five | [Location: Levi's Mansion] | got my boots on, the right amount of leather

New Years Eve.

Levi is ready, decked out in his party suit, and a lot of makeup. He's just finished his preparations, and he's sitting in his living room, waiting patiently for Cordelia to arrive, and then the guests. Of course, the party isn't taking place in his living room. That's much too small for such a large event.

He's having a party in his basement.

His basement is huge, and he's decked it out in lights and such that he's hatched. All of it has a New Years theme, somehow; Levi's good at throwing parties, he knows how to decorate. The room is basically like a nightclub. It's dark, but clear of most beams and supports; there are couches and chairs, and a bar to the far end, stocked with just about every type of alcohol imaginable (as well as a few different types of blood). Here and there, there's potted plants and trees in clumps, as well as a giant throne, surrounded by those plants, further along on the back wall. There's also a large stage towards the middle, with a dancing space out in front of it. And right above the stage is a giant clock, which Levi had set up earlier for the countdown later that night.

As for music, he's got a whole playlist, just waiting to be started. It's a huge mix of things, from pop-y dance music to slow songs for the couples. There's a few setlists, of sorts, pinned to the walls and the bar.

It's about ten minutes before the party arrives, and Levi is waiting impatiently.



[[ooc: Vaguely organized planning post here! If there's a song you suggested and you want it to be played, it will be. Just handwave it. So yes! Have fun. :D

EDIT: Subthread labeled for the countdown to midnight is up! Grab your date and tag there for kissy tiemz. :3]

"Ethan Ford," he greeted, nodding politely. "That's an... interesting name, if you don't mind my saying so."

Smiling slightly, he waited to see what she would do next. Normally he'd get her drink for her, but the problem with this time, he'd noticed, was that certain gestures weren't quite as appreciated as they'd once been. Who knew, this could be included.

"Interesting?" DG gave him an amused look. "That's new. I usually go for 'original'."

She'd also spent a lot of time during her childhood wishing that her parents had been a little less creative. Her unusual name had never seemed to fit in with Mom and Popsicle and their little farm in Kansas. Now she had a better idea of who she was, it made a lot more sense.

"It took me a while to get used to it," she continued, "And it would be nice to know if it stands for anything, but I wouldn't change it."

She shrugged, then smiled.

"Would you mind pointing me to the bar?"
