✨ MHA #2: Super Starlight Party! - Saturday Evening [04/17]. ✨

[somethingwithturquoise]

So, the whole space part of Summer's plan for Annie's party didn't exactly pan out the way she was hoping. Part of her conversation with Lucifer on Wednesday had turned out to be somewhat prophetic, as one for her choices for location had conveniently decided to start a galactic civil war with their moon colonies, and the other place, apparently, didn't even exist anymore. The best guess was that it somehow involved Cromulans, which meant that planet was pretty much space dust now, which meant that Summer could pretty much kiss her deposit on that venue good-bye.

Which was fine! If she couldn't still pull together a more terrestrial party at the last minute, then she truly should just hang up her party crown now and retire in shame. So emails and texts went out, the gnomes at Portalocity would hopefully cooperate in sharing the news with anyone who showed up expecting to head elsewhere, that the party was relocated. And Summer was going to just use her own place for the cause, but, really, through the ensuing chain of events in preparation that morning, she remembered that Diego's apartment was pretty much literally right across the hall and easily twice as large.

So Diego's apartment it was!

Honestly, as boyfriend, it was literally the least he could do.

But because it was a little last minute and Summer didn't have the benefit of foisting at least half the cleaning duties on an NPC bartender like she could at Caritas, the decorations were a bit more...restrained. Oh, sure, there was still going to be glitter everywhere and every corner that Summer had access to was decked out in stars, but the mood was much different, trying to go for something a little more elegent in mood, with starlights draped out on the balcony, draped over doors, and projected over the walls and ceiling.

Look, if they couldn't make it out to space due to galactic conflict and super harsh critics with planet-exploding capabilities, they could at least try to bring the space to them.

Arrive & Mingle - Super Starlight Party - 04/17 ✨.

[somethingwithturquoise]

If the invites don't get you through the door, maybe all the lights and music and general hub-bub will! Arrive, mingle, come get your party on, like you do!

A party on a Saturday that seemed normal so far seemed like the perfect thing for Seivarden, who had spent a lot of time this week missing the kid she had had last weekend, and pondering the universe that she had been from.

Celebrating Annie's promotion seemed like a good reason too. So here she was, showing up in her Radchaai uniform - it seemed appropriate - and glanced around the room.

"A theme that makes sense, I suppose."

Lucille might not be a party person, but showing up at social events had become less and less awkward. She wore her usual red dress, although perhaps she should get a new one soon, glanced at the star decor, and looked around for someone she knew well enough to approach.

She just wished people nowadays still had pianos. It always made things easier.

Even if Tisarwat didn't really know the person the party was for, or even the person whose apartment it was in, she did live right down the hall, and a Sumemr party was always worth it, so, if anything, it would be a good chance to get out and meet some of her neighbors who weren't Summer and some more people besides.

If she didn't make it to a party going on right down the hallway, she really might as well give up entirely at that point...

Ignis was certain he'd only met Annie once, at his own party (he was not including any shoe-related interactions, thank you), but he had told Summer he would come to her little shindig, and he'd even advised her on some of the food and drinks in their correspondence about it, and so he was there, admittedly a little disappointed that the space plans apparently fell through, but this should still be a pleasant evening.

Lucifer had been milling about the island for most of the afternoon after Duke had insisted he 'needed to sleep' and 'was only human' or whatever. Then he'd remembered about Summer's party. An excellent opportunity to blow off some more of that remaining restless energy...

"...I thought there was going to be space," he said, upon entry. He didn't really know Annie at all, but he rarely got the chance to break out his marigold suit, so he was even color-coordinated today.

Because Prompto definitely couldn't miss out on a party that was happening while he just so happened to be on the island for the weekend...

...seriously, at this point, why didn't he just pretty much do the whole 'Fandom on the weekends' thing with Ignis?

...actually...that...might...not be such a bad idea.

So Prompto was definitely here to have a good time and celebrate this person who he should probably meet while he was here and overpopulate the party with my own characters in a potentially disasterous bout of optimisim, but also, apparently, to work out some kinks in a suddenly newly hatched and not yet fully formed spark of an idea in his head...

Half the fun of dumping in all my characters while I can sweeping into a party held by Summer-chan, for Shunsui, even when he didn't even know the person it was being held for, was that it annoyed her in the most adorable ways when he did.

Well, more like perhaps ten percent of the fun, but let's not get too mired in the nitty-gritty details.

Besides, someone had to bring the sake, right?

Re: Arrive & Mingle - Super Starlight Party - 04/17 ✨.

[thatwaslucky]

Rey wasn't overly fantastic at parties, let alone one that she had real mixed feelings about, so she was trying to stay out of the way and not project any of that.

If anyone brought out a glitter cannon at her, so help her.

Re: Arrive & Mingle - Super Starlight Party - 04/17 ✨.

[stykera]

Stark still wasn't terribly excited about the idea of Annie leaving but he was sure he would feel worse about it if he didn't come to this. And even if it was no longer set in space, it was just downstairs from his own apartment so it was very convenient.

Re: Arrive & Mingle - Super Starlight Party - 04/17 ✨.

Um, of course Annie was at her own party. She had debated actually going ahead and wearing her uniform, just to do it, but the risk of spill -- or, perhaps worse yet, the risk of photos of drunk-ass Starlight hitting the internet -- had ultimately convinced her not to.

