[Open] "Green Bay will feel Hammer time"
Who: Open!
What: Seventh Floor Superbowl Party
Where:  Rick's apartment (706), Pia's apartment (708), Samuel's apartment (707),  the hallway, and wherever else the party might leak to
When: February 6th 2011, 3 PM -  10 PM
Warnings:   Usual party warnings, anything can/might happen when you get a pile of god-possessed people drunk in the same place.

Notes:  The noise from the party can probably be heard from the sixth and eighth floors.  Game starts at 3:30 PM.  Totally feel free to riff on the halftime show/commercials as you please.   I, Sage, actually am at work all day today (boo), but you can assume that Rick will greet your character during the party.  I'll be around in the evening to post. 

-----

Superbowl is more than a football game.  To many, it is a celebration of the spirit of America itself, maybe moreso than the Fourth of July.  Because today, more than any other, men and women live to celebrate their united right to get drunk with a group of friends and strangers and scream at the television.   

And the black, yellow, white and green colored balloons and streamers, and tiny themed Nerf footballs lining the seventh floor hallway was the first indication that Superbowl mania had infected at least part of the building.


Rick's apartment looked like a fiesta waiting to happen, even on a normal day.  The kitchen was painted a chili red normally seen on sports cars, with food and drinks piled buffet-style on the island and the counter bar, and plenty of team-colored cups and plates to go around.  The living room itself was painted a bright golden yellow, and for this occasion, had banners of GREEN DAY PACKERS and PITTSBURGH STEELERS draped in the empty spaces between artwork.   At least 15 people's worth of sofas, chairs, and oversized floor-pillows were arranged between the living room and kitchen combined.  The wide-screen television in the corner of the living room possessed nearly an altar-like feel to it - today, even though Rick was the host, the TV was the central star. 

The hallway even had a few card tables scattered through it, with bowls of popcorn and junk food to accompany the playing cards and poker chips.  A radio sat out there as well, blaring off stats and scores so truly, nobody could miss a touchdown on that floor if they tried.  Though perhaps one could duck into the other open rooms on the floor - one with exquisite food smells wafting out of it, and the other loud with the squeals of slain assassins.

Rick himself works through the rooms and crowds, greeting new arrivals, chatting, and porting food from Pia's room around.  Between the black Steeler's jersey, yellow Nikes, and black and yellow greasesmarks under his eyes and his unsinkable grin, his own investment in the Superbowl is impossible to miss.

With the brownies in the oven, Pia had a few moments to spare while they baked. She peered into Sam's apartment, almost strange to her now.

"GDI? What the hell does that stand for, Gay Doctors of Ireland?" she said with a smirk, waggling a six-pack of German dark lager.

"Great guess. But it means 'God damn it'," Samuel said, barely glancing up. "C'mon in, Pia. That sign doesn't apply to you." He finished one particularly bloody kill, blood pouring from the slit throat of his quarry's avatar. Grinning proudly he turned to his guest, his eyes glinting with a boyish light. "Long time no see... and now that I see what you're bringing, that sign totally applies. Those look delicious."

"They damn well better be," she replied, sitting on the arm of the couch as she set the beer on the coffee table. Apparently she had taken it upon herself to make up for the lack of cheerleaders on the television set with her own apparel, though it was a far cry from anything resembling 'team spirit.' "It took a lot of effort and cunning to steal it from work. How have you been, killer?"

"Never better." He chanced a brief glance back to her, grinning all the broader. "Got injured. Took a knife or something through my right thigh." He thumbed a button, sending his character's straight razor through another unsuspecting throat. "Looks like it'll make a pretty sexy scar."

The game came to a close; he grabbed his beer and settled back against the cushions, queuing up the menu and waiting for another game to start. "What are you up to these days?" he asked, shifting position to better see her. Her outfit, if it could truly be called such, was remarkably distracting. "Broken any new hearts lately?"

"Nope, but I think I've got a new toy," she brushed the subject of herself aside with a wave of her hand, scrutinizing him from her perch. "A knife wound? It didn't nick your femoral artery or anything, I hope." Then she added in a tone of voice that sounded much more like normal Pia, "Should I kiss it better?"

His grin was positively wolfish, too self satisfied for most to bear. He gave a leisurely shrug, sidling closer to her side of the couch. "No sense in denying how much I'd like to see the catfight that'd probably come from it." He cut her a sidelong glance, mischief gleaming in his eyes. "I'm sure I'd be stuck in the middle of it, though, and I'm not sure I like the sound of that."

The game began; his avatar slipped soundlessly through the crowd, seeking out the first ill fated mark. "So tell me about this toy of yours," he said. A teasing smirk curled at the corner of his mouth. "Do you have immediate plans to ruin him, or are you sort of playing it by ear?"
