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.

i. arrival :)
(he didn't even want to be here. of course, he had seen the notes around kichijoji, and they were promptly ignored by the man. last party kimihiro attended only reassured him that he isn't fit for it. he can't even remember being in one in which he wasn't working to appease yuuko's every whim - "watanuki, get the sake", or "make this super complicated dish that you have no time for". so he's definitely out of it, or at least he thought he was, until iwaizumi came bursting into his house and literally putting him on his shoulders to drag him out.

kimihiro is skinny, his greatest qualities being agility and speed over strength. iwaizumi easily takes him, and all kimihiro can do is bitch and nag the way to heavenly blanc. by the time they arrive, kimihiro is not done.)


Put me down, you brute. If you're to drag me out of my house all the way here, at least go fetch me a drink. (he says, attempting to put his kimono back in place with gritted teeth, until iwaizumi does it. ooooh, he's not happy at all. catch the grumpy witch outside, pipe between his lips and angry mutterings under his breath.) Seriously, which screw is loose?


ii. new years traditions
(at some point in the party, kimihiro disappears. one may think that he returns to the hole he hides in, but no. if we're going to do new years, might as well draw from an ancient tradition - takoage. he returns to the party with a kite in hands, made from sticks found in the wounds and cloth he had taken from the school uniform to perhaps make into something later. good thing it eventually did. his own bears his symbol, painted in black ink.

he has also brought enough for anyone who would like to join him, and for those who are curious about why he is kite flying mid-party, he's happy to explain.)


iii. otoso - three way thread!
(inside is just waaaaaaay too loud for his old man ears. instead, he's sitting outside, a second bottle to try and be more social. he knows there will be whining if he attempts to leave before the new year arrive. so catch him here, downing his cup, smoking his pipe, doing what he does best. when the clocks strike midnight, he bows gently to the sake before downing it, leaving other two cups on the table for anyone who would like to indulge him.)

[ A: Mingling. ]

[ As people start to arrive, Ann goes about greeting them the best she can. She's not exactly a social butterfly by any stretch of the imagination, but she's doing this for Ren because he's busy doing.... other things. Like making food and generally being Himselfâ„¢. While she's greeting people, she's also running around and getting drinks for people and food and what not.

Feel free to stop her to say hi, or ask for something, because [at least for the first few hours] she's going to be helping out wherever Ren needs. She can be found bustling around here and there, and just stopping by the drink station, grabbing a cup and some punch.

At some point, she takes a swig of her drink and wrinkles her nose. Huh. ]


[ B: Hanging on by a thread and closing in on Midnight. ]

[ Ann's hustling and bustling had slowed down significantly over the course of the last few hours. Not because she's run out of steam -- she's overly energetic usually, and, at first, she had been. What's happened, is that the drink that she's been sipping on is not exactly one that's meant for the younger crowd. At first, she hadn't really noticed, other than the taste was a little off, but she'd thought little of it. Maybe just a wonky Void ingredient.

A few hours later, having finally nearly downed half of the liquid in her cup (she's a lightweight apparently, shut up) she's no longer seeing entirely straight, and she's also realized that she's made a terrible mistake. This is probably fine.

So, don't miiiiiind Ann if she slowly attempts to walk here or there, nearly tipping herself over. And don't comment how she sits, slouched and staring blankly into space with her head slightly tilted because in her view, the room is also tilted. In the background, on the jukebox, the world's most annoying song plays.

...Just please. Don't get her another drink. Happy New Year! ]

1. Arrival

[Seen here, literally carrying Kimihiro Watanuki in over his shoulder while the other bitches incessantly.]

((ooc: please respond to the three-way thread option under Watanuki’s TL rather than here if you’d like to interact!))

2. Month Name Voting

[Look (not too) closely and you might catch Iwaizumi (not so) stealthily leaving this suggestion under a certain other Void-dweller’s suggestion on the month-naming board.]

3. Mingling

[For the rest of the evening, Iwaizumi can be found mingling about the party, partaking in curry, a couple of drinks (it’s a party!), and most decidedly NOT karaoke (but you could try to convince him). By a certain point in the night he seems to be just buzzed enough to be smiling rather than scowling, at least. Come say hi!]

I. Entrance

[For once, Kaiba doesn't feel the need to make one of his more dramatic entrances, he had that covered at the previous party when he was hurling accusations at.. nothing. No, this time it's strictly business on the off chance that someone will be bringing new information to the table. Imagine his disappointment when that segment is omitted from this gathering, not that the invitation had made any mention of such a thing.

Sometimes a party was just A party. What a disappointment.

