[Christmas Party Log] || [I wish you a Merry Christmas~] || [Open]

[doc_brown]

Characters: Everyone ever.
Setting: Floor 38- On Christmas Eve and Christmas.
Format: Action or prose, whichever format you prefer.
Summary: CHRISTMAS PARTY! Now that the Jason!Flu is finally over, all the characters can celebrate Christmas in peace (nearly?) and eat some acceptable food that was cooked by the volunteers. The 38th floor is, as usual, the floor where the party happens and has been entirely decorated for Christmas. The Christmas Party will be open for Christmas Eve and the entirety of Christmas. For characters who wouldn't check this floor, the party has been advertised on the network.

As is usual with these party logs, it's free game! Feel free to post a mingle thread for your character as they spend time in the party or an activity (singing, dancing? playing game? gift giving? anything). Add to that, you're free to start as many threads as you want, be they open or closed! Please put in the header your character's name or the activity's name. If a prompt is closed, then please make sure to write it in the header too!

Warning: Fun times?


The lounge on the 38th floor has been entirely decorated with ribbons, tinsels, Christmas balls and many other things- All hand-made of course. The first thing that can probably be noticed upon entering is the majestic Christmas Tree sitting near the entrance, decorated as well and with wrapped boxes at its feet. There are a lot of empty spaces in the room for people to dance if so they wish as well as empty tables to organize games or sit down, in short everything needed to run an activity. Oh, and there is mistletoe hung at the floor's entrances. Nothing bad really.

Most important there is a lot of food in here, placed on a couple tables. Most of that food comes from the tower's restaurant-- Someone must have done a lot of work for the tower these last days. At least here and now you don't have to risk a limb to get some quality food. Aside from the restaurant food there are also cakes, yule logs as well as many cooked meats and fruits.

Last but not least, this floor isn't as cold here as the rest of the tower. There are a total of what appears to be four fireplaces (hand-made as all the other decorations) in the room, one against each of the walls with fires lit within them. Of course these are not exactly normal fires and a lot of resources and energy has been spent to make them so they will last for the entirety of the party- After this they will be unusable, but at least until then they will keep the room at a normal temperature.

Haldir

[marchwarden]

[ The only reason Haldir would ever voluntarily go to a party is if there's a reason for him being there. This reason being Legolas who seemed so against the idea of going anywhere near people since his little "accident" a few days ago.

While the march warden honestly thought Legolas looked rather decent with his hair a tad shorter than usual, the silly prince was incline to disagree. Thus why Haldir decided to drag Legolas out to this fancy little party in hopes of amending Legolas' wounded pride. He wanted to prove once and for all that no one could ever think of the younger elf as "homely".

Yet, because of Haldir's noble deed, he's now stuck here dressed in pale green silk robes holding a glass of whatever punch or wine they have this evening. Haldir never does well at parties, never. He hates parties and he hates attending parties, but for Legolas' sake he'll make due and prove to the elf that his chopped locks aren't hideous. ]

[bow_of_the_galadhrim]

[Walking alongside Haldir, silvery hood pulled over his head, the prince looked around the party with a faint smile. It was rather festive even if the holiday, traditions and decor were completely unfamiliar to him. Although, it almost reminded him of the celebrations in Mirkwood and made him feel a bit homesick for a moment if he hadn't taken a glance at Haldir.

He was terribly underdressed in comparison to the march warden, a fact which secretly pleased him though he made no effort to hide his smirk. Hoping their connection strong enough, Legolas thought:

Thiog vae.]

[marchwarden]

[ A hint of surprise crossed his face once he heard Legolas' voice within his mind. Telepathy isn't a rarity amongst their kind, but Haldir didn't once think it was possible for Legolas and him to share such a strong bond to achieve it. Then again, as the last few days have proved the two of them have grown rather close.

Giving the prince a small smile, Haldir approached. ]

Le fael.

[ He chuckled lightly as he reached to wrap Legolas' hand within his own. ]

[bow_of_the_galadhrim]

[He gladly held onto Haldir's hand, giving it a soft squeeze in appreciation for having him there with him. Perhaps, so long as Haldir was with him, this evening wouldn't be too intolerable.

Leaning close to Haldir, he whispered softly:]

Not generous enough, I would think. Tonight you look as royalty.

[marchwarden]

[ Haldir's smile grew even more once he heard the following compliment. Was it truly so rare for him to dress in such garbs? Perhaps he should make it a habit to dress up more often. It would seem that Legolas greatly enjoys this more so than he does. ]

Come now, we both know I hardly look as handsome as you.

[ He whispered in return. ]

I hope this party does wonders to lift your spirits.

[bow_of_the_galadhrim]

[Oh yes, he's most certainly enjoying it. Perhaps he'd find someone later that could craft more clothes of such quality for Haldir. And leave them as a gift, anonymously of course.]

I'm inclined to disagree.

[Oh ho, someone's still a bit sore about his hair but he grins to his companion and gives his hands another squeeze. Such a shame he hadn't dug his circlet from his trunk before they came. He'd insist on Haldir wearing it.]

You've already drawn me from my room. It's progress.

[marchwarden]

[ He's honestly a tad skeptical about receiving such lavish gifts, but it wouldn't take him long to figure out who the sender was. ]

Fair enough, but I certainly hope to have you realize that the state of your hair matters very little here.

[ The march warden stated as he slipped his hand free from Legolas' and pushed back that awful hood. ]

Be proud.

[ A beautiful smile graced his lips as he wrapped his arms tight around Legolas. ]

Your beauty still outshines the very stars.

