Summer Smith ([personal profile] somethingwithturquoise) wrote2021-06-19 06:29 am

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 ]]

"It's okay," Octavia replied.

There was something faintly joking, faintly teasing about it.

"Better now that you're here."

"How long have you been here?" Lucifer asked.

"Maybe about an hour?"

She hadn't really looked at the time enough to know for sure.

Octavia snorted. "Something like that," she rasped. "It's not like I came here to make small talk with Amenadiel."

"And how is my brother doing?" Lucifer said, pulling her a little closer.

One of Octavia's hands cradled the back of his head, the other the back of his neck.

"Seems to be taking this place seriously."

Which seemed like entirely the wrong way to do it if you asked her. Not because she didn't appreciate things being done seriously - obviously - but because... This was Lux. And Lux was Lucifer's.

And Lucifer wasn't very serious.

Lucifer groaned. "That sounds like my irritatingly serious brother," he said. "You know while I was in Hell, he tried to use this place to bust drug dealers? I spent ages setting up those contacts."

"Poor Lucifer."

That did not sound very sincere.

"Oh, don't be a brat," Lucifer informed her, very seriously.
okteiviakom: ([pos] tease)

Re: Lux, Los Angeles, LA - Portal Pub Crawl, 06/19.

[personal profile] okteiviakom 2021-06-20 04:20 pm (UTC)(link)
The smirk was subtle, but there.

"Or what?"

Re: Lux, Los Angeles, LA - Portal Pub Crawl, 06/19.

[personal profile] my_own_advocate 2021-06-20 04:24 pm (UTC)(link)
"Or I'm not going to dance with you," Lucifer informed her.

His voice was prim, but the grin on his face rather ruined it.

Octavia made a little 'enh' noise.

"I kind of like being a brat, though."

"And I can kind of take or leave dancing," Octavia added.

Honestly it was amazing she'd actually admitted to enjoying it at a time or two, lately.

Lucifer sighed. "You drive a hard bargain," he said. "Do it for me?"

"The dancing, or not acting like a brat?"

She would do both, let's be real here.

Re: Lux, Los Angeles, LA - Portal Pub Crawl, 06/19.

[personal profile] my_own_advocate 2021-06-21 02:23 pm (UTC)(link)

"All you had to do was ask," Octavia said, and if it came off at all bratty, well, she was pulling away from him, and taking his hand.

And tugging him towards the dance floor.

"I thought I did," Lucifer sighed, but he let himself be tugged.
okteiviakom: ([neu] possibly scheming)

Re: Lux, Los Angeles, LA - Portal Pub Crawl, 06/19.

[personal profile] okteiviakom 2021-06-21 03:33 pm (UTC)(link)
He had! And then Octavia had asked for a clarification, and then she'd done as he wished! More or less.

Either way, now that they were in a different, more dancey part of the crowd, she turned to face him again.

Lucifer grinned at her and slid his arms around her waist. "Shall we?"

Re: Lux, Los Angeles, LA - Portal Pub Crawl, 06/19.

[personal profile] okteiviakom 2021-06-21 04:54 pm (UTC)(link)
"We shall," Octavia replied, sliding her own arms around his neck.

And then? They did.
