[Closed] At least there's adults at this party

[missingache]

Who: All KH characters + their shinki (if applicable), Urashima, Nohr clan, Aymeric, Sheryl, and Jakob
What: A huge meetup because people need to see faces that go with names
Where: Artemis' and Baldr's temples respectively
When: May 21st - 22nd (Basically show up whenever and leave whenever)
Warnings: N/A


[Those invited will have most likely gotten a text or other way of communication to let them know there was something going on at this time and date. There is no set time per say, so it's an open invitation to show up even before sunrise if you feel crazy enough to deal with the wildlife in Artemis' place.

The party can be spent between the two places that are somehow linked by a trail. Either side will have amenities/foods/entertainment suitable for a meetup (though if you want tea/coffee, stick to the side that isn't Baldr's place).

There will be a sign on Artemis' side that warns of getting near the bear or deer since they are skittish around too many people, so one side of Artemis' temple will be sealed off to visitors unless you ask very nicely to see the deer. There will also be a sign that reads "NO SWIMMING IN THE LAKE". At least there's a nice fire in the fire pit on the patio, and those who stay the night at this temple will... see a bunch of glow in the dark stars on the ceiling.

Baldr's side... pretty much do whatever you want within godly legal limits? If you want to swim, go to that side. If you want to sleep under the stars, go to that side. If you want to be around wildlife that can't possibly gore you to death or maul you (unless it's your unlucky day and the bear decides to hang at the beach), go to that side.]


[ooc: treat this like a mingle! have at it!]

[Senri's smile fades into an expression of concerned confusion. This guy seems... angry? But why? Has Senri done something wrong?

After a moment, he nods hesitantly. He's not trying to cause trouble. He just wanted honey.]

[gentilitea]

[ Once it looks like Senri’s behaving himself Jakob turns to find that jar of honey he’d been using for the teas and such—wondering if he should maybe pour the stuff out into a saucer or just hand it to Senri, jar and all.

He decides to go with the saucer route, placing a generous dollop of honey therein and even presenting it to Senri on a salver. Since, you know, he’s been behaving himself and he kinda appreciates that… ]

I suppose this would be sufficient?

[bear_necessities]

[Well, Senri would rather just have the whole jar but giving him a smaller amount is probably for the best.

He nods. This is fine. And then he picks up the saucer, dips a finger in the honey and licks it off. And then repeats. Mmm.... tasty.]

[gentilitea]

[ Jakob would have turned around to take care of whatever it is he’s supposed to do in the kitchen, but some baffling sense of curiosity roots him to this one spot, watching Senri daintily set to the honey, and he’s honestly not sure how to feel about it all.

Is he being punk’d? It still feels like he’s being punk’d.

After a moment of silence he has to speak up or he’ll go crazy: ]

You…are a strange one.

[bear_necessities]

[He pauses, mid finger lick, to tilt his head at Jakob curiously. Is he strange? Honestly Senri has no idea. He supposes he's.... different?

After a very long moment, he nods uncertainly. If Jakob thinks he's strange, then he probably is.]

[gentilitea]

As a matter of fact… [ he continues, peering critically into Senri’s face. ] You remind me of someone I used to know…

[bear_necessities]

[Senri goes back to eating the honey but regards Jakob's comment with curious interest.

Does he mean someone who likes sweets? Or someone who is quiet? Or maybe just someone who is part bear? Either way, Senri would sort of like to meet them.]

[gentilitea]

Alas, he is no longer with us. [ Harsh, Jakob. But the man he’s considering is in fact two of those things, although since Senri’s not really asking and Jakob feels kind of embarrassed at having mentioned something so deeply personal to him, he draws back with a huff instead. ]

Well, I presume you are satisfied either way? That is all the honey you will be getting tonight.

[bear_necessities]

[Concerned frown. Jakob seems upset again. Senri isn't sure what he keeps doing wrong. He wonders if a head pat would help? Although he's not sure how that would be received.

But he has no more time to contemplate that.

This is the only honey he's getting tonight? He'd better not waste a drop. After looking down at the honey again he raises the saucer and starts licking the rest of it up. No, he's never heard of table manners.]

[gentilitea]

[ Senri is wise not to have risked the headpat. Who knows what he might have unleashed…

It’s bad enough that Jakob looks entirely unimpressed with how Senri’s taking all the rest of the honey. He should have provided him with a spoon, but there’s sucking it out of a saucer and then there’s outright lapping at the tableware.

He sighs. ]

Come now. Behaving so greedily is hardly good manners.

[bear_necessities]

[Good manners? The baffled expression and head tilt as he lowers the saucer make it clear that this 'manners' thing is a new concept.

But he understands that Jakob is telling him to stop licking the saucer. Except... there's still some honey on it. What should he do?]

[gentilitea]

[ He sighs—inwardly, anyway. Does this guy really not know how to do, like, anything?

He decides to just drop the issue entirely, and waves his hand to shoo at him. ]

Never mind. You are unlikely to keep it up for long, anyway. [ Honey-hoarding bastard that Jakob is. ] But I have more meals to prepare, so out with you—and do try not to make a mess.

[bear_necessities]

[Senri isn't sure why Jakob still seems upset with him, but he nods.

Before he leaves though, he snags a napkin from the counter. To perhaps wipe some errant honey off his face? No. He pulls out a small book and tucks the napkin inside.]

[gentilitea]

[ Poor Senri. May you hang out with people less crotchety than Jakob—which is practically everybody, honestly.

Jakob had almost made to protest about that napkin, but decides against it when he realizes Senri could very well fix his mess and—

You know what? Fuck it. At least the book’s safe? Jakob’s pretty sure he doesn’t want to know either way. ]
