EVENT LOG PT. 1: The Fourth of July Masquerade Ball

Who: Everyone!
What: John Progress hosts a Fourth of July Ball.
Where: The Adventurer's Club.
When: Fourth of July!
Warnings: Patriotism.



Whew boy, it's the hottest Fourth in July we've had in years! Thankfully, the local nuclear family, The Progresses, are happy to host the annual Fourth of July Ball. Formal dress, patriotic wear, and straight-up costumes are all encouraged. In fact, you'll find the host wandering around in his own George Washington outfit - in fact, it seems as though everyone has turned up for this event! Anyone who's anyone is here, and this could be a good opportunity for you to connect!

...Of course, food and drink are provided. While it might be a little bit too classy for some's taste, there's a barbecue happening outside just in case you need to get away from the stuffiness for a little bit. Generally, it seems as though everyone here is friendly enough, even if the party is a little too classy.

It all seems to be going pretty well, and seems as though you finally have a pretty decent day on your hands...though, those ink splotches you occasionally see on the ground are a little weird.

[Welcome to Progress City's Fourth of July event! We're gradually going to be tagging in to the log with every NPC we've introduced thus far, and plenty that we haven't introduced quite yet! Feel free to set up your own toplevels and tag out, of course - the second part of the event log will be going up on July 10th!]

[At some point, Plankton slides his way over towards Rod, wine in hand. His only costume change is the fact that now he has an eyepatch over the other eye as well (who knows how he can see anything). Though his tone is conversational, this is clearly a topic he’s been sitting on for a while.]

So. The frozen head in your office. [Sips drink.] What’s that about?

[Rod spits out his drink the moment he hearts this]

... What frozen head?

I mean, it sure looked like a frozen head to me. Correct me if I’m wrong.

[he was in that office for like three weeks Rod]

[He clears his throat, looking vaguely like he already wants to bolt.]

I thought it would be a nice memorial.

Well, it’s certainly some kind of memorial.

...It is an actual head, though. I mean. A real one.

[Just. Gotta confirm.]

[He eyes Plankton.]

Will my answer dictate whether you will start a scandal about me?

Frankly I think keeping a fake frozen head is only slightly less strange than keeping a real one, so. Not really.
keyofimagination: (We invite you if you dare to step aboard)

...

If you insist, it is real.
