So Vanadi's hosting the big Masquerade Ball later this month, and that got me to thinking...

( Collette starts ticking things off on her fingers. )

There's no age limit, everyone's going to be wearing a mask and in costume, there's no supervision, and one of the most common questions out of new people showing up here is "where's the nearest bar," so it'll also have alcohol. Lots of it.

( Collette leans forward, chin resting on her interlaced hands, elbows on the table. She grins. )

This is so much better than Prom would ever be.

And remember, the friends who hold your hair while puking your guts out are friends for life. Roadie wisdom.

Friends who'll take care of your bedpans after you've used them for the same purpose might also be the nurses of the future. Hospital wisdom!

[asskickersunite]

I like you, kid. You got a good sense of humor.

[whatsupcroc]

( She grins. )

Thanks! I've been fine tuning it for years. Figure it's worth taking out for a test drive once in a while. What's your name, mister?

[asskickersunite]

Eddie Riggs. So what's your story, kid?

[whatsupcroc]

Nice to meet you Eddie! My story?

( She strokes her chin. )

Which one are you after? I'm thinking someone with roadie logic is going to have the way more exciting life than the paraplegic fighting aliens in a do-or-die war for humanity and freedom of the mind.

[asskickersunite]

You'd be surprised, we were more or less doing the same thing. Only my story involves BDSM wearing demons and Heavy Metal.

[whatsupcroc]

BDS-- No way!

( She starts laughing. )

That's so weird!

[asskickersunite]

Weird and very disturbing. I'm pretty happy to be as far away from those fuckers as possible.

[whatsupcroc]

I'd totally feel the same way.

( Have a sympathetic shudder! )

How're you liking it here so far?
