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

I laughed way too hard I need to see this. I LEFT THEM OPTIONAL AS JUST BEING NORMAL FLOWERS OR... NOT? depending on how one wants to take the direction of it. it'd be really fucking hard to tell for a long time since they're actually wearing real flowers. and people might just think they snuck some of the booze LOL

THIS IS WHOLESOME AND HE LOVES IT. Snacks for teaching a girl how to play fun skill games. Literally the best. He'll do his best to teach her and eventually end up juggling a whole bunch of the sticks and beanbags for her because insanely good circus acrobat/street performing clown background and he likes entertaining people. Also sometimes he likes to show off a little and it's terribly cute and wholesome.

sansa will be drinking wine but.....not that much.....she has a fairly average tolerance from being allowed a little wine at feasts growing up and a lot...more....in king's landing

she will be very impressed with his tricks!! and perhaps tell him about florian the fool that was a knight.......(altho she likes aemon dragonknight better especially now)

Alcohol makes him horrendously nauseous because lol PTSD from his childhood. He can be really judgey about it given how much of a drunk his master was, but it's okay... He might eye her wine a little bit but not say anything about it LOL. It's why the only way to ever actually get him tipsy is something like the demon flowers event prompt, but... I think he needs just wholesomeness for right now so I probably won't run with it here lmao. Maybe. We'll see.

a clown that was a knight? omg. he'll be enchanted.

if she senses it makes him uncomfortable she'll stop, she's just excited to have grapes

ser dontos soured her a little on...............all of this, but if it makes him happy she'll sing him a song about florian and jonquil.....(I don't think it's actually written down anywhere but I will look!!)

Nah, he wouldn't be very. His canon friends drink around him at parties too. It's just something he eyes a little like the old man he is and then ignores, lmao. ... ... honestly... god I'll have to see. He misses his master/father figure so much at this point of canon and it's been so long since he died that he might... actually... get a kind of conflicted nostalgia, thinking about him. LMDSKjs. "god that bastard loved his wine."

SINGING... oh no that's cute. no one's sang for him since his other, first father figure when he was little, and that's a whole ass complicated tragic can of worms. (don't ask, he has multiple dead father figures and no actual parents... they sold him, so he was told...) it doesn't even matter if it's terrible, he'd be charmed.
