It's finally time to reap the rewards you've earned from all that hard work collecting and returning the Hope orbs! Be careful walking the streets during the small earthquakes, but feel free to admire the scenery as your beautiful city reassembles its way back into its former glory.

There are new houses where the destroyed buildings once were, and they're perfect for a single person or pair of lovebirds. In addition, you'll find that the electricity to these new houses, and all other homes and shops in the city is restored. The food is better, the monsters are gone- hey, this city might be livable again!

To cap it all off, we've got a feast waiting for you on the 19th! Come one, come all, and enjoy all of your favorite foods, drinks, and party games. It's been awhile since we've all gotten together to celebrate something good, so get your party on and toss all your troubles away!

If I want your opinion I'll ask.

Don't hold your breath.

[Margaery would kill it again and again if she thought she could, but she feels helpless. and she hates feeling helpless]

Ugh. What a wretched creature. [she shakes her head in disgust.

she looks up at the change in his tone]

...I see. In a way, it makes it worse. I just [she throws her hands up] happened to be there. At least with Cersei, I knew the reasons behind her deeds. And I cannot trust it to not try again since it was so easy the first time.

My Elven friends have placed wards around my apartment and the Sewing Shop. The creature should not be able to pass them.

[puzzlingly]

Too bad, I could give you a few pointers.

[allthecards]

I'm sure I can figure out how to drink my own body weight in wine.

Though, it would take me a lot longer.

[Yes it's a short joke. He's mad at you. What're you going to do about it?]

[puzzlingly]

「Laugh, what else does one do with jokes?」

You know? You and Law would get along.

「Nah.」

[allthecards]

[You're not supposed to laugh when he insults you...jerk.]

Oh really? Who's that?

[puzzlingly]

「Meanwhile Atem keeps eating with particular glee, the tears might be getting in the way of the flavor, however. He dries his eyes with the back of his hand. It is when Yukari calls him.」

Hey, Yukari. I am great. Just great.

「He looks down at the burger, and offers it to him.」

Have a bite.

「If Yukari goes for it, it isn't really the best burger in the world, even if it's tasty enough, who knows why the hell Atem is so emotional about it...」

[puzzlingly]

「Aw sorry, broke your rules? Want a band-aid?」

A pirate! Like a real one, he's really great. A bit of a jerk too. But mostly great. He's the only one who's called me short... heh. But he's just really tall...!

[puzzlingly]

Come on, don't be like that...! It's really good--

「Wait, that voice...」

... Whistler?

[puzzlingly]

「Gosh, Margaery is a saint, who has the patient for a drunk guy, really.」

Who needs goblets?

「He handles the jar at her.」

[whistlewhilstyouwork]

You got me

[Grin]

[allthecards]

Hmpf.

[This is how much Kaiba cares about your other friends Atem. Why don't you, Law and Seth all go hang out together? All the eye rolls.]

[puzzlingly]

「Atem does hope a bit for a reaction, and keeps waiting.

That's enough. The rest of the contents of the goblet go right to Kaiba's face.」

[puzzlingly]

Hey...!

「Atem looks marveled at his friend, he's never seen him before! Okay, maybe Whistler cannot see that but there is definitely glee in his voice.」

I'm glad you're here! Are you having a good time? ... I'm just really glad you're here!

「He might be a little more than tipsy, that's for sure, but the sentiment is all his.」

(cw: sexual reference, drugs)

[outofthefire]

[she'd hate the idea of marrying for state. and hate the idea of it for him, too, even though she'd get that it was necessary. she'd just hope for his sake that love would eventually grow there. and in her time here, she's grown sick of the idea of her old life in Twin Peaks. it didn't make her happy, it didn't keep BOB away, it didn't save her life. it was just one mindless sexual encounter after another with drugs to take the pain away]

I am. Would you like to try some? Here. [she takes the fried chicken breast and cuts a slice of it off, offering it to him]

[allthecards]

[Of all the things Kaiba expected to happen that was not one of them.]

WHAT THE HELL YUGI?!

[Starts looking around for something to wipe his face with.]

[puzzlingly]

「Oh dear Ra, that volume. He doesn't know if that's exactly what he was looking for or not.」

I needed to check if you were listening at all!

「He's always sharing things, always worrying! And for what?」

When are you going to tell me why are you so angry at me!?

「Oh, oh... there it is.」

[roseofthetyrells]

[she dealt with Joffrey Baratheon, she can handle Atem while he's drunk.

she blinks in surprise as the jar is handed to her]

From--from the jug? Very well. [she takes as delicate a drink as possible from the jug] It's better than Westerosi beer.

[blueeyesbond]

[Mokuba is ecstatic at seeing all of the food here after having to scavenge for things for a while. He will happily put together a full plate to dig into but he may have dessert first because once he sees they have chocolate parfaits... Yeah, he's definitely setting his plate aside and grabbing at least two of them.

Mokuba comes practically bounding up to Seto, one parfait in the crook of his arm while holding one in his hand and his plate in the other, utensils dangling precariously on the plate due to how full it is with a fork about to take a swan dive soon if he's not careful.] Niisama, look what they have!

[whistlewhilstyouwork]

Well that’s nice to hear. Can’t say that people are usually that happy to see

[He can hear the alcohol in Atem’s voice and it’s pretty amusing]

I’m doing alright. I’m not, uh, exactly great at these kinds of things. How about you? Having a good tune? You seem more suited to this stuff

[bythewaves]

[ Maglor blinks ]

They raided Lady Yavanna?!? [ Maglor supposes they are all lucky... or maybe unlucky? That the Lady herself did not show up to demand to know what was going on.

But he pours himself a glass too, savouring it slowly ]

Unless we're imaging what we're drinking I suppose.

[allthecards]

[Finds a napkin and angrily dries his face.]

BECAUSE YOU JUST THREW WINE IN MY FACE!

the 19th

[roseofthetyrells]

[and he looks wonderful. Margaery herself is dressed in a new gown based off of one she loved at home.

she has a plate of medium-rare venison, herbed roasted potatoes, and cooked carrots. in her other hand is a goblet of dry red wine.

she approaches Fingon in time to see him nearly spit the wine out. is he quite all right?]

Fingon, are you well?

[evocation]

No, they aren't.

[God!]

Do it anyway. It'll be gross.

[allthecards]

[This was why Seto had agreed to come. He could put up with a few hours of being uncomfortable if it made Mokuba this happy. He took grabbed one of the parfaits and the fork off his plate before either could fall to the ground. He didn't comment about starting with dessert, why wouldn't that be okay?]

I'm sure it will still be there if you take less at a time.
