MASQUERADE PARTY, 33 Apocalypse Ave, Friday Evening

Party night. The best of nights. An ornate sign on 33 Apocalypse’s door invited all to knock and make themselves known.

The space inside was bigger than it looked from the outside, stretched and displaced by magic. The wallpaper was green and textured, hinting at the English countryside. On one side of the room sat a significant bar offering food and drinks, while the other gave ample space to sit. A large Jenga tower held prominence in a corner.

It was easy to miss it, though, in favor of the little streams of water that ran across furniture and floor. Tiny glass gondolas, animated by magic, made their way back and forth across each stream. The gondolas were real, though the water itself was an illusion. It called attention to the ceiling, doubly enchanted: both to draw all cigarette smoke to itself so it wouldn’t blow in anyone’s face, but also to mimic the starry sky above Venice.

You could watch the stars twinkle, or see the occasional cloud go by. Magical fireflies added to the illusion, dancing through the air like tiny lights. If you listened closely, you could hear the sea rolling in across an invisible beach. Even the air smelled faintly of it: the sea, warm food and good wine.

Welcome to Eliot and Margo’s pad, people. They’d make damn sure you had a good time.

[ocd up, come party!]

"Oh, erm...no?" Jon frowned. It wasn't as though he needed a picture of himself, but he supposed it was only fair. With a grimace, he gave up the camera to Dwight.

"Don't worry, I'll get your good side" Dwight said as he quickly snapped a picture and handed it over. "See that didn't hurt did it? And you can always toss it when you get back home."

"Yes, I." Jon blinked at the picture as it developed. He knew he was far from good looking, even before all his scars entered into it, but if he ignored that, Eliot really had done a good job with the suit. Between that and Margo's added sparkles that meant his hair mostly obscured his face in the flash, it wasn't a bad picture.

And he'd just been staring at his own picture. He tucked it away with the others, embarrassed. "I'll do that."
