End of the World Party

4 Days Until the Horde

Everyone in the Quad is deep in preparations for the massive horde coming from Danforth when word goes out from Whitney Field Depot: you're all invited to the Lobby tonight for one last(??) big shindig before we all die(??)!

At 7 PM, the theater troupe presents a one-hour episode of Supernatural, which any true fans will soon realize is Tegan's AO3 fanfic and not an actual episode. Brothers Sam and Dean Winchester (Evening O'Leary and Bo Bloodgood) team up with the angel Castiel (Odyssey) to investigate a series of ritualistic murders meant to kickstart the apocalypse. After Sam is captured by Lucifer (Blythe Ferry), Dean and Castiel must work alone together and discover that the murders are the work of John Winchester (Edgar de Leon), now evil and resurrected by demons. Featuring: Sexual tension! Casual blasphemy! Daddy issues!

From there, everyone's invited to return to the Lobby to drink, relax, make new friends and plan for the horde if you absolutely must do that.

Guidelines

⚾ Tonight's Theme: The apocalypse!! Again!!!

⚾ Hot Weapons: Firearms, ammo and explosives must be checked in at the gate and will be returned to you when you leave. Cold weapons (blades, bludgeons, crossbows) are fine to take inside.

⚾ Drinks: One free drink per hour, whether that's mystery punch (moonshine, water and whatever mixture of powdered drink flavors they have on hand, which today is blue-green in color) or non-alcoholic punch. Water is available any time. Other drinks are on the menu but must be traded for.

⚾ Cannabis: No free samples tonight, but it's in stock at the trading post.

⚾ Overnight: Four (4) beds are open in the guest quarters in the sublevel, going to whoever claims them first, and the rest can camp in the outfield. There are enough sleeping bags to accommodate everyone, but only six (6) small tents. Up to you where your character ends up tonight!

Locations

ARRIVALS

Check in if your character attending! Are they in a partying mood or here against their will? Dressed like it's 1999 or just wearing whatever they had on hand? How do they feel about the approaching horde?

THE LOBBY

The bar serves alcohol and water, and a few other options if you've got merit or items to trade. The trading post is open if you need to stock up on essentials. A table is set up with snacks, including a big charcuterie board with bread, cheese, dried fruit and meats, and honey.

THE REC ROOM

Formerly the gift shop, now stocked with books and board games, and tables and chairs. There's also a pool table and a foosball table!

THE OUTFIELD

Step outside for some fresh air or a bit of quiet. The community garden is a nice place for a walk.

✨ THEATER

The stage is a cobbled together collection of wooden pallets in the parking lot, plus portable stairs that seem very rickety whenever an actor jumps on it. What did you think of the show?

MONARCH OF THE APOCALYPSE

If the one drink per hour limit isn't doing for you, you're invited to join the drinking contest. Whoever's still standing at the end gets 3 merits and a tiara!

END OF THE NIGHT

Last call is at 2 AM. Are you headed back to your community, or staying overnight at Whitney?

Comments

THE OUTFIELD: Nat & OPEN

[malting]

"Woah, careful of the grass," Nat chuckles, hand automatically grasping the elbow of her new companion, lest they send them both to the ground or crashing into the garden.

Quiet, starlight contemplation interrupted, Nat's cigarette nearly does get fumbled to the grass. "Are you okay?"

THE OUTFIELD: Nat & Duke

[dukeofrats]

Duke, a little achey and a little tired, had wandered out into the outfield for a bit of stargazing. And, against better judgement, had decided to walk backwards while staring up at the heavens, finding it a little more transporting that way. Also, a little more prone to stumbling. At least Nat's there to catch him from making his evening a whole lot worse.

"Oh shit, yeah, sorry bro." He looks curiously to her, and then to her cigarette. "Didn't mean to crash your quiet time or whatever."

THE OUTFIELD: Nat & Duke

[malting]

Nat shakes her head, now a little steadier that 5'2" of her isn't trying to keep them both upright. "All you interrupted was a smoke break. You want?" She extends it out to him. "Really adds to the ambiance of looking to the stars for answers."

THE OUTFIELD: Nat & Duke

[dukeofrats]

Though the offer is met with a grin, Duke waves off the cigarette with his good arm, though he does obviously have to consider it a moment to spare himself some pain.

"Savin' my lungs for engine exhaust. Definitely agreed that the ambiance out here is good as hell with the smoke wisps, though. Givin' the stars our own little clouds." His voice is a little dreamy as his eyes drift upwards.

"You think about what kinda tattoo you want?"

THE OUTFIELD: Nat & Duke

[malting]

Givin' the stars our own little clouds. Huh. Duke was oddly poetic, charmingly profound. Nat ponders this as she adds another little cloud to the sky of stars.

"Your brother tells me you'd do a great muppet."

THE OUTFIELD: Nat & Duke

[dukeofrats]

Whatever poeticness is in Duke is not in attendance as he turns his gaze back to Nat and says, excitedly, "Holy fuckin' shit you want a muppet? I can totally fuckin' rock a muppet."

Yes, there is a horde of zombies on their way, but muppets are always a balm.

"Who's your favorite?"

THE OUTFIELD: Nat & Duke

[malting]

Nat laughs. Duke's excitement is so at odds from the first time she met him, the night of the cougar hunt. It was nice to see the younger Rattray healthier and twinkling as brightly as the stars ahead.

"The rat actually," Nat grins. "But I'd like to be a total cliche and your brother mentioned you gave him a little buddy. So Beaker."

THE OUTFIELD: Nat & Duke

[dukeofrats]

"Rizzo," Duke supplies readily. It's important, with a last name like Rattray, to know all your fellow rats. Also, muppets are cool. He hums, sways a little on his feet, thoughtful.

"Can do both, you know. If you want double muppets. Could see how it might be a little much, though." For some people, but he doesn't add this, because it sounds judgmental.
