Who: Everyone. New Feathers! Old Feathers...?
What: New Feather welcome party.
When: 18th, 6 pm onwards.
Where: Welcome Centre.
Summary: This is a party. There's food and games (if you like) but the idea behind it is basically to mingle mingle mingle. Maybe make a new friend/enemy/frenemy or two?
Rating: G-PG 13 at most? There might be kids in these things, man.

The all-day rain outside makes the entire atmosphere a little drippy, a little wet, a little miserable. But rain or not, the party must go on! Or at least, so the saying goes.

It's a cosy little setup-- food, warm drinks, tables and chairs to lounge around in. So come on in, dry yourself off, have some fun. Why the hell not? The weather outside is frightful.

Hn. I was thinking more lockpicking and treasure hunting, but so long as it's not actually taking anything from people unwillingly...

Will's sort of her boss, correct? Though for the record Red, he's a lot worse about keeping things secret than you. [WELL, before she came here again Smoker definitely would have said that. This time he's not sure. Having so many people know her without her knowing what they know must be throwing her off.]

[redjacketthief]

....Pretty little head that would be too.

[Sarcasm. They know something, and he wants to know. Badly. Call him a jerk, but it was that undeniable itch again. He sighs--he'd figure it out later. For now...]

It could still be that. The people doing the hiding just need to be really clever about it, probably offer clues too. Just the thought I'm having anyway.

[deadlyjuliet]

He really is, so I don't see why he lectures me about secrecy. [SIGH. She looks over at Lupin and smiles. Poor thief, he can't be told until Grell is certain of her position here. If everyone knows she's a death god, then there's no harm in telling, but if she's supposed to keep it quiet, then....]

It sounds as if you are looking forward to this competition. It could even be a great event: crowning the Luceti King of Thieves.

[She looks up at Smoker.] And it would keep them busy, hm? No harm, no foul, entertainment for all.

[justicereigns]

Hn... I suppose....

[But don't expect him to be pleased about something that basically glorifies law-breaking.]

So long as nothing truly belonging to anyone gets taken.

[Besides, his cop instincts are already hard at work thinking how it could be a trap to make the thieves all show themselves.]

[redjacketthief]

[His eyes meet Grell's for just a second--he's watching the redhead, driven by curiosity and recklessness once again.

...but that wasn't a topic to go into today.]

That's why people who aren't participating should do the picking and hiding, Cap'. This could get pretty similar to a game back home that involves what I described, plus clues and GPS tracking. I've tried it a few times myself, and it's decent enough.

It doesn't beat breaking into a casino's vault, but it's something. [And he's always looking for ward to something that breaks the monotony.]

[deadlyjuliet]

[Nfufu, being watched is just what the redhead likes. She slides her glance back over to him, head still resting on Smoker's shoulder.]

They could always make the prizes to be taken something specially created for the event, love. It's a game, after all. The best sort of game.

[With traps and difficulties and the possibility of people dying if they set off alarms. Thrilling.]

[justicereigns]

Tch. Maybe... It still sounds like it's encouraging thievery. [Which he doesn't like. After all, rewarding them for bad behaviour? What kind of precedent does that set? Although she called him love, in public, so whatever arguments he has feel completely weak.]

Who would you get to referee it? [He hears Lupin on the 3rd party thing, but that doesn't mean Smoker's willing to sign up either.]

[redjacketthief]

And what of the thieves that are stuck here with nary a hobby or an opportunity. [That smile is a touch wicked, even with the company he's with.] If you're worried, Cap', why don't you play Ref?

[deadlyjuliet]

Yes, what of them?

And you're not entirely innocent either, Smoker. You stole my heart, after all. [that hurt me to write, guys. it hurt. orz ]

[justicereigns]

No --

[He can barely get the retort out before his cheeks burst into flames, blushing beet red.] That... that doesn't count.

And excuse me if the plight of thieves isn't something that bothers me. [At least he can blush and snark at the same time.]

[redjacketthief]

Aww, Cap'~ Your sympathy for those of us who dislike the laws on moral grounds is touching!

--By the way? My girlfriend would say that you're adorable right now.

[deadlyjuliet]

Oh, he is ever so adorable. [Kyunkyun~♥ Grell squeezes in a little closer and smiles.]

Which is why he can let us have a little bit of fun, can't he?

1/3

[justicereigns]

What? [A growl. He's heard some stories about her from Zenigata, the idea of Fujiko liking Smoker is just disturbing to him. Aside from which; "adorable?" So far over the line it's been left in the dust and completely covered. He is not adorable and don't make him prove it with a punch. However Grell squeezing and practically cooing over him just makes him turn lobster red.]

[justicereigns]

Oi! That's--

[The whole double-teaming is going to kill him. He has no idea how to handle it. One of them alone is hard enough, but with them both together he's going going to get whiplash. At minimum.]

done

[justicereigns]

[Still bright red and trying to get the situation under control.]

We'll see. That's the best you'll get from me. [Folds his arms. He'll totally be stubborn, but it was basically a license to run wild.]
