Open!

Who: Dino Cavallone + your folks!
What: One of the nicest guys in the business is down and out. Probably could use some cheering up... or a drink.
When: 4/11-13
Where: Various places!
Warnings: Drinkin' partyin' etc


A :: 4/11 :: Virgo HQ
Dino got out of bed this morning to find one less person in the penthouse. Another firing for his group, only this time it feels a little personal. He'd cared about Kaoru more than he ever told anyone but the guy himself. Now that he's gone, and Dino's left wondering why... They've worked so hard and been so close. Hue & Cry should've been the darlings of the label, at least in Dino's mind, for the work they do and the people they are. But now they're two down, and Dino's having a hard time handling it.

At Virgo HQ, he can be found in one of the various eating areas staring blankly into a bowl of half-eaten cereal, or mumbling an apology as he bumps into people while he walks around in clear distress.

B :: 4/12 :: parkside
A tribute to one bandmate gone, Dino sits in a busy area of the park with a makeshift drum (i.e. a bucket) that he's acquired from somewhere or another, figuring out a simple rhythm as he sings some words to a song he's making up as he goes along. Sometimes it's in your standard English-y thing, sometimes it's in Italian. Someone's set a hat down beside him, and people seem to be tossing little things into it as tokens of appreciation. Somehow no one has given obvious outward signs that they know who he is. Still, if someone does stop, he'll talk to them happily.

C :: 4/13 :: nighttime
After two days of not being able to find the right salve for the wound, so to speak, Dino turns to other peoples' methods. He goes to a bar for a while, sitting smack in the center, at first talking quietly with anyone who comes over, signing a few autographs here and there, but soon enough he gets sullen and waves people off. Not good. The bodyguard that seems to be watching him here is displeased.

Subsequently, then, Dino ditches the hell out of that bodyguard and heads to a nightclub instead, shucking off his coat and giving it to a random fan before he rolls up his sleeves and bypasses the bouncer entirely. Because fuck you that's why.

Once inside, he's again in the thick of things, only this time it's with a great sense of abandon, and probably ripe for bad life choices and stupidly candid conversations. He's a klutz, still, but no one seems to notice trodden upon toes when he's like this. Catch him before he finally gives out and goes back to HQ.

It's not all that uncommon to see musicians walking around with a million fans trailing behind them. Some people absorbed as much interaction as they could, others preferred to hide behind baggy clothing, or take to avoiding the night life entirely. In the nightlight, Marty can just see a figure walking past the flashing lights, and apparently ignoring the fans that were dying for his attention to his sides. When a neon bannerhead shone, Marty sore he could see Dino there.

And many, many fans.

Fans were great, but annoying, he'd admit. So he jogs up to Dino, immediately flopping one arm around his shoulder, and drawing him in. "Dino, buddy! I've been lookin' all over for you!" To be honest, he hasn't. But Dino doesn't really look like he's in the mood for fans at the moment. Marty raises his eyebrows and gives a small little smile. "I gotta show you somethin' back at HQ. It's pretty heavy!"

With that, he starts to help lead Dino away from the crowd, turning left at a corner of a street when the time came. When Marty dares to glance behind him, the fans aren't quite following anymore...but yup, there's phones. Lots of phones.

Shin's not doing much better, honestly, though he's thankful that Roxas wasn't the one to get the axe. Still, Cloud just getting fired just made the reality of how nasty the labels are sink in harder. Maybe part of Shin is hoping to find someone to share something with, even if it's loneliness. Like Billy Joel said, it's better than drinking alone. "You guys get hit by the cuts too?"

[ Why is Squalo even there? Who knows. ~Plot reasons~. But he sure spots Cavallone, stops, and takes a good long look at the bucket. ]

...So you've finally cracked, huh?

[ s...ays the guy who went to fucking bitch at the CEO when someone disappeared just a bit over a week ago ]

Hello hot blonde at the club, meet another hot blonde at the club.

Perhaps during this angsty time trouncing into the club, he miiiiight just step on the toes of Eda.

"Asshole, watch where you're doing!"

Shin sits with a sandwich and soda in hand. "Yeah. Cloud didn't surprise me too much, bot Johanna? That was out of left field, though I don't know if it's official yet."

He sighs, "The label's brutal. I thought I wanted this, but...."

[ Oh he knows, bae, he knows. ]

[ And that's probably a wise decision, although it's not like he really needs to hide anything from him either... ]

[ He barks a laugh, then suddenly sizes him up. ]


I do have some friends who need a drummer...

[ How do you feel about being in a band with Xanxus? That's ought to end well. ]

Shin looks around a bit nervously. Dazai had said some things about the labels that were getting him to think, but he hadn't really thought to be quiet about general dissatisfaction.

"Yeah. Showbiz. I guess they just didn't cut it," though his expression says he's really no so sure. He lowers his voice, "This is where I should say something about them just not being good enough, or something, right?"

"No," he sighs, "so I think I'm okay for now." Okay as in 'not fired' rather than a good headspace. He lowers his voice again, "I'm thinking if slipping out tonight."

"You heard me," he says keeping his voice low. "I bet it'll be a few days before the normal schedules pick back up. What better time?"

"Not sure yet. Probably some dive or somewhere hard to get into." Let Shin corrupt you, Dino. Give into the dark side. "But I know I want to raise a little he'll. You can't tell me you don't."

Bad life choices? It's like Dino is asking for some asshole to just wonder on over at some point. Mostly because it's a bar/club and that means it's like Xanxus central. As much as he's trying to live a "cleaner" life for his kid, he still wants to live it up before that world tour.

So, here comes Dino's alcoholic devil on one shoulder. "So you finally ditched the old man? Fuck. I thought you couldn't take a piss without that guy hanging around somewhere." For a moment, he almost thinks he's not talking about the bodyguard. That moment goes quickly.

"I'm surprised that they didn't have a sippycup with juice for you."

After her brief flirtation with freedom with the loft purchase, Aramat's now gone back to Pride HQ full-time. She doesn't like it much, but it's not only for The World Tour, but also to watch Squalo. She's quietly furious at Lesedi for what she did, for what she has done already but seeing others try to fight her and end up worse under her hands is disheartening.

Sometimes to let off stress you have to go to some trashy club with shitty music wearing the sluttiest dress you can find (that isn't for private date nights or certain kinds of clubs) to senselessly grind on people and drink.

Dino will bump into her, looking far from that innocent lady of the flowers.

That's a look he seems to revel in. Like he likes being look at like he's a terrible human being. He almost wants to prove that he is, but he's focused on Dino. Specially with how he speaks about Business. That sounds super familiar and reminds him if what he already knows. He wonders where Dino figures in to all those memories. All he knows is that he and the blond had a nice serious discussion about sharkdibs.

He gives the man a look of slight distrust but still takes the drink. Dino doesn't look like the guy who would roofie someone. "I doubt that, but sure." And then he drinks it like water because Xanxus' liver gave up ages and ages ago.
