Milli-timed to Tuesday the 28th - New Orleans Mardi Gras
The bar room of Milliways is always full of sound - the clatter of dishes and clink of glasses, chairs being scooted back or further in, footsteps upon the floor, rats squeaking, the background murmur of conversations overlapping one another.
But tonight the main door to the bar opens to the mouth of an city alleyway, to a caucophony of noise and music, full of seething crowds and colorful parade floats, the smells of food and sweat and smoke and beer and those colorful fruity drinks sold in yard-long plastic glasses with umbrellas in them. Mardi Gras is in full swing and New Orleans has outdone itself this time.
Yrael enters, trailing laughter from a section of the crowd on the other side. His white hair is decorated with purple, gold and green feathers, his pale face partially hidden by a sharp, glittery cat mask of gold, behind which his green eyes are bright. Over his white shirt this evening he wears a shiny waistcoat of purple, gold, green, and black. It's clearly party time, big time, show time -
"And then some!" he grins, seeing Milliways. "Fat Tuesday is upon us, Milliways! Welcome to Mardi Gras! Come, dance, explore! Laissez les bons temps rouler!"
Yrael will make sure the door stays open for any party-goer who would like to partake in the joie de vivre, and the Bar can certainly provide a change of costume...
(ooc: The post will be open all weekend and into next week as needed! Usual party-thread guidelines apply! Tag in! Threadhop! Meet new people and get into trouble! :D Yrael will be around, but his mun will not be able to tag much until Monday evening. <333333)

Re: At the door
Re: At the door
"I'm not much of a man for parties, I admit, though I have other friends who will be delighted by the festival."
UNDERSTATEMENT. It's hard to really express just how much of an understatement this is, for some of them.
"But I look forward very much to seeing your city."
Yeah he's definitely glowing.
"Is there a time you'd prefer us all to return, or are the arrangements more haphazard? I've been assured that if nothing else, I'll return here after three days, but I wouldn't want to overstay your generous invitation."
okay but please can he spend a couple of days kicking around New Orleans without being a jerk guest by doing so pleaseRe: At the door
"I would advise taking with you some token of Milliways to ensure your safe return, however, should you get turned around, and perhaps acquiring a guidebook. New Orleans can be somewhat labyrinthine, when unfamiliar."
Re: At the door
One more stop by Bar, then! He has a map and a phrasebook, but if a guidebook would be helpful too, hey, he has pockets and is quite happy to take Yrael's advice for his home territory.
"Thank you again, and a very happy Mardi Gras to you."
[OOC: Short and sweet! Seriously, Enjolras is so happy about this, though, and will definitely just... kick around basking in being in a city until he fades back to Milliways.]
