WHO || All the bitches, tbh. [open]
WHAT || Faye's 18th Birthday, yay!
WHERE || Lost Society Bar, London, England
WHEN || March 28th, 7pm - onwards [forward-dated]
HOW || Actionspam

Formerly a two story barn, the bar Lila rented for Faye's birthday has an Art Deco theme that continues through the building, with each space having been given a contemporary twist. The lavish interiors create a feeling of forgotten decadence. Each room has its own distinct and unique ambience, all complementing one another yet reflecting different moods, depending on the feeling of the moment, flowing through to the secluded garden.

The man at the door has been notified to waive the cover charge for anyone that comes bearing a gift, but if you don't come bearing gifts... don't expect Lila to feel pity for you. You're paying that cover charge yourself, en-fucking-joy, you soulless, non-gifting-bearing bastard. (This was mentioned in the invites she sent out to all the ladies in the castle. It's possible that it's literally all the ladies in the castle as Lila doesn't care whether they're friends with Faye or not. No boys got invites unless they were verbal. The dress code of "fancy but down to fuck" was also on the invitations...)

Tucked in the back is a partitioned off banquet for the VIP party and once inside the ropes, you get a stamp on your hand so the drinks are free for the rest of the night -- and the drink of the night is a Bailey's Comet. Because it's on fire. Drink, enjoy, be merry. Do things. Save room for the cake.

And if anyone is worried about a bunch of drunk knights trying to drive home, Lila rented a handful of rooms at a nearby hotel because when she plans shit, she plans it well.

Anything for her best friend.

[ he lifted the forearm where he got scracthed.]

Yeah me either, pretty fucking glad for that too. I am so not down to be one of them. And well, you too fine to get a Walking Dead make over. [ He wasn't exactly flirting, more stating fact. Could be taken either way though.]

[allmydreams]

[She laughs a bit at that.]

I will drink to that. That kind of gray grossness is not for me.

[opprobrium]

Cheers [ He lifted his drink at her words there.] I don't have time for that kinda shit.

So, what do you do around here when your not doing that?

[allmydreams]

[She shrugs a bit.]

A lot of this. Wander around London, get to know everyone - mostly social stuff.

[opprobrium]

Yeah, and I hate the social stuff which is why I am usually at the bar or in a dark corner. Still the city has a lot of fun things to offer I give it that.

[allmydreams]

I kind of ... thrive on the social stuff. It's my thing.

[opprobrium]

I just don't get people. It's easier to be myself and be told I'm a dick, then to lie and fake it and feel empty, you know?

Wanna drink? My treat.

[allmydreams]

Hey, there's nothing wrong with being yourself. If people can't appreciate that, then screw 'em.

[Not that Felicity can't fake it with the best of them, but that's usually for a job. She prefers to not be so serious in her downtime.]

Please. I'll have a martini.

[opprobrium]

Pretty much how I feel anyway, just without everything but screw 'em. People suck, but I do believe in protecting those who need it before you ask why I am in this line of work.

[ He smacked the counter twice, because he is a rude twit at times.] Another double whiskey and a martini for the lady.

[allmydreams]

Hey, there's nothing wrong with that. You don't have to like people to do the right thing.

[And she'll give the bartender a smile as he drops off her martini.]

[opprobrium]

That's the general idea.

[ he slide the money across once he had the drink.]

So, you friends with Faye?

[allmydreams]

[She nods.]

Yeah. Me, her and Lila were on my first mission together.

[opprobrium]

Sounds like a bit of fun.

[ He spoke as he took a drink from his drink, looking back out at teh crowd for the birthday girl.]

[allmydreams]

[She nods.]

It was. Political intrigue is always a good time.

[opprobrium]

I dont get most of it, but I'll take your word for it.

[ he spoke with a nod.]

[allmydreams]

[She nods in turn.]

So are you close with Faye too?

[opprobrium]

I'm fucking her part time.

[ He spoke like it was nothing. Because it him it worked out better that way.]

[allmydreams]

[ ... Oh. Well then.]

Lucky you.

[Not saying anything against Sebastian, but Faye > him right now.]

[opprobrium]

[ He shrugged some.]

Maybe, who knows. People are strange.

[ Slipped off his stool slipping a cigarette between his lips.]

It's time for my cancer break, I'll catch you later.

[allmydreams]

[She nods, raising her drink to him in return.]

Sure. Thanks for the drink.

[opprobrium]

[ He nodded some.]

Don't mention it.

[ And off he went.]
