PRIDE TIME

PRIDE NIGHT!
Welcome to Enodia Pride Night 2023! Crysta has transformed the Space Between into the hottest club in Vermont to fully and correctly ring out the best month of the year, the LBGTQIA+ community, and the collective queerness and vibrance of the station. This is a space for expression! Shameless celebration! Make music, make noise, make mistakes, it's all love! The music (A VERY SPECIAL playlist) is loud, the lights are low until roving rainbow spotlights catch you, and a constant stream of rainbow glitter flows through the pride flags curtaining the walls. Thanks to Enoch, though, it's not actually contributing to pollution; just an illusion. Please don't worry about microplastics.

The vibe's a little messy, chaotic but warm. The bass beats loud and frantic, but its heartbeat undercurrent screams that as soon as you're through the door, you're home, whoever you are. Though obviously influenced by her party roots, Crysta did try to be aware of where she lives now (nerd city) and included overflow areas for people to celebrate a little more quietly if they so choose. And privately. Wink. Dress code is honestly whatever you feel comfortable in, but with the encouraged prerogative to look and feel drop dead hot. Ground rules are simple; just welcome each other how you'd like to be welcomed, look out for each other, and party hard. EVERYONE is invited! There've been (OOC) net announcements for several weeks now, and colorful fliers hanging everywhere. You CANNOT miss this.

DRINKS!

Along with normal bar selections there's some specialty cocktails including but not limited to:
THE JUICE with blue curacao, vodka lemonade and cranberry juice
BI-GLORY MOLE: Confusing as it is delightful. A frozen sprite, butterfly pea and rosella tea slushie with or without a shot of liquor of your choice
RAINBOW JELLO SHOTS which are plentiful and self explanatory
THE GINDERQUEER for the refined; sparkling lemon water,empress gin, little bit of lavender syrup

FOOD:
Oh. Shoot!
Crysta forgot about this until literally today and sold the commissary out of chips and snacks and basically hostage-situationed the chefs at Food Here to make enough sliders and miniature grilled cheeses and other party food at the eleventh hour. Maybe best to eat before you come.


VOLUNTEERS?

Zeke Zelizer and Volunteer B lock themselves in the closet for the kissing game...right as everyone else walks away to do something else. Beulah walked away to get another Juice so she doesn't automatically hear their panic after half an hour. Better get comfy! They'll be in there for at least 45 minutes.


Maximillian Hart does get comfy. Like. A little too comfy, and falls asleep in the corner of the bouncy house. Volunteers D and Volunteer E are trying to just get some bouncing in, but instead join in for a little nap break.


Zira Bailey knows how to WORK that stage and that pole and has so many bills thrown at them they make kind of a killing. Career change time?


Annie Song gets super annoyed at how slow the bar is and jumps behind it and gets roped in for an hour shift for their trouble.


Taby McLeod drinks one too many and is convinced there's glitter in their eye. They panic until Finn MacCool takes pity and dumps a water bottle into their eye to placebo-effect it out.


Volunteer J has a big time wardrobe malfunction but Volunteer K saves the day and drapes them in a VERY haute progress flag toga from the wall.It's a GOOD look.


Volunteer L's feet keep sticking to the floor. Like a lot. They cannot get out. Is this too much spilled jello? Is this that guy in Operations who can't control his weird sticky flytrap limb powers? Doesn't matter! Help!
LOCATIONS
It's very important today! Post your outfits! The people you came with! Your vibes! Also a good time to note that the moment you walk in there's a photobooth opportunity to take a selfie in case you want to preserve your lewk in the moment before it gets spilled on or messy. That's IMPORTANT.
Get a drink! Stay awhile. The bar staff received these specialty drink recipes less than 24 hours ago, but they're doing a great job. Everything is free!
Dance until you die! The carefully curated playlist booms through the night so there's not a lot of space for singing performances, but there's absolutely a slightly elevated stage area with a pole to dance on in case anyone feels Inspired. Otherwise, grab a partner, or just feel those beats and dance solo.
This is where some of the official/unofficial party games will take place, it's a cozy corner laden with bean bag chairs and pillows for a little breaktime area, cordoned off by a door made of tinsel. It's quieter, thanks to someone's muffling powers, and more well-lit. A great place to have actual conversations and get to know people better. Speaking of. Conveniently located right next to the corner is a maintenance closet big enough to fit two people at once. Hmmm...

