new years eve party! ota

WHO: Everybody!
WHERE: De Chima Grand Hotel (and the entire block around it)
WHEN: December 31st, 2017
WHAT: New Years Eve Bash!
WARNINGS: Drinking, partying, etc.



[De Chima's Grand Hotel is the city's most luxurious and expensive hotel, mirroring the sophistication and art-forward nature of the neighborhood that surrounds it. The space inside is an electic mix of cast-iron detailing and majestic masonry columns, all of which create a leap from the street outside to the accomodations inside. Bruce rented the entire hotel months in advance, wanting to make a gesture to imPorts and native citizens for all of the turmoil they endured over the past year. Now, instead, they could all come together and celebrate their entry into a new year, and hopefully, better circumstances.

The hotel leads party-goers up the iron wrought grand stair, hand painted silver leaf ceiling overhead, to equally beautiful hand painted elevator doors. It takes them all the way to the rooftop, a spacious outdoor oasis with unobstructed views to De Chima's own glittering New Years Eve ball. There's a premium open bar, with catered hors d'oeuvres and dessert stations. Festive hats, horns, and noisemakers are complimentary as well as Champagne at midnight.

Not to be outdone, Tony Stark has the entire street outside of the hotel set up with a DJ and the largest speaker setup anyone has ever seen, blasting an upbeat playlist of blood-pumping music. Woden is, unfortunately, uninvited from performing after the events of last month, his photo passed around to security and bouncers alike to remove him from performing. Unfortunately, Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo, who had planned on attending, is immediately removed from the premises by mistake. He can be heard screaming through his vocodor that there is some sort of mistake, but his cries go untended. As with the rooftop above, complimentary Champane and alcohol is served at ground level.

At midnight, the countdown begins to 2018, with a fireworks display the moment the ball drops at 12:00, a joint effort between both billionaires, and one of the few things the both of them could actually agree upon for the evening. HAPPY NEW YEARS EVERYONE AT MOM!]

[ she nods, remembering her old flip phone from middle school. RIP first phone, it did the job so well. ]

We won't know until we get there. [ beat ] Ooh, but maybe they've got breath mints. And those fancy towels.

I went to a bat mitzvah once where there were even DJs in the bathroom. Or at least that's what Jimmy Jr. told me... [A look of pain crosses her face at that name, but it's quickly gone.] Uhm, I never saw because I ended up being the party planner. ... long story.
eloquentness: (coy)

[ she blinks back surprise - first, at the idea of DJs in the bathroom, and second, at the agony across her friend's face. But she must've imagined it. ]

Well. You're not planning the party tonight, so... [ she reaches for the door, holding it open, ] We'll just kick back, relax, and enjoy.

Good. I've been to more parties over the holidays than I think I've been to in... well, not my whole life, but it's more than I usually get invited to in a year. It's nice. And I've needed the distraction. [She pauses just inside the door to let Iris come in.]
eloquentness: (patient)

[ Aww. Iris can't help frowning as she steps inside. As expected, the hotel restrooms are swank, with full hollywood lighted mirrors, cloth washtowels, and even lotion to accompany their sweet smelling soaps.

More importantly, they've got a space to reapply their make-up. Iris reaches for some facial tissues, setting her purse on the counter and pulling out a shade that'll look decent. ]


Okay, Tina... just look straight at me.

[ she smiles, ] You also could've asked me earlier, next time. I wouldn't have minded.

[Tina ducks her head briefly at that, but does as she's told.]

I wanted to try doing it myself. Uhm, I guess putting on makeup is a skill, though.
eloquentness: (we could maybe...?)

[personal profile] eloquentness 2018-01-09 09:26 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, but to be fair? [ Iris whispers, like she's telling a huge secret - ] I sucked at it when I was your age.

There's a steep learning curve, and practice only makes perfect.

Well, that does make me feel better. I feel like it's something I should know how to do by now, but... I never had too many reasons to wear it, either. Working in a family restaurant means wearing nice things kinda goes down on your priorities list.
