Welcome Pizza Party!

[lonelinessloop]

WHO: EVERYONE!
WHAT: a welcome party for the new arrivals, with pizza and milkshakes and snacks and candy, dancing games and video games and a big banner that says 'WELCOME!' and music and balloons for everyone!
WHERE: main common room
WHEN: beginning of August
NOTES/WARNINGs: None so far. Party thread!


The main common room has been transformed into party central!!!

There's streamers and balloons and tons of fun and games. Haruka, Luigi, and Duck have made sure that there's a little something for everyone.

There's a food table with all kinds of snacks and candy as well as pizza with every combination of toppings you could ask for.

There's dance games out with their mats on the floor for fun and friendly competitions, and a sign that says there's a scavenger hunt for anyone interested. There's also a bunch of machines, almost like a margarita bar (but of course not!) that offer all kinds of milkshakes and slushies for anyone who'd want one. Fun, happy, upbeat pop music with bubblegum lyrics is playing just loud enough to be fun but not to give anyone a headache.

Haruka had made sure that the kitchen staff knew they wouldn't need to make dinner tonight, and they were using all paper cups and plates so no clean up! Everyone could have fun tonight!

"We just wanted to welcome you all to the Clipper! So enjoy the snacks, and have fun!"

It's a wrist clasp this time, a solid but not gruff one, and he'll offer his own name as they unclasp.

"Garion." A pause. "Not from Earth. And I know a few dances that involve swinging people around, but I haven't gotten to do them for a while."

That was more of a farm dance style, as opposed to the stuff he sees in most of the courts.

"Sounds like fun."

"Nice to meet you." Wrist claps are great, less chance for people to try and bust your finger bones, and B does that warmly, before stepping back again and collecting his drink. "It is a lot of fun. Back in the day, it was probably my favorite thing to do. I'd spend hours in the dance halls. Lindy was just one kind of dance, there's a bunch in that style or similar ones, the Lindy's just my favorite."

"Where I grew up, those kinds of dances usually happen during festivals or celebrations," he says fondly. But he does catch on one thing, something new.

"Dance... halls?"

"Whole buildings dedicated to dancing, drinking, and meeting people," B agrees, a little wistfully. "They call 'em clubs nowadays, mostly."
