HOW || Actionspam. Single thread, don't worry about maintaining tagging order.

Being friends with someone as spontaneous as Faith can have its perks. She's invited the entire under-30 crowd at the castle to come celebrate her friend Andie's 21st birthday at an exclusive dance club called the Silver Band in downtown London.

The club is swirling with colors, as disco balls reflect silvery light that catches on the large quantities of glitter that cover just about every surface. The main dance floors are made of transparent glass, and the club is multi-storied, so that you can choose to dance higher up and see everyone below under your feet. Below the ground floor is a strange black canopy that seems to reflect odd flickering lights, almost like stars. There's a sort of classic opulence to the decor, and hallways branch off here and there to private rooms out of sight. Floating lights bob around the ceiling, that look almost like crystalline balls, except they're light as bubbles and can pop when touched.

Strangely, there are cobwebs in various areas of the club, mostly out of reach, as if it hasn't had occasion to be cleaned in awhile, but there's no traces of grime or dirt anywhere. Faith has a private room procured off one of the halls for the mini-buffet, because how can it be Andie's birthday without food??

[ lila's just gonna let her fall, tbh, stepping neatly out of the way. (ref save 19, which she could have used to stop faye, but... nope.) ]

Hey whore.

[reallywicked]

[Well...down she goes. But everything she touches in this place (floor included I guess) just seems to put her in a better mood she throws back her head and laughs.]

You're such a bitch. [She pushes herself up to sitting, but hasn't gotten to her feet yet.]

[bittersweeter]

It's a gift. [ is she going to help faye up? IS SHE?!?!?!!?!

yeah, she holds out her bare hand like come on, loser, someone probably vomited on the floor and now you're laying it in like that scene in pitch perfect but i sure as shit am not going to be cleaning it off you like those other girls did so this is all you're getting.

she packs a lot of words into silence. ]

[reallywicked]

No gloves, huh? [It doesn't stop Faye from taking the hand. Her trust in Lila to not work her (again) is deeply ingrained by by now babe pulls herself up to standing and ends up super close to her short friend.]

I was wondering where you've been.

[bittersweeter]

Saying hi to the birthday girl, duh. [ come on, faye, get with the program here. it's a birthday party. ]

[reallywicked]

Yeah but that was like...an hour ago. [Or ten minutes. Whatever. Time is not a thing Faye is keeping great track of right now.]

[bittersweeter]

Oh honey. [ she grins even as her tone turns cheerfully mocking and she reaches up to pat faye's cheek. ] You've had too much to drink, haven't you? Someone is going to take advantage of a pretty thing like you.

[reallywicked]

Guess you'll have to keep me safe, then. Because the only person I'd let take advantage of me is you.

[With everyone else, she's the one taking advantage.]

[bittersweeter]

Yeah, stick with me, kid. I'll keep you safe. [ snort. no, she won't. ]

[reallywicked]

My hero. [She puts her arms over Lila's shoulders, swaying a bit like she's going to start dancing again.]

[bittersweeter]

[ it's not fair because faye is so much taller than her so she always has to look up to the other girl, hands shifting to loop around her waist. there's nothing else to do with her hands, honest. ] Aren't I, though? Honest, I should get a medal.

[reallywicked]

I'm out of medals, unfortunately. If I find one- definitely yours.

[bittersweeter]

My hero. [ she repeats faye's words with a grin. how 'bout them apples, huh? she is the most clever. ]

[reallywicked]

C'mon. [She tugs at the girl's wrist and pulls her towards some nearby booths. They can sit and make out talk for awhile.]

[bittersweeter]

[ she follows along like an obedient puppy, swiping a drink from a passing water and tossing it back before setting it on someone else's table. look how much she cares about who paid for that? spoilers: none. ]

[reallywicked]

[Faye seems terribly amused by the drink shenanigans, but continues until she finds a space to plop her ass down and drag Lila in with her.]

I love this place. [so stupid giddy drunk right now.]

[bittersweeter]

It's okay. [ judging like a judgy panda. IT IS NOT NEW YORK. SHE IS STILL REALLY ATTACHED TO NEW YORK. nothing compares. even the happiness juice cannot make lila love new york less. ]

[reallywicked]

Shut up, it's great. [And Faye feels great so she is going to slip a hand into Lila's knee. Sup gurl.]

[bittersweeter]

It's okay. [ which she says like prove its great and maybe i will be on your side. ]

[reallywicked]

We could make it better... [idk what that come on is, but it's faye so it comes with a sexy look (cha 19).]

[bittersweeter]

[ faye is dr feelgood tbh. ] Yeah? [ she flutters her eyelashes like she doesn't get it before she leans in a little to whisper in faye's ear. ] Prove it.

[reallywicked]

[Well who could say no to that. Faye turns her head to press her lips to her friend's. It's not soft or delicate, but just as impulsive and chaotic as Faye is on her best day. (dex 17 for dem skillz and cha 18 to show off for the crowd).]

[bittersweeter]

[ oho. well, lila just tumbles right into that kiss, pushing forward to get more. boyfriend has slipped her mind completely. ]

[reallywicked]

[aw yeah make outs. boyfriend? what boyfriend? just let faye take care of you~]

[bittersweeter]

[ this is a-okay with lila tbh. faye is a good kisser. there is good kissing up in here as she shifts forward a little, finally showing some enthusiasm. ]
