Event | Sinbrilee | Bacchanal

Characters: Any and all!
Date: August 24 - 30th
Location: Sinbrilee
Situation: An ancient festival of an ancient city, all are welcome at the Bacchanal!
Warnings/Rating: Please label threads as appropriate.

Death and destruction cannot curtail the single most important festival celebrated by the denizens of Sinbrilee: The Bacchanal! The ghosts in and about the city have begun to gossip about high fashion and festivities, sending any that inquire to the Amphitheatre -- a grand, circular structure nestled in the west side of the city.

This structure bore the fall of Sinbrilee and the wear of time with dignity, having lost handfuls of archways and one long stretch of wall to crumbling decay. Despite this, it is obvious that the amphitheatre once hosted many a display and every more festivities than the mind can grasp. This was their solace and safety; here is where the people of Sinbrilee came to find the mind's escape from all that threatened them and their great turtle.

Ghosts have been busy throughout the week, clearing paths through debris and hanging great cloth banners of soft blues and greens to disguise the more blatant signs of its decline. Many hundreds of them shimmer and slid through the area, providing for tables upon tables of food, offering drink, and overseeing competition of sport and skill (some even denying death's non-corporeal curse to enter).

Here, well... Here is where the party begins!

[He pulls a face at the word 'love' because TOMMY SHEPHERD DOES NOT HAVE FEELINGS and gives a small shrug, swallowing.] You're the one who said it safe. So you're stuck with me vomiting.

[Tommy frowns, and gives another shrug.]

Seriously, nothing. This place just sucks.

Please don't vomit. I'll use a spell to make you stop vomiting, you don't want to have to deal with that. [He will. Don't doubt him on that one. Puking makes him want to do the same thing.]

It's not nothing. Come on, okay. You didn't know me before I was a Young Avenger, but I... a black eye isn't nothing. What happened?
crotcharrow: (sideglance; you're stupid; umwat)

[personal profile] crotcharrow 2013-09-01 10:32 pm (UTC)(link)
[That actually gets a frown out of Tommy, and he glances over to Billy with a bit of concern. Sure, he figured the guy was dorky and a bit awkward, but knowing someone wailed on him? Kinda sent up hackles he wasn't expected. Who figured he'd be protective of the little idiot. But he shrugs it off as quickly as it comes on.]

Rikki punched me okay. I totally coulda dodged if my powers weren't out. Again. [Cue sulky face.]
witchnotwarlock: (Pouty McPouterson)

[personal profile] witchnotwarlock 2013-09-02 08:25 pm (UTC)(link)
[It's his brother. As soon as he got to know him, he automatically went into the brother category, and on some level Billy did think he was the older of the two, that didn't mean anything.

You didn't hurt his brother. Except now he's pretty confused.]


Why were your powers out? And why did Rikki punch you!?
crotcharrow: (you're getting pretty hot and heavy)

[personal profile] crotcharrow 2013-09-04 10:27 pm (UTC)(link)
[Instead of answering straight away, Tommy goes for another meat skewer, trying not to look too embarrassed that Rikki got the drop on him. (Who was he kidding, if they were the same speed all the time, she'd walk all over him.)]

The ruins in this place. Some of them show you... stuff. Bad stuff. I was trying to get Rikki out, and she thought I was a nightmare, I guess.
witchnotwarlock: (Hello can you see me)

[personal profile] witchnotwarlock 2013-09-09 10:32 pm (UTC)(link)
[From what he knew about Rikki, and had talked to her about, he wasn't that surprised she'd been able to hit him. It was the why that had been more of a question. And the answer wasn't that much better.]

...I guess I was too busy playing archeologist to see any of them. [Stuff. Bad stuff. He hadn't seen anything like that... maybe he just wasn't looking hard enough?] Is she okay, now? Obviously you guys got out, but is she okay? Are you okay? With whatever you saw?
crotcharrow: (sideglance; you're stupid; umwat)

[personal profile] crotcharrow 2013-09-10 09:46 am (UTC)(link)
We'll live.

[SOMEONE ISNT OK but hey, when has he ever spoken to Billy about what actually happened in Juvie. He doesn't intend on starting now.]
witchnotwarlock: (Default)

[personal profile] witchnotwarlock 2013-09-11 07:41 am (UTC)(link)
[Dude. He knows when you're not okay. He knows. That's what brothers do, right, they know each other, and when they're not okay? Because Billy isn't even a twin with his other brothers, and he knows when they're not okay.]

