New Year's Starting Event B-SIDE~ WHO: Everyone else WHERE: Lower Plate WHEN: New Year's Eve, 7:00 PM WHY: It's time to get this show on the road!
Away from all the pomp and circumstance of the Upper Plate, people were ringing in the new year the best way they knew how. Colorful sparklers, pale smokeballs and roman candles were going off in the streets, while all of the popular pubs in the Lower Plate were quite crowded. It seemed almost like every person of legal age to drink was gathered in the smoke-filled, cheery rooms, but a glance outside showed families and children gathering by the harbors to sit picnic-like, eating and drinking in preparation for the fireworks show on the shore. The larger, more successful boats often had some friendly competition over the best show, and this year's display promised to be as enjoyable as the last.
Inside the Prohibition, just one bar full of people partaking in the festivities, Ruhe sat nursing a drink quietly by a window and watching the rowdier patrons, amusement crinkling his eyes and contentment softening his smile. As always, though, his ears were pricked for any news that might make the coming year a bit brighter and more profitable.
(OOC: Don't let the Upper Plate show you up! Party hard and feel free to mingle and drink~)
