Who ☀ Hector & "everyone"
What ☀ It's Hector's birthday!
When ☀ August 5
Where ☀ Lumina Cloth. Surprise!
Content Warnings ☀ drunk people, will add as needed

[ Arrive at Mac Anu, where the welcome party was held, to find it...empty? A quick look on the forums shows a little edit to Hector's post:
We're popping Lumina Cloth's cherry! See you there :-)

So that's where he is.

In the center of the brightly illuminated nighttime city, Hector's set himself up for his little get together. But since he doesn't have any tables or plates or anything fancy like that, all the alcohol and food he bought from various vendors are just...strewn around the floor. The food is probably still good to eat, though. It's fine. Take what strikes your fancy!

Hector's wearing his outfit again. He lounges on the steps of that funky spinny thing in the center of town, and anyone who gets close enough to hear him will hear music coming from his mic. Give him a break. He's doing his best.

When enough people have gathered, he might actually get up and drag everyone into a drinking game.

So enjoy—eat, drink, mingle, and smack your friends! PvP is enabled here, after all :) ]

Haha, oops?

[Leo genuinely forgot. Short term memory isn't one of his strongest assets, especially when it goes against giving the gift of hedonism.]

Why not open it up and see what's inside? It's honestly something that could be shared with the class, so if you want to pretend it's not a gift and more a party favor...

[Leo leans down and snatches the pastry out of Hector's hand with his mouth.]

Mmm, thaws gewd~ [He says, with his mouth still full. He finally chews and swallows.] Of course! [Pretending that what he did wasn't weird as hell. An interesting technique - let's see if it plays off.] Anyways, how have things been going so far? It seems that quite a few of the games have already kicked off.

[Error 404. Leo's brain not found.]

[He sorta stands there for a few moments attempting to process the words coming out of Hector's mouth. Damn, we're really going there already? Not that he isn't okay with it or anything...]

Fair enough! [With a sly grin of his own, he gently takes the pastry half in one hand, then wraps his other arm around Hector's back and holds him close. The baked good is dangled close enough for Hector to grab with minimal effort.]

[Leo's heart skips a beat when Hector's eyes briefly lock with his. Damn this guy is good.]

It's good, but it can be better, I think~

[It's time to up the ante. Grabbing another pastry with his free hand, Leo gently places one edge in his mouth, then hovers his head within reach of Hector's. Care to do the 'ol Lady and the Tramp?]
bleatingedge: ehehe... (embarrassed)

[personal profile] bleatingedge 2023-08-09 11:27 pm (UTC)(link)
[Oh yeah. We're doing this.

Leo does his best to match Hector's pace, taking slow cautious bites from the other side of the pastry until there's just a tiny bit left between the two of them. After a few moments of no movement, Leo makes his move.

With a quick swipe of his tongue, he moves the remaining bit of the pastry into his mouth, then softly locks lips with Hector.]

[Leo's eyes widen in surprise a bit from the resistance - he didn't want to push things too far in case Hector got uncomfortable - but now that he knows his advance is completely warranted, he braces back with more intensity.

While Hector's hands go upwards, Leo's hands go lower, locking together in place tightly around the smaller man's lower back. He doesn't cede easily, but eventually allows entry into his mouth, playfully maneuvering the bit of pastry around for a while with his tongue before letting it go for Hector to appreciate.]

[Leo lets out a hearty, mischievous chuckle.]

Perhaps the chase was my true gift all along~ [It wasn't.] But I do have one more thing for you though.

[Loosening his grip on Hector slightly, he pulls a hand free to open his menus and sends a guild invite the cleric's way.]

I've spun up a guild named The Epicurians, and I just sent you an invite. We are a collective of individuals looking to seek all of the pleasures The World has to offer, and you seem like one that's keen on doing just that. One of the perks includes private rooms for the members to use as they wish.

[He doesn't say it out loud, but what he means is heavily implied.]

[Leo looks genuinely excited upon seeing the guild join notification.]

Of course! Happy to have you among our ranks~

[Even with his proposition in the air, it's more than that in his mind. It feels good to be forging real connections with people this early. After a rough few years... finally being on the up-and-up is heartwarming.

He puts his other hand back around Hector and gives him a tight hug.]

[Leo flushes a bit upon Hector's touch, but relishes it silently. Finally letting go of the other man, he reaches down and grabs two bottles of beer from the gift package, holding one out for Hector to take.]

Happy birthday, Hector. May your next year be even better than the previous one. [Leo holds his bottle up to clink against.]

[The genuine happiness on Leo's face is palpable. Attempting to recall the last time anyone has said something that nice to him has him coming up blank.

He's lost in the bliss of the moment until Hector's hand brings him back to reality.]


Right! Gotta go mingle with more people and whatnot. Plus I see people playing games - I have to see what it feels like to play another game while being inside of a game. [He laughs.]

Yeah, absolutely!

[Leo gives Hector a little wave and pivots on a hoof before heading into the sea of partygoers.]
