Raffle: Come wearing a festive sweater and you will automatically be entered into a raffle to win a 65 inch TV.

Look forward to: A live DJ, live music, an appearance by Santa, gift bags with deluxe swag, and the company of old and new friends!

 

(OTA! Happy holidays! If you know Fin, Willy, Phouka, or Winter, feel free to assume they gave you an invite. If not, you can say your pup got an invite through a friend of a friend, someone who knows someone, ect. It IS invite over (no gate crashing pups please, Fin's a giver and would want everyone to feel included), but the pups hosting the party are pretty active and I believe they know almost everyone in the game. And the people they don't know surely know people who do. Even if you only met them once, you got an invite somehow! This gathering post is open all week, and beyond!)

The man took his meaning. The man also took that a very extensive monograph could be written about this young man's shattered psyche. Hannibal looked back into the hard gaze with a very mild gaze of his own. An amused smile spread on his lips. "I'm sure."

[prince_of_nymphs]

"I think I'm due some fortune, don't you?" Fin asked with a warm smile. "It really has been life changing though. I feel like someone has opened a door inside me. I'm making new friends, taking on new lovers... And my art, Hannibal. My words come out so easily lately. I fill pages without pause, to the point where I may have a new production on stage by the summer."

[show_me_something]

"That's true, and often overlooked by people, unfortunately." Although movement and posture could only accomplish so much. Making some of the jumpers she'd seen tonight stylish would require a miracle.

"Although there are some more outlandish looks that could be an interesting challenge." Head tilting, Victoria lowered her voice as though sharing a confidence, when it was really nothing of the sort. "Pink hair could be very flattering with my colouring, I've decided."

[jageskro]

Jag chuckled. "Sounds cool, though. I'll try and stop by, one of those Mondays."

[anamusebouche]

"I'm sure you carefully weighed the decision," Hannibal replied. "And, of course, I wish you all the fortune in the world - and I would still have you for dinner. Raw meat can be quite delicious."

[anamusebouche]

"I would have to see that to believe it," Hannibal retorted. "But if anyone can, I'm sure it's you."

[hardertohide]

"Enjoying your evening?" Dutch asked him with a smile.

[prince_of_nymphs]

Fin hadn't thought it out at all, and a small voice in his head was constantly warning him that the price for such happiness would catch up with him eventually.

"I'd love that. Will would too I think. He hates watching me eat meat, especially when it's raw."

[sunsongs]

"Cool. It's usually a good time." Not that Coby was biased or anything. "Reminds me of a couple of places I played back home. What's that song... Everybody sings and drinks and laughs and gets high," he sung, mostly to himself.

[show_me_something]

"Not with this outfit, obviously," Victoria said, gesturing toward her clothes. "But with my usual neutrals, particularly in monochrome. Oh, I doubt I'll ever do it, but it's interesting to consider."

[jadedjade]

Em was shy. It was adorable - and very much the opposite of Dutch. Who was also adorable, but in a very different way. "Immensely. Sparks fly. Though probably that's static electricity from my jumper."

[jageskro]

Jag chuckled. "That sounds like a good time."

[offthebeatenpath]

Em grinned at the 'Ho Ho Ho', and what Sabine probably would've said about the word play. "Some people just have an energy about them," she said, her own brand of quiet humor.

[sunsongs]

"It's my kind of place," Coby agreed. There wasn't much more he wanted out of life. Not that he could have in public anyway. "No amazing and free buffet, though."

[hardertohide]

"And the jumpers don't hurt," Dutch grinned, for all that hers was knotted around her waist by now.

[jageskro]

"It would be less amazing if it was more common, yeah?" Jag pointed out with a half smile, and flicked his cigarette butt into an ashtray.

[sunsongs]

"True." Coby took the last drag from his cigarette, then his butt followed Jag's. "I'm thinking I should check out the desserts, and see where my friend's gotten off to." Anael was better than any dessert, but Coby could imagine creative ways of enjoying them both at the same time.

[jageskro]

"And I'll try and track down Fin, if he's not too busy," Jag stated with a small smile. "I might see you at Scandals, then."

[harrowgate]

Amusement in the face of Felix's harder emotions only drove those needles in deeper beneath his skin. Hannibal couldn't know that questions of control peeled back the layers to who Felix was essentially, that his soul came perilously close to bared when he surrendered. And there was Hannibal, smiling. Felix had the wild urge to bare his teeth and snarl.

He glanced over Hannibal's well-pressed suit, his perfectly-knotted tie, and knew that buttoned-up exterior couldn't be all that there was to him. "Don't we all enjoy a firm hand now and again?" Felix inquired, his smile feigning sweetness while his eyes were bright and blazing.

[anamusebouche]

Hannibal did know that he was touching a very sensitive nerve. It was his purpose. As Felix was playing the part of oversexed youngster, Hannibal could very easily play the part of a middle-aged man mildly amused at such oversexed talk. "We all have our reasons for enjoying what we enjoy."

[jadedjade]

"Best idea of the evening, these things," Jade replied cheerfully, tugging at his own jumper. "By the end of the night people are aching to tear them off themselves, each other. I'm waiting for that show, certainly." His eyes went from Dutch to Em as he spoke and ended on Em with an amused wink.

[offthebeatenpath]

"Don't hurt?" Em repeated, grinning too. "Some of the sweaters people are wearing tonight are painful to look at." Teasing Dutch was easier than knowing how to respond to Jade, other than the hint of blush she couldn't control anyway. And she hoped it it was clear she didn't mean Dutch or Jade's sweaters, how she phrased it.

[hardertohide]

"I don't know, I'm enjoying them," Dutch replied, grinning at Em. "All right. What's the worst you've spotted? Most painful? Make it a good one." As in a terrible one, obviously.

[jadedjade]

"Hmmm," Jade thought on it. "It's a tie, I think, between the one with the actual Christmas lights and the one with the Christmas balls hanging from it." He searched the crowd to find them and pointed at the one that had wool balls hanging all over his jumper. "But that one has missed a great opportunity for a pun by not hanging two of those on his crotch. So that detracts some points. What about you?" He asked Em.

[anamusebouche]

"And a bold move if you do," Hannibal replied. "Not one I would be brave enough to undertake."
