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??

gus & helen | open! either or both!

[druidisms]

[ tucked into a booth are two people not under thirty. but fuck the police (he has), they came anyway. having done away with his suit jacket and tie, gus still looks hella hot and helen looks, as always, like a vision of a sassy sexpot. armed with drinks for both of them and a joint for gus (fuck the police again, he will) the two of them are chillin' like actual villains. ]

[moonheart]

[ oh my god gus, HER DAD IS THE POLICE WATCH WHAT YOU ARE IMPLYING. anyways, faith finds you guys in the corner and rushes up to the table, which she almost slams into, catching herself and leaning over it towards them with a giggling laugh. she's probably covered in lipstick stains too who the fuck knows. hi. ] You came!! [ she didn't even invite y'all but she's excited now that you're here. ]

[druidisms]

Always do. [ damn red, you're made of excite and gus is the most lackadaisical motherfucker rn. ] Pull up a patch of booth, kiddo, sing us a siren song.

[moonheart]

[ she plunks down beside him nice and snug ] I'm part maenad, not part siren! [ silly gus. what are you drinking? mind if she helps herself to some. she brought her own krazy straw, so she'll just stick that in there. ]

[daredtobelieve]

You should show him the difference sometime, dear. [Helen's smile comes easy, having been in contact with enough of the club's surfaces to have slipped into a very pleasant mood.]

[druidisms]

[ he exhales a laugh in a cloud of sweet smelling smoke, breathing it out over faith's head. ] Why would you tempt her with that? I don't need an aneurysm.

[ it's just beer btw. sorry, faith. ]

[moonheart]

He'd probably go deaf. [ she taps him on the side of the head as if to illustrate. somehow. ]

[druidisms]

Let's not test it out.

[moonheart]

Awwww, you're no fun!

[druidisms]

Ain't that the truth. [ he reaches over to muss up her hair fondly. ] But since I'm so boring, why don't you uses your tricks on someone else? I'm sure they'd enjoy it.

[ causally tossing an innocent bystander under the bus nbd ]

[moonheart]

Can do! Maybe they'll appreciate it. [ SHE MUSSES HIS HAIR RIGHT BACK and slides out of the booth. ]

[druidisms]

Here's hoping.

[daredtobelieve]

I feel like we should start a drinking game of some sort. To get in the spirit of things.

[She's half joking, but... it could be fun.]

[druidisms]

I'm in the spirit! [ his spirit is just stoned. ]

[daredtobelieve]

[She's tempted to take a hit, tbh. But for now she just takes another long drink.]

Never have I ever? Simple enough and oh so fun once you get to the right topics.

[druidisms]

I'm game. [ NEVER HAVE I EVER WITH GUS AND MAGNUS AWWW YIS ] Lemme get some shots.

[ he gets up and, idk, five minutes later comes back with a bottle of tequila, two shot glasses and a bowl of limes. setting the tray on the table. ] Let's go.

[daredtobelieve]

[This is going to end terribly.

Terribly awesome.]

It comes to mind that this game may be a touch more difficult after you've lived a century or two...

[She's done a lot of shit..]

[druidisms]

Catching on are you? Well, ladies first. [ enjoy, bb. ]

[daredtobelieve]

Hmm-- Never have I ever... Chased a bear through the woods because she's stolen my lunch.

[druidisms]

[ and he takes a shot. bitch. ] Never have I ever injected myself with vampire blood.

[daredtobelieve]

Cheap shots all around then? [She grins at him, properly grins rather than a polite little smile.]

I've never picked up anyone at a gay bar.

[druidisms]

That's discrimination. And wrong. New Year's, four years ago. [ he raises an eyebrow. ]

[ex_noble101]

[And since most of the people in attendance make up the younger crowd from the castle, it's fairly easy to spot his peers. Granted, it would be a lot more comforting if he actually knew any of said peers, but there was no time like the present.

Drink in hand, Coozie rolls up on Gus and Helen's table like it's the happening place to be because let's face it, it probably is. Gus is probably like who the fuck but if Helen's been around consistently over the past year she probably at least recognizes his face idek.]

Mind if I join you?

[druidisms]

[ no he does not. waving a hand lazily like some kind of invitation, he motions toward the free seat. idk where it is, next to helen, next to gus, maybe both. his choice. ]

Feel free.

[ex_noble101]

[Plopping his fat ass next to Helen, in that case. Sorry, Gus, she smells nicer.]
