Nepeta: Throw a party.

[rogueofheart]

Who: Nepeta, Vriska, Vriska's friends, and ANYONE that wants to drop in!
What: PIRATE PARAVERSARY PARTY
When: Backdated to February 23rd
Where: The Pool Room
Rating: P for Pirates!


Anyone visiting the pool today will notice that the entire room has been transformed into a swashbuckling adventure-themed room. A crudely painted banner hangs above the door that reads "HAPPY PURRAVERSARY FRISKA" in brightly colored paints.

In the very center of the pool is a large inflatable pirate ship. The flags at the very top of it just barely brush against the high ceilings of the room as it gently bobs in the water, inviting anyone to climb aboard (carefully). It's definitely the centerpiece of the party.

Along one wall is a long stretch of tables. Atop them are treasure chests filled with ice and many assorted drinks. The "booty" is spread out on the table in the form of baked snacks and treats, as well as some food that may or may not be specifically for troll consumption.

Also spread out throughout the room are an array of inflatable swords. If the party gets rowdy, no one should be left unarmed!

The decorations all around the room also reflect the piratey theme, as well as the attire worn by those that helped throw the party. Nepeta especially has dressed for the occasion, even topping off her ensemble with an eye patch and bandanna. It's lifted up for the moment as she makes sure that every last detail is in place. Not a single piece of gold foil chocolate should be out of place for this shindig.

Any and all of Vriska's friends are more than welcome to join in the celebration. Of course, anyone at all is welcome to stumble upon the scene on their own.



(OOC: OPEN PARTY LOG!! There are no sections, so you're free to make your own if you'd like. TAG AROUND, THREAD-JACK, GET DOWN WITH YOUR BAD SELF. These kids are turning being stuck in the castle into a reason to party hard. Feel free to say you received an invite if you know Vriska, or you're welcome to just stumble upon the party and join in the fun. Woo!)

[Sigh.] FINE.

[goingrogue]

Trust me, you'll love it! [ Turning back to the table, Roxy ladles both Vriska and herself a bit of punch into a plastic cup. ] Bottoms up!

[samson]

[Were they supposed to bring gifts? Is that a thing you do during a Paradisa Anniversary? ("Paraversary" sounds stupid, Brock had decided on his way over.) Mysteries abound.

He got her a gift anyway, is what I am saying.

Look, there's Vriska. Brock is not at all dressed like a pirate, but the gift he's holding out to her is wrapped in paper with skulls on it. That's cool, right? Yeah.]

Hey.

[wagers]

[THAT IS SO COOL, NOT!DAD!! She's practically flying his way, partly on excitement and partly to match his height. She's grinning wide, trying not to ogle the present too much.]

Hey! Nice to see you!! Really!

[samson]

[VRISKA DON'T BE FAKE, YOU JUST WANT THIS PRESENT no it's fine, he's cool with it.]

If I knew you were into pirates this much, I would have gotten you a different thing.

[The part is now up one (1) rabbit. Who may or may not be invisible depending on how you feel about believing in his existence. He'd just been wandering the castle, and the noise had brought him to the pool room.

He avoids the big inflatable ship (inflatable things and bunny claws do not mix) but he still meanders around the rest of the place. He pokes at an inflatable sword.

Heh. Kids]

[wagers]

[She's taking a drink, emptying out the entire cup before commenting on its taste.]

That's... different.

[wagers]

Well, aren't you a regular troll Martha Stewart? Not bad!

[wagers]

Oh my god! It's not that big of a deal! [And she's rubbing her arm, seething for a second before looking around.] How much of this did you even do?

[wagers]

[To this, Vriska is simply moving toward said sword rack, and-- whoops, didn't see you there, bro-- grabbing a SORD top go bean Nepeta over the head with. There may be a little wobble in her step on account of teh punch, but...]

[wagers]

[Hey, she hasn't seen him in a while! AND THE WRAPPING PAPER IS COOL.]

Yeah! They're pretty much my thing! [Secretly thinks Molotov is the coolest because of her eyepatch and how it's legit.] I am all about the pirates and every aspect of their adventurous ways!

The idol approacheth!

[therealrisette]

[And Rise just happened to pick this day of all days to visit the pool. She noticed something was going on from a distance, but had no idea what until she got inside the room.