So, after answering the inane question posed about what to call the months he finds a wall to support. Hopefully this wouldn't lead to a repeat of the past void party but so help him if that spiky-haired trainer gets in his face again
]

II. Gotta Amuse Yourself Somehow..

[Having found a table to park at, he was tinkering away at a device, likely something he picked up at the beach. While it's in pieces it's harder to identify, but it's like a puzzle. Disassembling it and putting it back together is infinitely more interesting than enduring karaoke or another round of darts. Besides, it's just nice working with his hands again. Anything to discourage socialization.

Pausing on his work, he sighed and sat back in his chair. Maybe he should call it a loss and leave early.
]

III. Something else

Hey, watch it!

[Eyes flashing, and lips curling back in a snarl as one of the more inebriated attendees nearly dumped the contents of their cup on him. Kaiba doubted it was an accident. Pushing his chair back he got to his feet to loom over the offending party.]

You've had enough.. but I'm not here to babysit.

[Frown never leaving his features]

Why don't you remove yourself to the other side of the room.

i. [ sorry izumi's late, he didn't want to come

but he knows better than to sit around and do nothing in the void so he may as well mingle with these other weirdos. he's more or less just wallflowering though, treating himself to coffee while raising a eyebrow at the people who are just going to grab some alcohol. if you look older enough, then fine - literally knock yourself out. but if anyone around his age or even younger is going to reach out for the punch -- ]


Are you even old enough to drink that? Drinking alcohol doesn't make you any more mature than the actual adults here, you know.

[ yeah he's judgy. he's going to be real testy during this party, RIP. is it any wonder he's going to keep to himself for the rest of the night? ]

ii. [ karaoke... he really isn't the type to participate in that most of the time back home, to be honest - too busy performing in an actual audience and all. and like, fine. he didn't have the most beautiful of voices when he was just starting out as an idol either. everyone's going have to start somewhere.

but anytime someone finishes their song on that impromptu stage, they'll be met with a bored expression on izumi's face as he just sits there. ]


Really? That's all you can do? And I thought you gave it all up there.

[ see? judgy. ]

wildcard

[ y'all know what to do. please help him lighten up a little, at least. ]

I. Arrival

[Noct isn't really a party guy, but being here is better than hanging out in the apartment by himself - and honestly, he's starting to actually call people around here friends, so he might as well.]

[He veers away from the obvious karaoke set-up, keeping his head down and avoiding anyone who might try to talk him into singing, and eventually finds a table to occupy, a plate of fries and soda at hand.]


II. Hanging Out

[Noct keeps his distance from the karaoke set-up throughout the night but he does mingle some. He spends a while throwing darts - he's actually surprisingly good, considering his general attitude about anything else sport related - and more time snacking and drinking, though he keeps to sodas except for a ceremonial alcoholic drink around midnight.]

III. Wild Card

[Other than karaoke, it'll be pretty easy to drag him into anything, so let me know what you have in mind!]

A. IT'S BEEN 50 YEARS, BUT,

[ excuse me, excuse me, the setup near the jukebox has absolutely been changed around in the middle of whatever shenanigans everyone's absolutely gotten into. a table's been pushed up beside the microphone stands, with the following crudely drawn sign in front:



can you read that mess? whatever, it doesn't matter. because there's an orange-haired disaster going up to the mics and tapping one so you don't have to think about it too hard!

or, uh. he's going to make you think about it harder. ]


Attention, attention, one, two. He~ya, everyone! I'm Leo Tsukinaga [ ruiner of books ] and I'm totally bored!

[ is this a bad stand-up comedy routine? no-- ]

Soooo, I got to thinking... [ the audience: you think? ] You know what's missing? Besides an exit, food variety, and funny cat pictures from the internet -- oh, yeah! There's one called Little John around here. Don't feed her anything weird! Anyway, I was thinking... we're missing an idol group! So, here ya go, we're starting Shoes... [ wait, give him a sec to squint at the sign ] Shoeslap Meowth now. Right now! I'm not leading it or anything, but... C'mere, c'mere, stand your pretty self here at the mic and give us your name, a fun little detail about yourself that I'm gonna forget, and a song! Show me and everyone else what you got! Unless you're too scared to, and if you are then do it even harder you wittle baby, wahahaha! Okay, bye!

[ this explained nothing and everyone's probably more confused as leo walks away to his table...

... until he runs back on over, as if remembering something, and adds in: ]


Oh, yeah! Sena and Naru aren't exempt! You guys may be Knights, but you sure as heck aren't Shoelap Meouch! Okay, bye for sure now!

[ someone please take away his mic privileges ]

B. WILDCARD.

[ obligatory option. hit leo up with anything! when he comes in and lets the new, chubby cat into heavenly blanc... hmming and hawwwing over the punch before immediately going gross about it, drawing bars of music for month suggestions instead of ACTUAL THINGS YOU CAN SAY etc. etc. ]
