VIDEO! [Open -ish]

[skilledwithwords]

OPEN

[This video goes out to anyone who Levy has met or even passed by on the streets, also Mikasa Ackerman, Yui Kusanagi, Liv Moore and Yukiko Amagi who Levy knows as David's friends.]

Hi Everyone!

[Levy smiles brightly at the screen. She has been thinking about this for awhile now and she finally has a rough date and idea. Plus she got permission from David.]

I wanted to let you know that David and I are throwing a Holiday party! Please RSVP because I'm going to have fun presents for everyone. It's going to be at our house so if you need directions let me know. It's going to but a fun time!

[Mostly partying and talking.]

It's going to be December 23rd. I don't think anything else is going on that day?

Let me know!

[The feed clicks off giving everyone a chance to check their calender's.]

Private Text to Ted

I have a problem. Are you around or in the office?

[This problem isn't 100% not his fault.]

Private Text to Zeref

You might not want to come to the party but I'm getting you a present.

Comments

[youfool]

Certainly am! What is it?

[skilledwithwords]

Well, what sort of terms are you on with Lucy?

[Levy's going to come find him since she isn't really all that far away when she sends out the video.]

[youfool]

He thought about it. His expression darkened a bit, then he laughed a little. "Now? I couldn't say. If she's the type to hold a grudge, then bad ones, for those are the sorts of terms we left on, unfortunately."

Oh really?! A proper Christmas party? I mean: sure, I'd really LIKE that...

That is to say, of course, I wouldn't feel right attending without a gift for the hosts, of some sort... So tell me, do you drink? I mean, I've seen you mainly on the job, of course, and so.... I don't know what you drink, or even if you drink.....

Liquor, that is to say... I know that all organic creatures actually use MOISTURE of some sort, to survive...

[PRIVATE TEXT!]

[skilledwithwords]

[Levy's laughing but since it's text~]

Why don't you come over and we can talk about it? Besides I could use some help coming up with decorations and I need to pick out the perfect tree. Then decorating the perfect tree.

Might as well start now right?

[PRIVATE TEXT!]

[aphotic_auror]

Don't worry, Levy; Maria's laughing, too!


The "perfect tree" would definitely NOT be those Yew trees outside the archway between Fayren and Everglade, of course; but then: you probably knew that, didn't you?

Anyway, I don't think I can leave the office just yet-- not till Porrim retires for the evening, at least... Unless, of course, we want to lose our Guardian dead on the floor of the office, in the morning...

No, she does NOT notice Levy lurking in the corner, taking NOTES on the "pro-women" conversation that is currently ongoing between the three others of the office!

This is Zeref. I won't be available for the next week or so. I will reply to all messages at my first opportunity.

...

And if that's you, Suigintou, don't make a mess of the place. Please.

{ The message appears to be pre-recorded. The background noise includes the sounds of passing cars, suggesting he was in Genessia City when it was recorded. }

[gammavirginis]

I will definitely make it.

[skilledwithwords]

Great!

[She'd be very sad if Porrim doesn't make it.]

A holiday party?

[Which was curious, because December was the only month without a holiday in Sornieth.]

What kind of holiday is it?

[Video]

[skilledwithwords]

It's called Christmas but everyone has different Holidays around the solstice. It's also the shortest day of the year, at least where I'm from.

There are a lot of different traditions including presents!

[Which Levy plans to try and get something for everyone.]

Video

[celestial_wizard]

Sounds like fun! [ And god knows she needs non stressful things in her life about now. ]

I probably won't be able to stay long, but you know I'll put in an appearance.

Video

[skilledwithwords]

I'm glad!

[She is hoping that Lucy comes and enjoys herself. It was the original point of her throwing the party.]

I'm going to have food and karaoke set up. Do you think that will be enough?

[Levy's basing this on Fairy Tail parties and she isn't sure if having alcohol is a good idea. She wants her house to remain standing come morning.]

[Video]

[innocent_royal]

"I'll be happy to attend the party. Do I need to wear anything specific or bring something to your party?"

[Video]

[skilledwithwords]

You don't have too. I'm going to set up food and drink and things to do and have presents.

[She laughs a little.]

It might be unhelpful but bring what you want. I have everything we need.

( voice )

[whatsbackup]

A holiday party, huh? Are we just talking Earth holidays or what?

[Because honestly, he hasn't even realized the time of year.]

( voice )

[skilledwithwords]

Depends which Earth.

[She laughs softly over the line.]

Don't you think you know me well enough to just call me using video?

[It's honestly what she's used too.]

[namemeansbeauty]

I'll be sure to be there. I'll try not to being a book with me.

video;

[skilledwithwords]

I have a whole room that I turned into a Library. If you feel like retreating up there you are always welcome too.

[She knows that Belle will treat her books well.]

video;

[strawberrypenguin]

Would I need to bring something?

video;

[skilledwithwords]

Just yourself, unless you want to bring something. Honestly more food couldn't hurt.

[She's worried that she isn't going to have enough.]

video.

[rainclouds]

Juvia will certainly come! It's... been awhile since there's been a party where we can all relax, hasn't it.

video.

[skilledwithwords]

It has! I'm hoping this is really fun.

[She's glad to know that Juvia will be there.]

[Video] - The latest of the late

[wizard_redfive]

I'll probably go! I doubt I will have anything else planned.

[Since it's not like she has family around. Of course, there's always the chance that this world might cause its own holiday mayhem, so there's no direct promises. But if that happens, most likely Levy would understand.]

Unless you'll want me to watch the shop while you're there.

[Video] - <3 THATS OKAY

[skilledwithwords]

[Levy laughs.]

We'll close up shop for the day! I'd much rather have you around.

[They've been working so hard and she thinks they all need a fun break, which means a party.]
