somethingwithturquoise | Summer's 21st Birthday Portal Pub Crawl Mega-Post! Saturday Night [06/19].

Considering that Summer had first hatched this idea all the way back in March and even got a few of the wheels in motion for it back then, it was almost a little hard to believe that it was finally here (with a...few hitches and drama here and there, but what would a Summer party be without some drama attached, right?), it was finally her birthday and it was finally her twenty-first. Most young women in her position might plan for a big night with a few bars to really work the fact that they were finally twenty-one to the bone, but most young women didn't have easy portal access and a whole country pretty much at their wily little now-legal fingertips.

Starting, of course, with that old chestnut that supported not only her underage drinking habits but also her bank account, in the place that made most of this possible, Fandom Island's own Caritas! Summer was, of course, bringing jello shots, but don't expect to stay too long, because it wouldn't take much time for their first portal to be ready, and then it's off for a very long, very rambling, cross-country night that, probably by bar five, Summer probably won't remember anyway! Good thing she had plenty of mostly-sober friends who could maybe record some of it for posterity and memory's sake!

[[ THE EPIC OCD IS NOW UP!

if you're 21 and older and/or not a student, and you've ever breathed in the same air in a close proximity to Summer, she's probably extended an invitation to you, so feel free to jump in. The Caritas post when it goes up can also be great for recruitment!

All the stops outside of Fandom except for the Baltimore bar and Lucifer's club are in Summer's dimension, as well, which has been invaded by aliens a few times and is used to weird shit, so any non-standard-human traits would not raise any eyebrows if there's any concerns there!

Lemme know if there's any questions, everything but Caritas and the Devil's Nest NFB for distance, obviously, and I spent way too much time on this, this is my life ]]

Seivarden smiled at Lucifer's comment about Lux' ranking here, but said:

"Yes, I told her it would be the party of the year."

At least they could agree on this. Seivarden looked across the crowd to where Summer was standing.

"It's Summer," Lucifer said. "That woman has a mind on her for party organisation that would be an absolute terror in the hands of the wrong governmental agency."

"Yes, well, let's just hope she doesn't abandon us and take over some universe somewhere," Seivarden said with an amused snort.

"I mean," Lucifer said, sipping his drink, "Who's to say that universe wouldn't be better off?"

"That wasn't the point I was making," Seivarden pointed out. "There are plenty of universes that she could improve."

"Ah, we just don't want her to leave," Lucifer said. "Fair enough, I can echo that sentiment."

"Let's just make sure she gets home in one piece tonight," Seivarden said, pretending that there wasn't a tiny bit of concern in her voice. "And doesn't end up in some random universe prison."

The presence of Mr. Poopybutthole had brought back memories.

"Well, we're almost at the end, and I'm certainly not about to let the cops arrest anyone in Lux," Lucifer said, sipping his drink. "She'll be fine. Hungover worse than she's ever been in her life, but fine."

"That part was a given," Seivarden said, managing a smile.

She was tired, she realised, and not just because she wasn't in a mood to talk to Lucifer. Right now all she wanted was to go back home and get some sleep and then wake up and make some tea. She tried not to make it show, but didn't quite succeed.

Lucifer eyed her. Was he still ~~hurt~~ frustrated by her entire existence? He supposed he was.

It just didn't matter much, any longer. There were much more important things in his life than Seivarden Vendaai and the antagonizing thereof.

So he said, "You know, if you wish, you can leave any time," he said. "You don't have to carry on all the way to the end."

Had she been somewhere else, that could have been a polite suggestion that she leave, but Seivarden reminded herself that had Lucifer wanted to say that he would likely be blunt.

"Oh, I'm not giving up at the last stop." She raised her glass, that admittedly contained no alcohol, just a little. She really wanted tea, more than anything else.

"I'm going to get another drink."

Maybe she would just leave.

"If you wish," Lucifer said lightly. A pause. "If memory serves, they keep some decent oolong in the staff quarters they might give you if you ask for it."

Seivarden smiled, more sincerely now. "That might be a better choice. Thank you."

She hesitated, as if to say something. "It was kind of you to arrange this for Summer," she eventually said.

"She helped me save Duke's boat when it was lost at sea," Lucifer said, sipping his drink like he didn't see the fuss here. "Besides, one's 21st deserves a good party."

"True."

Seivarden realised that she wanted to ask why Lucifer had suddenly seemed to dislike her, instead of just being occasionally annoyed with what he perceived as her shortcomings, but now would be a bad time and it would no doubt be pointless anyway.

"I should see if I can find some tea," she said after a pause, then turned around to leave. She stopped, adding:

"You know, I never thought you would tell me that the person I care about the most was trying to get rid of me. Just to hurt me."

And then she disappeared into the crowd.

Lucifer rolled his eyes rather dramatically.

"Oh, trust her to ruin a perfectly civil conversation with a flounce," he muttered. Then he turned around, plastered a grin back onto his face and yelled, "WHO'S UP FOR JAGERBOMBS?!"
