house party (open log)

[laserguy]

Who: Scott Summers and anyone stopping by
Where: Scott's new home
What: Irresponsible teenager from 1980s America wants to throw a party like he sees in the movies. Also something something surviving the maze and dealing with the locals being cold suddenly. Also, it's Scott's and Jinx's birthday! Sort of. They're combining it.
Warnings: Underage drinking, teenage stupidity probably, will update as things continue!


[Maybe you saw Scott's post earlier about hosting a party, or just come across his house, the door's open and everything! Scott probably won't mind if it's someone he dislikes, but he'll just have to suck it up anyway! It's probably good there's not a lot of furniture in the house yet, leaving the space more open for people to mingle and play games. If it gets too crowded, well, there's always the front yard and a couple of rooms to hide yourself in.

Of course, it isn't a party without:

Food: Scott's only scourged up snacks on his end, along with a couple of pizza boxes and sandwiches, so potluck style, bring something that will amaze the other guests or make use of the bathrooms in the house looking at you Mitama.

Drinks: Along with some water and juice, it wouldn't be a party without alcohol. There's a keg of beer that he somehow acquired that people can pour into their cup. Sadly, he doesn't really have any other alcoholic drinks unless someone else decides to bring some!

Games: Any stereotypical game you can think of will probably be played, from Truth or Dare, to Seven Minutes in Heaven, Never Have I Ever, Would you Rather, Spin the Bottle, and etc. There's also a table where people can set up a game of beer pong at.]

I dunno, busy.

( she grumbles this more while attempting to look unfazed. )

— When you're out doin' missions and keeping losers in line every day and murdering a few empty heads, it's hard to make room for a romantic night on the town.

[orphne]

[Kotone hums a little sympathetically, but she doesn't really get it. First of all, maybe she should have a bigger reaction to "murdering a few empty heads," but as far as she knows, Jinx isn't killing people here and having Dazai around has kind of numbed that initial reaction. Second of all, Kotone was also extremely busy back home, but she always made time to hang out with her friends! That's most of why she was so busy and slept in class more often than not!]

Are you doing all that here?

[opheliac]

( a mischievous smirk curls at the end of her lips at the question. jinx almost took a sip of her drink out of sheer habit, but quickly reminds herself that she isn't meant to unless there's a statement being said of whether or not she did that thing. )

Wouldn't you like to know?

( of course she does, hence the question. but the teen isn't going to give up any information about what she does in her spare time here. that's something only between her and her dear old dad need to worry about. )

[orphne]

[Yes?? She would?? Kotone just kind of frowns a little, less in genuine worry and more in mild concern. Well, sounds like she won't really have time for dates if she's still doing that kind of thing-! Actually, hang on, hadn't Usagi said something about how Jinx was committing crimes...

Mentally, Kotone moves Jinx from the "maybe ask her on a friendly date for fun" category to the "crazy, kind of difficult," category. Still not a deal-breaker, but definitely way lower on the priority list.]

Well, I guess you have to stay busy somehow...

[opheliac]

Yep! Believe me, you'd hate me if I get really bored.

( so anyhow, she is going to turn the conversation around her. )

What about you, Sunshine? You go on a lotta dates?

[orphne]

[Edgy(tm). Kotone just shrugs.]

I guess so! Spending time with my friends one-on-one has always been really important.

[That is not what Jinx meant and she knows it, but she just grins at her and taps her fingers against her drink.]

Any hangout can be a date if it's fun enough!

[opheliac]

( "any hangout can be a date"? that is such a bunny hopper statement (aka people who just change boys/girls like they change their underwear). not that she sees anything wrong with it, of course. zaun had a brothel and it was one of the most popular establishments in her city besides the bar. therefore, she is pretty use to people living that sort of lifestyle and viewing relationships as a very light thing than serious. )

Yyyyeaaah, you got a point. Expect the unexpected and all that noise.

[orphne]

I don't know about all that.

[She almost takes a drink before remembering oops, no, they're playing a game. Can't drink yet! But just gives Jinx another smile instead.]

I just think it's important to have fun with your friends. You never know how long you're gonna have with them.

[She says that way too casually for such a downer statement.]

[opheliac]

( that definitely brought the mood down a little, but jinx tries not to dwell on the thought of losing those who are important to her for too long. this is a party and she is celebrating her birthday -- it's all about having fun right now and those thoughts are not welcomed. )

Mm. So I take it you know Scott or didya decide to come for the free food and booze?

[orphne]

[She doesn't seem bothered by it! It's one of those things she had to learn to accept a long time ago. With a laugh, she holds out one hand to offer a handshake.]

Yeah, I'm friends with Scott. You are too, right? My name's Kotone Shiomi. I made a bunch of the sweets over there!

[So instead of coming for the free food, she came bearing food.]

[opheliac]

( she takes the hand and shakes it even though it's a little weird to do so. not like people in runeterra don't shake hands, they do, especially the topsiders with all of their political stupidity. but it's not often anyone wants to shake her hand when there might be a mini explosive hidden in her palm somehow. )

Yep, the name's Jinx. And before you ask, it stands for Jinx.

( the girl just likes to get that out there in a rare chance someone asks if her name has some sort of meaning. spoilers, it' does but she isn't the kind to tell it to just anyone. flickering her eyes to the table of sweets, she nods slowly. )

Aaah, so you're in charge of the sweets. Gotta say, it ain't half bad! I had a few.
