hadriel_logs | Event Log: Party Hard

Who: All characters participating in the event!
What: The event log for the Party Hard event
Where: All over the city!
When: May 24th-June 2nd
Warnings: Party Rockin'

Delight volunteering to go off to spy has been a somber moment for Hadriel indeed- but she doesn't want you to be sad for her! As a matter of fact, it's time for joy- and we all know that Delight's favorite way to pass the time is with a party!

So, on the morning of May 24th, she'll be trying to inspire everyone here to get their blood pumping a little in a fun way with a constant stream of partying! To you old timers here, the party will be rather similar to Delight's resurrection event, with a few notable twists.

Don't worry, don't worry- there's still going to be patent-pending Delight Energy Shots at the new bar, but with this party, the longer you go, the harder you go.

See, Rage wants to get in on the action a little too, and what better way than by exerting her own influence on the party and making it the most wild, savage bash you've ever been to? As the party goes on, and as you keep dancing, you find yourself unable to stop. It's not forced, but... you need to keep partying, to keep upping the ante. Before you know it, you've thrown rocks through windows, smashed a bottle over someone's head, and sharpened your pitchfork for that local mob you've always wanted to join.

Be careful out there. It's dangerous to get swept up in on the action- and maybe even more dangerous to try and avoid it. You've read about mob mentalities, haven't you?

Good luck, and happy partying!

[While not actively partaking in the partying, Rey isn't being a complete killjoy, either. She's made sure that the custom liquor at the Speakeasy be temporarily withheld in light of Delight providing them with plenty of means of drinking themselves into a stupor.

[Rey also happens to be on the scene when Cecily is displaying her addition alongside the flashing lights. Though seeing that it comes from her hand is... different.]

Um. Are you okay?

[She may or may not be a little buzzed herself. And wired, but not because of the shots -- that's just Rey.]

[ Rey catches Cecily on one of the fun days, and so she doesn't look like a miserable, drunken mess when she approaches. ]

Absolutely! [ The Inquisitor replies breathlessly, lowering her hands. ] Why, should I not be?

[ You can't feel pain if you're drunk, right? That's how it works?? ]

[Considering how Cecily often regards the gods, it's a surprise that she's reveling as she is now. Rey would almost be surprised, if she didn't find the green lights sparking from her hand to be more noteworthy.]

No reason. Just, um...

[She didn't actually see Cecily closing up the rifts back when demons had overrun the city, so this elicits more curiosity than anything else. But in Rey's own haze, she loses track of where she was trying to go with this.

[A hand slides down her face.] It's... pretty. [Pretty, pretty lights.]

It's - yes, I suppose. [ She doesn't know that Rey is talking about her hand, which is never pretty, and is instead always painful and Bad. ] Delight does know how to say goodbye.

[ What a great time, right?? ]

You don't seem to be enjoying yourself. [ The Inquisitor points out. ]

[The misconception is pretty obvious right away.] Was talking about your glowing hand, but that's nice, too.

[Still, Cecily isn't wrong in that Rey isn't dancing and joining in on the merry fun.]

This is... Had hoped that Delight wouldn't have to be one of the ones to leave. [She's still pretty bummed out that Love doesn't get to go out and get snuffed again, if this whole mission they're on comes to that.]

Oh. It - well, it is bright. [ And painful. She flaps the affected hand again. ] But it's not worth the trouble that comes along with it.

[ Being hunted down by an Elder God, slowly dying, etc. ]

I know. I think we could all stand to keep her around. [ sigh ] But Rage is a good warrior, I imagine, and... all we can do now is hope for their success. Otherwise, we're about to find out firsthand how they were all killed.

[Her gaze doesn't leave the glow of Cecily's hand, entranced by the color of it.] Probably. Doubt you've got that thing because you enjoy the aesthetic.

[Well, that could be the reason, because magic wibbly wobbly and all that mess. But how likely is that? People here rarely have anything nice.]

Am starting to have a pretty good idea how. We have similar things back home. Sorrow was actually concerned by a weapon that came from there, back when little trinkets were cropping up all over the city. [You remember, right?]

I didn't choose it. [ She sighs, as if this had been obvious. ] The whole situation came about by accident, and, really, I should have just been - exploded with everyone else...

[ Ahem. She blinks, looked a little put-out by her own outburst. ]

... Anyhow. [ !! ] By a weapon, though? What do you mean?

Edited 2017-06-14 14:18 (UTC)

What a fortunate twist of luck, because exploding sucks.

[Rey knows; she's exploded before. She does not recommend it for anyone.]

Mean it's a common military-grade firearm. Sorrow said their enemies had similar weapons made out of the type of energy the masergun uses, but on a larger scale.

You say, as if from experience.

[ Having never exploded, Cecily can't argue. ]

... I think I may be entirely too drunk to talk about this. [ The Inquisitor informs her after a pause, blinking. ] But - I know this is important. Could you... perhaps... bring it up later, once I'm at least primarily sober?

Because it is from experience.

[Is Rey going to readily provide the details of said experience?

[As one can expect from her, the answer is nah. Because, like Cecily just pointed out, she is way too sloshed for these subjects.]

Sure, no worries.

Good. [ To the latter, not the former. ] Though - Did you just say you've exploded?

[ Hang on. That doesn't sound right. ]

But, you're... [ She gestures vaguely across Rey's body. ] You know.

[ Not in pieces. ]

Well, can't say that the last body was so lucky.

[Despite the levity in which she reveals this little detail, it really is a gristly subject. Easier dealt with in light, if she can help it.]

[ This is too confusing for the moment, so the Inquisitor just shakes her head vaguely. ]

You'll tell me about it later? Sometime?

Later, sure. If you ask.

[Because it'd be too much to expect Rey to initiate such a topic a second time. Dammit, Cecily, why can't you just be sober.]

I will write it down so that I'll be sure to remember.

[ And while she mimes writing in the air, there's nothing with which to remind herself, and so it's entirely possible she'll just forget. ]

[Rey arches a brow, pointing at the empty space in the air where Cecily just "wrote" her little memo.]

Well, with a notebook like that, how could you ever?

How could I ever - what, remember? [ She scoffs, as if the concept is ridiculous. She also sways a bit. ] The trick is to trust... your brain. To keep it - remembered.

[ a+ ]

Good luck with that. Keeping your brain remembered, that is.

[Might be a good time to leave drunk Cecily to her pretty lightshow.]
