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!]

Re: Arrive and Say Hi
The grin brightened with the sheer glee that could come from telling such a clearly wonderful joke.
"I am Sidon, by the way!" he added, far too eager to get to an introduction when one could be had, as he was quite certain he had not met this lovely young woman before. "The Zora Prince! Am I to assume you are one of the hosts of this magnificent soiree?"
Re: Arrive and Say Hi
She just wanted everybody to know her title.
“This place belongs to me and my best friend, High King Eliot.”

Re: Arrive and Say Hi
She’d grown up in LA, he’d grown up in Indiana, they’d met as adults in New York. But that was the boring version of the story.

Re: Arrive and Say Hi
She’d arm-wrestle gods just to make it true.
