Velvet Sunset was the destination that Friday night.
A mid-sized bar and grille with a small stage for performers, a few creature comforts dotted about, a dance floor and the best burgers in Millenium City. The drinks were pretty good, too. A devil and a witch were the first of their party to arrive. The latter was dressed in a loose violet blouse that matched her eyes, black denim shorts and matching loafers; the comfort fit. And she was immediately hit with a wave of deja vu when the caught a whiff of the air.
The woman laughed.
Kore nudged Silvaria in her side before following the greeter to their table. A few waves here and there to familiar faces as she passed them by. A few scowls from… other familiar faces. She paid the latter no mind.
Maybe she was wrong, but Kore had a feeling that Silvaria might’ve needed a little assistance coming out of her shell. Normally that was the alcohol’s job but, if that failed, then maybe a night with a little more music and friendly faces and a little less danger and undead abominations could do it. Either way, they both needed it.
And so did the rest of the party if the texts she’d gotten over the past few days held any truth to them.
A part of her did want to share some of- most of what happened. Kore couldn’t deny that if she were really being honest with herself.. But it wasn’t like she and Silvaria were the only two who’d gone through something unnerving recently.

"Damn, I need to come back here more often.”
"Welcome to- Oh, hey Kore. ‘Smith’: party of seven, right?”
"That’d be us.”
"You wanna wait on them or should I go ahead and find you two a seat?”
"Find us a seat. I don’t think anyone would mind if we went ahead and got comfortable.”
"Okay. Right this way,” the greeter paused for a moment before adding, "You know you don’t need to bother reserving a table here, right? Outside of holidays, we might be close to having a full house like two or three times a year.”
"Yeah. And the one time I don’t, I’ll end up needing a reservation.”
The woman laughed.
Kore nudged Silvaria in her side before following the greeter to their table. A few waves here and there to familiar faces as she passed them by. A few scowls from… other familiar faces. She paid the latter no mind.
"Someone will be with you shortly to take your orders.”
"Thank you,” she turned to Silvaria, "I’m covering both of us tonight so, if you see it on the menu and want it, go ahead and get it. Just don’t go… too overboard on me, alright?”

"Apparently, while we were chasing after Sugar Skull, another evil witch went on a massacre in MC. And, from what I heard, it didn’t go very well for our friends. So, do me a favor, Silv. It may not come up but, if it does, let’s keep some of the… heavier things that happened down in Louisiana to ourselves and keep it light.”

”We’re here to relax, not give everyone another thing to stress over okay?”
OOC
1)This RP is mostly for characters who participated in Grave Investigations and Standup Comedy. If your character wasn’t in either event, then get my approval to join before joining this.2)No combat in this thread. If your characters have beef, have them leave Velvet Sunset, leave this thread, and come back after they’ve hashed it out. Plenty of that to come, but the characters here are taking a break from it to reflect and shiz.
3)Have fun, I guess, lol
