Semi-closed Tomorrowland get together

[swordandchalice.livejournal.com]

[[Invitations here, party here. Backdated to yesterday.]]

Thankfully, the kid got over his slightly painful exchange with Katou rather quickly, especially in the face of a party and seeing everyone. He hadn't heard from Demyx, but the kid was holding out hope he'd show up anyway. Seeing the Starcade games on and going made the kid grin. The "DO NOT MAKE OUT HERE" sign on Cayce's office door only made him crack up. Fine, if he and Sara got caught making out anywhere else, and someone complained, he'd point out he wasn't making out in the office.

There were tables for refreshments on the upper level, along with tables for people to sit at with food and drink. He added some sodas he'd brought along to the refreshment table, then a couple of pizzas to another table, already feeling the giddy mood of celebrating for no reason enter his system.

His "duties" done, Setsuna went to the lower level and, instead of waiting by the door like a good host, the kid, impatiently, started to play one of the games.

Artoo arrived exactly when he had said he would, and since he had been invited didn't bother to knock, instead coming straight in and whistling a greeting at the boy at the games.

Cayce had just finished plugging in the last of the game machines when she looked up and saw Artoo enter. She waved happily.

[thbbt-beep.livejournal.com]

Artoo beeped cheerfully at Cayce's wave and trundled over nearer to her.

“Foop wip?” he inquired in a pleasant, conversational sort of tone.

[swordandchalice.livejournal.com]

He roughly remembered Cayce and Sara had met when Sara arrived, and thanks to talking with Cayce after, he felt very comfortable about walking up to her with Sara on his arm (http://community.livejournal.com/dizzy_land/199345.html?thread=11936433#t11936433) and Kira trailing behind them like a drunk puppydog.

"Hey, Cayce! Look who showed up. And you're getting attacked first because you're special."

[swordandchalice.livejournal.com]

The sounds just made Setsuna smile more, and he looked away from his game to wave. "Hey, Artoo! Glad you came. What about your friend...?" He only realized after he wasn't sure if he could understand Artoo's answer, but Setsuna couldn't help wonder what happened there.

[thbbt-beep.livejournal.com]

“Bdrdldl wip!” Artoo responded cheerily. “Woo bwop bip.”

He knew that Setsuna wouldn't know what he said, but it was only polite to answer when you were asked question.

[swordandchalice.livejournal.com]

"It ain't my set-up, Cayce did it all," the kid said honestly. "Let her know you like her hard work." He grinned all the same, and, of course, looked away from the game to look Kira as he did.

"Wanna go a couple of rounds with me?"

Katou wasn't quite used to the time thing here, and because he hadn't spent the night in the Auditorium, and had gone to Fay's shop in the morning to make some food, he was sure he was late. Especially when he ran home to the auditorium to drop off his guitar and realized that Setsuna and Kira weren't there.

He ran as fast as he could to Starcade without spilling the food, and slowed down right before he entered and... well, blinked.

Turned out he wasn't late at all.

"I brought gyudon (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gyudon)," he said, feeling sheepish for thinking himself late.

[swordandchalice.livejournal.com]

As he had for everyone else, Setsuna smiled, turned and was about to wave to Katou and welcome him, until it dawned on the kid what Katou had said.

"What?" Wide-eyed he looked over to the food and saw, sure enough, it was beef. It was made the way that made him think of home. It was gyodon.

"Where the did you get that from?" the kid demanded, even as his stomach growled, bringing a light blush to his cheeks.

[katoustheshit.livejournal.com]

"I cooked it," said Katou. He grinned when he heard Setsuna's stomach growl. "Where should I put it?"

You had to take the parties where - and when - you could get them, around here. Kira had invited Logan, despite being a non-Tomorrowland resident, and Logan didn't want to be rude. Especially not if there was an off-chance of alcohol and/or girls he hadn't met yet.

He swaggered in at what he hoped was a fashionably late moment, and leaned against a convenient video game to scan the room.

[swordandchalice.livejournal.com]

Setsuna, who had left off the video games to greet people and start eating, looked up when Logan came in and smiled. He didn't know who had invited him, but figured someone had and waved. "Hey, Logan. Moonshine's on the upper level." Considering Logan's own party, Setsuna had already deciphered he liked alcohol.

"Sorry we couldn't get anything else, though. You know how it is around here."

[a-good-man.livejournal.com]

Daniel came in carrying two bowls and a plastic bag. In the plastic bag was a bottle of the latest batch of moonshine, and in the bowls was some homemade (sort of) Chex-mix.

“Hooch and salty food!” he declared.

[katoustheshit.livejournal.com]

"Did I hear hooch?" Katou asked, heading up to Daniel.

Demyx wandered in ungracefully late and as quietly as possible. He found himself a relatively traffic-free corner and kept his mouth shut and his guitar case tucked close to his body. Really the only reason he brought it at all was that it had become a sort of security blanket over time he'd had it.

