[OPEN, MINGLE] 'cause not all who wander are lookin' for the exit

Who: Taako, Lup, perhaps you-- invited or not?
What: Taako's been trying to think of a good way to have a party now that ice hell is over, and the disappearance of his sister's husband and his brother in law sounds like as good a time as any to start denying bad feelings and cheering up his goddamn twin.
Where: Around Horny House, aka Imported House 5-1
When: April 11th
Warnings: Alcohol, food, some stupidity most likely.

The night of the 10th, anyone who's friends Taako or Lup-- especially if you're friends with Lup-- will get a text from Taako. It reads:

hey
come over tomorrow at noon
i took down a totally massive animal and im having a barbecue
also bring a gift for lup
dont tell her dont ask questions dont care what it is just do it
your prize is a significant amount of roasted whateverthefuck that i have tested to be sure it will not kill you
also if you dont show up im going to come get you so see ya then


And sure enough, the next day, behind horny house is a large pit filled with rocks and... something or other spit roasted over it. Whatever it is happens to be very, very big, but you can probably see the smoke before you see the animal. Most of the tables in the house have been dragged out onto the lawn around it, covered in mismatched cups, containers of water and plates of fruit, and something lovingly labelled 'SPACE JUICE (CONTAINS ALCOHOL)' that is being served in a large punch bowl. It's bright blue and smells like lighter fluid, so it's pretty unlikely you needed to be warned that there's alcohol in it. One table simply has a sign that says 'PUT GIFTS HERE', which is pretty self explanatory. There also seems to be music coming from discernibly Somewhere, though it's completely unclear as to where-- seeing as the guy running it is magic, it might actually just be coming from the sun. None of that is especially important right now. What is important is this:

Everyone here is legally required to go care about Lup, or Taako's going to punch you in the head. And not even with magic- just with his little fists. So do it, punk.

OOC: This is a MINGLE LOG- please put up toplevels and tag around! While Taako had people he invited, it's pretty damn easy to see this going down, and if you play by the rules and say nice things to his very sad sister he won't kick you out. Have fun!!!

[ LUP?? PLEASE??? ]

You don't- you don't need to need to get me trashed. It's fine if you just ask about it. [ He will not trust the space juice.

Then again, Hadriel is depressing most of the time, so. He'll keep it on his maybes list. Explaining things soberly is mostly nice for the things Finn likes to be cagey about. Poe's drunk Republic history lessons, though? On point. Definitely lock one of those down. ]


But yeah. Sort of. We started out in different armies and wound up in the same one after we met. It was a weird couple of days.

[are you surprised???]

Sorry, fam, I'm gonna cut you off right there. You're at a Taaco Twin party, my guy, so you def have to get at least a little trashed. Just a teeeny trashed. This is my party and I demand it.

[Are you going to disappoint her, Finn? Are you??

But Lup lets him start the story without pushing space juice into his hands quite yet, the elf leaning back against the wall, arms crossed over her middle, listening with obvious interest.]


Shit, you both work fast.

[ He does actually think on that one for a second. Will he disappoint her... that's the question. It is her party.

Finn doesn't do peer pressure, which is basically a cornerstone of his whole personality. So it's less him considering it because he thinks he has to, and more him considering it because he doesn't see why not. In theory. He's known Lup for like four conversations and he would die for her, and he could probably also use a drink in general after Life Happened. ]


I won't rule it out. Since it's your party. [ Sure, he smelled the Space Juice earlier and might have communed with an elder god when it happened? But he can mull that over. He's probably got time to prepare. ]

And I don't think I know anyone who gets to work slow. Galaxy's at war. Not that there are any better options than the Resistance to start with.
restinglichface: DNT ([unsure] so. what the fuck)

[After finally seeing a single Star War, Finn most definitely deserves a drink. Bottom's up, bud.]

'Course you won't. Cuz you got good taste.

[He showed up here, after all, and is pretty much an honorary member of the crew at this point. Finn never stood a chance.]

So you were battlin' it out in this big, ol' galaxy war when you got dragged into that other place, right? Right in the middle of it? You never got to see it play out?
bythehand: (motion blur intensifies)

[ Lup says he has good taste. It's going on his resume.

He does end up pulling a face, though. War is disgruntling: understatements of the century. ]


Yeah. We were just getting started. I don't exactly expect it to be over by the time we manage to get back, though.

[ That's. Eh, kind of depressing, but kind of a comfort. If they ever get back. Big if from where he's standing. He doesn't lay the if down when he talks to Rey or Poe about it, because it's a really bad way to bring the room down as a unit. ]

Nah, doesn't matter how long the whole thing takes anyway. This place picks you up from one point of time and drops you right back there when you're done.

[She knows from personal experience and is grateful to not have to miss that time back home.]

I've gone back twice, always right to the exact moment I first popped into Hadriel. It's kinda wild.
