closedish to cool guys having chill day
Who: a bunch of funky friends invited by Viktor and Palamedes*
What: Having a Party in a field with Fireworks
When: the second week-ish in May
Where: (the field outside of) Pal and Viktor's bunker in Gaze
Content Warnings: alcohol and teens drinking it, irresponsible use of explosives, see threads for anything else that comes up
*If you have friendly CR with Palamedes please feel free to handwave that he mentioned this happening, also if your character has CR with a Pal Friend (a pal^2) who would invite them along, he's broadly allowing this. It's not a formal affair in the slightest lmaooo

afternoon/evening.
Earlier in the morning on the day of The Fireworks Field Party (tm), Palamedes makes sure to send a quick location ping to anyone who's never been to the Sixth bunker (also tm) before, because it is, indeed, just in a field somewhere in Gaze. The treeline is comfortably distant from the door to said bunker, which is the only real indication anything is out here besides a few "big rocks" that he names, in his message, as landmarks.
As an afterthought, he has set up a little trail of mason jars containing glowing mushrooms to lead the way to The Field, helpfully. The Field is what it sounds like: a dang field, just slightly ominous in the Gaze fashion, although besides the usual somebody's-watching feeling, it's grassy and spacious for kitschy lawn games. Among the things Palamedes has provided (upon recommendation of a shopkeeper, so like, do not perceive his choices, they were made for him) include:
1. Just a load of blankets, big cozy ones dutifully spread out for chilling on, on the ground.
2. Throwing game Crossbones, definitely chosen because of the bones (they are wooden sticks), and just kind of left sitting there waiting because your host does not know how to play physical games.
3. beanbag horseshoes because it rocks
4. Just, like, a specific blanket that has pencils and blank paper sitting on it... This is a free station, no one will question what art happens here.
Harrow has also provided bone chairs for alternate seating, which are precisely what they sound like.
Eventually, the field will also feature a snack table, which is a community effort, and a booze table, which is slightly supervised in the way that your esteemed host(s) will not permit booze and cherry bombs at the same time.
And, because it's an open field in Trench, there is also a table where emergency incense is waiting. Wandering too far from the space immediately around the bunker (which, it's a big space, you'd have to go far) will eventually lead you to blood wards on the ground, on the trunks of a few trees, etc. Don't touch these. Don't be gross.
the fucken fireworks.
It's fireworks. Once it's dark, there are even more glowing mushroom jars and homemade alchemy glowsticks from Waver to be passed around, somehow, and at least some of the little beanbags glow in the dark, ooh!! Viktor has provided cherry bombs to be used with at least a little caution, for god's sake. There are also some slightly larger fireworks in much shorter supply, from a shop, that will be closely guarded until someone with pyrotechnics talent convinces Palamedes they deserve one. Godspeed.
Broadly: this is a fireworks party (tm) for individual wee ones you can throw around on your own, with only a brief smattering of the big ones that light up the whole sky above the field. It's a chill time for cool buds, fire safety is encouraged, so is vibing on the blankets and enjoying a nice evening.
At various times, local dope musician Anna Amarande will be providing some light musical entertainment, for vibes.
the bunker i guess.
The party is not in here, but for reference:
-it's locked via numpad and neither of these stickbug nerds are giving out the code but they'll open the door if asked... you don't have to leave the place to go to the bathroom lmf
-it's a bunker. it's one room and a bathroom in the back. it's full of disorganized nerd stuff and an oversized moon orb and pal's mean omen, rocky the cool rat (harpy eagle), who will aggressively flap at anyone with sticky fingers until they leave
-the code is 69420 so if you're super funny like gideon you COULD guess it

a!
and he enjoys it, he's always had a particular fondness for live music that probably goes back to his undercity roots, where it wasn't unheard of to find people performing in the streets, sometimes against any makeshift instrument they could get their hands on. so he'll be someone who wanders by on several occasions just to listen.
during one of her breaks though he has to do it. it's been killing him since he noticed, so he approaches to ask,] Hello, sorry but... do you have your bass plugged into yourself?
[what a thing to have to clarify. he's baffled and intrigued in equal measure, willing to accept being scolded if this is a rude thing to just ask someone if they are their own amplifier.]
no subject
[she flashes him a smile like this is something she's done a bunch of times before. besides, he's been having a good time here, and he's obviously one of PM's friends or he wouldn't be at the party in the first place. the point is: this is definitely not an offensive question. she tugs upward at her shirt to show the cable going into the side of her body more clearly, and if he takes a closer look he may be able to notice that her body is definitely mechanical in nature.]
[may not need that extra look with anna the blabbermouth on deck, though.
What's the point of being a cyborg if I'm not gonna make use of as much of it as possible? You definitely should've heard me when I made my debut back in January. Figured out I can do some cool stuff with my voicebox for that show. [she gives him a friendly look and brushes her hair out of her eye and behind her ear, not that it matters with the patch beneath it.] Let me guess, I'm the first one of me you've seen?
no subject
he does lean in, fascinated and actually rather delighted. aside from the tech itself the idea behind it is what does it, this adaptation to suit her needs and her whims. there's something joyful in that.]
A shame I missed it, I would have liked to hear what you managed. Did you do this customization with the amp yourself? [he pulls back after a moment more of examining, back to her face with a shake of the head.] Very much so in my world, but here I have met a couple. That said they were very cautious with that knowledge, you are the first I met who seems open with it.
no subject
[she runs a hand along her matte-black arm, then reaches down and pulls up one pant leg to show the same material there. she could probably find someone to lay down artificial skin over the parts of her body that don't have it, but that's certainly a lot of effort.]
But nah, I haven't had anyone try to mod anything yet. I could probably find someone if I really wanted to, but this whole audio interface has been there ever since I got this body. Just never had a reason to use it until recently.
no subject
Is this not your first body? [he pauses and offers,] It's a fascinating system to have installed regardless. Augmentation and robotics is not nearly as eh... sleek, in my world.
no subject
But yeah, I'm learning that maybe I did get lucky. Like, in the grand scheme of how robots get treated across every universe. Don't have to deal with anyone debating my existence or trying to forcibly shut me down. [not for the robot thing, at least.] Anyway, what's it look like for you?