[notagiraffe]

[Taiki had been mostly staying in his room the last few weeks, sad that Gyousou had disappeared again. Only leaving to try and help people by healing or keeping them warm, it was no warmer now but when Taiki had heard the mention of a party he had gone along, mostly because being with other people made things a little warmer, if a lot more scarier.

For the most part he stuck to the outskirts, but when he saw his roommate he waved shyly and went over.]

[marchwarden]

[ The march warden's gaze widened once he saw Taiki. It's been some time since he last seen his little friend, especially since Haldir has taken more interests elsewhere beyond their room. Welcoming him over, Haldir kneels down to properly hug the little kirin. ]

Why hello, little one.

[notagiraffe]

Taiki returned the hug tightly he had missed Haldir while he hadn't been in the room. "Hello Haldir. How have you been?"

[marchwarden]

I have been well, Taiki.

[ Halidr replied that with a bright smile. All has been too well to be honest. ]

I take it you are not alone here in this party.

[ He hoped to see Lord Gyousou again. ]

[notagiraffe]

[Taiki smiles back, because he is glad that Haldir is happy, the elf is so kind he deserves all the happiness he gets.

But his smile soon faded and he blinked.] Sorry... Lord Gyousou is gone again... [His voice wavered] Sanshi and Gohran are here though... [He hadn't summoned them yet, in case he scared people but they were still there.]

[marchwarden]

[ Shock settled within Haldir's gaze once he heard the news. He had hoped for Taiki's sake and no other that Gyousou's return here would've been a long one. While it was somewhat selfish of him to want to condemn the man to such a fate, the kirin always seemed his happiest around Gyousou. This was why Haldir had hoped that he wouldn't vanish anytime soon. ]

Forgive me, I didn't know. I had just assumed he would be by your side.

[ He frowned somewhat. ]

hey you

[red_tea]

[ Have a silver haired young woman approaching him, by the punch bowl. There are two empty glasses in her hand, and she holds them as if they are the most delicate form of knives. But before she pours herself anything, she will turn to ask him-- ] Ah, excuse me but... do you know if this is alcoholic?

Hihihi~

[marchwarden]

[ Lost within his own thoughts as he sipped on the punch,(someone already spiked it?) Haldir suddenly now found himself staring at a young woman asking for his expertise. The elf wasn't quite certain as of what this fruit punch has been spiked with, but it certainly isn't the high caliber of liquor he's used to. It's a little harsh and bitter. ]

It would seem so. [ He grumbled in slight annoyance. ] I would advise otherwise if you wish for a decent beverage.

Re: Hihihi~

[red_tea]

[ Strong and bitter is good, for what she'll need it for. So she pours herself a cup before giving it a small smell for quality. ] Perhaps if the alcohol can be distilled from the beverage, I think it would be useful to disinfect wounds. I shall have to find a good chemist for that, however.

[marchwarden]

[ The elf's gaze narrowed once the woman mentioned using this brew for wounds. ]

That would be more trouble than it's worth, I'm afraid.

[red_tea]

You've never heard of rubbing alcohol...?

[marchwarden]

[ Honestly, who would wish to rub alcohol upon their skin? That sounds rather unpleasant. ]

I cannot say that I do, but Elven medicine is quite different from that of your kind.

[lightofhumanity]

[It had been quite awhile since chaos had seen the elf, but he wasn't one for passing up greeting friends, even during this depressing holiday. So, Haldir might see chaos near the beverages table. He's holding a glass of what looks to be wine and looking a little more melancholy than usual. He does smile though.]

Good evening. It is nice to see you again. Are you feeling better?

[marchwarden]

[ A hint of surprise settled in his gaze as he eyed the boy. ]

Good evening, young one. [ He still believed himself to be centuries older than the lad. ] Your concern is quite flattering, but as you can see I'm quite well.

[ He eyes the youth for a moment, as if trying to pinpoint why chaos seemed so...despondent. ]

Whatever is the matter?

[lightofhumanity]

[chaos would have lightly chuckled, but he held it back.]

I am not a young one. My name is..chaos. However, I am glad to hear that you are feeling better. Pardon me for a moment..

[chaos will quickly touch Haldir on the shoulder and warm him up with his powers before quickly moving his hand away. Elves seemed to be rather touchy, so he wanted to get that quickly done so he didn't offend the man. However, upon hearing that question, he'll sigh in his head.]

..Nothing is wrong. I am quite alright. Why do you ask?

[marchwarden]

[ Haldir just stared at chaos for a moment.

Just who was this child? The elf was rather grateful for chaos' assistance several days prior, but Haldir was unused to being fussed over like this. He even has a tendency to shoo Legolas away whenever the prince started to fret about his safety. There's nothing that Haldir dislikes more than worrying others. ]

Hm? [ He eyed the boy with more uncertainty after that friendly little pat. ] Are you truly well?

[ In truth, Haldir should be asking himself this since suddenly he felt a tad warm now. ]

I only ask out of concern for you seem less amiable than I remember.

[lightofhumanity]

[In his head, chaos sighed as he took a sip of the wine in his hand. Well, at least Haldir hadn't commented about how he was able to warm up people. He just had to dodge this bullet.]

I am..it is just this holiday, that's all. It brings back memories.

[And that is all chaos will say on the subject.]

What about you? Did you have a holiday like this in your universe?

[marchwarden]

[ A hint of curiosity lingered in his gaze. There's obviously something more to the boy's sad smile than he's willing to state, but Haldir won't dare pry. Instead, he'll focus his thoughts upon chaos' question. ]

I cannot claim there's one likened to this celebration, but every year the Elves of Lothlórien celebrate the coming of Winter and the New Moon.
