the grand opening of the raccoon room

Who: YOU AND YOUR BEST BUDS
What: The Grand Opening of the Raccoon Room
When: October 31st
Where: The Raccoon Room in Cellar Door

Content Warnings: N/A for now

Welcome to the Raccoon Room! Code


You find a green door on a townhouse nestled in the middle of a long, cute cobblestoned street. There's a raccoon logo emblazoned on the door. When you enter, you're greeted by sumptuous green velvet drapery, a marble statue of a familiar looking guy with devil horns on his head, and surly ticket taker (Mako, rather unhappily wearing a Victorian style vampire outfit, including vampire fangs) who will make sure that you're paying your fair share for your ticket. That's either a nice rock, a nice shell, or a beautiful feather. If you don't have anything that's worth the right amount, he'll ask for more, or give you drink tickets if you over paid. Does Mako know what makes a feather beautiful? Who knows. It's all subjective here.

You enter the venue through heavy velvet curtains. The light is dim, there are tables scattered everywhere with plush chairs and flickering candles. It's a large room, but it feels intimate. You find a seat, get a drink, or take a look around.

At 8:00pm sharp, the show begins, with Wu, dressed in his grown, flowering top hat, made by Fern, and an impeccable green tuxedo with tails, a gold cape and fake vampire teeth, takes the mic.

"Welcome, welcome to the Raccoon Room! I'm so, so, so glad that you're all here. Things are dreary and dangerous outside, but in here, sit back, relax, and enjoy yourselves."

And with that, he waves the first performer on.

Throughout the night, you'll see Scorpia and Zari Tarazi sing, Fritter (Wu's raccoon omen) and Pabu the fire ferret perform tricks, and the headliner, Ryan Akagi of Chicken Choice Judy, rock out. Wu comes up between the sets and vamps, makes jokes, and applauds the performers, adding plugs to come talk to him if you want to perform.

Over at the bar, Mako's moved on from taking tickets to making drinks. You can order any old beer, wine, or cocktail, or the Jade Dragon, a speciality absinthe cocktail Mako created for the Raccoon Room.

Feel free to top level, make your own night of it! Your esteemed host will be a bit preoccupied, but this space is for Sleepers to come, enjoy themselves, and mingle.

If your character wants to perform, let Wu know.

You got a good stage presence.

(This comes out with a thicker Maine accent than usual, but he blames it on his juice. Being around Ryan like this was infectious. Even Eddie's typical dreary cloud was starting to disperse. He was starting to realize maybe this was a good idea after all.

He relaxes, even more, when Ryan clearly plans on sticking around.

He laughs at the compliment, a bit of heat rising into his face, but he seems proud of himself all the same. He even rests a hand on his hip and cocks it to the side, looking down at himself.)


Do you? I thought it was pretty good. Funny anyway.

(He definitely remembered that costume which is precisely why he eyes Ryan's harness next and takes a sip of his juice. It was definitely super warm in here tonight.)

I like yours too. You look really good. It uh- suits you. (And to break his own feeling of awkwardness, he reaches out to give one of the harness straps a tug and snap.)

You definitely have been to gay clubs before.

[Even though stage presence is something Ryan prides himself on, he looks especially flattered to have it pointed out. He stressed out a lot about this show, and even if no one would ever know it based on the performance he gave, it means a lot to him to know it didn't show. Plus, Eddie isn't someone who would bullshit him about that kind of thing anyway.]

Yeah, man! It's perfect for you! Besides, who doesn't love a sexy nurse, right?

[He sputters out a genuine laugh when Eddie snaps one of his straps and playfully swats his hand away. He's clearly not offended though - he even turns so Eddie can see the wings, even though he definitely saw them on stage already.]

You know it! [Finger guns!] I figured if I couldn't manage to pole dance and sing and play guitar, I might as well look the part, right?

(He laughs even louder and something completely relaxes in him.)

I've never even understood that. Being a nurse is legit one of the least sexy careers ever. (But clearly he appreciated the sentiment enough to dress up as it.) The only bodily fluids I get on me at work are all the un-fun ones.

(That's so gross, Eddie, shut up. He grins to himself when he rouses a laugh out of Ryan. He keeps grinning after, looking at the wings.)

Too bad those suckers aren't real or else you could really knock 'em dead. (The idea of Ryan pole dancing while performing gets a snort from Eddie.) Careful, dude. You don't wanna get swarmed with too many groupies. I don't wanna have to treat you for genital herpes anytime soon. Oh shit - actually, you probably can't even get that anymore.

cw: ,,,stds and medical stuff also Ryan's horny I'm sorry about him

[Ryan playfully shakes his head and tsks at him. He leans in, as though this is some confidential secret.]

Eddie, Eddie...it's all about the fantasy of it! No one's thinking about real bodily fluids. They're thinking about someone hot taking care of them! Someone to examine them very closely so they can make them feel much better.

[Sure, it's not really a sexy job, but who fantasizes about things with complete accuracy?

That correction has Ryan grinning mischievously though.

Sounds like there's no reason I can't get swarmed by all the groupies I want then!

[Ryan, no.]
klussy: (happiness.)

cw: ,,,stds and medical stuff and nsfw he is SO right to be tho

Oh is that what it is. In speaking of, when was the last time you got a physical done? (Is he doing it right? He even winks at Ryan and everything. Please give him points for trying. He's reaching for the sun here.

He giggles lowly, taking a sip from his cup.)


You're so gross. (He tilts his head, obviously eying Ryan up and down with a dramatic emphasis on the gesture.) You could probably pull that off tonight.
