likes him, and that’s good enough reason to have him over for the party. The lady accompanying him is quite cute, and Chuuya had been happy to introduce himself and thank her for the birthday wishes.

And now here she is, marveling at his ability. He really loves it when people do that.]

Just an ability of mine.

[He releases it just long enough to make it look like he’s going to fall before stopping to float above the ground.]

Gravity manipulation.

saving the best for last tbh

[semblant]

[Solomon's here, per invitation, clutching a rectangular bag by the handle. Though the contents may be obvious, the liquor's hidden -- wrapped meticulously in white tissue paper. It's a bottle of something he's never tried -- something recommended by the merchant. He didn't fuss much, he's yet to learn Chuuya's biases. There's a card tucked into the side of a broader side of the bag, which reads simply: 𝑀𝒶𝓎 𝓉𝒽𝒾𝓈 𝒶𝓊𝓈𝓅𝒾𝒸𝒾𝑜𝓊𝓈 𝒹𝒶𝓎 𝒻𝒾𝓁𝓁 𝓎𝑜𝓊𝓇 𝓁𝒾𝒻𝑒 𝓌𝒾𝓉𝒽 𝓅𝓁𝑒𝒶𝓈𝒶𝓃𝓉 𝓈𝓊𝓇𝓅𝓇𝒾𝓈𝑒𝓈 𝒶𝓃𝒹 𝓁𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁𝓎 𝓇𝑒𝓌𝒶𝓇𝒹𝓈 𝒻𝑜𝓇 𝓉𝒽𝑒 𝒸𝑜𝓂𝒾𝓃𝑔 𝓎𝑒𝒶𝓇𝓈.

𝐻𝒶𝓅𝓅𝓎 𝐵𝒾𝓇𝓉𝒽𝒹𝒶𝓎!

𝒮𝒾𝓃𝒸𝑒𝓇𝑒𝓁𝓎, 𝒮𝑜𝓁𝑜𝓂𝑜𝓃 𝒢𝑜𝓁𝒹𝓈𝓂𝒾𝓉𝒽 𝒶𝓃𝒹 𝒟𝒾𝓋𝒶.

[Except the period's been turned into a comma and he's hastily added:]

𝒶𝓃𝒹 𝒮𝒽𝒾𝓃𝓈𝓊𝓀𝑒 𝒯𝒶𝓀𝒶𝓈𝓊𝑔𝒾.

[They're coming as a (sloppy) unit, it's only a courtesy that he includes the brute.

Anyone hanging by the entrance earns a paltry wave and some smalltalk.]


• Finger food?? Drinks?? Hors d'oeuvres.
[Catch this bougie piece of shit eating finger food, sitting cross-legged and away from the table, inviting all sorts of trouble while appearing disengaged and content enough on his own -- just observing. Currently, he's eating a lemon-caper Parmesan potato salad bite, one leg crossed over another, a napkin spread across his lap. He looks about as irritating as your imagination's drawing him to be.

Should anyone tread close enough, he may ask them for an additional napkin or inquire about drinks. He can't tell the guests apart from the host-types.]


• Entering: The Cave of Wonders from the Mickey Mouse Club
[One cannot invite Solomon to a mansion (furry or not) and expect him not to eventually get up and act like he's perusing the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston. He eventually parts ways with the party to meander through the house. It may or may not be reassuring to know that, while he's being voyeuristic, he's not actually taking or touching anything. Feel free to encourage this probing session or herd him back to the group. He'll probably only stray two or three more times.

He may also potentially walk in on you doing #2 also.]


• [DRUMROLL] [WILDCARD]
[Feel free to PM me or just come at me with whatever feels right in your heart.]

A mix of the first two

[thetaintedsorrow]

[Thank god for more booze. Chuuya is going to be busy drinking himself into a stupor once all is said and done, but he does manage to behave himself for a while, eventually stepping away from the bar and heading upstairs to go smoke on the balcony. He doesn’t indulge in the habit often, but a box of fine cigarettes gifted to him by a friend on his birthday is a good enough reason to suck down some cancer sticks.

He’s surprised to see Solomon upstairs though, and Chuuya watches him for a moment before approaching out of sheer curiousity.]

Looking for something?

[There actually is some fine art lining the walls, but Chuuya hardly ever pays attention to it.]

Thanks for the booze, by the way.

III......i'm not late,,

[inreturn]

Chewie! There you are!

[One can always count on Kaden to eventually sniff out his prey and corner them. He's a little confused as to why the birthday boy is all the way out on the terrace by himself...doesn't he want to be the center of attention? It's not really any of his business, but he files the thought away for later. He lives in the present! And he's presently strolling up to Chuuya, a wrapped object under his arm and his tail bouncing behind him. Like always, he's dressed in vaguely Japanese clothing, but he's gone for a more formal yukata this time.]

Hello! It's a great night for a birthday, huh? ...Though every night is a birthday, now that I think about it.

Never too late :3

[thetaintedsorrow]

[Ah, that voice, and that nickname, it must be-]

Kaden.

[Chuuya turns around, looking rather surprised when Kaden approaches him with a gift. Of course he’s glad to see him, even if the nickname is starting to spread...]

Yeah. You can see the stars really well tonight.

[He grins as he eyes that bushy tail.]

Glad you could make it.
