Pride Saturday: OPEN to all
Who: OPEN for multiple threads
What: Wingbeat for Pride weekend
Where: Wingbeat
When: Saturday, July 4th
Rating: NSFW probably

Saturday brought more rainbows, glitter and an even wider array of Pride-themed decorations to the club as more individuals brought in things from their various celebrations over the days. Wingbeat was just as filled with people as it had been for the previous days of the Pride celebration, and perhaps even more so, considering that it was now officially the weekend. The party was obviously still going strong, if the continuation of music, dancing and drinking were anything to go by.

Dominic raised an eyebrow in response and shrugged one glittery blue shoulder. "Depends, I suppose, whether you're good drunk or bad drunk." The smile seemed to suggest she wasn't a maudlin or aggressive drunk, at least. He took a sip of his own drink, considering. "I will probably be a bit drunk when I finish this," he judged. "More so if I finish it fast."

There were still people all around them, and Dominic shifted his hips away from the curious hand belonging to someone trying to squeeze past. "Did you do anything else for Pride this year, or is it just tonight?" he asked. He had no idea what Dora's sexuality might be, but she must have noticed all the rainbows so she was probably comfortable with the idea of Pride, even if it was from the outside - or else she didn't know what they meant.

Dora squinted at her drink. "This is my... third? In the last couple hours. I think." It could be more. She didn't make a habit of counting. It was too depressing. Besides she had built a high tolerance over the last few years, especially for her size. Though she had had some water after the last drink.

She shrugged at his question. "Pride is all well and good, I guess. I mostly came for the drinks and dancing." Even if she preferred a different sort of dancing. "I don't really know why we need to celebrate all of it, most people I know don't really care who you kiss unless it's someone you're trying to hide."

Dora knew she didn't care, never had. She'd kissed a couple girls but that was it, nothing to write home about but that was most people for her. "It is quite the party though."

"Really?" Dominic asked, surprised. What little he knew about Pandora suggested a pureblood upbringing, which didn't exactly suggest tolerance and open-mindedness. "My parents would care, if they knew." It wasn't something he usually talked about, but he felt strangely called upon to defend Pride as a movement, even if he didn't usually participate heavily. "They're Christian," he added. "So dad's completely against it and mom takes a 'hate the sin, love the sinner' kind of attitude - which means she's okay with people being gay, as long as they don't do anything to act on it." Neither of which was exactly encouraging him to come out anytime soon.

He took a larger sip of his drink, and shrugged. "There's still a long way to go," he finished, with less fervour. "I honestly don't know how it works in the wizarding world, but we've only just got civil partnerships for same sex couples..." Dominic trailed off as the music rose to a crescendo before the song finished. "But I didn't come here to talk politics," he amended sheepishly. "I came here to drink and dance - so can I whisk you onto the dancefloor before I piss you off with my opinions?"

Her eyebrows raised a bit as she regarded him. "Some things are more acceptable than others. I have an aunt whose wife has always been part of my family, though." She shrugged. She wouldn't get into the more scandalous nature of her mother's family, though everyone knew the Black family tree was more of a messy bush than anything else. Granted, it was less acceptable usually to have someone of less than pure blood, though her father's family was more known for not caring as much. "That's too bad. Parents should just love you no matter what." She took a long drink, using it to cover the pang to her heart that her mother didn't really care for her anymore, even though for vastly different reasons. "Ahh. That explains that in part. Though i always thought it preached love and love alike or whatever." She shrugged, too drunk to remember most of what she'd read over the years. "Too bad, though."

She smiled a bit. "I think you'd be surprised, if you looked a bit more at the wizarding world." She shrugged again. "I mean, Dumbledore preferred men, it wasn't a huge deal. My aunts have been bonded since their twenties and have several kids. As long as you can provide an heir somehow..." She gestured vaguely with her drink. "Sure, that'd be great," she said, and she drained the rest of her drink in one go, grinning at him when she finished. "I'm not as good at this dancing as other sorts, but I'll manage." She figured she'd warn him though.

"They do," Dominic said quickly. He loved his parents, and they loved him. They just... wouldn't understand. They wouldn't understand that he didn't seem to have a fully monogamous bone in his body, either. It was just a fact of life - it didn't mean they didn't love him, it just meant they didn't understand his choices. And, since he didn't intend to settle down with man or woman, they didn't really need to be informed of them. He shrugged. A nightclub was not the right venue for a bible discussion, nor for Dominic to try to explain the complicated relationship he had with religion and spirituality.

Dominic nodded seriously as he listened, wanting to press for more and more information, but also cognizant of the fact that a little drunk and in a loud club was far from the idea situation for it. "Let's table the conversation for now and go dance," he confirmed, holding out a hand to her. "And honestly, I doubt there's enough room to worry about being 'good'."

Dora grinned, easily pulled from a conversation right now because, well, dancing seemed like a keen idea and she was a little bit drunk and distractable right now. She downed her drink and stuck the wand in her hair before slipping her hand into his, letting him pull her out onto the dance floor. She laughed softly. "That is true. So. Many. People!"

She moved to the beat, having had enough drinks to not feel too self conscious or care what others felt too much. It was warm in here, and she was flushed, but having quite a bit of fun especially since she sort of knew Dom and thought he was quite a nice guy and handsome to boot.
