[location: John Everton's House] [OPEN TO ALL!] BLOCK PARTY!!!

The time had come. Charlotte left John in charge of setting up the bar, giving him only the one request that he have a decent selection of beer, and did the work of dialing up the food. She knew she was going way over board. For all she knew no one might show up, even though she'd gotten a bit of a response to her invite. How could people resist, though. Food, drink, Dean's music, kittens? Okay, and an ex-vampire, but that wasn't his fault.

Pushing that thought away, she continued laying out the food and the carefully crafted warding spells that would protect it from the kittens. They had been given run of most of the patio, but not the yard, and not the food area. That meant they'd still be popping in and out of people's laps, but at least they wouldn't do it to plates.

When everything was ready, Charlotte ran up to change into skinny jeans, a crisp white button down and a ridiculously shiny pair of cowboy boots. Not unlike Dawn, not that she knew it, Charlotte was having too much fun with the fashion options the replicators afforded. Properly armored for the event, she headed back to the patio to wait for their first guests.





OOC: This is an open event, folks, anyone should feel free to tag in, even if they just discover the party. Start a new thread with a label if you want or just tag in on another thread. Feel free to hop around, too. IT'S A PARTY, PEOPLE! Also, this will go on as long as people are interested, so backtag all ya like. We know people will be in and out all weekend. Have fun, drink all the booze.

Social. Happy. SOCIAL. Training overcame uncomfortableness in these matters.

Training, and the fact that she had switched from beer to punch some time ago. Punch that was regrettably spiked to the eyeballs.

"Mei-mei!" Inara declared, breezing over to Kaylee and all but wrapping her arms around her head. "It's so good to see you. I don't see you enough," she said with almost comically pursed lips.

"'nara!" Kaylee manages to say before being practically smothered by the Companion. She does her best to hug Inara back but it's all just a bit awkward and probably looks hilarious.

"Ya gotta come out of your shuttle more!" She grinned. "Ya could come with me an' explore Taxon. 's a lotta nice stuff 'round."

"I should," she said with a firm, slightly unsteady nod. "We should. Safety in numbers!"

She gestured at the rest of the room with her cup of punch vaguely, going quiet for a moment, and then picked up her train of thought later, somewhere past where she'd left it. "And how are you doing really? Are you holding up all right? Are you doing fun things and meeting people?"

It seemed like Kaylee would be one of the people who'd really enjoy being able to use the hatches. She wondered just how many pretty things she'd come up with so far.
