Day 241 | Video | Action--Open Mingle
[There is a very tall, pale, blonde man on the screen. He's wearing dark clothes and his blonde hair is slicked back. He gives the camera a charming smile. ]

I understand we're to be inundated with visitors today. I also understand that a sudden arrival here can be a disconcerting and that often requires a drink. I invite everyone to come have a drink at the Blood Shack in sector four. We've got a wide variety of drinks, both ordinary and unusual.

Come spend your day with us at the Blood Shack. We'd be delighted to have you.

[ The video clicks off.

Those that decide to take Eric up on his invitation, will find the Blood Shack up and running. During the day, a few bots can be found doing some of the mundane things like delivering drinks to tables, but during the evening Eric will be behind the bar and the presence of bots is reduced. The bar itself is dimly lit with small tables and booths places about. There's a dance floor and a stage with a pole at one end. The other end of the stage is occupied by what can only be called a throne, which Eric occupies when Spike is behind the bar. There is also a jukebox that customers can play. ]

[ooc: feel free to use this as an open mingle. I've turned off comments so if you want to speak directly to Eric, comment there.]

[ How in the world was a girl not supposed to react to being called 'pretty girl' by a boy she was hard-core crushing on? It's pretty much a universal impossibility. So when Dawn turns around, she's smiling brightly and she slides her arms up around his shoulders while she continues dancing. Because of course she thinks he's there to dance with her. ]

Hey you. Look at us, you and me, getting our dance on? It's the best part of today so far.

Can you call moving your feet back and forth dancing? [The reaction is a good one and he's happy to have been the cause of it. ]

You so can. Have you ever been to a school dance? It's totally cool there.

[ She's so good at reassuring him, right? Dawn is just going to start dancing around him like she's the dancer and he's the pole. Sorry Peter. Or... not so sorry. She sways her hips, dips, one hand on his shoulder while the other slips up into her hair. Dancing is a thing she does well. ]

[He lets out a nervous chuckle, unsure what to do besides stand there and try not to make things too awkward.] Uhm...uh...yeah-yeah. A couple. They...this is better.

[The last word 'better' comes out a bit of a squeak, breaking at the end because she has one hand in his hair and she's dancing up against him and dear God he hopes no one is watching them. ]

Newsflash, I like you too Peter Parker.

[ She practically beams at being told that this is better than any dance. That meant he liked being around her instead of a room full of possible dance partners. Plus, he's so adorable, maybe even more adorable, in all his awkwardness. Dawn turns around so her back is to Peter as she continues to dance. She reaches back to take one of his hands in hers and bring it around her waist to her stomach. ]

[He doesn't really have a lot of time to respond to that, but he manages to get out a stammered reply.] Ye-yeah? I mean...That's...yeah. Cool

[Gulp. Yeah. She's going to kill him and force him to walk out of here funny. He's not in the least bit upset about this. In fact, his hands go to her hipbones, fingers pressing lightly as he pulls her closer, his head bowing to bury in the crown of her hair.]

[ There he goes, pulling her close with his hands there. And even while dancing she can feel the warmth of his breath in her hair. She likes that. And now that she got him doing something on the dance floor too, she'll just keep right on dancing with him. Her free hand goes back up to cup the back of his neck, her fingers curling into the hair there. ]

[ Dear Dawn, you are seriously turning on a seventeen year old virgin who's had one girlfriend.

Don't stop.

He bites his bottom lip, his fingers tightening on her hips when her hand goes up to the back of his neck. Sure, he's not moving much, but he is kind of doing this back and forth sway thing and very clearly enjoying being a dance pole. ]

[ Dawn doesn't stop. She doesn't stop right through two more songs until she needs a break and her skin is glistening with the slightest sheen of perspiration. She grabs Peter's hand and they walk off of the dance floor. Because surely if she's done then he is too. Like he'd want to dance with anyone else, pssshhh!

She stops at the bar, waiting for a tender to notice her so she can get some water. She lets go of his hand finally and lifts her hair up off of the back of her neck and smiles at him.
] That was fun! Thanks for being my dance partner. It's so much more fun having someone to dance with.

[ Peter stays close to Dawn as they walk off the dance floor, his eyes on the back of her neck as they make their way over to the bar. He bites his bottom lip, watching her as she lifts her hair off the back of her neck. Almost without conscious thought, he reaches out, his fingers ghosting over the curve of her neck before he slides his hand to the back of her neck and pulls her closer, dipping his head to press a kiss to her neck, tasting the sweat on her skin.]

[ She's about to start another ramble (or continue rambling) but then Peter touches her, and then he's kissing her. And while she's stiff with surprise for a moment, because no one ever actually wanted to kiss her in public, even Xander, she kind of melts into it after a few seconds. Her hand slips to the side of his face and slides back into his hair as she's' suddenly pressed against him, her lips parting beneath his to deepen the kiss. ]

[ Making out in public is kind of new to Peter as well, but it's not something he thought about. It's something he feels and needs. The kiss deepens and he sighs into it, one hand sliding up her back to tangle in her hair. His other hand presses against the small of her back, keeping her pressed up against him.]

[ When the kiss finally does break, mostly because she needs to come up for air, she stays very close, too close, doesn't move from where she's pressed against him. But her brow rests against his. And if there were ever a moment to just let an awesome moment be, this would be it. But this is Dawn. And she has to comment on it. ]

Wow. Like... super wow. I mean in the land of best moments that was the best of the best. Wow. Right?

