[Day 216] [BASEBALL - mingle]
[PLAY BALL!

Or cheerlead.

Or watch.

Or heckle.

It's an event everyone can enjoy!

There are some traditional snacks on hand. No alcohol sadly, but you can still have soda, hot dogs, and popcorn among other things. The bleachers provide enough seating for those who want to see exactly how vampires, humans, demons, mutants, etc. all play together. Not to mention some of them only recently even learned what baseball was. Never a dull moment at least.

In the end, it's the Flying Knights who win in this fairly evenly matched game, but there was some impressive action for both teams It should be an interesting season.]

(OOC: MINGLE! This is event style! Just put in your header whether your character is in the crowd, the purple dragons, the flying knights, cheerleading, before the game, or after the game or any combination! Please assume there was adequate IC announcement of this event!

Backdated to earlier in the day. Roster. It is not yet updated with recent additions from the last Yuuri post.)

	Yes, of course! [She swings her legs back out and sits up.] I didn't want to get started without you. [And also, she didn't trust herself not to draw something ridiculously gooey the moment she walked in the door.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ She takes a long sip from her glass, breathing a sigh and laughing a little when she's done. ] That hit the spot. Bulls-eye, straight down the middle, target nuked from orbit. Shit is gone, dead, deceased. And the satisfaction of it all is the only thing left. Let's grab some crayons or whatever and paper and get started. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Calliope goes to a cabinet and pulls out the art supplies, setting down the box of colored pencils and the ream of paper. She gives some to Roxy, and some sheets for herself.] Here we are! Time to plan your cosplay. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	retrogame 2013-05-01 11:36 pm UTC (link)
	[ Roxy settles at the table, taking the black pencil crayon and starting on it. She begins with drawing the legs and skirt. She does it very slowly and carefully. ] Man, should we keep it simple or go all-out? I've never sewn a damn thing, besides some tears in my toys. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ophiuchus 2013-05-01 11:38 pm UTC (link)
	Let's go all-out. If there's anything we can't manage ourselves, surely someone around will be able to help. [Calliope's strokes are far more certain and sure. Though there's a natural roughness to her style, she's already lightly sketching out Roxy as a base for her new wizsona.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	retrogame 2013-05-01 11:42 pm UTC (link)
	[ She nods, turning back to her drawing. She gives herself a pleated skirt, because those are cute, and... has no idea what to do with the top. ] Yeah, you're right... it's nothing we can't learn, either. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ophiuchus 2013-05-01 11:47 pm UTC (link)
	Exactly! We can work out the practical issues later. Go for style. [She fills out Roxy's face on her drawing with great care.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	retrogame 2013-05-02 01:51 am UTC (link)
	[ She ends up giving it all a real wizardly... poncho. There are stars drawn on it, and she adds them to the skirt too. That's cute, right??? It's unconventional. She tops it all off with a big hat with a wide brim. And a feather. A peacock tail feather. Fuck yeah. ] Style... okay. There we go. I think I'm done? What do you think of this one? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ophiuchus 2013-05-02 02:03 am UTC (link)
	[Calliope leans over and inspects it.] It's lovely! What's the name for this sort of garment up here? [She taps the poncho. This is now Calliope's Diplomacy Hour.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	retrogame 2013-05-02 02:07 am UTC (link)
	A poncho. [ She wonders if she should have drawn under the poncho, too. Whatevs. She drinks from her glass. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ophiuchus 2013-05-02 02:09 am UTC (link)
	Interesting! [Calliope slowly scoots the drawing closer to herself, and then she starts rendering it in painstaking Calliope Style on the pre-sketched Roxy model.] I've never heard of ponchos before. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	retrogame 2013-05-02 02:13 am UTC (link)
	Really? Never woulda thunk it was some obscure item of clothing, but makes sense you wouldn't know it. I dunno. It's like a cape but way cuter. [ Sip sip. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ophiuchus 2013-05-02 02:16 am UTC (link)
	[Calliope pauses at the mention of and comparison to capes.] Hold that thought for just a moment! [She puts her pencil down, and then disappears into one of the bedrooms.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	retrogame 2013-05-02 02:19 am UTC (link)
	Okay! I'm not goin' anywhere. [ Roxy wonders what's up, but takes advantage of the time alone to down her drink and pour another. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[Calliope returns, holding something behind her back.]

So, um, what I'm about to show you is purely theoretical! I can't tell you whether or not you make it to god tier, but I was able to determine the traditional Rogue outfit and Void colors. So...

[She pulls a drawing of God Tier Roxy out from behind her back and presents it shyly to ~~senpai~~ Roxy. Aside from the outfit's canonical accuracy, the drawing also has pink butterfly wings.]

[ Roxy takes up the paper, looking it over with a wide grin on her face. Her eyes are glued to the drawing. ]

Oh my god?? Callie, you are hella fucking talented. Look at that. I'm a fuckin' thief in the night, bandit mask on and gloves done up tight. Unreal, unthinkable, but the world hasn't yet met jewel thief extraordinaire Ro to the Lal. I'm gonna steal the void right out from under the warden's noses, pick that shit up and pretend it was mine all along. It's gorgeous. Can I keep it?

	[Calliope is very flustered and pleased.] Yes, absolutely! I'm terribly glad you like it. [She beams, going to sit back down to work on the drawing.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	retrogame 2013-05-02 04:16 am UTC (link)
	Fuck yeah. This is going on my wall. [ She grins back, setting it carefully down. Roxy looks it over for a moment longer before leaning over and watching Calliope draw. ] Is it okay to watch, or does that make you nervous? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ophiuchus 2013-05-02 04:21 am UTC (link)
	[Calliope pauses. She hadn't actually thought to be nervous until Roxy said something and started really staring closely.] Um. I've never had anyone try watching me draw before. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	retrogame 2013-05-02 04:31 am UTC (link)
	[ Oh. Right. ] Oops. Just, uh. Ignore me. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ophiuchus 2013-05-02 04:40 am UTC (link)
	[She gives her friend a smile, and goes back to drawing. But more self-consciously and carefully now.] I could never ignore you, dear. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	retrogame 2013-05-02 05:34 am UTC (link)
	[ Roxy tries not to breathe down her neck, but it's so cool to see her actually drawing. Art is happening right before her very eyes. ] Well, you know what I mean-- just don't worry about me. Um. Watching. Just be natural. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ophiuchus 2013-05-02 05:38 am UTC (link)
	Right... [It is a little nervous-making, but she still feels comfortable enough around Roxy in general that it's not AS bad as it could be.] [Pardon her while she finishes up the outlines and then starts coloring everything.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	retrogame 2013-05-06 06:43 am UTC (link)
	[ Trying to be a little more subtle about her staring, she slowly... takes a sip of her drink without looking up. ] (Reply to this) (Parent)