Likewise, the only real reason he was there was to see Setsuna, so he waited patiently, praying to old Leviathan that no one would see him since he was all dressed in black.

"Camouflage," he thought nervously, "They won't see me..."

[swordandchalice.livejournal.com]

As at Logan's party, after a while, Setsuna started to go around and look for people trying to hide away and play wallflower, which is when he spotted Demyx. So, he came.

Grinning, the blond grabbed a glass of moonshine and walked over.

"Here, I already had some, this is for you if you want to try it," Setsuna said, and warned, "the taste is awful though. Drink at your own risk. And glad you showed up."

He half wanted to introduce Demyx to people, but if he was so shy he was hiding out, it might be best to do this slowly.

[katoustheshit.livejournal.com]

It was the guitar case that caught Katou's attention.

"Hey," he said. "What's that?" he gestured at it.

[a-lonely-god.livejournal.com]

The Doctor strode through the front door with his hands in his trouser pockets and his coat billowing behind him in its usual way.

“Sure are a lot of parties around here,” he observed to no one in particular, looking around.

[swordandchalice.livejournal.com]

"'Cause there's little else to do," Setsuna chirped as he went to greet the Doctor. "Doctor, hi~! Been a while." He thought, but wasn't even too sure with how much went on. "How are you managing here?"

[saintlyheart.livejournal.com]

While Sara had tried to make herself look presentable for this party, she had slightly lost track of time -- although not by much. Once she felt ready, she was immediately on her way to Tomorrowland. Arriving upon the scene, she glimpsed around with searching eyes for Setsuna, trying to lend a smile to everyone else who was already there and looking her way. She really didn't recognize most of the people, though.

However, that was all right! She could always meet them herself with this party in place and already moving along. She walked in and looked in between and around people, calling out, "Setsuna? I'm here!"

[swordandchalice.livejournal.com]

When Setsuna heard Sara's voice, he perked up and followed the sound at once, only...he still had Kira following him around, which was, in Setsuna's point of view, best. He wanted Kira to move on and sleep with someone already, but not while drunk. It was...that was.... He didn't like it.

His sheepish explanation to Sara about why Kira was around him, though, was to point at Kira and claim, "He's attached."

And then Setsuna hugged her and started pointing to the guests.

"I'll introduce you to anyone you think looks interesting. Or anyone, really. They're all good people. But just so you know, the little robot rolling around is Artoo (http://community.livejournal.com/dizzy_land/199345.html?thread=11819441#t11819441). He's got drinks, soda, if you want. That lady over there is Cayce (http://community.livejournal.com/dizzy_land/199345.html?thread=11823793#t11823793). We've used her shower a couple of times. She's very intelligent, and the person that set up the radio thing. And she keeps a census of the park residents. In case you ever want to find anyone. She's also the one that set this place up for the party."

He took a deep breath and pointed over at John then. "That's John Crichton (http://community.livejournal.com/dizzy_land/199345.html?thread=11847857#t11847857). Smart, but not in a boring way. Very easy to get along with and upbeat. The get together was his idea.

"Over here we have Logan (http://community.livejournal.com/dizzy_land/199345.html?thread=11855537#t11855537). He's...kinda like Senpai, but he seems all right. He's funny, at least. He doesn't live here, so I'm assuming someone invited him. Then there's Starbuck (http://community.livejournal.com/dizzy_land/199345.html?thread=11859377#t11859377) and her dog, Sador. The dog's a sweetie. Starbuck is kinda blunt, and very bold. I like her, though." Of course he would, considering he could understanding someone like that so easily.

"Then there's Daniel (http://community.livejournal.com/dizzy_land/199345.html?thread=11867057#t11867057). He's one of John's friends, and he helps make the moonshine everyone drinks around here. Err...." Maybe mentioning that was a mistake.

"Over there with the guitar case is Demyx (http://community.livejournal.com/dizzy_land/199345.html?thread=11896241#t11896241). He's kinda anti-social, but he's very nice. Friend of mine. He hangs around Tomorrowland and hasn't settled anywhere yet.

"And there's the Doctor (http://community.livejournal.com/dizzy_land/199345.html?thread=11929777#t11929777). He doesn't live here either, so I'm assuming someone invited him. He's a little on the strange side, but pretty smart, and easy to get along with." Actually, Setsuna had to add, with a sweet smile, "He's sweet. He liked feeding the ducks with me.

"Anyhow, that's everyone, so if you need anything, you have an idea who to go to. Now...who would you like to be introduced to?"

((Sorry, guys, really busy all weekend!))

Virgil knew he was late to the party, but he and Richie had been up all night playing videogames on Richie's gameboy and he'd slept in really late. He'd finally woken up, gotten dressed in his civilian clothes, and made his way to the party, which was easy to find due to all the noise.

"Better late than never," he said, looking around.

[thbbt-beep.livejournal.com]

"Beedoo!" Artoo said, approaching the new arrival and offering a drink. "Boo wip?"
