HELLO ALL AND WELCOME TO SAM'S CAPTAIN AMERICA COOKOUT!!!!


Over the last week or so, Sam has been going out of his way to contact as many people as he knows to invite them to a cookout at his place in the Horizon. He knows that after the jailbreak, a lot of people were separated, and this was his first thought on how to bring people together. The purpose behind it is simply because Sam thinks that the one thing all of them have in common, opinion on the Singularity and their situations aside, is that they were all brought here and can actually access the Horizon. He sees merit and use in coming together when they can, especially in ways that don't involve the politics of the land they're now living in. So, what better way to do that than around food?

The long and short of it is - this is a peace meal. Leave your issues at the door. Sam has very few rules and there is very little he will give in terms of what this cookout will entail, but three things he will make very clear:
1.) There will be no fighting at his home. You want to duke it out? Take it somewhere else. There will not be warnings or second chances. Don't be an ass.
2.) There is no meeting or serious reason for this cookout. Literally, he just wants people to come together who may no longer be able to see each other due to the travel constraints. It's meant to be fun. Come have fun. (he knows y'all know what that is, even when some of you pretend you don't). Bring food if you want to! There is also a kitchen (if you know what that is) and places to crash. Hope you like seafood!
3.) Anyone who can come into the Horizon is welcome. He'd love it if everyone came, so spread the word.
The cookout itself is set up out front, with picnic tables and chairs and fire pits and lights abound. There are tables set up near grilles if anyone wants to do any actual cooking outside, and a table (probably multiple) set up with sides and napkins and utensils. There are a variety of different places to go and sit and hang out while you're eating. Anything and everything you can want is available - food, drinks, yard games, music playing from out in the trees that will remain consistent unless someone tries to find the speakers and hijack the playlists, etc. If you can't find something outside, you're more than welcome to check the house.

All throughout the party, too, there will be a new friend. Red, as Sam fondly calls him, is a blood-red hunting hawk with silver in between the feathers. He can be found circling around Sam quite often, or perched on his shoulders, but also if you are out and about you can often see him checking up on anyone and everyone. He's a very curious little bird, and also pretty sassy, if you want to interact with him.



If you haven't, or have, been to Sam's domain before, feel free to take a look around. Anywhere is open (save for one locked bedroom) so everyone has open access, but most of the cookout itself will be located in the front yard.
OOC: This is mean to be an OPEN LOG, so leave your TLs or closed threads below! This party will last basically as long as people want it to, but the idea is for it to be an afternoon into the evening. Y'all have free reign save for destroying Sam's home, but if you have any questions, hit me up on plurk ([plurk.com profile] disarmingly or disco (dai#3757). Sam's TL is below, and he will be bouncing around like the good host he is, but lets get a little party started.

If I say yes, will you keep blowing stuff up?

[The shit-eating grin that the question makes light up her face suggests she'd very much like to say yes.]

Well...

[ Himeka purses her lips as she thinks, poking at what's left of the speaker with the toe of her boot. ]

Sam did ask that we behave ourselves here.

[ A beat. ]

...But we're not exactly fighting, are we?

[Correct response. Coraline grins, and jumps down from her perch over seven feet up to land silently and easily next to the dragon-girl.]

I'm Coraline. How did you do that, the-- [And she mimics, intentionally poorly, Himeka's shoddy magic throw. The thing.

[personal profile] aquaveiled 2021-10-15 05:12 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm Himeka.

[ She taps her chest twice as a way of introduction, indicating who she's talking about. (As if that's in question!) ]

And this?

[ Might as well show off since Caroline seems interested. Himeka is, arguably, happy to be feeling more like herself, magics most definitely included.

She holds out her right hand, turning her palm up as she collects and compresses the "aether" in the air of Horizon above her palm, creating a swirling and excitable ball of light. ]


This is just conjuration magics. This, in particular, I usually just pull from the air since it's so plentiful and shift the elemental alignment.

[Her eyes widen again, practically sparkling with delight at the sight of Himeka summoning her magic. Or conjuring, apparently.

She wants to do that so bad.
]

And you can just do that?

[And she goes to touch it immediately, wondering if she can't use it herself.]

[ Himeka can't help but smile at that reaction, can she? These sorts of spells are fairly common place, but after being without for so long, she does hold a new appreciation for them. So having that sort of instant excitement is, well, equally exciting. ]

Yes, though it takes a bit of practice.

[ An explosion of light would be amusing in some regards, but could potentially hurt. So she shifts the alignment as the ball of light turns to wind-aespected aether, visible in swirls of green. If Coral touches it, the ball will explode into a strong but harmless gust of air. ]
