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.

....That's right.

[The mask fell, and something else was shown. That something else is like a root exposed, raw as ever, but maybe that's just another mask.]

[He's a bitter, anger-filled bastard, true. But underneath that is...]


Oh. Alright. [He doesn't seem to want to argue, nodding dimly as he moves towards Otegine to walk alongside him.] Fresh air does the mind good.

[He gives it a minute or two, letting Steinbeck find his pace and adjusting his own longer stride to match up, hands kept tucked into his pockets.

When the sounds of the party start to fade, he'll start to speak again. His gaze stays away, watching the setting if the evening in front of them, the far shore with the dull crash of waves against the low wailing of the fall wind.]


It gets a little exhausting, to keep chosing kindness.

...

You say you want people to know you like that, but you also don't seem all that happy keeping a real bitter side of you down.

Does it just feel impossible, maybe? To think someone will want to know or understand you just exactly the way you are, without wishing you could be something else?

...It's like a chore, sometimes.

[Like the ones he did on the farm. Like the ones he did for the Guild. Rinse, repeat. Put up the broom. Take it down again. Clean himself up for a cruel world.]

You got it in one. It is impossible. I've sinned beyond measure. [Hence why God Himself wouldn't love him. A great thought to keep to his heart, stewed in religion, right?] And no one likes an angry bitter bastard like me to ruin their day. I don't want to cause more trouble than I already have.
