Should auld acquaintance be forgot

Who: Anyone!
When: 5 pm to...when everyone goes back in time at midnight.
Where: Alice's shop in Sector 3
Summary: New Year's Eve paaaaartay
Warnings: Make your own


[Alice's boutique, normally decorated in floral blacks and whites (prospective bridal clients like florals, usually), has been entirely transformed for the night. Thanks in no small part to Kurt's genius, the entire place decorated in beautiful blacks and golds. The place looks more like a high end night club than anything else. The jet black chandelier is hung with gold chains connected to the walls at various places, creating a shining web above the dance floor.

The handful of small dress racks there are have been emptied, and the few pieces of furniture there are have been pushed (artfully) to the walls. In their place are a few tall tables for people to congregate and converse around. The dance floor takes up most of the room, though, and a DJ is tucked in the corner ready to take requests.

Upstairs in the loft there's an extensive buffet, with everything from sushi to quiche, and a full bar up against the wall. And, because Alice is a good Sanguinarian, there's also a cooler under the bar specifically for guests who don't drink...wine. There are also a few sit-down tables if you want to actually sit down to stuff your face.

As for the hostess herself, she'll be fluttering around the most of the night, making sure everything is absolutely perfect. She's preoccupied, but she's still free to talk your ear off if anyone were to pull her aside.]

Alice has a remarkable skill for making everyone about her feel as comfortable as they possible can.

She really does. She's also good at making her enthusiasm contagious. It's great for wedding planning.

[Layla's the secretary, but she also offers the side service of hypnotizing people into not trying to haggle too much. It bugs her when Alice's customers try to take advantage of the fact that the shop is owned and run by a Newcomer.]

She is indeed infectious. [He chuckles, quiet but proud.]

Have you been here long?

Just since September. I was so lucky that Alice was hiring when she was...because oh wow some of the jobs available to Newcomers are pretty awful.

[Perusing the wanted ads had been...special.]

Oh yes, I can believe that. Settling in somewhere new, on your own, no less, if hardly the easiest of tasks. [He knows from experience.]

The best job in the want ads was babysitting psychic twin toddlers. They hardly needed any sleep. Their parents put out the ad because they needed someone to watch the kids while they slept.

[They were able to telepathically communicate with each other, were both telekinetic, and resistant to hypnosis.]

It paid the rent, but I was so glad to be done with that job.
