Saturnalia GP!

[goodfellow]

It was a good night at Saturnalia.

There was some b-list American rapper-slash-DJ who had shown up earlier in the day, and Robin was happy to throw someone on stage. It had gone over well right away, so he'd let him stay on. And now it was well into the evening and things were, as Robin understood the current vernacular to be, turnt.

In fact, at some point he'd thrown open all the windows so that the music blasted onto the street, and instructed the bouncers to let in whoever wanted in. He'd also instructed the bartenders to serve all the beer half price. The resulting crowd and frenzy was really something else.

Phouka lost himself to the music for a long moment. The beat flowed over him and through him and he simply moved in the ways that felt best. It took him a bit too long to notice Winter was only watching him. He stopped and smiled, pulling his hair back and throwing it behind his shoulders.

"I like my trousers like this. I shall keep them this way tonight," he decided as he came to sit by Winter again.

[winter_wisp]

"You could, just... Take them off," Winter suggested helpfully. "You could just take everything off. That would be good too..."

[phouka]

That made him pause and think, tilting his head and blinking a few times.

"I think they would send me home," he said. And then he asked, "How turnt are you?"

[winter_wisp]

"I don't know. Medium? Medium turnt? I don't know how you measure turnt-ness, Phouka," Winter giggled.

[phouka]

"Hmm, I do not know, either," he admitted. "I do think if we get beyond medium turnt to well turnt someone will surely tell us we have gone too far?"

[winter_wisp]

"I don't think it works that way, Phouka," Winter laughed. "I'll keep an eye on you though, if you keep an eye on me."

[phouka]

"An excellent plan!" he cried and clapped his hands once. "We should celebrate how wise you are with new drinks!"

[winter_wisp]

Winter knew this was not a good plan, and certainly not one to celebrate. ...However, he did enjoy seeing Phouka tipsy.

"Okay. I just want water though, you get a drink, and get me a water, and I will catch up in drinks later," the tricky little pixie suggested.

[phouka]

"Of course. Of course," the creature said and turned to go to the bar to get drinks for them. When he came back some time later, unable to take a straight path too and from, he had lost his shirt and carried two glasses and a plastic bottle under his arm. Both pints were half gone as he'd drunk them on the way to keep them from spilling.

"I have returned!" he declared triumphantly.

[winter_wisp]

"With even less clothes and water! Tonight is a good night, Phouka," Winter giggled.

[phouka]

"Tonight is the best night," he agreed, then drained one of the glasses in several swallows. It made his head feel fuzzy and he smiled drunkenly at Winter.

"You are the best of friends," he gushed. "You are my favorite of all pixie. You are my favorite of all anyone."

[winter_wisp]

"...We are more than friends though, right?" Winter asked, not sure why he needed to ask, only that he did. "I mean, we are friends, you are my best friend, and my favourite above all others, but... We are- Um... I mean..."

The pixie looked unsure, then formed the shape of a heart with his hands.

"I love you, Phouka. We are lovers, yes?"

[phouka]

"We are. We are indeed. I love you the most of anyone in the world. Any world," he said. The Phouka put his drink down and awkwardly formed a heart with his hands. "You are the best of all lovers. The only one I want."

[winter_wisp]

Winter beamed at that, practically throwing himself at the Phouka before hugging him tightly.

[phouka]

The Phouka wrapped his arms around Winter's waist and lifted him off the floor so he could spin him round and round. His gleeful laughter could be heard above the music.

"You are my love, Winter Wisp. And I am your Phouka, always."

[winter_wisp]

"You are my love, Phouka!" Winter assured him, letting out a gleeful sound.

[phouka]

The Phouka spun him around and around. When he stopped and set Winter down he stumbled over his own feet and fell down into a sofa hard. It only made him laugh.

"My love, you are still spinning," he grinned.

[winter_wisp]

"You are spinning!" Winter argued, giggling a little then collapsing beside him.

[phouka]

"I am...not. I am sitting," he laughed. With Winter beside him the creature put his arm around him to pull him close. "This is a very good night," he declared.

[winter_wisp]

Winter giggled, bright and cheerful.

"The best," he nodded, leaning in to kiss him again. "All nights with you are good though."

[phouka]

"I think you are right. All nights with me are good," he said, a dopey grin showing a flash of bright, white teeth. And then he laughed at himself for saying something so absurd.

[winter_wisp]

Winter laughed too, bright and chipper.

"Should we go home, Phouka? Or do you want to dance more?" the pixie asked.

[phouka]

"We should drink! And dance! Dance all the way home," he exclaimed brightly. The Phouka found his beer and drained the glass, swallow after swallow making his throat bob. He finished with a dramatic sigh, then belched.

"Dance all the way home!" he said as he got to his feet and caught Winter's hand to pull him up.

[winter_wisp]

"No, Phouka! We can't dance that much! It's too much dancing! We must take a car," Winter laughed, letting Phouka pull him along.

[phouka]

"Then we will take a car. Make your phone bring a car," he said, settling down a little so Winter could send for one, though he remained close and kept squirming to the beat.
