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.

They can do that because they have lots of money. But...I guess you didn't have your tail attached?

[rashness]

[But why would they want to?]

No, I didn't.

[Fashion is a strange, strange thing.]

Were you born with it?

[rashness]

M...maybe. I dunno, but I just sort of grew it not that long back.

[rutagraveolens]

Do you wish you didn't have it? [Sorry, Rin, curious kids as lots of questions.]

[rashness]

Well it's not like I can wish it off or anything, so, I guess... I never thought about it.

[rutagraveolens]

I guess cutting it off would be pretty painful too.

[A friendly smile.]

I'm Rue.

[rashness]

O...oh. Did I say? I'm Rin.

[with a thumb jerk at his face]

[rutagraveolens]

Hi, Rin. Have you been here long? In Luceti.

[rashness]

[That question hurts. Every single time]

...Yeah. Longer than I'd like.

[rutagraveolens]

Oh. Sorry. [A beat.] Maybe you'll go home? I hear sometimes people get sent home.

[rashness]

I know they do, I've seen it. But it's not comin' fast enough and it doesn't make it okay I was here anyway

[rutagraveolens]

But if you go back home, you won't remember being here and time doesn't move back home. That's what people say.

[rashness]

Yeah, so what?

[rutagraveolens]

Maybe being here isn't so bad then? Because you aren't missing anything back home and there's so much you can do here.

[rashness]

Don't tell me there's nothing I can do! [Whoops, too loud. Oh well] I don't care what it looks like, there's nothing okay about trapping people here or keeping kids here!