... "Purraversary"? And who's Friska?

Rise definitely doesn't know any of these people, though she at least knows about trolls so she's not surprised to see them around. Hopefully they don't mind her dropping by. And maybe one of them will explain what's going on. A party could be fun if they don't mind her joining in!

... Though, she feels a bit awkward standing in the middle of what looks like a themed party just wearing her swimsuit...]

[thatrabbitsdynamite]

[Bunny goes to steady her, before realising that...oh]

...Aren't you a little young for that?

[He doesn't care if you can hear him or not why are you drunk child :|]

[cyan_maid]

Trolls have a Martha Stewart?

[MS is probably BC's dreaded homemaking enemy. They fight in mechs with explosions and passive-aggressive table-setting competitions.]

[adorbs]

[HEY VRISKA HEY VRISKA HEY VRISKA... Nanako is wearing a pirate hat because yes themed parties are the best. And she's waaaaaving at you]

Hi Vriska.

[samson]

[And if Brock is married to Molotov, that makes him cool by proxy, right??? That's how that works!

He laughs a little, shaking his head.] Well, maybe this'll help you, I don't know, cut some lines or swashbuckle or something.

[Inside the box is a little knife with a spiderweb carved into the handle... because if there's anything teenage girls want, it's knives, right?]

[shenunigans]

[Since their conversation over the journals, Dave has been searching for the giant rabbit with thinly vieled but genuine interest. Looking for the Easter Bunny really doesn't fall under the cool regime, but being bros with him seems to. At least Dave thinks it should. He's been through way too many weird things to deny the Easter Bunny, he's pretty sure he'd believe in Santa at this point.

He's being a bit of a wallflower at the party wondering why he came, but it doesn't take him long to notice the bunny meandering around. He approaches carefully, as if not wanting to startle him. He doesn't know how giant bunnies handle surprise greetings.

Finally, he raises a single hand at him. He's for irony's sake he put a skull on one half of his shades. So he's..not very piratey.]

Sup. Figures you'd be hanging out at children's parties. Is it creepy if it's a rabbit?

[shenunigans]

[Dave knows literally nothing about Vriska that hasn't been spoonfed to him from Terezi. Needless to say, his opinion of her isn't high. He isn't easily impressed anyway, particularly when it involves trolls. But they're here and he's here and he should spend less time in his room.

That, and. He has somewhat ulterior motives. He's begun to notice John and Vriska's relationship, but he hasn't been told directly about it so can it really be true? Maybe Vriska will spill the beans.

For irony's sake, he has a skull sticker on one half of his shades. Like an eyepatch. Isn't he great? He slinks up to her, not looking very comfortable about being here.]

They don't make greeting cards for this shit, so I got nothing for you, cap'n.

[thatrabbitsdynamite]

[Bunny would happily introduce Dave to Santa, should North ever deign to arrived in the castle. Just to round up his Weirdass Stuff adventure.

He turns at the sound of Dave's voice, giving a small raise of his paw in greeting, recognising his voice]

Honestly? I just followed the racket. I didn't even know there was a party.

But generally I'm allowed to do these thigns without it being creepy anyway.

[shenunigans]

[Dave would probably flip his shit if he got to meet Santa. On the inside, anyway. He doesn't want to look uncool in front of the big guy.]

Ha. Well it wouldn't be a troll party if it wasn't loud and obnoxious. [He shrugs and looks around.] Sweet. I guess that's the plus side of being a giant rabbit, huh? But I'm gonna bet there's a lot of upsides to that.

[thatrabbitsdynamite]

[Of course not. Then North would ruin it by being the happy screwball he is and probably twirl Dave around in an unmanly fashion, or somesuch. Not one for respecting personal space boundaries, is North]

I see, they're well known for their parties then? These trolls?

[He chuckles a little] One or two.

[wagers]

Kind of? I've only heard vague things about her, but not much!

[cyan_maid]

What other sorts of home-maker icons do trolls have? Do you know?

[wagers]

[He's totally cool, even on his own! ESPECIALLY AFTER THIS GIFT!]

Whoa! I can't wait to use this! Thank you so much! I am being totally legit here, I will totally do all those things! All of them.

[wagers]

[She sees you there, girl! She likes that hat of yours!!]

Nanako! Aren't you a sight for eight sore eyes?
