Bring Your Parents To Fun Night
Who: Ben, OT anyone
Where: Avarice
When: Monday, March 8th
What: Much like the hair-metal thread... it's just some goofy fun. To once again quote Chapelle's Show: It's a celebration, bitches... enjoy yourselves.

Benjamin Bale occasionally had some... rather odd ideas for themed nights at Avarice. One of his finer moments had been 80s Hair Metal Night. Well... this one? Had the potential to be as memorable, but possibly for horrific reasons altogether.

Yes, tonight was Bring Your Parents Night at Avarice. Any teen that brought at least one parent to to the club would be entitled to free drinks for the evening. Why this odd choice of themes?

Well. First and foremost, Ben loved people's money. And if he could find a way to bring MORE people into Avarice by showing parents that they COULD hang there without seeming skeevy, and show kids that their parents could hang there and not have to slice their coolness factor in half... bingo. More customers.

Then of course... there was the primary reason for this. The humor. Ben knew that everyone around here had been through a LOT lately, and sometimes, nothing helped more than some laughter, and good memories. And really: other than seeing people reliving the glory days of Poison and Winger (actually, did Winger HAVE glory days?), what could be funnier than watching the kids that normally swagger through the club with Ben-level cockiness looking freaked out and having a wiggins because their parents were there either being the world's funniest cockblocks, or god forbid, getting their OWN groove things going?

Oh, hell yes. This had so much hilarious potential that Ben couldn't resist. Even if it DID put him in the same vicinity as the parents of roughly half of the girls he'd tried to bed in the last year.

What the heck was she thinking? When Buffy had heard about Avarice having a 'Bring Your Parents' night, she had foolishly said something in front of her mother, which caused said mother to practically insist upon the both of them coming. Talk about fun right there. Still, Buffy held her head up high as she and her mother came inside. Besides, it wasn't like her actual main hangout, Eden, was going to do something like this ANY time soon.

"So Mom," she said as they walked inside. "What do you think?"

	"What?" Joyce found herself questioning, and leaning in a bit closer to her daughter, when she realized Buffy had said something to her, but because of the noise level inside the place it made it hard for the older woman to catch exactly what her daughter said. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Buffy managed to refrain from laughing at the sight of her mother in a rock club, mostly because she was WITH her, which truly made it not funny at all. "What do you think of this place?" Buffy asked a little louder. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"This is where you like to hang out?" She asked with a raised voice so that her daughter would be able to hear her clearly. Avarice wasn't exactly her cup of tea, and Joyce had to wonder if perhaps half the crowd in the club weren't deaf from the sound level of the music playing. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"One of the places, yeah!" Buffy said back to her mother, also in a raised voice. Luckily, as a Slayer, she didn't need to worry about things like hearing loss. It was nice, actually. Of course, Buffy couldn't take her mother to the other place she hung out at in a million years. Too much supernatural stuff hung out at Eden for her mother to survive the night with her sanity intact.

	"You're sister doesn't come here, does she?" Buffy was old enough to really do her own thing, and she was a slayer after all, but Dawn was another thing, and in Joyce's mind a place like Avarice was quite the unsuitable place for a young girl of her younger daughter's age.

	"It's either the worst idea for a theme night since 'Dress as your Favorite Village Person' or it's comedy gold. I haven't figured out which, yet." She frowned. "Then again, that was comedy gold, too. Five hundred people in a club, wearing one of five costumes ... " (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"That was pretty damn hilarious," Lilly said with a laugh. Normally, she wasn't one to just walk up and talk to people, but this was Lexi, someone that she really needed to get to know, both for Ginny and Stephanie's sake, so here she was, conversing and everything. Paige would be proud, or burst out laughing. "So, how you holding up?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Bronte!" Grant beamed happily, honestly figuring this would be a hilarious, if personally uneventful night. "Wasn't expecting this... what brings you in so soon?" Still, by the grin, the tone, and the kiss that followed? He clearly wasn't complaining. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"The unexpected is what surprises are all about." The blonde smiled once she had gotten the man's attention. "Well, I figured since you couldn't seem to manage a moment away from the city I'd have to take the initiative." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
