Milli-timed to Tuesday the 28th - New Orleans Mardi Gras

[mogget_cat]

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)

Seimei orders two crepes with Nutella and fruit. They watch the proprietor of the little shop make crepes on a crepe iron. The crepes are then spread with Nutella, sprinkled with fruit, and folded on paper plates. Seimei exchanges money for the crepes, picks up a couple of plastic forks and napkins, and puts them on a little table just outside the cafe.

"Your kindness knows no bounds, my dear friend." Sinric beams. It's hard to believe this is the same half dead creature who was lashed to the tree so few months ago.

He tries a morels, his eyes wide. "Oh! That's lovely!"

"I will be sure to give you a jar when we return to Milliways," Seimei says. "It gives me the greatest happiness to see you enjoy a humble gift of mine, Sinric-san."

"Joy should be found in all things. Small and large." Sinric beams, "And sharing a new flavour with a dear friend is hardly a small joy for me."

[OOC: Can we wrap it here? I've somehow gotten myself embroiled in multiple threads this weekend - and this is a nice place to close. Thank you as always!]
