destinystrings | A night of feasting and dancing

⊙

Who: Everyone (guests and non-guests alike)
Where: Geartopia
Summary: Party at the Thirsty Mare Tavern for booze and dancing and everyone's invited!
Warnings: Cowboys and Gears and Parties and Booze but mostly Booze
EVENT INFO: Read about it here if you're a new comer!

With the issue still unresolved as the days passed by, the Visitors and the Guests of Geartopia were reaching a peak as more of them appeared from the time rifts. Morale could plummet, but the mayoress would never allow that.

Thankfully, the city itself was hospitable and welcoming to all. The villagers that composed it were a colorful cast, after all. Perhaps drowning your sorrows in booze and a night of dancing would be helpful. Don't worry about the kids... well, there aren't any age limits here after all (...wait...)!

The Thirsty Mare was a large building that could hold the entire town if it needed to do so. Carved out of wood from the nearby forest with the permission of the Ancient Spirits, it rose above Geartopia like a protective beacon. It was a new building as well, no older than ten years, thus new even to the heroes who had come here before. A symbol of the growing economy and peace all around them, it was half town hall, half tavern.

At night? Definitely a tavern.

Cages of fireflies are hung up in the air, as pieces of moss and leaves are strung decoratively against the large heavy trees forming the building's skeleton. Lighting is provided with gas lamps hung around and a gigantic crystal chandelier in the middle.

To the left, a bar seats a few patrons who get tired of dancing, serving drinks for all. Don't worry; it's on the house tonight. At the far off of the hall, a giant table had been prepped with food: entire turkeys, beans (everyone loves beans here, it's quite magical), rye bread, corn, apple pie and sugar pie.

And the alcohol is definitely felt tonight, as the musicians (two wolves and what looks like a bear) settle in and begin playing. Most serious work could be held off until tomorrow, after all.

For now, have some fun! Try not to get drunk too much, the Cactus Juice here is pretty potent...

You're not a Nobody. They lied to ya, or just didn't know. I don't get all of it myself...

[This is going in a disturbing direction, and he took a step back so she wouldn't get frightened or more upset.]

Xion, you got a family at the Tower. I got no doubt that you have a heart. You have this habit of givin' people shells when you care about 'em.

Then that's not me. It's just someone who happens to look like me. I've only given shells to one person, and person is Roxas.

I'm a Nobody. There's nothing else to it.

[There's a little edge of defense to her voice. His words bring back what happened in Beast's Castle, and it gets her a little more on edge.]

[Sighing, Reno opens his collar a little, revealing the orange filled Tower collar underneath, and pulled on something else that's around his neck.

It's a green ribbon tied together, both ends wrapped around a shell. It's one of the ones Roxas gave Xion, but it's unmistakably from the same place. The green ribbon's significant too, though what it means is probably lost to her.]

Y'gave one to me when I was hurting.

I didn't give you anything.

[And while there's that recognition of where the shell comes from on her face, everything else is lost to her because of events that just haven't happened in her life yet.]

[And guess who has the worst timing in the world. She's managed to eat maybe a bit too much - is full to almost-bursting, or at least it feels like it. But before she decided what to do next, she needed to find Reno and discuss what to do next with him. Thankfully his hair doesn't make spotting him too hard. She finds him easily, pushing her way over.]

Hey, Reno? I-

[Oh.

That sure is a little her right there.]

[Tucking the shell back in his shirt, he shrugs.] Maybe. I-

[He's interrupted by the other Xion, and suddenly things are awkward.]

Uhhh...

[Yeah, he has no idea how to handle this.]

[Xion hadn't really been upset until now. Confused, maybe. But not upset. But then someone else came along. Someone who sounds exactly like her (though looks decidedly different, she decides) intruding into the conversation.

Needless to say, Xion freezes at first, going ridged and tense. And of course, now instead of being confused, she's upset, antsy, and a little irritated to boot. Because now there's someone who looks and sounds like her, and they know Reno too, which means this is the imposter that he had been talking about.

It's also suddenly two on one, and instinctively, she reacts in a defensive manner, summoning a certain keyblade to her side without a word, eyes darting back and forth nervously between the two.]

[This had gone from awkward to bad so quickly Xion wasn't even sure what to do. She reacts instinctively in her own way though, taking a step backwards. She fights to keep herself out of any kind of defensive stance though. She doesn't want to fight.

Slowly she raises her hands a little, palm out to show that they're empty.

She doesn't know what to say. She glances over at Reno, worried and slightly pleading. This... was... not good. At all.]

[There's only one thing that they could do, really. He reaches for Tower Xion's shoulder, patting her.]

C'mon, Sweets, let's leave her be.
