What: Luceti Projects meet-and-greet!

Where: The barracks.
Summary: A few LP members have organized a get-together at the barracks for those with an interest in Luceti Projects to talk, eat, and relax while socializing.
Rating: PG

[ Quite a bit of thought and elbow grease has been put into preparing the barracks for this event. A banner is tacked across above the entrance that reads, "Welcome to Luceti Projects Opening Celebration!" in green paint. It's not exactly the sort of arts and craft masterpiece it could have been had they enlisted the help of one of the kids (such as Ikki), but it's better than nothing.

Just before entering the main festivities is a table with a sign-up sheet, manned by different members of Luceti Projects on a rotating basis, to answer questions or encourage sign-up.

Through the open doors of the barracks' largest hall, long wooden farmstyle tables have been set in rows to encourage mingling, placed adjacent to tables filled with food and drink that hug the walls. A wide range of different appetizers, snacks, and larger entrees have been set out for attendees, with plenty of plates, utensils, cups, and napkins. As a way to encourage more cultural exchange, the cuisine, catered by Okumura Rin, includes a little from different worlds -- cheese and crackers; sushi and yakitori; pasta and roast chicken; salads and other vegetable dishes, including a vegetable and potato stew, heavily featuring corn. A few sweets, such as cookies and a few cakes, sit alongside the savory dishes, next to which sits a very large bowl of non-alcoholic fruit punch (courtesy of Ms. Ginia). There is plenty of water, soft drinks, teas and coffee, and milk.

For those interested in trying out a more communal dish, placed about every five feet of table is a hot pot, specifically for sukiyaki, inside which vegetables, mushrooms, tofu, thin-sliced beef slowly simmer in a delicate broth of soy sauce, mirin, and sugar. Under these simmering ingredients is a base of udon and shirataki noodles to soak up the broth. Small bowls, utensils, and condiments such as soy sauce and eggs for the sauce, sit alongside each pot to encourage communal sharing.

On the other side of the hall is a wet bar (wo)manned by Ginia, with plenty of booze and an alcoholic variety of punch. Coolers filled with beer sit on the floor behind the wet bar. Martinis and other mixed drinks will be served in biodegradable plastic cups.

The smell of charcoal and wood burning wafts through the open back doors, from the glow of a respectably sized bonfire built behind the building, alongside which a long table is set, its surface filled with an assortment of graham crackers, chocolate, marshmallows, large sausages, kabobs with different meats and vegetables, and skewers for roasting.

A few yards away are the outdoor training grounds where a rather large array of weapons, both lethal and non-lethal of the wooden variety, have been set out for anyone who would like to spar. Some dried-out logs have been repurposed into a spectator area. The only rules posted: no use of magic or anything else that could critically harm opponents or spectators. No guns, except in the target practice area. Absolutely no killing. ]



(OOC: Assume that your character will be served drinks by Ginia at the bar, so use the bar area to mingle with whomever else, unless you’d like a thread. If your character would like to man the sign-up area, feel free to just drop them in on anyone. If they don’t know how to answer a question, just have them direct anything to either Erwin or Kakashi. Most importantly, have fun!!

Also, if your character hasn't voted about the LP leadership structure, the poll is still open over here! Even if they don't want to make a comment on the post itself, they can definitely still vote!)

[ Sometime... Rin walks up to Silver and makes to hold out three sticks of Yakitori and hold it up in front of his face. All the food he made isn't going to be eaten and Silver's thin anyway so he can stand to eat more. And he might as well be more friendly with him. So he does this with a sheepish look.

Go on, eat ]

[...Well, that's not what he expected while aboard the awkward express. Food. Good smelling and familiar looking food. It looks like something he and Weavile would find in Goldenrod.

And they're being offered it by Rin. Not some alliance guy, but one of his friends. So he hesitantly takes one while Weavile swipes the other two.]


Thanks.
rashness: (Cool Guys)

You should eat more, you know.

[ :T Give two to the Weavile, gosh. He exhales, leaning back a bit once his hand is free ]
feistytrader: (...uh.)

[personal profile] feistytrader 2014-04-09 02:49 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I know. [Bad habit. But he and Weavile bite off a piece of their yakitori...

...And it's delicious. More delicious than they expected it to be. The race to devour it is on for Weavile, but Silver tries to eat his a little more civilly since they're in a public setting. He'd say how good it tastes, but his mouth is full and the fact that his face lights up should be enough of an indication.]

[ HEHEHE... ] See? You're even hungry like this...
feistytrader: (thanks for the scarf)

[personal profile] feistytrader 2014-04-09 05:04 am (UTC)(link)
[Hey no it's not that, it's-] It's really good. [It's not quite Cilan level good, but he's not sure he wants to compare the two anyway. It doesn't take Weavile and Silver too long to finish their first stick; they snap the second one in half to share it.]
rashness: (Boomerang)

[ Pride shines through. He grins all the wider at that, looking more than a little childish as opposed to just smug ]

Hah! Thanks, 'm glad to hear that!
feistytrader: (I'm okay with this)

[personal profile] feistytrader 2014-04-10 05:20 am (UTC)(link)
Thanks for sharing it.

[Weavile's not ashamed at all to hold his hands out and beg for more food. That was great. Incredible, even. If he had something like that every day, he'd be the happiest Weavile in Luceti.

...Well, he's the only Weavile in Luceti, but. Still--!]
rashness: (Mowed you lawn)

[ ... He doesn't have more food. But he points at the main table over here. There's a lot more over there you know . . . ]
