4. Party Rock Anthem

Characters: Party People
Content: Bolin hosts a block party in Twilight Town. Food, fun, and partying! Whoo!
Location (including world): Twilight Town, The Sandlot
Time of Day: Late afternoon and into the night
Warnings: Excessive partying?
Notes: Feel free to start your own sub-threads, thread-jack, and just have fun. Open free for all is the style for threading.


Bolin, with the help of Spirits, Moogles, and various other people had finally finished setting up the party. There were tables laden with different kinds of food of course and decorations everywhere. They'd made sure to clear a space for dancing and Perry the Platypus had volunteered to DJ with some equipment borrowed from the moogles for the night. Bolin wished there could be more people so they could have games and stuff like a proper street festival...but for what he had he felt it was pretty good.

Now they just needed people to show up for the fun.

"I bet it turned out okay." Even if it hadn't, Xion wasn't in any position to judge. Her own attempts at cooking anything more complicated than sandwiches and cereal hadn't had much success.

She peered into the bucket to see what his version of the ice cream looked like. "Awww...It melted on the way." Odd, since most of the other ice cream looked fine.

"It sorta came out like that," Roxas sighed. "And didn't really solidify in the freezer."

He'd kept it in for a few hours, but something may have gone wrong in the process to prevent actual freezing. "I haven't tried it yet."
skysmirror: (Orly?)

"Ohhh..." So that's what had happened. Well. Xion tilted her head to one side. After a moment's thought, she straightened and put enough munny on the table for an ice cream bar and some of Roxas's ice cream. "Can I have an ice cream bar and some of what you made?"

Roxas had done his best to follow the recipe to the letter, but it had been a hard fight every step of the way and he couldn't really tell what he'd done wrong.

He nodded, and dug out the ice cream bar from the cooler, as well as scooping some of his homemade special into a cup. It was probably safer than a cone after all.

"I hope it's alright."

Recipes helped, but weren't always guaranteed proof against mistakes. For a first-time attempt, Roxas's didn't look bad. At least it was the right color.

Xion accepted the ice cream bar and cup, then set the ice cream bar off to the side while she sampled the ice cream soup. After one spoonful, she tilted her head in thought and gave a small smile.

"A little more salty than the other kind, but okay."
seasaltkeys: (A fresh start)

[personal profile] seasaltkeys 2013-06-29 11:38 pm (UTC)(link)
"Really? You're not just saying that?"

If it really was just salt, then Roxas hadn't done as badly as he'd thought. And that would be easy enough to correct the next time around. Maybe it was time to try some of his own creation.

"No, it's really just the salt."

Not that Xion was an expert on ice cream, but that seemed to be the only problem. Given other circumstances Xion would have given him her spoon and let him try some of hers. That didn't really seem necessary now.

seasaltkeys: (Eat all of the ice cream)

[personal profile] seasaltkeys 2013-06-30 08:30 pm (UTC)(link)
"Okay, so I just have to add less salt next time."

He must have just read the recipe wrong, or something like that. Maybe there was someone he could ask about it.

"Yeah, that might work."

It could be any one of a number of things that had led to the ice cream not turning out quite right. Hopefully it would be a simple fix.
seasaltkeys: (Thinking)

[personal profile] seasaltkeys 2013-07-01 10:58 pm (UTC)(link)
"That shouldn't be too hard to fix."

He glanced around, looking for a piece of paper so he could make a note to himself.

"Are you enjoying the party?"
skysmirror: (Default)

[personal profile] skysmirror 2013-07-02 04:31 am (UTC)(link)
Xion nodded in agreement. "Probably not."

Unfortunately, she didn't have any paper herself, but she could help him look.

"I think so. There's a lot to do."
seasaltkeys: (Hmmm)

[personal profile] seasaltkeys 2013-07-03 04:27 am (UTC)(link)
"Yeah, there really. I haven't had a chance to look around. I figured I should look after the ice cream for a while."

He had to keep it all cool after all. Roxas digs around in the cash box. There should be something in there. Aha! Found some. Now he just needed something to write with.

"I just got here myself. Will you have to stay here with the ice cream the whole time?"

It would be nice if they could walk around together later, maybe once Xion had her bearings. For now, she managed to find a pencil in her pocket and gave it to Roxas. "Here, maybe this will work."
seasaltkeys: (I'll sit and think)

"I don't know. I figured I should just to be safe, but I could try and find a moogle or something."

They were mostly running the show it seemed, so one of them might not mind if he went for a break.

"Thanks." He took the pencil with a nod, before scribbling the information down on paper and stuffing it in his pocket.

"You might want to. I'm sure they'd look after it so you could look around."

It would be too bad to spend a first party just hanging out on the sidelines...unless, of course, they wanted to, but that didn't seem like the case here.

"You're welcome." Xion waited while he wrote.
seasaltkeys: (I'll sit and think)

[personal profile] seasaltkeys 2013-07-13 02:54 am (UTC)(link)
"I wouldn't mind doing that. Can you send one over if you find one? I don't really want to leave the ice cream."

It still had to be watched after all, but the idea of wandering around the party sounded fun.

[personal profile] skysmirror 2013-07-13 03:59 pm (UTC)(link)
"Sure. It shouldn't be too hard to find one to help. Thanks for the ice cream."

Xion waved as she moved away to look around and find a Moogle. No, the ice cream shouldn't be left unattended, but if Roxas wanted to see the party, he should be able to.
seasaltkeys: (A fresh start)

[personal profile] seasaltkeys 2013-07-13 07:33 pm (UTC)(link)
"Yeah, no problem. Let me know if you find one. I'll get to switch places with me and then we can go look around or something."
skysmirror: (Content)

[personal profile] skysmirror 2013-07-16 04:11 am (UTC)(link)
"I will." Originally Xion had thought to send the Moogle over and let Roxas catch up at his own pace, but coming back with it so they could walk around together sounded nice, too.

[personal profile] seasaltkeys 2013-07-17 12:49 am (UTC)(link)
"Thanks," Roxas said. "You can show me around."

Wrap here?

[personal profile] skysmirror 2013-07-17 04:27 pm (UTC)(link)
"That sounds good."
seasaltkeys: (Face to Face)

Works for me

"I'll see you in a bit then, Bring a moogle over if you can, and I'll keep an eye out for one here."
