New Year's Eve Countdown Party

[yesterdays_hero]

WHO: Captain Hammer and his invited guests (i.e. no villains allowed unless you want to get Hammered)
WHAT: Hammer's rented a glitzy clubhouse for the New Year's Eve party, as a means of cementing the bonds between Genessia's true heroes, sidekicks, and fans. Time to show off those party dresses! There's food, music, and fireworks once the clock strikes twelve.
WHEN: December 31st, 2013 - 8pm and past midnight into January 1st, 2014 (forward-dated)
WHERE: Regency Apartments Clubhouse - Genessia City
NOTES: Mingle freely! If you want a specific type of thread, such as 'snack table' or 'dancing', feel free to start one up! I don't want to limit people.


If one thing could be said about Captain Hammer, it was that he cleaned up nicely. If two things could be said, it's that he can throw one hell of a party. As a city guardian, he can afford it, and a guardian's job encompasses more than just punching the bad guys in the ego.

Heaps of food, ranging from light vegetable hors d'ouerves to thin slices of expensive cheese and meats to elegantly crafted cream puffs, are arranged on several tables throughout the room. There's more than one punch bowl, though each is clearly labeled as to which ones are for the adults, and which ones are okay for the kiddies.

The middle of the floor is mostly cleared, save for those who have taken the initiative to bust a groove and start dancing to the smooth tunes laid out by the hired DJ.

Captain Hammer expected a decent turnout, and he was sure there would be a fair share of shenanigans if his sidekicks teammates were any indication. He'd posted a number of lookouts around the building to alert him if there were any signs of trouble. So if Hammer was frequently seen excusing himself and returning while brushing off the dirt from his tuxedo, pay him no mind. He was just making sure the party ran smoothly and uninterrupted.

Mm?

[Cherise turns at the tap, then smiles at the gesture of approval. She lays her fingertips against her collarbone modestly.]

You're too kind. Yours is absolutely stunning as well, might I add.

[whos_this_bitch]

[She just shrugs with a grin. Modesty in spades, clearly.

Then she chuckles and reaches for the comm that she's got tucked away in the top part. The typing is very very fast.]

I jest. Thank you very much.

[broken_trifecta]

[She's...mute? Cherise raises a brow questioningly, glancing between the device and the woman. Not deaf, apparently, since she seemed to react to Cherise's words.]

Would you rather I spoke to you with this...?

[Hers is in her pocketbook, which she touches with an inquisitive look.]

[whos_this_bitch]

[She shakes her head, though she's thankful for the thoughtfulness of the gesture.]

It's fine. I am limited to this method of communication due to the fact my true voice could lead to some bad effects on I'm not sure how many people here. It's better not to find out, in my opinion.

[broken_trifecta]

[Cherise's reaction was obvious. A voice that had adverse effects on people? Her head didn't move, but her eyes slanted sharply to regard the woman, lips pursed in quiet judgment. That's something to be wary of, but she doesn't seem like she intends any harm or selfishness. Cherise tells herself to relax. Not everyone who has access to powerful spells and effects is a criminal, for crying out loud. So she looks back at the screen to read the rest, then nods.]

That's understandable. Can you tell me more about that?

[whos_this_bitch]

[The grin might just turn a little sheepish]

Their heads explode.

[Just...yeah, that.]

[broken_trifecta]

...I hope you're not serious.

[It's getting increasingly hard to tell with this woman.]

[whos_this_bitch]

[Just nodding.]

[broken_trifecta]

[Cherise still looks skeptical.]

Then why are you still in this world? Aren't you supposed to be omnipotent?
