Party Time

[loveandduty]

Who: Everyone who wants to attend.
What: It's a party for all, but the pairing up part is for singles only.
When: Day 19 of Fiddlesticks
Where: Gym Carriage
Warnings: Who knows atm just Minako being Minako will add more as things happen.

[Minako figured she did the best she could for the party. Though she also wondered if perhaps she might not have that many people come. Sure she wanted to put singles together, but at the same time, she simply wanted people to have fun.

In the dressing carriage, people will find costumes and masks that were more gothic in nature. There was food and hopefully some forms of sweet treats for those looking for it as well as a variety of drink, mostly non-alcoholic.]

OOC: Examples of the type of outfits and such can be found here: costumes and

[ Bryn.. you're so good at making Alice feel like the normal one for once in her life. ]

Are you saying you're proud of that fact? [ Since she's laughing!! And yet Alice doesn't seem nearly as offended as one probably ought to be... ]

[draconite]

I wouldn't say I'm proud exactly, but isn't it better for me to be honest about it, rather than trying to pretend it isn't true?

[ at least that way, you get some advance warning... ]

[irrationally]

Sure. But if you kill someone and you honestly admit to it, it won't magically bring that person back to life.

[ Listen, she gets that comparison might be a bit of a stretch, since at least some really dumb chaotic incident wouldn't be a direct murder attempt on Bryn's part, but still. People could die! That much is true!

And Alice has just started to relatively 'enjoy' living enough again to not want the train to explode in some horrific incident, thanks. ]

[draconite]

But I don't have any plans to kill anybody. [ Not on the train, at least. ] So that's the last thing you should be worrying about!

[ Not particularly reassuring... ]

And, besides– doesn't the train have some sort of safety feature in place to prevent such a thing? I imagine it would have to, wouldn't it?

[irrationally]

[ That might just be the most logical thing Bryn has said in this entire conversation.

Yet Alice seems doubtful. For one since Alice and logic aren't exactly on the best terms, but also just because she has to doubt everything. Including this. ]

Do you really think it cares that much about our safety? Surely they could just use a different train and pull in different people if something happened to this one. I think we are mostly likely seen as disposable.

[draconite]

You really think so?

[ Bryn looks puzzled. ]

I thought quite the opposite. It must've taken quite a bit of effort to organize all this... so, I think it's much more likely that they'd want us to survive in the long term. It'd be much more efficient than having to start from scratch all the time.

[irrationally]

That would depend on them going for efficiency to begin with.

[ Which is a logical idea, but then again, is their situation really all that logical? Surely this all could have been organised in better ways if they actually tried.

Not that Alice bothers to think up better ways herself. This is the reality they're stuck with, anyway. ]

This isn't exactly a factory.

[draconite]

It's not, but they do want us to do... something. Don't they? We've been brought here because there's something we can do that whoever arranged all of this can't do without us. So it makes sense that whatever this is, they'd want it done as quickly as possible and without much fuss. I would if it were me, at least!

[ So assuming the person running the train has the same brain worms as Bryn, we're on the right track! ]

[irrationally]

[ There's a moment where Alice is quiet. Like she's taking in the thought.

Then she realises that a dumb party with this blaring terrible music is so not the kind of place to use her brains too much at. So she just lets out a sigh and goes for deadpan instead of an actual constructive answer. ]

Just to make sure-- you aren't the person in charge of this train, are you?

[ It's a joke.

But she'd also believe it if it was true, honestly. ]

[draconite]

Oh, of course not! [ dismissive hand wave. ] If I were the person in charge around here, I'd do things very differently.

[ She's not quite waggling her eyebrows at Alice but like... the energy is definitely there. Go on, Alice. Ask her what she'd do differently. You know you want to. ]

[irrationally]

[ This feels like she's about to make the biggest mistake of her life. But it's not like even Alice is that bad at social interactions to not understand why the other is wiggling her eyebrows like that..

So she might as well jump straight into the deep end, huh. ]

Like what?

[ F for Alice. ]

[draconite]

Well!

[ oh lord here we go ]

First of all, I'd make things more fun around here! It's so boring being stuck on the train all the time and the only time we stop are for missions or for hanging around that boring old train station! So, instead of stopping just for missions, I'd arrange things so that every other stop was just leisure time for us to leave the train and have some fun! Don't you think we've earned that, with all the hard work we've been doing on missions?

[irrationally]

[ Leisure... time...

If the beach day has proved anything, it's that Alice sucks at leisure. At least she can understand it is a good thing to most people though, so that idea sounds like one of the less wild and bad ones Bryn has had so far.

.. Although. Since it's Bryn.. ]

What exactly would you consider a good place to have fun?

[draconite]

Who knows?

[ She shrugs idly. ]

Part of the fun of finding out things like that is the adventure! So I'd just pick somewhere we didn't know all that much about yet and set everyone out exploring!

[ Thank GOD Bryn doesn't run this train ]

[irrationally]

[ Help, she wants to get off miss Bryn's wild ride... ]

Ah. [ Doesn't that single sound just sound so.. full of excitement. So full of joy for life at the very thought of Bryn's plan.

She's even quiet for a slight moment after only saying that before she adds: ]

.. Well, you enjoy the party. [ SO SOCIABLE. ] I have to go.
