karaoke party!

Who: Lucia and you!
What: Karaoke Party Time
When: Fall 20
Where: Cozy Kitchen
Warnings: n/a for now

[ On Fall 15th, a notice goes up on the noticeboard advertising a karaoke party at Cozy Kitchen on Fall 20th. It may be easy to miss with all of the pirate chaos, but Lucia will put a sign at the front of the restaurant to remind her fellow farmers of the event.

When Fall 20th rolls around, the smell of Lucia's food can be smelled from outside in town square. One may also catch another redhead bringing alcohol from his winery into the restaurant, or people from the other neighboring bar moving equipment into Cozy Kitchen. When everything's said and done, the restaurant is left with a nice evening setup. It's a small-ish space but there is plenty of food and alcohol for people to indulge in, as well as non-alcoholic drinks like tea and water. The karaoke machine is set up, and there are board games from the store that people can play while they're here.

People are free to sing, open mic style, as many times as they'd like. At some point during the party, however, Lucia will make it a point to play some slower songs on the machine and cite that it's been a while since the dance in Spring. Now might be a good chance to get one last dance in with someone before Winter hits! Finally, party games will be inevitable, so go ahead and participate or run your own.

[ it's so sweet of Trahearne to react this way...! Ori can't help but be bashful for it all the more. She feels like been floating on a little cloud on her own all night thinking about it, and she worries it's a bit... much, for M-21 especially. ]

Thanks, Trahearne. Hah, like I said, we make a great team...

[ Did it take jealousy and a pirate attack on their farm for them to figure things out? Yeah. But that's fine! ]

Mmm, it's your turn now, right? Truth or dare?
pactmarshal: (hi :))

[personal profile] pactmarshal 2023-02-23 01:07 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Aren't pirate attacks just par for the course?

Trahearne is genuinely happy for her, though. That they seem to be working out tickles him so much! He should get them something.

Anyway--

Hmm. ]


Dare.

Hmmm...

[ She thinks she's been going relatively easy on dares, thus far... Especially with Miss Judith, who seems impervious to just about anything. Then something occurs to her, and the idea strikes light one of those... What do they call them?? Light bulbs???

She grins. ]


Allow me to turn you into an animal. Any animal, of your choosing. Just for a few minutes.
pactmarshal: (it was a travesty)

[personal profile] pactmarshal 2023-02-23 08:00 pm (UTC)(link)
[




I'm sorry what ]


You want to...turn me into an animal?

[ He's tempted to take the a shot for this, but he's not here to get wasted. ]

...All right.
hearthwarming: (099)

[personal profile] hearthwarming 2023-02-23 09:06 pm (UTC)(link)
...Well! I should probably warn you before you actually agree, but it's not like when I shapeshift. When I do that, I still retain my mental capabilities and such... But this spell fully turns you into the animal, including um... mentally.

So if you really want to go through with it, give some thought into what animal you'd like to be!
pactmarshal: (only theoretically?)

[personal profile] pactmarshal 2023-02-23 09:34 pm (UTC)(link)
--Well. It is a dare.

[ He already gave his answer. He knows Ori is kind enough to give him an out, but he won't take it! He's not a coward anymore!!!! Probably.

He takes a deep breath as he makes up his mind. ]


Cat.

[personal profile] hearthwarming 2023-02-23 11:08 pm (UTC)(link)
I'll make sure you don't get into too much trouble! And I'll end the spell after a few minutes...

[ Her fingers curl around an amber amulet hanging around her neck. It glows brightly and warmly as she reaches with her other hand towards Trahearne, casting Polymorph to turn him into a cat that resembles Mister Phantom! ]

[ Trahearne braces himself, and...

He's a cat! How do cats think...? It doesn't matter. He trots to Ori first, weaves between her legs in a show of familiarity, and for a second, sits on her feet, tail flicking as he watches the crowd.

--And then he darts off! Brb... ]
pactmarshal: (mmhm.)

2/2

[personal profile] pactmarshal 2023-02-24 10:06 am (UTC)(link)
[ After bothering a few people, the cat comes trotting back to Ori, and he sits politely at her feet.

Maybe he might not retain all his mental faculties, but something tells him he's finished now. turn me back to sylvari pls ]

[ just kidding! She drops Polymorph, but only after giving him a lil chin scritch!

Once he's back to being himself, she beams up at him with a bright smile. ]


Affectionate kitty, aren't you? Well done!
pactmarshal: (patiently waiting)

[personal profile] pactmarshal 2023-02-24 04:26 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Trahearne gives a sheepish laugh, his eyes darting away in embarrassment. ]

It was...certainly an experience. Do you often subject your friends to that at home?

[ She shakes her head. ]

Oh, no. They do that to themselves.

[ ??? ]
pactmarshal: (curious)

[personal profile] pactmarshal 2023-02-24 11:32 pm (UTC)(link)
[ ...

literally what does this mean ]


They can turn themselves into animals? [ Curious! If not norn, then that must be a talented group of friends. ] That's impressive.
hearthwarming: (099)

[personal profile] hearthwarming 2023-02-25 01:06 am (UTC)(link)
[ She nods!! ]

They can, using the same spell I just cast on you! It's different from when I turn into something using my druid magic, though... When I do that, I still stay myself! If that makes sense...

H-How did you like it? Being a cat, I mean.
pactmarshal: (i will consider this proposition)

[personal profile] pactmarshal 2023-02-25 11:15 am (UTC)(link)
[ That's genuinely fascinating, both that they can use simple magic to accomplish it, and that there's a difference. He'll have to grill her more later for answers, purely from a professional perspective.

Not at a party, though. ]


It was...interesting. [ He tilts his head. ] The hardest adjustment to make when taking the place of a flesh creature is getting used to the pounding in the chest.

[ But also, his memory feels a little hazy. ]

[ Flesh creature...... ]

Ah, that's right. I hope it wasn't all too jarring... You seemed to be enjoying lots of attention, actually!
pactmarshal: (kari kari)

[personal profile] pactmarshal 2023-02-27 08:15 am (UTC)(link)
It was all right. [ All in all. The heart pounding, mostly. He reaches to scratch the back of his head. ]

I just hope I didn't embarrass myself.

Hmm, well... I think you cheered Amber and Otegine up a bit...

[ Both of whom have felt a little bit... down, throughout the night, so she's glad if Trahearne could give them a bit of joy. ]

Would you consider getting a little kitty kiss from Mister Mishka embarrassing...? It was sweet! I think you were fine.

Thanks for indulging me with that dare!
pactmarshal: (a good pose)

[personal profile] pactmarshal 2023-02-27 06:08 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Trahearne's expression softens a bit. He doesn't know about Otegine (his boyfriend's roommate seems to carry about him an air of melancholy at all times, so those particulars he does not think hard on, but is happy to hear nonetheless), but he knows Amber had gotten upset when they spoke earlier. If he had managed to brighten their moods, even for just a bit, then that's more than he could ask for.

Except. Well.

Ignore the gold tinge on his cheeks! It's not there. ]


... You're welcome, Ori. It was an interesting experience.

[ ... ]

Don't let me keep you. Enjoy the rest of the party.
