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.

[ Kind of scary too if she was being honest. ]
The furthest I've been out of my state is Missouri when I was visiting some friends there. That's about it.
no subject
[It's been so long since he could talk astronomy - please forgive him.]
And... now Trench. You could probably count that, if you wanted.
no subject
[Most talk about astronomy would go over her head so it's all good.]
Guess I could count it? Even if I didn't exactly have a choice in coming here.
no subject
[On the other hand, Hunk could probably talk to anyone with ease.]
If you want to count it, I say do it.
no subject
[Even if Amos did come off a bit abrasive to her at first.]
Then I'll count it. [Laurel nods with a smile.] Do you enjoy what you do back home?
no subject
[He shakes his head, a bit bemused.]
It... space travel, exploration. It was my life. So - yeah. Yeah, you could say so.
no subject
[She's not going to get into the difficulties of her own journey.]
There was a time when I wanted to be a police officer. Like my dad. But he wouldn't have it.
no subject
[And you know. Before everything went to hell on that mission.]
No? Why not?
no subject
[So they were really behind where she's from.]
Overprotective father of two daughters. He made us take self defense classes at a young age.
no subject
[Listen, it's a little fuzzy - he knows the rough dates, because he's a nerd like that.]
Ah, that kind of person. Well, hey, at least you've got training.
no subject
[Look, Laurel is used to working with people who get nerdy about certain things.]
I don't regret doing the training at all. It's been useful. [A smile.] But my dad's proud of what I do so it worked out.
no subject
[Absurdly excited, to be honest.]
That's good to hear. I'm glad for you.
Okay for me to wrap this up? c:
[She gives him a smile.]
Anyway, I should probably get back to watch the rest of the show. It was really nice to meet you, Shiro. I hope we can talk again.
Sure!
