OMG VD!

[Gosh you guys, there must be a holiday on! One of the bigger, more well-lit caves has been decked out for a PARTY, with heart-shaped BALLOONS and also red and white STREAMERS decking the stalactites and shit. There are BUCKETS filled with LITTLE CANDY HEARTS, and there is a FOUNTAIN featuring a rosy-cheeked CUPID who is PEEING PINK LEMONADE into a basin. Also ther are CUPS in case you couldn't tell the LEMONADE was for DRINKING.

Also, everything is HEAVILY SPIKED WITH APHRODISIACS. Eating or drinking the party favors will make you want to MAKE OUT with anyone who gets IN STRIKING DISTANCE. Have fun with that!]

Well, uh...it looks like...they were trying, to be nice....

[going for a glass of punch, but trying not to get too close to the candy buckets]

((will tag with anyone, will probs be awkward all over))

[personal profile] onlyhonournow 2012-02-14 04:01 am (UTC)(link)
If my memory serves me correctly, it's intended to be a celebration of sorts. . .
bythehorns: (nEVER THOUGHT OF THAT)

[personal profile] bythehorns 2012-02-14 04:03 am (UTC)(link)
Uh...do you know, what it is, celebrating? It looks, kind of nice, but also, kind of rude....
onlyhonournow: (limitless)

[personal profile] onlyhonournow 2012-02-14 04:08 am (UTC)(link)
I suppose it is. I still don't know much about human courtship rituals, but...
bythehorns: (nEVER THOUGHT OF THAT)

[personal profile] bythehorns 2012-02-14 04:17 am (UTC)(link)
That is, what it is for? The heart symbol, um, represents, one of the kinds of troll romance, too.

[peering into cup of fizzy pink stuff]

Probably, they would not, give us things, that were bad to drink, would they?
onlyhonournow: (fearless)

[personal profile] onlyhonournow 2012-02-14 04:31 am (UTC)(link)
One of the kinds?

... If they wanted to get rid of us, I don't think this is the way they'd go about it.
bythehorns: (oPTIMIST)

[personal profile] bythehorns 2012-02-14 04:33 am (UTC)(link)
I'm glad, you think so, also.

[will sip this drink then. gosh that's a lot of sweet.]

And um, yes, trolls have, four kinds of romance, but I think, the hearts kind, that is, flushed romance, is possibly, the nicest one....
onlyhonournow: (limitless)

[personal profile] onlyhonournow 2012-02-14 04:43 am (UTC)(link)
[smiles knowingly :'D and raises his eyebrows]

Ah. It sounds like you're speaking from experience.
bythehorns: (bECAUSE I'M CUTE?)

[personal profile] bythehorns 2012-02-14 04:47 am (UTC)(link)
Only, um, a very little bit, so far, but, Gamzee and I, we are, trying it out, and, it's very nice, to be with him, like that.
onlyhonournow: (fearless)

[personal profile] onlyhonournow 2012-02-14 05:02 am (UTC)(link)
[is that snarking as he bends down and leans in?]

I noticed.
bythehorns: (bECAUSE I'M CUTE?)

[personal profile] bythehorns 2012-02-14 05:07 am (UTC)(link)
I guess, uh, we are not, very good at, being subtle, about it, but, it just feels, so nice....

[leans toward, which probably means there is a CLANG of horns on metal about here]
onlyhonournow: (fearless)

[personal profile] onlyhonournow 2012-02-14 05:35 am (UTC)(link)
[this is new and interesting. it's rather comfy like this, somehow.]

I'm glad you're both enjoying yourselves.
bythehorns: (pic#1082740)

[personal profile] bythehorns 2012-02-14 05:39 am (UTC)(link)
Me too, it's, much nicer, than back home.

I, um, hope you're also, having a good time, being here....

It's a festival for those in a romantic relationship, I think.

