Who: Priders! (Basically if you (or your friend, or your dog) has had a positive interaction with anyone from MANTICORE, consider yourself invited, dragged along or sent in someone else's place. And even if you haven't been invited it's totally fine to notice something's going on and show up or  randomly come across this and stay!)
What: Genos and Squalo throw a Solstice dinner party. Italian food for everyone!
When: December 21?ish (forward-dated a bit so it doesn't fall right before irl holidays)
Where: MANTICORE penthouse
Warnings: MANTICORE Squalo, Carnies, language, minors getting drunk, substance abuse, someone might decide to bone, idk.


[ Fuck the creepy shit, MANTICORE are aggressively throwing a Solstice party! Because why not, and who has the patience to wait until New Years? ]

[ There are locations/prompts in toplevels, but feel free to start your own as well. Generic timeline of the night would be: cooking, dinner, socializing with games and booze and possibly other things, and  a movie marathon into the wee hours of the morning for the ones interested.  ]

Genos

[wounds]

[It's not even that late yet. Maybe just after 12 AM and Genos is starting to tear up. His attention is completely captivated by events unfolding on screen. He's completely still as he watches The Iron Giant.

This robot just cares so much and Genos is going to be weeping by the end of it.]

[iitrebel]

[Dude he thought you were supposed to be a badass]

[Artolo is pretty damn awkward here, because he never does well with people crying. And for some reason, it just seems like the sensible thing to do to start piling pillows and blankets and shit onto Genos.]

[LISTEN IT'S HIS ONLY PLAN HERE]

[wounds]

[JUST. LEAVE HIM ALONE.

HE CAN'T STOP CRYING OVER THIS ROBOT SACRIFICING HIMSELF.

And now he's getting buried in blankets? Is this supposed to help?]

What are you doing?

[iitrebel]

...Is this not comforting?

[It feels like it should be comforting.]

[wounds]

It's... It's mostly weird.

[iitrebel]

...Oh.

...Do you need booze or drugs instead?

[Back Up Plan #1.]

[wounds]

What? No.

Dumping blankets is just weird.

[Even if Genos did the exact same thing to Tiger.]

[iitrebel]

...Not comforting?

Because I'm all out of ideas here, man.

[wounds]

Just stop trying to comfort me.

[iitrebel]

Then stop crying.

[wounds]

Let me cry over my robot movie.

[iitrebel]

...Then take a pillow. To hug. Or something.
