open | happy (earth) new year, everyone!

WHO: Any and all!
WHERE: 2nd residential floor lounge
WHEN: OOCly 12/31; today.
WHAT: Victor's ICly claimed the day as being the 31st, and subsequently celebrating the "New Year" with anyone who comes by! After sending out a post on the network inviting any of the new arrivals via anomalies to attend, people are welcome to come enjoy a probably very random seeming New Years celebration.
WARNINGS: There is food and alcohol here, beware!


The lounges are interesting spaces, and Victor didn't hesitate to roll up his sleeves and rearrange furniture in this section of the middle floor lounge. A cheery wave to anyone wandering through earlier on the 31st (by his calendar, he's quite cheerful in acknowledging how arbitrary that really is) while he goes about arranging things to his satisfaction, before he jets off again to finish preparing his olivie salad.

It's nowhere near fancy, but he's shown up again with a big, borrowed bowl from his work, containing the closest approximation of olivie salad he'd been able to manage working with the supplies he found on board. There's a tablecloth tossed over the table he's appropriated for holding the foodstuffs, along with simple plates, utensils, cups and bubbling wines (three, okay, that's toeing the line of careful financial management). He's even figured out how to get music playing, though it's hard to say if there's any unifying theme to what plays.

Perhaps the most ridiculous part of any of this is how he's constructed a small cone cap for the brown, fuzzy creature that had been delivered to his bunk last week. That it's a shaved ice cone inverted with the words "Happy New Year" written on it amuses him. The unidentified creature simply coos and purrs and wears the cone hat, not moving off the smaller table it's been set on.

"Happy New Year!" he says to just about anyone walking by, tipping his (oh so classy) cup their way with a smile. Welcome to the party. Bring something to contribute to the table? Very welcome to the party!

[ ooc: please tag in with your own top levels and enjoy a relaxed, informal celebration of the new year (per Victor)! ]

[Yuuri deflates with a sigh.]

So, don't expect to see any of the higher ups like the Captain any time soon, basically.
ouzel: (does anyone ever get this right?)

I wouldn't hold my breath for it, that's for sure.

[Since that seems to be a dead end, Yuuri's all too happy to move onto something else.]

It sounds like you have more experience with all of this. [He's confident in a way that makes Yuuri think so, anyway.]

What did you do back in your world?
ouzel: (where's this going to?)

[personal profile] ouzel 2017-01-20 01:20 am (UTC)(link)
Ah. [ The moment of truth, as it were. ]

I was a spy.

A spy? [Whoa, that's kind of...cool? In a way. Yuuri leans in unconsciously, attentive.]

A spy for what? [He blanches suddenly.] Um, you don't have to tell me if you're not allowed to!
ouzel: (who are you to me?)

"A Resistance effort. If you're more curious about it you can ask Jyn." She has fewer qualms about talking about the Resistance, seeing as how she wasn't a part of it.

[personal profile] yokunaru 2017-01-21 10:25 pm (UTC)(link)
You think she'd be willing to talk about it?

[From what he's seen, she's a fair bit quieter than the Captain is.]
ouzel: (for a while)

[personal profile] ouzel 2017-01-22 09:49 pm (UTC)(link)
She has a freedom to be more honest about it all than I do.

[ So, maybe? Maybe not. ]
yokunaru: (147)

[personal profile] yokunaru 2017-01-23 05:41 pm (UTC)(link)
I'll keep that in mind.

[And that's where he'll leave it for now, so he can turn over all this information later.

Yuuri offers Cassian a small smile.]


I'm Yuuri... by the way. I should've introduced myself earlier.
