Holiday party at the Laughing Toadstool
The Laughing Toadstool: A tavern that tends to pop up in any given place as it's proprietress hops from universe to universe. People from a thousand worlds find their way here sometimes, and Iren Suto, the owner, is always there to hire on temp staff or to give hungry people food and tired people somewhere to rest.
But what this post is REALLY about is an excuse for all our characters to mingle together and have a holiday party! The late 1800s aesthetic of the tavern is already plenty cozy, but Iren has pulled out all the stops. Colored lights add a festive air to the night, a big fire in the hearth keeps everyone warm from the snowfall outside, delicious smells waft in from the kitchen as the staff prepare hearty meals for everyone, boughs of mistletoe have be hung up here and there, there's even a gift exchange!
So come on in and warm yourself up. We have punch and pie!
Some Prompts!
1: Dinner - Roast turkey, stuffing, a dozen kinds of bread, casseroles, stew and soup, another dozen desserts. It's a bigass dinner. Stuff yourself until you can barely walk anymore! Pass the gravy please!
2: Drinks - There's TWO punch bowls, and one is clearly labeled as being spiked. There's also a selection of wines, liquors, beers, and the house specialty: Mead! Get drunk.
3: Mistletoe - These innocuous little green decorations come with a terrible curse: If you meet someone under the mistletoe, you have to kiss them. It's not, like, magically enforced or anything, but people MAY make fun of you if you chicken out.
4: Snow fight - It's not snowing THAT hard outside. Get out there and throw snowballs at each other! Make sure you're miserably cold before you come back inside to warm up.
5: Dancing - The Laughing Toadstool has a small dance floor, and there's a band playing cheery tunes for the evening. Grab a partner for a cheery jig or for a slower, more intimate dance.
6: Music - And speaking of music, we need musicians! Or a DJ, though good luck finding an outlet in a building this old fashioned.
7: Presents - It's not EXACTLY the normal place to do a gift exchange, but Iren is making a production out of it if you want to give a gift to someone special to you.
8: Work night - Yes, it's a party, but sadly setting all this up wasn't effortless. Iren needs people to cook, to clean, to bartend, and to generally keep everyone happy. Sucks that you gotta work during the holidays like this but a paycheck is a paycheck.
999: wildcard! - Or come up with your own starter! I'm not the boss of you!

[Right now Cassi's just... sitting below a table. What? It's a comfy place to drink and eat!]
3. playing unfair with mistletoe
[A certain catgirl android has just deliberately stepped up into someone's personal space and is now looking at them with a look of expectations.]
It's okay if you don't want to, but let's get with the kissy lips~
[Wait, did that mistletoe just move to right above her and her victim?]
4. playing unfair with snow
[A perfectly aimed snowball heading straight for Cassi just... suddenly changes direction. She turns and looks at the thrower with mischief in her expression.]
7. gifts for everyone
[After messing around, Cassi's now doing a nice thing and handing out gifts to everyone she sees. Hey, she can afford it.]

It's nice in here, but you know me, I like spaces like this.

I can see why... It's way quieter down here. Wouldn't mind some cushions or chairs, but... There's too many people out there.

Hey, if Cassi was going to use magic, Iren was too!
Re: 4
...
She bursted out into laughter.
"Looks like you've got some fun tricks, too!"
Her soul flames flared up as she began doing... something while moving to make herself harder to hit.
no subject
Iren shrank, metaphorically, in the light of Cassi’s soul flames. Honestly she had already used almost a quarter of her magic power on that one trick.
“I-I was thinking maybe we should just stick to a normal snow fight..?”
no subject
With a smile, Cassi dropped whatever the hell she was doing, her soul flames dying down, and scooped up a regular snowball, then flung it.

Since none of the staff want to deal with him, Iren herself comes out to take his order.]
…Welcome to the Laughing Toadstool. C-can I get you anything, sir?

Re: Reva | OC | OTA
[ Incoming collission from behind! It's approximately shaped like a hug?? ]
I installed an alcohol module!
no subject
Why?
[She is. Somewhat amused, though her face is as blank as ever.]
no subject
[ Technically you could wire an alcohol mod to just get you drunk for free, but it's more fun if you set it up so you have to actually drink alcohol first. ]
no subject
... Incidentally, how do you feel about photos being taken of you?
[Reva is ever the one who would prefer to not get drunk, so she can use the antics of the drunk ones against them later.]
no subject
[ Stacia throws an arm around Reva's shoulder and throws a peace sign. Does she even have a camera on her? ]
no subject
You were ready, huh?
no subject
[Is it, though.]