Volunteer M loops in Beulah Stump, an Operations employee with the weird liminal power of locking doors for a certain amount of time. Time for a cheeky game of Unknown Number of Minutes in Hell Heaven!! A group of people begin to spin a beer bottle to tempt destiny and choose a partner for a good time in the closet. One problem. The closet is only supposed to lock for 7 minutes, but Beulah's honestly a lil tipsy and her power isn't very well-controlled right now. You could be stuck in there with your bottle partner for up to 30 minutes. (This is JJ's idea thank you JJ)

HOW IT WORKS: Post your character's name and the next ordered number in the fashion of 1) Crysta Waldinger in the subject line of a comment. In the body of your comment, please indicate how many times people you would like to be able to land on your character's number. (If someone has enough partners, just skip them and roll again!) When enough people have posted that you'd like to tempt fate, roll 1-(number of people there are) and then comment on the corresponding person's name. Also roll 1-30,which will determine how many minutes you'll be spending with that person and stick that in the comment too. This is still a place for enthusiastic consent! You don't have to kiss in the closet! Maybe it's a time for a nice chat.
Right outside the Space Between, there's a quieter area where people can go outside to have a little drink in even more silence underneath the beautiful manufactured sky. However, there's also a rainbow shaped bouncy house!
If you would like your performance graded, please fill out this form! The judges are two identical twin nurses from medical with synchronised movement powers so they know about Style. But in reality this is all RNG bb. There's an unknown terrible prize for the unofficial winner. Please do not bonk your head in order to win.
Questions, comments, concerns?

Oh no. Eden looks up at Sal, then down at the bottle, then up at Sal. Her strategy since The Big Think Tank Talk has been duly avoiding him, just to keep from having to explain the whole if-you-touch-me-smart-people-said-I-might-die thing, but that's easy to do without someone noticing if you aren't super close.

This situation, in public and drunk, makes that so weird. Although in her daily journaling she likes to philosophize about how NOTHING is weird, actually, right now it just is. It just is!!! Trying to look unbothered and sexy as her adrenaline spikes, she breathes out through her nose and smiles at him.

The second they're in the closet, though, she flattens her back against the wall.

Sal isn't sure why he's doing this, aside from his friends being here. It'd seemed pretty funny when he was watching this from the outside, and he's in a chill enough mood tonight that he isn't bothered by the possibility of getting locked in with any gender. (He might be trying to prove a point to himself, but swiftly terminates that line of thought before it leads to any realizations.) Anyway, it's just a game, right?

He rapidly regrets his impulse decision the moment Eden's bottle lands on him. Eden's cute as hell, but bro code dictates that Sal not kiss a girl his best friend has a crush on. He should turn her down, except he doesn't know how to do that without seeming like a jerk, and now Eden's already getting up, and Beulah's at the closet door, and um, shit, okay, they're doing this.

"Hey," Sal says, as several seconds of awkward silence ticks by. "Rye thinks you're pretty cool."

Eden blinks.

"Really?" She can feel, for the second time tonight, a little self-conscious warmth enter her face. Still, this is a relief. Invoking Rye means Sal definitely won't be into anything more than this. Probably. So maybe she won't have to say anything at all about the you-could-kill-me stuff.

"It's chill. He's fun to hang out with." Eden swipes at the floor with the toe of her sneaker, shrugging. "I think he likes Minty, though."

"Oh yeah," Sal says with a laugh. "That fuckin' guy. He's got the personality of a space alien, but he can rock up anywhere and have girls and boys falling for him within days."

This is probably not good bro code. Oops. Sal doesn't think he's imagining something weird and nervous about Eden, and if he wonders she likes Rye too. Like, she brought up Minty. She noticed them flirting. The hell is going on with Rye and Eden, then? "I mean. I dunno if it's that serious."

Eden laughs too. It does check out, from getting to know Rye so far. He's easy to like. Also, she would probably laugh at anything right now.

She feels even drunker trying to look at Sal's face like a normal person, so she pretends to study her nails for imperfection even though she can't see them either. Nothing is weird.

"Probably not," she agrees. There's a pause, which thankfully distant music and chatter fills.

"Um, so how are you?"

Sal crosses his arms, leaning back against the opposite wall from Eden. Playing 7 Minutes in Heaven as grown-ass adults is an awkward as fuck situation, but he's not in any hurry to make out. (He doesn't yet realize they're about to spent way more than seven minutes in here.)

"Okay," he says. Another pause, as he thinks about it. "Kinda weird. Kinda fun. Been hanging out with Noah from Explorer Division. He grabbed my hand and dragged me to the bar. Wanted me to mute his powers so he could get drunk."

"So did you have to hold his hand a long time then?" Eden teases, raising her eyebrows. "Are you best friends now?"

Sal laughs. "Yeah, I guess. He's not the worst fuckin' guy to hold hands with for a long time, if you gotta do it." Did that sound gay? Shit, whatever. "What about you? How are you doing?"
