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!

I like to have some surprises.

[He has, after all, been going to the same kinds of parties as Zatanna for most of his life, too.]

[She pauses in the conversation just long enough to allow him to spin her once around, reaching onto her toes and making it all the way around without once losing her balance or step.]

Why do I have the feeling that's supposed to be my line?
mrsarcastic003: (No Mask Smiling)

[personal profile] mrsarcastic003 2013-09-01 12:52 am (UTC)(link)
[He laughs.]

I think magicians are supposed to be surprising, yes. I'm probably not supposed to have nearly as many, so I cherish the ones I get.
backwordscompatible: (chillin')

How've I been doing so far?

[With the surprises. And maybe a little of the dancing.]
mrsarcastic003: (Hair Ruffle)

[personal profile] mrsarcastic003 2013-09-01 01:29 am (UTC)(link)
I'm sure you still have plenty of surprises.

[Please--like she needs to be told she's a good dancer.]
backwordscompatible: (Confidence)

[Hey, a little verbal vindication never hurt anyone.]

Is that your way of telling me the ones I already have aren't good enough?
mrsarcastic003: (Excuse me?)

[personal profile] mrsarcastic003 2013-09-01 01:52 am (UTC)(link)
I would never say anything like that. In the first place, because it's just not true, and in the second--I'm pretty sure you could hex me into the next century if I implied it was.

You're pretty good at this, by the way.
backwordscompatible: (Hi there!)

[personal profile] backwordscompatible 2013-09-01 02:06 am (UTC)(link)
Actually, I promised a few people I'd be on my best behavior when it came to magic. You know...considering.

[The 'considering' was the only reasons she wasn't exaggerating about the 'best behavior' part.]

And thank you. I had a pretty good teacher.
mrsarcastic003: (No Mask Thoughtful)

[personal profile] mrsarcastic003 2013-09-01 02:22 am (UTC)(link)
[He nods a little. It's probably a good idea that she is on her best behavior, but that's no reason not to be on his.]

Oh?
backwordscompatible: (serene)

[personal profile] backwordscompatible 2013-09-01 02:25 am (UTC)(link)
[Hey, she said she was on her best behavior with her magic. No promises on anything else.]

...my dad.
mrsarcastic003: (Excuse me?)

[personal profile] mrsarcastic003 2013-09-01 06:57 pm (UTC)(link)
[Well, she could probably still prank him into the next century, too, without ever using magic.]

[He nods a little, giving her a tiny smile. He'd thought something like that, and it was pretty obvious that it was a sensitive subject.]

He was a good teacher.
backwordscompatible: (job well done)

[personal profile] backwordscompatible 2013-09-01 10:01 pm (UTC)(link)
[Well...yeah.]

He was.

I swear, one of the few times I'd see him smile so openly was either onstage, or at those parties. You wouldn't think, but he loved whenever we got to go to them together, considering how busy he usually was the rest of the time.
mrsarcastic003: (No Mask Smiling)

[personal profile] mrsarcastic003 2013-09-02 11:19 am (UTC)(link)
[He smiled.]

That sounds pretty great, actually.