[ Peter is short of breath as well and he's okay with resting his forehead against hers, his eyes still closed. At her words, a grin creeps over his lips and he opens his eyes to look at her. ]

Definitely a wow. Yeah. Best of the best. Sorry, I just...really wanted to kiss you then. That's--that's okay? Right?

[ She nods quickly, still staying as up in his personal space as is humanly possible. Nope, she's not moving yet. ]

That's so okay that I might insist you do it again... multiple times over at some point. Not yet cause... breathing. But you should probably start gearing up for more kissage.

[ He is totally okay with this development as long as she's not minding some of the development that her position brings. He keeps one hand at the small of her back while the other presses lightly between her shoulder blades. ]

I'll start getting ready for that. Although, he nods slightly toward the bar. ]</small>

I think those are our bottled waters. We could...go somewhere else if you want. I mean...we don't have to, but some place more...private if--if you wanted to.

[ Give her a second to consider that. Cause moving means putting some space between them. But then she thinks about the rumor mill that might ensue and get back to her sister and she nods. ]

Yes. Yeah, more private is good. Not that I don't want you to kiss me and hold my hand in public cause those are both really nice things. But... for the uber-kissage? More private. And this is definitely uber-kissage.

[Peter leans over her shoulder, leaning into a bit more and snags the water bottles off the bar then straightens up, leaning down to press a kiss to her forehead before he tangles his free hand up with hers, turns and starts toward the door. ]

How private are you thinking? Like park private or...

[He leaves that dangling because he doesn't share an apartment with anyone. ]

My apartment private? [ The words are out of her mouth before she thinks about it. And she realizes how forward that is. So she quickly gives him an out. ] I mean unless... you know... a park is okay too. Cause... swings. Not that! Uhm! Swings aren't a part of... I mean, sometimes swinging is fun. Just swinging.

[ her answer gets a big gulp from him, but it's a good gulp. he was hoping for that answer honestly. he responds quickly, before he can change his mind. ]

N-no. No. Apartment is good. Great. I mean...great. I just--why don't we--I don't live with anyone. You live with--with your sister, right? No one will walk in on us at my place. It's clean. I swear. I'm a scientist. I know what grows in dirt.

[ Okay, so it's cluttered with different projects and he's not the greatest about picking up his clothes, but it is clean. His aunt would have a fit if it weren't.]

Is that--that okay?

more than okay. Lets get there quick. Like... super speed... for humans. [ Dawn grabs his hand and starts leading him out of the club. Decision made. This is so gonna be a good night. ]

Lead the way, skater boy.

[ oh it's going to be a mind-blowing night and Peter's mind is currently in the process of being blown. It's all a little much to process, but in a very good way. Her words cause a loopy, goofy sort of smile to curve over his lips and he bobbles his head in a nod a bit. ]

Yeah. It's--it's this way. [ He's really wishing he had both his shooters and access to all the webbing he needed right now. He'd swing them to his apartment and get there much quicker than this walking thing.

Speaking of walking...idea! He pauses to grab his skateboard off his backpack and plops it down on the ground then stands on it. ]


Okay. Come on. Get close to me and trust me.

[ He tugs her hand to pull her up on the board with him. He's confident that with all his reflexes and balance that this won't be a problem. Once she's up there facing him, he wraps one arm around her waist. ]

Hang on. I've never actually done this before, but it'll be faster than walking and I know it'll work.

[ Dawn's mind is rapidly moving at a million miles a minute. She vaguely notices that he has his skateboard out. And her brain only seems to snap back into place when he tells her to get close and trust him. On the skateboard. ]

Oh. Uhm. I've told you before how I often trip over imaginary objects that aren't even there and sometimes even my own feet? Well, I'm pretty sure that applies in this scenario.

[ This is said as she gets on the skateboard very carefully and wraps her arms around his waist tight. She ducks her head, hiding her face in the back of his neck. ] Just a disclaimer in case there's crashing.

That's where the trusting me part comes in.

[It's a little awkward at first but they get started off. Peter takes a moment to figure out how to lean to balance the extra weight, but really they're doing well and clipping along at a pretty decent pace. It would really hurt to crash right now, but he's still confident that he could use his superhuman reflexes and skills to wrap up around Dawn so that they rolled, with him acting as the outside of the hamster ball.

In any case, there is no crashing. Just Peter really liking the way her arms feel wrapped around his waist, the way she feels pressed up against him, her face buried in the back of his neck. It tickles a little, but in a very good way. It's not long before they reach his apartment building. Stopping is more of a coasting to a stop thing as he can't slide and rooster tail the skateboard up into his hand the way he would if it were just him on the board. ]


We're here. Accident free.

[ In the land of places to hold a conversation, this is not the best. So Dawn is content to just hold on for the ride and try to sort through the fluttering of her heart, the feelings she's having right now. She's oftentimes wondered if she feels things more than other people. The Knight of Byzantium had once called her chaos incarnate. And sometimes she thinks that's why she can go from zero to hero or not a hero in point two five seconds flat. It's why when she reacts to things, she reacts big. And now is no different. She's feeling a lot of things two hundred percent.

When they slow down, she hops off and almost immediately reaches for one of his hands.
]

In the land of miracles, I think this is one, the whole accident-free thing. Go us. Can there be kissing now?
