We hereby start the Void Calendar! All over the Void since yesterday, several handwritten notes have been taped or stapled to the Void's most populated areas in the hopes to drive the people to the popular bar/cafe. Heavenly Blanc's exterior has been protected from any upcoming storms by a large awning, and more tables and chairs have been temporarily set to settle any issues of overcrowding on the inside. Upon entering, one will be able greeted by the aroma of curry, although the spices vary from pot to pot, and coffee and alcohol will be served throughout the evening.

Within the interior of the bar, a small space has been divided and cleared out -- next to the jukebox. There, one will find a few microphones resting on their stands, waiting for whoever is brave enough to sing on them to whatever is playing in Heavenly Blanc when the storm hits. Last, but not least, a whiteboard has been visibly placed next to the entrance. It reads: "Names of the Months", and you may either write your own or add sticks to vote on your favorites.

[His deeeep secret..... Iwa, do you really wanna fux with this?]

[Blue puts on a sulky pout as he balks, and shrugs back into his drink to hide it.] That's a messed up thing to joke about.... [Hit a sore spot, perhaps? But Blue doesn't seem to be talking about it, latching back onto the supposed monster cats, instead. Although it's possible he may have stretched the lie a little thin; Blue seems to be getting skeptical.] Huuuuh, your world sounds kinda dangerous if they're so wild... Don't you have any other Pokémon to battle 'em with?

[bluecastleace]

Nope.

[Simple enough. He takes a drink. This is quickly becoming an obvious lie, which kind of makes it more funny (though he does still feel a little bad - just not enough).]

Our society pretty much revolves around trying to contain them.

[halloflamer]

Hmmmmm.

[By this point, Iwa's act is falling apart, and Blue's a little annoyed about it, but he's also too drunk to bother putting in the effort to call it out.]

[Now, it's a match of who will be too lazy to keep up the act, first!!]

That seems preeeetty sucky! [He finally declares, and shrugs his shoulders.] Guess you must be better off around here, huh?

[bluecastleace]

[Well, if Blue was expecting this to become some sort of competition, he’ll be disappointed. Iwa’s act falls apart completely when he says “better off around here”, and his expression settles into a heavy glare.]

To hell with that.

If any one of us is “better off around here”, then their world really did suck in the first place. Asshole.

[He takes a stubborn drink, grumbling:] I was just fucking with you. Buzzkill ass.

[halloflamer]

[Whatever eat shit, Iwa!! He still wins this. He looks plenty satisfied with Iwa's grumbling, though he takes offense to being called a buzzkill!]

Who's the asshole, people's family dying ain't funny, you know.

[Blue jabs him in the arm with a pointed finger, and muses over his own drink.] You're not wrong about this place, though.

[bluecastleace]

[Iwa realizes belatedly that he may, in fact, be the asshole. His faces falls a bit, but it still looks more irritated than anything.]

Yeah, whatever. Sorry.

[He rubs his arm where he’s been jabbed, grumbling a bit.]

Anyway, you’re right on that. It sucks here. [Another drink, but he realizes his glass is empty. His frown deepens.]

[halloflamer]

[That's one thing they can agree on firmly. Blue holds the taste of his drink in his mouth for a moment of thoughtful pause, swishing around as he contemplates the tone of vitriol in Iwa's words.]

Something happen? [He asks, glancing toward him and his empty glass. He feels like maybe he should cut the kid off- he doesn't seem like he's in a great mood to begin with, and fueling it more seems... irresponsible....]

[But then again, being who he is, Blue feels a little hypocritical to pull the ol' 'do as I say not as I do', so with a gulp and a sigh of exasperation, he reaches for Iwa's glass to refill it.] You know, it's supposed to take the edge off, not pile more on.

[bluecastleace]

All that happened is I remembered where I am.

[And, as Blue has predicted, drinking while depressed does not do the soul particularly good. Iwa grumbles again, tossing his cup off to the side like a damn litterbug.]

It is what it is. I’ll be fine. [And yet his expression is pained.

[He pauses a bit, looks off to the side like he might walk away and end the conversation, but then, still staring off, he adds.]

It’s pretty fucked up, don’t you think, that only half the people show up here with the people they should be with.
