▶ THE VENUE ◀ Welcome to Insomnia 2.0! While renovations are still ongoing and things are likely to change and improve over the next several weeks, the bar is now open for business on this very auspicious day. The bar is being opened in conjunction with one of it's owners birthdays; Tony Stark. So for that reason, the bar will be free for the duration of the party! So please come, enjoy and have a fantastic time! What you will see when you arrive at the bar will be twinkling lights. All signs of construction have been cleared away. Outside there are three long tables and chairs, two of which will be covered by a white table cloth and a variety of food and drink. Fairy lights hang from the walls and roof, scattered about like little stars. As the sun goes down more lights will brighten the area giving the outside of the bar an almost magical feel. Inside the bar it has also been cleaned up. There are more lights, hanging and lining the walls, but there is also music and a space lined up for dancing, should anyone wish to enjoy Tony's Earth music. Most tables and chairs have been moved outside, but the rest have been moved toward the walls to give more secluded, private areas while leaving the main room free for people to mingle and dance. While the décor is simple. It is elegant and as the night creeps in the magical feel will only grow. ♫ THE MUSIC ♫ There WILL be karaoke! ▶ THE FOOD ◀ There are two tables set up containing food, these tables are covered with a table cloth and outside. Gladio would like to thank Lup and her team for helping with some of the catering. As well as Ignis, Mina, Ann and Pyra for help with other cooking and the making of the cakes! Finger foods: • Various kinds of sandwiches • Affurgato's signature quiches. • Salad bowls. • Meat and fish skewers with vegetables with interesting and tasty sauces. Desserts: • Various flavours of fruit tart. • Assorted flavours of cookies. (Including white-chocolate macadamia) • Nyalasadas • Croquembouche. • Three Birthday Cakes! Strawberry, Chocolate and Coffee. Drinks: • With thanks to Affurgato: Red, white and rose wine will be available. • There will be ales, cocktails and champagne on offer. • As well as fruit sodas. • The bar will be open so all ale will be free for this night. ▶ DRESS CODE ◀ The dress code for the party is: Fancy. Suit and tie and party dresses are a must. Why? Because when else do you get a chance to dress up and have a good time? If the girls want to wear suits and the guys want to wear dresses, that is within the rules! Colours don't matter. The idea here is to have a good time and to enjoy yourself! ▶ O.O.C ◀ There are going to be a few prompts below should you be interested to join those, but feel free to make your own top levels and enjoy the shenanigans! |

[Oh- Stark was apparently skilled in this sort of game too. Good, it wouldn't be any fun if it wasn't a challenge.
Why can't you be normal, Seto]You're welcome. Indeed. [Except in the void he had previously come from but that was purely because time was malleable and no one had any concept of what month it was supposed to be at any given time. Ah, there were some things he missed about that place. Birthdays were not something he cared to think about, save for his brother's which was swiftly coming up (July 7). Would he get to see his Mokuba for this one..? Mentally he thrust that thought to the back of his mind for to fixate on it would be detrimental.] When the time comes. [And hell freezes over] So she's told you about us? [I mean, why wouldn't she have? Seto himself did say he had a girlfriend]
Ah but the focus shouldn't be on me at your party, how old are you now?
no subject
Very well. And no, a little birdie informed me of a fight you had with her on the phone while someone else was there too. Recall something like that?
[He should've expected the next question. It was only logical and one he'd been dodging all night. However, he hadn't thought Kaiba would been someone to ask that question.
He opened his mouth to try and answer that but floundered with a very undignified 'uhh'. He knew his age when he was taken from his world. He only sort of knew what they were guessing from the train. What he really didn't know was how last month factored in when he woke up to a more youthful face. So how old was he?
He wasn't about to admit to Kaiba he had no idea. Belatedly, he tries for humor and covering up the flustered few seconds with a sip/ gulp of his martini.]
I'm old. Once you hit fif- forty- something is there a point to continue counting?
[Just eat your damn cake.]
no subject
He looked to the cake briefly as if the frosting could direct him into the best way to field that.]
Vaguely. [That was a 100% a lie, since the fight was still fresh in his mind and was part of the reason he'd accompanied Ann willingly here. He didn't see the need in lingering over it, and the birdie was definitely Gladio]
[Of course Kaiba was the one to ask it because honestly it was one he would avoid too, even if he was not as advanced he was vain. The dumbfounded "Uh" was amusing in it's own way. What is he having a arterial flow problem? How difficult is it?. The answer he received didn't make it any easier to bite back his commentary.]
.. And in technology. [With advanced age came some unavoidable drawbacks in everything from processing speed to dexterity, though he didn't expand on what he was inferring. It looked like Stark's memory had already suffered some depletion.] Some people do keep track of it.
no subject
The look Tony levels at Kaiba could've killed lesser beings.]
What I shall keep track of is all the other more attractive and more pleasant young men in this city who would treat Ann better than you and introduce them to her. What you should keep track of is my patience and how blackmail works.
[Sigh.]
Shall we try this again?
no subject
I didn't realize your field was such a sensitive subject. [As if there had been no intended implications. Still, at the mention of blackmail Kaiba knew he was treading a thin line and should navigate it carefully. If only Stark hadn't brought his girlfriend into this...] As for Ann, she's not a child and she is fully capable of making up her own mind. [Even if they were discussing matters of the heart. How he so desperately wanted to say something more threatening like, Mess with Ann and it won't matter what you can hold over me, you'll be finished.
He was a little possessive, this one]As you like. [Oh.. how he longed for the day when he would reverse his fortunes and have the upper hand.]
You've had quite the turnout for your party.
Super old, you can ignore >.< I'm so sorry!
She is. She's quite lovely. What the hell is she doing with you again?
[Here, have his dirty, empty, martini glass. Was that random enough you just took it? It was almost like that had been planned. Now Tony's taking your cake because you've lost cake privileges. Yep, taking a big bite out of it too.]
See what happens when people like you? They show up and have a good time.
Kaiba knows you are Tony but he'll still talk to you.... OH.. OHHH.. you meant the tag >3. /shot
That's between me and her, isn't it?
[Not keen on divulging their origin story, or the experiences that had drawn them together. All that mattered was that they were an item, and Kaiba wouldn't let anyone tear that asunder.
When he found himself stuck, literally holding the empty glass, he knit his eyebrows briefly before relaxing them. It would take more than this Mr. Stark]
That's one reason.
[The attempt to be civil prevented him from expanding on the subject. The attendees could be here for a variety of reasons that went beyond fond feelings. If Tony was as skilled and well off as he appeared than it could just be the usual hangers on trying to benefit from his success. Kaiba had such a dim outlook on other's motivations. Casually, he glanced around to see if there was a waiter he could foist this glass off on, tiring of being a table.]
.. Fortunately for me I've never been in need of such adulation to bolster my ego.
[No, he could do that all on his own....]
So. Rude.
[Seriously, he's been there and done that. It's a horrible type of boyfriend to be.
And that last answer had Tony laughing so hard, he choked on his last bite of cake. He coughed and took a second to clear his throat.]
For godsakes, Seto! If you're going to lie at least make it halfway believable!