But she could wear elements of her uniform, at least, since this was a celebration of wearing that uniform in an official capacity, right? So she'd shown up in a cute, knee-length white sundress, gold sandals, and her cape, affixed to her straps with safety pins.

Party Starlight. Starlight Lite. Diet Starlight, if you will.

In any case, she was here, and outfit aside, looking pretty overwhelmed (if happy) with all the attention.

(She had also, of course, taken the time to hide the plant in the master bathroom for now, but it would likely get moved a few times as the night went on. It seemed safest to change the location so no would-be plant saboteurs could plan anything.)

At least it wasn't in the apartment above his own this time around. Which Danny greatly appreciated.

But he did snicker very quietly at what had been done to Diego's place. Because this was... this was a choice for the man in question.

[bookbeltof_love]

Was Nina supposed to be here?

Did she actually care if she was supposed to or allowed to be here?

Like, she was here, and dressed to match the theme because if you promised her a space party, how could she not?

This wasn't nearly as space-y as she'd expected but it was still pretty good and, added bonus, it gave her a chance to snoop about another apartment which was always a good time.

Steve was married to Tony Stark, so he knew about over-the-top. But still. "Wow," he said, wincing slightly at the lights. "This is sure something."

Re: Arrive & Mingle - Super Starlight Party - 04/17 ✨.

[imafuturist]

Tony was there as Steve knew the lady of honor and even though the whole concept of how the superhero teams worked in some other world was confusing, but he could roll with it!

Mostly by bringing a gift that was probably a bit too much. But it was a prototype and wasn't doing anyone any good just sitting in the lab.

Also, someone was used to essentially being a sugar daddy for a superhero team.

Re: Arrive & Mingle - Super Starlight Party - 04/17 ✨.

[grenadesandohana]

Steve took one look at the glittery mess that was Diego's apartment and burst into extremely un-SEAL approved giggles.

"This is going to last forever," he said.

Eric rapped polite at the door because, sigh, he was that kind of vampire.

Re: Arrive & Mingle - Super Starlight Party - 04/17 ✨.

Liam had forgone his usual black on black for tonight’s festivities, going instead for a dark blue button down and... black jeans. No suit, despite the icon

[superjoanjett]

Okay, Jess was typically a loner. However if she didn’t show up for Annie’s party, it would inevitably mean further conversations and blah bla blah.

So Jessica walked in and immediately look for a corner she could settle into and just watch people as she drank.

First of all it was a party thrown by his girlfriend. Second of all it was a party for a friend. So yes, Barry was going to be there and also try to make sure that he helped out cleaning up the place.

In fact he was already collecting used and abandoned drinks and hauling to the kitchen for either cleaning or tossing out.

Re: Arrive & Mingle - Super Starlight Party - 04/17 ✨.

[designateddadfriend]

If there was anything that Travis had learned last week, it was that he needed to make more actual friends on this island. Which required, you know, going out and actually spending time with people instead of just moping around the firehouse.

So when he heard there was a party in town tonight, he was absolutely showing up.

And then wallflowering awkwardly, because, well. He still didn't really have actual friends on this island yet.

Re: Arrive & Mingle - Super Starlight Party - 04/17 ✨.

[betterthanaplan]

Duke had slept like a rock this afternoon, and woken up feeling more refreshed than he had in ages (so, you know, the island had something in its favor for this last week, there).

"Fancy. I feel like someone should put on Dark Side of the Moon."

Food & Drink - Super Starlight Party - 04/17 ✨.

[somethingwithturquoise]

This party is being thrown by a bartender, so you know the kitchen is definitely stocked with a good array of beers and booze for mixing or just enjoying as advertised. And since it was being thrown by this particular bartender, you know there's jello shots, too! Since this is a party straight up for Starlight, all of Summer's greatest Starlight-themed favorites, classics and hits (and a few new ones, some of which seem particularly suited to be taken out of the bar setting) are on display and available to enjoy!

There is also plenty of completely moddable snacks and foods, but don't anyone try and tell Summer that star-shaped pizza and finger sandwiches weren't the best touches yet.

Re: Food & Drink - Super Starlight Party - 04/17 ✨.

[knife_bender]

Diego was fairly certain this was the most food his apartment had ever had in it. He was certainly going to take advantage of that, and ignore the fact this was sort of a bittersweet experience for him right now.

Other Things! - Super Starlight Party - 04/17 ✨

[somethingwithturquoise]

As far as parties go, this one is actually pretty straight forward, but should there be anything else in particular you'd like to throw in there, make a thread here and go on with your party self!

OOC - Super Starlight Party - 04/17 ✨.

[somethingwithturquoise]

There is a good chance that today is actually the worst day for interactions from me in a whiiiiiile, but I am but a helpless slave to the party gods and their pretendy-fun-time-game High Priestess of Partydom.

I just pray that they view this offering as satisfactory, and that you may all go forth in party greatness without me.

Re: OOC - Super Starlight Party - 04/17 ✨.

[defenderofdesmoines]

I FOR ONE VIEW THIS OFFERING AS INCERDIBLY SATISFACTORY, AND YOU/SUMMER ARE THE GREATEST.
