Action :: Forward dated to Early Evening
[The Blood Shack has been redecorated for the evening. The lighting is red and the decor is very Moulin Rouge. The bar has had a facelift of sorts and in the spirit of a costume party is featuring 'candy' flavored shots such as Skittles, Sweet tarts, Caramel Apples, Nerds and Tootsie Rolls. All other 'normal' drinks are available at the bar as well as a selection of synthetic blood. The decor continues in the seating arrangements. The entire room, including the dance floor, stage and platform where Eric's throne sits is bathed in red light. Lording over the entire affair is Eric, dressed as a Viking king. Instead of the helm, he's got a crown made of gold foil and cardboard. His weapons are the plastic sort and he's opted to go bare chested rather than attempting to make any sort of chain mail. He has a faux polar bear throw across his shoulders and is wearing a long, blond wig as well as a fake beard.

Enjoy, mingle and come as you want to be.]

ooc:: Mingle, start threads and make general merriment. This is all pre-blackout. On Thursday evening, I will put up a post blackout thread. Any questions? Let me know

	[He gives her a sheepish little smile.] I'm not sure that's the right word to use. It looks plain next to you. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	fields_of_hope 2012-10-24 01:17 am UTC (link)
	Not at all. [She reaches up to trace the embroidery on his tunic.] It suits you very well. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	beamspams 2012-10-24 02:13 am UTC (link)
	I'm not saying it doesn't. I'm just saying you wear your costume a lot better than I do. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[She smiles and stretches up to kiss his cheek.] You would say that if I wore a garbage bag, I have a feeling. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[He laughs.] It'd be true if you wore a garbage bag. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Another kiss for that one, Sir. And then she'll just drag you toward the dance floor.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[He likes the kiss. But he wasn't expecting to be led by the hand to--] --you want me to dance? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	fields_of_hope 2012-10-25 05:48 pm UTC (link)
	I want us to dance. [Fixed that for ya. And are you really going to complain when Lacus is wrapping herself around you?] And then I expect I'll want you to take me home. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	beamspams 2012-10-25 09:05 pm UTC (link)
	[Oh, uh. No. No, he's not. He's trying not to read too much into taking her home as he settles his hands on her hips.] ...all right. I think I can manage that much. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[She didn't think so. Her arms drape over his shoulders as she casually leans against him. She may have let Sougo give her a drink or two, nothing too terrible but sufficient to loosen her up, so reading into her words wouldn't be objectionable just now.] I should hope so. It would only be the chivalrous thing to do. [There's a hint of suggestiveness in that reference to his costume, yep.]

	It would, wouldn't it? [His muted smile as he steps slightly back, taking one of her hands off of his shoulder - but only so he can bow over it and press his lips to the back of her hand.] Then I'll just have to do as milady asks. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[She beams at the gesture, finding it adorable and gallant at once.] What a gentleman. I suppose I'll have to put some effort into convincing you to cast off your genteel exterior and entertain some less refined impulses. [Don't you just love when she flirts all proper-like?] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	beamspams 2012-10-26 09:46 pm UTC (link)
	[It certainly makes him pause for a moment. Is she saying that? Uh, yes she is. Okay. He manages a somewhat sheepish smile.] ...I think you might be able to convince me of that. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	fields_of_hope 2012-10-26 11:08 pm UTC (link)
	[Her arms drape around his shoulders again and Lacus just smiles. She quite likes this new experience they're having, and though he seems tentative in a way, she's sure it's only Kira wondering after her readiness to pursue such things.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	beamspams 2012-10-27 03:52 am UTC (link)
	[Yep. He knows what he wants. He also knows that after having loved someone else so fiercely, he doesn't want to be just a replacement. He doesn't want to push her into something she's not ready for. But he kisses her anyway.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	fields_of_hope 2012-10-28 02:01 am UTC (link)
	[Kira could never be a replacement, for anyone. She hopes he knows that, and if not she'll do whatever she can to show that it's true. And she'll start be responding to that kiss, sparing no mind for their very public setting.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	beamspams 2012-10-28 10:15 pm UTC (link)
	[He does know that. But love can be tricky like that. He pulls back just a bit.] I think people are watching. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	fields_of_hope 2012-10-29 03:58 pm UTC (link)
	People have other things to watch. [Shyness, that thing she never quite learned. But she has enough empathy to not push him on.] But we could go somewhere people aren't watching, if you like. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	beamspams 2012-10-29 05:17 pm UTC (link)
	If you're all right with it, I don't have a problem. [But maybe they could go somewhere people aren't watching later.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	fields_of_hope 2012-10-31 12:58 am UTC (link)
	Mm. [She kisses him again, a short and chaste one this time, for his comfort. A faster, swing song comes on, and Lacus pulls back to grin happily. She does so love dancing; time to use that natural quickness on your feet, Ultimate Coordinator.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	beamspams 2012-11-01 02:30 am UTC (link)
	[He has perfect quickness and agility, Lacus. That doesn't mean he knows how to dance. But he picks up on things quickly.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	fields_of_hope 2012-11-02 02:49 am UTC (link)
	[Good thing too, because she wasn't going to take no for an answer. But she will let him lead, so that's something at least. And she takes every chance she can get to twirl in close to him.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	beamspams 2012-11-03 02:12 am UTC (link)
	[He really doesn't know how to dance. But he is quick and agile on his feet, and good at improvising. But he likes the bit where she comes in close and he can squeeze her hip more possessively.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	fields_of_hope 2012-11-04 03:06 am UTC (link)
	[Possessiveness isn't something she's used to in Kira, but she's not finding it objectionable. Quite the opposite, and so when a quick turn brings her in close her arms slide around him. She's close enough for another kiss, even though all she does is say his name, softly.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	beamspams 2012-11-04 06:34 pm UTC (link)
	[And it's not something he does often. Just sometimes. When he wants her to feel wanted, even needed. He hears her murmur his name, and leans down to plant his lips to hers even as their feet keep moving.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
