Event log: How Delightful

[hadrielmods]

Who: Anyone and everyone!
What: Delight's resurrection.
Where: Throughout the city, starting in the bar.
When: March 23rd-April 3rd
Warnings: Partying too hard, poor life choices, underage drinking, the worst hangovers of all time.

On the morning of March 23rd, bright and early, Delight is resurrected. Her temple is restored, and her bar appears in the city. What does that mean? Well, obviously it's time to celebrate. We hope everyone brought their party shoes! From March 23rd to March 27th, the party will be mostly contained in and around Delight's bar, with an invitation from the goddess herself. But it won't be long before she decides that's just not good enough - gotta bring the party to the people! From March 28th to April 3rd, the natural light is dimmed and replaced with flashing colored lights, fireworks, and even a few disco balls. Loud music blares through the city, making it hard to sleep, and a wide variety of trouble is available to be gotten into.

Wanna drink away the pain of being trapped in a hellcave? There's unlimited amounts of alcohol of all kinds, and Delight will be happy to supply anything that might be missing. More interested in karaoke-ing your heart out? Hit up one of the jukeboxes. Enjoy gleeful displays of your own mortality? Here's a skateboard and a ramp, have fun. There's just about anything you could desire, as long as what you desire is to party hard and make bad decisions. And hey, if you find yourself getting tired, grab one (or five) of Delight's special energy shots. They'll eliminate your need for sleep, food, water, cure an oncoming hangover and immediately relax any sore muscles you've got for 24 hours per shot! There's no down side! (Except for all the effects coming back to hit you at once when the shot wears off, but whatever.)

After about a week and a half of tequila shots, keg stands, roman candle battles, tagging the city with free spraypaint, inappropriate party games, and balloon hats made to look like rocket ships (wait... that's not a rocket ship), Delight realizes everyone's partied out and starts to wind things down. On April 3rd, she'll clean up the city, removing everything except for a few remaining fireworks and disco balls, stored in her temple. Her bar will still be around, if you can stand to even look at liquor after all the poor choices you made. Otherwise, lay in bed and try to recover from your hangover while the city goes back to normal.

march 30 -wasted-

[ Hey. That kid looks pretty comf right there in that spot specifically. She wants to be super comf too.

It's an adventure to get herself over to him and then onto the ground without falling all over herself. Once she's down there beside him, her hair mingling with his, she giggles at the explosions and glittering lights. She turns to her side to see the party goers and mayhem happening all around.

This is something that she's never felt or experienced before. Being relaxed. Enjoying life. This is awesome. ]

[krangke]

(This kid is pretty comfy. Has been comfy for like an hour. Or maybe twenty minutes. He has no idea anymore, everything's kind of just melted together.

He's proud of her. That's a big accomplishment and when he realizes he's no longer alone, he grins even before he knows whose with him and whether or not he knows them. He's a people person. He likes companionship.

Similarly, Newt's entirely foreign to excitement like this and realizing how great life can actually be. He rolls his head over and oh, it's a girl. There's so many of those here and he smiles something soft and easy.)

Hey.

(Because why not? She looks nice and she looks like she's having a nice time. They could be nice together.)

[watashinonamaewa]

[ Oh, this kid is saying something now. Her head turns to see him better. Bright blue eyes. Smile lingering on her lips. ]

Hey.

[ Couple hundred years too old for you, kid. But this can still be nice. Everything can still be nice tonight. ]

[krangke]

(Aw no, lady, this kid's spoken for but he's always game for friends and friends being made while drunk is his favorite. A nice time as friends. Buddies. Pals. Amigos.)

I don't think I've seen you around before?

(Because no she's super different looking. Then again, he's looking at her from a strange angle.)

[watashinonamaewa]

[ Good. Drunk friends are the best friends, she assumes. She has a habit of easily adopting friends to begin with. ]

I'm new here.

[ It's not just you. She's tall as all hell in that black bodysuit. Definitely would have remembered her if you'd seen her before. ]

Think I came at a good time.

[krangke]

(Newt's got a pretty similar habit himself. He likes meeting people.)

Ohhhhhhh. Welcome!

(Newt's not quite as impressionable. Still, he's pretty good with faces.)

Yeah, you did. Most a time here this place is pretty boring. Some bad stuff happens occasionally but it's-

(He makes a weird, random assortment of gestures in the air then just shrugs. It wasn't that bad. Some people thought it was. Newt thought the place the safest he's been in a long time.)

Normally there's nothing to do like this around here.

[watashinonamaewa]

[ Yes. Erratic arm gestures communicate well with her. ]

I can change that. I'm a scientist, ya know. [ Big smile! ] Lots of science stuff to do. [ Want to make grass blue? She can probably totally make grass blue. ]

There's a monster problem I think I can help with too. [ Shruuug. ] I dunno.

[krangke]

I love science! Science is the best. I was named after a science. Or nicknamed, I guess. Uhhh what- oh! Isaac Newton, yeah.

(Sadly he barely had any memories so most of his science talents were forgotten but he had it secure as a muscle memory. To an extent anyway. He's jealous of her blue grass skills.)

I dunno, I dunno. I don't think- they can't all be monsters. I mean they stick to the caves whaddif that's just their home and we're being jerks stormin' in there killing all of 'em?

late as all heck, many apologies D:

[watashinonamaewa]

[ Dude. She has no idea who that is. But he sounds scientific as fuck and it's awesome. ]

Yeah. You're right. They aren't the problem. We're the problem. But that's the problem, isn't it? We were put here so we have to claim this territory. We have to become the dominant species or else we get eaten. We didn't ask for this, but it's how we're going to survive. Right?

[ This is really speaking to her. She's really speaking to herself right now. ]

I could maybe science a thing— [ Cibo you're drunk. ] —that could make them docile? Maybe?
