WINE PARTY EVENT

Who: EVERYONE IN HINOTO-RI
Where: The Square in Scorpio Ward
When: Begins 00:00 New Years!
Summary: Anant and his Persona Dionysus throw a wine party! Mingle, have fun, and watch out for the drinks, some of them are spiked...
Warnings: Alcohol, so expect some silliness in this log. All of the silliness.



It began entirely by accident, really.

Anant had learned that one celebrated the turning of the New Year - a novel experience, really! A world that didn't stand still, that had the cycle of night and day, and the turning of the seasons; the thought of beginning time anew was something beautiful and magnificent to the deluded god. No wonder humans would celebrate such an event!

Dionysus had suggested that perhaps wine would be the best thing to toast the New Year with - and, of course, it would be best to celebrate it where the moon was high in the sky and the stars in view. Atmosphere was just as important! Their quest took them to the square in the Scorpio Ward, nicely fixed up from a past event (something about scorpions, they didn't pry). Anant, of course, brought their own table.

Dionysus supplied the wine, Anant pushed it upon those who were passing by at the time, and soon a crowd began to gather. It started small, but Anant's bubbly personality, delicious wine, and the lighthearted atmosphere drew more and more Hinoto-Ri natives to the scene, and eventually, some of the new arrivals. By the time the clock struck midnight, on the New Years, a large impromptu party had taken over the square!

The free alcohol was possibly the cause of it, but so long as everyone was happy and having fun, why should Anant object to such a thing! To observe such a large congregation of people together - it was magical! Fantastical!

Devious.

It was just past half past twelve in the morning when the 'effect's began appearing. But what did one expect, accepting alcohol from the God of Lunacy? With the moon so high on the sky, washing down on the people below, on such a jovial occasion, how couldn't Dionysus splash a bit of mischief in there?

So have fun, my fellow inhabitants. This night will surely be memorable...

[OOC: Sorry for the tl;dr! Alrighty, so everyone can mingle and do as they please in the comments! You do not have to know Anant to log in - you don't even have to interact with them! Just do your own thing and have fun!

HAPPY NEW YEARS!]

Avitus took it carefully, looking it over. He thought he might've seen the little bottle on one of the shelves in the grocery store before, but he wasn't sure. Perhaps he ought to check for it, next time he went into one....

He twisted the cap off, carefully, making sure he didn't spill anything as he brought it up to his face, giving it a little sniff before taking a sip. A pause-- and then another drink of it, longer this time, holding it in his mouth for a second before he swallowed.

"This is very good," he finally said, looking back to Anant with a smile. "I can see why you like it."

"Tinned... beans?" He knew about applying gold and silver leaf to things, but tin, to food? Surely that wasn't what it sounded like to him?

He pulled himself away from those thoughts before his imagination went too wild with it, and opted for focusing instead on the part he did understand.

"I've had chocolate ice cream," he said, "and chocolate syrup. I rather wish we'd had that flavor back where I come from... but there's much here I'd say that about.

"Have you ever tried dandelion candies?"

He couldn't help a small laugh at that, shaking his head. "No, no... it's a kind of flower. The head is a bright golden yellow color. Mixed with a little lemon, it has quite a nice flavor to it."

He thought a second. "I might have some of those candies in my quarters, actually... I should check later.

"What of the different types of grapes? I haven't seen many here yet, but there were dozens of varieties in Nosgoth...."
