The music is heavy on the bass, the kind you can feel deep down. It's not overwhelming but it's ever present. And, as always, there are very pretty people dancing for entertainment.
Kate Pryde is holding court and keeping everything in order, ready to step in if there are any problems, and Steve Rogers will be behind the bar, mixing drinks and adding to the atmosphere.
There are plenty of couches for conversations, and quiet corners. There are also booths for groups to talk, and private rooms upstairs. Those do need permission, but are great if you really hit it off and want to be alone.
This is an 18 and over event due to the nature of the Hellfire Club.
There is an expectation that nobody will get sloppy, and while people are encouraged to enjoy themselves they won't be overserved. Consent is important, after all, and impaired consent is not consent.
Nobody under the age of 21 will be served. We don't care if there's no drinking age in your fairytale kingdom, there is one in the Hellfire Club. Mocktails will be served for those who can't drink.
Wrong holiday.
But seriously. Mix. Mingle. Getting to know people is the order of the hour. This is a mixer for people to make connections - whether those be romantic or platonic. Sure you might not meet the love of your life, but you'll meet someone. Everyone who comes is encouraged to socialize with people. This isn't speed dating - it's certainly not organized that way - but it is a place for multiple social interactions.
Have conversations. Dance. Drink and be merry. Have a good time and don't dwell on the fact that you're single. Who knows? Soon you might not be.
NOTE: If you have a thread that becomes more explicit in nature - not that this will necessarily happen - please mark it as such.
So this sucks.
But we should probably think about what things we need to do going forward. I know we've been working on computers and driving lessons. Do you two have any other ideas for programs to implement?
So Clint's gone. And America's gone. And Wanda's gone.
This sucks.
At least Lucky is still here. And Jeff.
Come over?
I'm continuing my work on finding a cure for our mutual condition. I'll keep you all appraised of my efforts. I am not sure how it will go, but I do have hope.
Anders suggested I speak to you about my work. He believes you may be able to help.
I am working on a project and I wonder if I might have your assistance. I also wanted to share with you some of the Dalish magic I feel would suit you.