[attempts to tastefully place herself between Tavros and a bucket, but lacking any kind of social graces whatsoever, it ends up being pretty awkward]

Hi, Tavros.
bythehorns: (fRIENDLY TROLL)

[personal profile] bythehorns 2012-02-14 04:20 am (UTC)(link)
That is, a very nice thing, to celebrate, I think.

[we can have an awkward-off, if you want. the competition is pretty fierce around here!]

Hello, um, Celes.
ice_and_steel: Celes looking directly at the viewer (Default)

[personal profile] ice_and_steel 2012-02-14 04:28 am (UTC)(link)
[the problem is that, being of a rather slight build, she cannot act as shield for both the buckets and the fountain. But she will try. Awkwardly.]

It can be very nice, yes. There was a lot of emphasis on flowers and chocolate, as I recall. Not so much with the pink lemonade.

I can maybe try to scare up some candy that hasn't been in a bucket for you, if you'd like.
bythehorns: (nICE TO BE HERE)

[personal profile] bythehorns 2012-02-14 04:30 am (UTC)(link)
That sounds, um, like it would be, nice of you, since, earth candy is, a thing I might like, to try.

...Um, are you, okay? Only, you seem to be, sort of fidgeting.
ice_and_steel: Celes looking directly at the viewer (Default)

[personal profile] ice_and_steel 2012-02-14 04:32 am (UTC)(link)
[flustered] Oh. Well. The buckets seemed to make you uncomfortable, so I was standing in the way, only then I can't also stand in the way of the statue.

[jeez. doing nice things is surprisingly hard.]

[looking around surreptitiously for non-bucketed candy, except that subtlety is not so much a thing]
bythehorns: (eRM)

[personal profile] bythehorns 2012-02-14 04:35 am (UTC)(link)
So, uh, the statue is, rude for humans? I thought, it might be, since, the dwarves gave me, that rude design, for my recuperacoon....
ice_and_steel: Celes looking directly at the viewer (Default)

[personal profile] ice_and_steel 2012-02-14 04:36 am (UTC)(link)
It's--sort of rude? Generally displaying one's genitalia is considered rude, except when it's art. For some reason, this qualifies as art. But if you were to just walk around with no clothes on, most people would react poorly.
bythehorns: (nEVER THOUGHT OF THAT)

[personal profile] bythehorns 2012-02-14 04:39 am (UTC)(link)
[nods seriously]

Trolls would not, want to display themselves, like that, either, which is, partly, because it is rude, but also, I think, partly, because it means that, your soft parts, are exposed, and a lot of things, on Alternia, are pretty dangerous....
ice_and_steel: Celes looking directly at the viewer (Default)

[personal profile] ice_and_steel 2012-02-14 04:44 am (UTC)(link)
Even where things aren't dangerous, you usually don't want that exposed. I heard some stories in the army of mishaps when soldiers forgot to, uh, tuck in appropriately. The results were not kind.

[spies a bag of candy tucked away on a table, probably intended to refill the buckets] Hey, there's some non-bucket candy. [points]
bythehorns: (fRIENDLY TROLL)

[personal profile] bythehorns 2012-02-14 04:49 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, that's exciting, um, do you think anyone would mind, if we took some?

You are, so very nice, to help me, like this.
ice_and_steel: Celes looking directly at the viewer (Default)

[personal profile] ice_and_steel 2012-02-14 04:52 am (UTC)(link)
Well, it's out here, and it doesn't look any different than what's in the buckets. We can see if anybody put a "do not touch" sign on it, I guess.

[Troll culture probably considers it inappropriate to ruffle his hair. And also it would probably be undignified, at least to him. So she pats him awkwardly on the shoulder unstead.]
bythehorns: (pic#1082738)

[personal profile] bythehorns 2012-02-14 05:01 am (UTC)(link)
[oh touching and it's friendly touching that's nice maybe we should lean into it a little--

balance, balance is important, especially when your horns are sort of too big, and you flail a little bit trying to get yours back]

Um, that is, probably, a good idea.
