[om_nom_namur]

Characters: EVERYONE!!! And any "local" NPCs you want to make up
Location: A warehouse down by the wharf
Rating: G+? idk people will do as they will do
Open/Closed/Finished: Open
Summary: It's an excuse to pump dance music really really loudly, tbh.

The party was put together ridiculously fast, but everyone who decided to help went all out, and the place is pretty damn awesome. There are refreshments, strobe lights, a loudass music setup, and lots of space to dance. Come on in and have a blast! Garden will be sailing off in the morning, and then it's back to school. Time to get in that last hurrah!

"No way!" GULP. "I guess I can kinda see that, cuz she's sorta like, glaring a hole through people, yanno?"

Starting to take affect, just a little bit. "Man, I already know iz bad to drink t'is. Doesn't mean I'm not gonna! I live on the Wiiiild side!"

As if on cue, her hat flew off revealing quite the long flowing tresses.

[thatched]

That hair...! He may be a little tipsy. Okay, probably very tipsy at this point, but there is no denying that she has good hair and a lot of it. Probably the best he's seen in this place. A nice color, too. He wonders what she uses on it or if it just comes out naturally that way.

In either case, it was too good of an opportunity to miss. He set the cup aside and put his hands on her shoulders.

"Fionna. The time stream may take you away in an instant, but as long as you're here... How would you like to be a Blue Phoenix pirate under the four-- First division?"

[fionna_time]

Fionna giggled. She was pretty tipsy too, but people always gave her looks when her hair came down, like they never saw the stuff before! Well ok, just a tuft of it usually was what was seen, but still!

The hands thing was unexpected, but she was drunk, so she didn't body slam him as per usual reflex.

"Man, I hope not, I like this place! Drink, learning how to fight and...really?" Ok, she was genuinely touched, tipsy or not. "What's the deal with the four first division?"

[thatched]

"First difisi...division. It means we fight together, die together if we have to and follow our captain without question."

Well he was allowed to question because he had seniority and Marco was pretty damn questionable sometimes.

[fionna_time]

"Ah haha, you can barely s-say it!" Fionna snickered, giggling. "No questioning the captain? At all? He's gotta have a lot of know how then!"

She grinned. "But I think you know me by now to know my answer!"

[thatched]

"I have no idea actually!" He laughed, because for some reason that was really funny. "But as we have the best parties and no one wants to miss out on that, I'm going to take that as a yes. Besides which, you be able to bother Nam-chan whenever you want." Which, as far as Thatch was concerned, was a bonus.

[fionna_time]

"Aw come on, yes!" Fionna said, grinning. "Pirates are awesome! It's not just parties, I mean, you guys are smart and cool and saavy and everything! Yes!"

She chuckled, shaking her head. "Oh, he'll love that!"

[thatched]

"You, too, sweetpea. And he'll adore it. We'll have to find Marco to get it all settled, but first, Fionna my dear--" he pressed another paper cup into her hands.

"A toast, to new nakama!"

[fionna_time]

Fionna, giddy with drink and enthusiasm, seemed to raise herself higher, and gladly accepted the cup.

"Yes, a toast to...to...that thing you said!"

[thatched]

"Na ka ma," he said patiently. "It's what we are now. Crew. Family. Awesome bastards with awesome hair."

He slammed back his drink and got another. If they didn't empty the punch bowl between them it was going to be a wasted night.

[fionna_time]

"Nakama," Fionna repeated, glad she was not too drunk that she would fail to pronounce it right.

She grinned, and walked over with him. "So I guess this is our last thing before we have to do our school thing, right?"

[thatched]

"Our school thing?" He blinked at her. Balamb was full of school things so if she wanted him to respond she'd have to be a little more...precise.

[fionna_time]

"Well, I mean, YOU don't have to do what I do, but you're a teacher. You have to get all your lesson plans and stuff ready, right?"

He did have to do those.

[thatched]

He chuckled. Well he'd wanted to chuckle but it came out more of laugh than anything. He'd been drinking a little too much.

"I've been teaching this damn unit for so long I've got lesson plans stocked for the next three years." He snorted and refilled both their cups. "It's all I can do not to sic a couple of first timers on a t-rexaur and see what they do."

[fionna_time]

Fionna was with him on the chuckling and raised him a giggle. he was used to drinking, after all: she was not.

"No way, really? You are the best teacher ever! I mean, yeah, they're all big and stuff, but its an awesome way to tes their skills!"

She put an arm around him grinning. "I LIKE your style!"

[thatched]

"I like your style, too. It's why we work so well together." He ruffled her hair. "If you have time in between classes you can be my personal assistant. I'll pay you a bit. Maybe even teach you some subterfuge. How would you like that?"

[fionna_time]

"No way, really?!" Fionna was enthused, giving Thatch a big hug. "Thanks a lot! I even know what subterfuge means, so that's cool! Namur told me you knew how to teach it!"

[thatched]

"Yes way, really." He pats her head absently. Cute kid. "And subterfuge..." Did he pronounce that right? He takes a moment. Yeah. Yeah he did. "Is making people think you're not spying on 'em when you actually are."

[fionna_time]

"You think?" Fionna knew she was going to have some hard work there. Not even she was foolish enough to thin she had the barest hint of that in her personality or her appearance. "And you can do it?"

[thatched]

"I can do it, and you can help. It just takes a little patience and trusting me, Bunny-chan. I have your back no matter what and you have mine, aye? Together we'll help Marco conquer the world."

[fionna_time]

"You got it bro!" Fionna said, grinning. "Wait, what was that about Marco taking over the world?"

[thatched]

"Forget about it. You're drunk. We'll talk about it later." A song started up with a fast beat and he watched the young people noodle about the dance floor.

"That looks like your jam. Why not go indulge, peanut?"

[fionna_time]

"HEY, that doesn't mean-"

She trailed off when she heard the music, already shaking her hips. "OKseeyoulaterbyee!"

[thatched]

He chuckled as he watched her go off. She was going to be quite a lady some day and he hoped she stuck around long enough for him to see it. As for himself... it seemed about time for another cup of punch.
