PARTY TIME!

[deloreandriver]

Characters: Marty and EVERYONE ELSE. Start your own threads, mingle, make CR!
Setting: Floor 38, the big lounge floor just under the dorms, BEST STORM VIEW
Format: Your choice
Summary: STORM WATCHING PARTY! So the power is out and there's tons of thunderstorms. But don't let that get you down, WATCH THE THUNDERSTORMS! Also pancakes and coffee.
Warnings: STORM WATCHING ! Lots of thunder

Marty had enough of the darkness in the tower and the creeping monsters, so when he looked at the mass of pancakes the automatic pancake maker had made, he loaded them up along with the coffee maker, coffee, the syrup, and toted them all the way up to Floor 38.

There was no way he was going to let those massive stacks of pancakes go to waste, and this was the closest floor to the dorms that actually had some place to hang out, so he set the pancakes up as a sort of continental breakfast, and sat watching the storm.

What he hadn't expected was the people to start trickling in.

[So he heard there was actual food on this floor instead of those shitty, awful, bleck nutrition bar things. And, considering that the monsters probably didn't enjoy being set on fire, Tatsuya made it to the 38th floor pretty easily, flinging one last Agidyne behind him before stumbling down the stairs to where everyone was gathering and...

Ohhh, coffee too? Nice.]

[evokingfool]

[There's a familiar look guy enjoying his coffee. It's no Pheromone Coffee, but it's still good.

He looks around and notice Tatsuya. Oh, hi.]

[vvvroom]

[He nods at Minato while getting some coffee of his own.

Wassup wassup fellow silent protag?]

[evokingfool]

Hey.

[He would wave, but he have his drink in one hand and his sword in the other. So, have a nod.

Nothing up, fellow silent protag. What about you?]

[vvvroom]

[Nm nm, just getting actual food, nbd.]

Yo. Is the power out all over, you think? [Or just, like, the dorms or what?]

[evokingfool]

I haven't check all the floors, but it's a fair assumption. [What, he's not crazy enough to explore the entire tower in this darkness.]

[vvvroom]

[Don't blame him, honestly.]

...Great. [Oh well, at least people could hang out here and relax for a little while.]

So, what's up?

[ocariness]

[ Link is eyeing the coffee with so much suspicion and cleaning Monster Gunk off their sword.

Sup, Tatsuya? ]

... I admit this is nice of them, but we should not leave the stairs unguarded.

[ Just a feeling. It's why Link is rather close to any areas of this floor Monsters could feasibly come to. ]

[vvvroom]

[He nods a bit absentmindedly, pouring out some of the coffee for himself with nary a thought and taking a

...long

...swig

until the cup is completely drained. Didn't...even bother to put anything in it. He then takes a plate and starts putting a ridiculous amount of pancakes on it.]

Yeah. Least we can do something while the power's out.

[There's a long, thin sword that's presumably his that's set against the table while he helps himself to actual food.]

[ocariness]

[ So.

This is Link.

See Link staaaaaaaaaaare as you do that, expecting you to start bouncing off the walls.

Honestly, they are, they know it's Coffee now and Tetra had some and SHE was like that... ]

[vvvroom]

[Behold as it proceeds to...not...happen.

In fact, as the minutes pass, it looks like it has a subtler, opposite effect. His hands settle, he calms down a bit, he starts to actually take in his surroundings...including Link...staring at him???]

...What?

[ocariness]

[ Okay Link is REALLY CONFUSED? ]

... You are still able to form normal sentences.

[ Hm. ]

[vvvroom]

...Yes?

[Dude it's just coffee.]

[butterflyguardian]

*Oh. Hello Tatsuya. Fancy seeing you here.*

It's good to see you are well.

[vvvroom]

[Wow hey that look he just gave Philemon.

That...that was a pretty cold look.

At least he's not being violent...again.]

[butterflyguardian]

*...Oh dear. Well. Tatsuya really was upset...*

...I feel that I should apologize.

*that is...usually what humans do when one has offended. Yes. This is the best course of action.*

[vvvroom]

[...Well, there's a bit of a shock. Not that he didn't know that Philemon felt bad about everything, it's just...weird to hear that from him.]

...Kinda late for that.

[butterflyguardian]

Nothing is ever too late, Tatsuya.

[vvvroom]

...Right.

[Whatever, whatever, just gonna sit here and watch the flashes of lightening.]

[nemophila]

[Pancakes were definitely a plus too. Jun had a cup of coffee of his own and a plate of thank-god-food-that's-not-nutrition-bars, and offered the plate to Tatsuya once he saw him with a smile.]

[vvvroom]

[Ohh, surprise pancakes.]

...Hey. [He manages to smile back and takes the plate, nodding.]

[nemophila]

Hey. You OK...?

[Yes he saw you stumbling down the stairs.]

[vvvroom]

[Nnnnoooo shut up.]

Yeah, it was...interesting getting here, is all.

[Goddamn monsters. Walking around like they own the place.]

[nemophila]

[Nope nope nope.]

It's almost like we haven't even left Sumaru City, isn't it...

[vvvroom]

Ha, you mean with the monsters?

[Ah yes, that sounds like good ol' Sumaru to him.]
