Heavenly Blanc Void Party



🥂 HEAVENLY BLANC VOID PARTY 🥂




Who: Everyone!
What: Heavenly Blanc mingle and info exchange
Where: The Heavenly Blanc Bar and Café
When: "August 1"; but really, what is time
Content Warnings: N/A

Maybe you heard through word of mouth, or got an invite from the barista and barkeep directly, or spotted the handwritten paper invites hung up around the area, but there is a gathering happening at the Heavenly Blanc Bar and Café TODAY! So feel free to stop by, hang out, have some drinks, and share some stories.

🍺 DRINKS: Coffee will be served by Ren, and Tifa will be handling the other drinks. There's a wide variety behind the bar, ranging from alcoholic to the non-alcoholic, with delicious cocktails (yes, including virgin ones for the minors) to pick from. And before you ask - no, if you are underage, you may not have alcohol. Tifa will be very strict about it, and anyone who tries to bypass her imposed law will be subject to room temperature tapwater for the rest of the party.

🎲 GAMES: Various boardgames that came along with Le Blanc will be made available for all to play, including a Shogi board for the strategically inclined (and whoever knows how the heck to play it). Along the side wall are two pinball machines, and while they don't light up and make sounds, the mechanisms inside them still work, so they aren't completely out of the picture! Next to them, between the jukebox and the door is a dart board. Please do be mindful when throwing darts, as the light filtering into the bar through the front windows is very minimal.

🤔 INFORMATION EXCHANGE: The important part! When all are gathered inside the bar, Tifa and Ren will make a small announcement for everyone:

"Now that we've all had the chance to take a look around and get our bearings, I wanna encourage everyone to exchange what you know, or what you've found. Even share it with the rest of us! Locations, ideas, theories - anything that could be useful in helping us all figure this out. We all come from different worlds, but we're stuck here, so we're in this together until we're not, yeah? Let's make friends and play nice, and most importantly, have fun today! Oh, and if you're coming and going, make sure to close the door nice and tight behind you."



"It's nice to see everyone. Since we're stuck here together, let's cooperate well."


☕ OOC NOTES ☕



This is the open mingle post for the Heavenly Blanc void party! Please feel free to top-level and tag around.

There is a top-level included here for you to post OOC notes of what their characters have discussed on the log, as well as their own thoughts about the world. If there is anything important that people should know, please reply to the top-level with the information, so that it's easy to find for everyone. General info posts about what your character will be talking about are fine as well. Just please try to avoid multiple edits if you can as you thread if you are going that route! for the sake of my dw inbox...

Because this is an info exchange/mingle post, we encourage thread-jacking. However, we know that not everyone is into that kind of thing, so if you are okay with others hopping into your threads, please be sure to indicate it in your top-level.

Questions about the log can be directed to the ooc post.

Have fun!

[It's called schadenfreude, Cole.

Akechi just offers a shrug and offers the spirit the rest of his darts.]


Well, as we're currently too many people for a proper team, I think I'd like to see you and Ren go head to head. Let's see if that last throw wasn't just beginner's luck, shall we?

[He gives Ren another smirk as he rests a hand on his hip and gestures toward the dart board. Is he using Cole to stoke Ren's competitiveness? Maybe.]

(Huh. Sure. Ren's expression isn't clearing anytime soon.

It's better to begin with a blank board, so he removes the darts and reexplains the math to him, quickly and straightforward so they can play.

701, it is. )


You first, Cole.

(Mostly so he can see whether the ghost can hit bullseye once more...

[Is Ren okay? He can't tell if he's displeased or maybe just has a headache. He wishes he could still tell more than that.]

[Maybe playing this game will help. People like playing games. He still only absorbs so much of the rules. The math involved sounds complicated. He'll just keep aiming for the middle since that seemed to be good to do.]

[He hits the bullseye again, and more dead-on this time.]

Well done.

[Hand on his hip, Akechi gestures to Ren with a wordless so you think you can beat that? smirk.]

I have to wonder, Ren, can you throw your knife in a pinch as well?

I'll show you eventually.

(The answer is yes, but still, he knows Akechi is just antagonizing him, using the competitiveness that they both share for a show.

Unfortunately, it's what he gets, because Ren is refusing to lose. The dart on his hand flies to the board, very close to Cole's in the bullseye.)
theforgottenboy: (now or never)

[Cole is oblivious to the sense of competition in the air, though he's listening to their comments to each other. Once he's sure it's his turn again, he throws once more- it hits just outside of the bullseye this time, only scoring 11 points. Not that he's sure what he scored.]

Is that bad?

Something to look forward to.

[Akechi frowns, mildly disappointed with Cole's throw. He was doing so well.]

It's not ideal. On a poor throw, your partner has to pick up the slack.

[And that's part of why Akechi is so fastidious about hitting the bullseye only. Like hell he's going to rely on anyone else.]

(Akechi, this is darts...

At this point, due to Cole's less than ideal score, Ren is more relaxed. The dart is spinning in a loop, between index and middle finger and back to thumb to restart the pattern.

It's with a confident throw that Ren hits a triple twenty.)


Do they have games where you're from, Cole? (Just curiosity, not mean!)
theforgottenboy: (I'm just an echo of the things I like)

[personal profile] theforgottenboy 2020-08-14 01:57 am (UTC)(link)
[So it was a poor throw. He's far from having the competitive spirit either of them have, but he doesn't want to ruin any of their fun by playing too poorly, either.]

Yes. There are cards, usually. Like Wicked Grace. Varric likes that one.

[He hasn't really grasped the rules of that one yet, either. Games are complicated. It's easier to watch and listen.]

[He takes a little longer preparing his throw this time around, and once again it hits bullseye.]

The place you're from doesn't have much in the way of technology, correct?

[Cole gets an approving nod from Akechi when he hits the bullseye again.]

I assume most of your games involve cards or dice, then. Gambling, almost certainly. Chess, perhaps?
