Who: Stefan Salvatore and Open to Everyone Invited!
When: Memorial Day
Where: Casa de Lexi/Stefan/Anna
What: Memorial Day shenanigans
Rating/Warnings: Low/None (TBD)
Status: In Progress
Note: Here's a log for anyone who wants to attend the party and log out interactions. Feel free to tag in and play!

The place was cleaner than it'd been since they moved in back in October. Stefan had been locked inside for the last week, dealing with his own demons and letting the human blood work its way out of his system. He was stronger now than he'd been before, more confident and determined to stay on his chosen course.

The party was planned; the ice chests full of ice and drinks, tables laden with snacks. Music was playing, the barbeque was cooking and the hot tub was, well, hot. Guests were arriving, hanging out, talking, spending time together, and Stefan was pretty happy about the turnout.

Tas had been told that Anna had vampire roommates, though he really wasn't sure if that was all her roommates, or if they were real vampires or just people who hung out in vampire bars. He'd been a vampire bar before. He'd made friends with someone because of their make-up, and then they'd given him dark eye make-up and black lipstick and fake fangs and brought him to this vampire bar where they all drank Bloody Mary's and Vampire's Kisses and Dracula's Blood. Tas really preferred beer, but it had been a fun night nevertheless.

"That's good!" Tas said. "I mean, Raistlin bites my head off all the time, but I think that's just him! I know he doesn't really mean it." Besides, at least his roommate Raistlin was a lot nicer than his dream friend Raistlin. Raistlin in his dreams could be really mean sometimes.

"Hi Stefan," Tas said cheeerfully, holding out a hand to shake. He sure didn't look like a goth club vampire. "I'm Tasslehoff Burrfoot, but you can call me Tas!"

Things were certainly a lot better for Stefan now than they'd been after the werewolf bite, and subsequent couple of weeks. He was back on his strict diet, after nearly killing a waitress and the stern talking to that arose from that interaction. And he'd shut himself in the house to detox. Actually, all things considered, he felt pretty good. He had a good job where he worked with friends, he had a nice girlfriend, and he lived with his best friend. And Anna. Who was sweet. Life was pretty good.

When said redhead came bouncing over with another friend, Stefan turned to give them his attention. He was drinking moonshine from a red solo cup, and it was probably pretty fumey. But hey, he actually felt the alcohol, so that was a good thing?

"Hi, Tas. It's nice to meet you." Stefan reached out to shake the other's hand. Stefan's handshake was firm and strong. He wondered if he was going to have to give Tas the older brother look where Anna was concerned. (Also, how was it she was always surrounded by guys? It's like the girl was obsessed.)

"Enjoying the party?

	"It's nice to meet you too, Stefan!" Tas said. "You bet I'm enjoying the party! Everyone here's so friendly! And you've got a bunch of great beer." But that wasn't beer that Stefan was drinking, Tas could tell. Mostly by the faint whiff of strong alcohol he felt coming from the other man. "What are you drinking? I didn't see it in the coolers!"

Anna was thrilled that her friends were getting along so well! She grinned as she turned her attention from Tas to Stefan and back again. Then to the drink in Stefan's hand. Her nose crinkled up a little as she caught a whiff of the stuff. "Smells like nail polish remover," she said, and cringed away.

Stefan lifted up the red cup, then raised an eyebrow. "Moonshine. Have you ever had any?"

Anna had never tried the stuff, but she'd heard that it was super strong. She bit down on her lip, thinking drinking it was probably a bad idea for humans. Vampires could handle it, though, of that she was certain.

“You bet I have!” Tas said cheerfully. “Moonshine’s great. I stayed with this farmer and his wife for a while and he brewed moonshine in his barn! We drank barrells of the stuff one night. That was actually the night we went cow tipping! We were sitting around, drinking our third barrel of moonshine, and I asked him if he’d ever tipped a cow. ‘No, you know, I never have,’ he replied. And I said ‘Well, why don’t we do that now? Or will that hurt the cows?’ And he said ‘Oh no, it’s perfectly safe.’ So then we went out to the field, and found the biggest cow we could. She was just standing there, asleep - cows sleep standing up, you know - and then we both just leaned into her until she fell right over! It was very funny. Do you have anymore?”

Anna missed Stefan's look of incredulity because she was gaping at Tas. "I never knew you tipped a cow!" She said. Her expression was torn between admiration and offense.

"Yeah, I've got some more," Stefan said, turning his bewildered expression from Anna to her friend. "Just got a big jar of the stuff from a friend of mine trying to make peace for shooting me in the kneecap." He lifted his solo cup for a sip.

"You're really gonna drink that stuff?" Anna asked. "It smells like nailpolish remover."

Stefan was already moving through the living room toward the kitchen, motioning for them to follow after him so he could pour Tas a cup of the hard stuff.

Tas followed Stefan through the house. “You got shot in the kneecap? But you’re walking so good now! Oh, unless you met a healer! In my dreams, the only healers that we have are clerics - I needed one once when a house fell on me! - so it seems kind of strange that people can heal with just regular old magic and not the heavenly divine kind of magic that’s needed for healing in my dreams.

“That’s how you know it’s good!” Tas said to Anna, as though he were teaching her. “I mean, you don’t want to drink actual nail polish remover, but the stuff that’ll get you really drunk is the stuff that makes your eyes water when you sniff it.”