Of course you'll live. Not what I asked, though. Are you okay? You said that she was trying to get away from nightmares... what were you getting away from?
crotcharrow: (glance; not sure if want)

[personal profile] crotcharrow 2013-09-11 11:43 pm (UTC)(link)
[Tommy goes quiet. Eerily quiet for him, and chews on one of the sticks from his meat skewer.]

Didn't y'hear me? Nightmares. It wasn't real.

[He's not really wanting to specify here. Billy does not need to know about juvie. Frankly, nobody does.]

witchnotwarlock: (Taking a seat)

[personal profile] witchnotwarlock 2013-09-14 07:42 pm (UTC)(link)
Nightmares are based on real fears we have, combined with memories, unlike dreams which have a base in whatever we've done during the day.

[His mom's a psychologist, okay. He knows this stuff.]

So it's still kind of real. [You know that if Tommy doesn't tell him what happened, he's going to assume the worst. And Billy Kaplan can imagine the worst of everything.]
crotcharrow: (civvies; why am i drinking starbucks)

[personal profile] crotcharrow 2013-09-21 10:33 pm (UTC)(link)
Since when did you become your mom?

[He snorts, offering Billy a small smile before shrugging.]

Y'don't need to know what I saw. It's not important. But I gotta make it clear that Rikki only got the jump on me 'cause I had no powers, capiche?

[personal profile] witchnotwarlock 2013-09-22 05:23 am (UTC)(link)
When I started to tune her out. I think things she said stuck more when I was trying to ignore them.

[Billy eventually smiles back, albeit a small one.]

Don't worry, I'm not going to go around and tell everyone or anything like that. If you had powers, she wouldn't have been able to. [He's not gonna tell anyone. He won't. Still, he sort of hesitates a moment and then hugs Tommy.]

Seriously, if you need to talk, even not about that, you know you can talk to me, right? I haven't been here as long as you, but I don't mind.
crotcharrow: (&billy; uh excuse me; you stole my face)

[personal profile] crotcharrow 2013-09-22 08:12 am (UTC)(link)
[The hug catches him off guard and he squirms uncomfortably in Billy's grip.]

Yeah, yeah, I know, thanks. Just stop with the hugging-touchy-feely crap, okay?

[Now was not the time or place to be getting emotional. He does have a reputation to uphold, after all. Still, even if Billy might not know it, the gesture is appreciated. He's been needing one of these since he got out of that place.]
witchnotwarlock: (Default)

[personal profile] witchnotwarlock 2013-09-28 10:46 pm (UTC)(link)
[Yeah, yeah, he knows you don't like this kind of thing. But there weren't too many people to hug around here, and you know what? He's allowed to hug his brother. His supposed brother, but Billy had no doubt whatsoever that he really was his brother. And anyone who said otherwise could go fuck off.]

Okay, okay. [He lets go with a smile.] Sorry for touching the sacred personage that is Tommy Shepherd.

[He backs a little but away as he teases.] So what now? Do you tell everyone that you beat the crap out of someone, or do you ignore it and eat all the food?
crotcharrow: (smug; grin; orly)

[personal profile] crotcharrow 2013-09-28 11:01 pm (UTC)(link)
[He relaxes when Billy lets go and makes a point of dusting himself off before going for another skewer.]

Yeah, you better be sorry. Nobody gets all up on this.

[He pops the end of the skewer in his mouth.] I'm thinking for going for 'You should see the other guy' or 'I was being heroic and saving lives and all I got was this lousy shiner'. What d'you think?
witchnotwarlock: (Default)

[personal profile] witchnotwarlock 2013-10-01 03:05 am (UTC)(link)
Except Rikki, apparently. [Says wryly as he grabs a skewer himself. He totally meant the bruise. Not the other thing. Just the bruise.]

The 'you should see the other guy' is outdated and cliche. [He eats a piece slowly, before grinning at Tommy.] Also, everyone knows that if you say that you need to look at the other guy, that means you didn't win.

The other one is kind of stupid, but if it's between the two, I'd go with the second.
