Tamsin's House of Sharp Things And Presently Not Enough Alcohol, Thursday Evening

For a couple of minutes, Tamsin had contemplated the idea of just opening up Town Hall for the party, but... what would be the point in that? People were fired up on hormones, people wanted to get laid, you needed a space small enough to get 'em close together. So to speak.

Also, this way she got free booze out of the deal, so-- win win.

She'd hung the black sheets back in front of the large store windows (partly to keep the light out, partly so it was slightly less obvious the house was technically a shop she was technically maybe squatting in). She'd tossed a ton of pillows and an old mattress on the floor, since she didn't actually have a sofa, per sé. The rooms upstairs were... well, okay, they were rooms.

And there was a table for incoming booze. With solo cups. Of course.

Perfect. Time for a party. If anyone had seen the posters...

[[ ocd incoming... up! adults only party is a go! eta: i should probably note browse responsibly, since there might be hints of nsfw in the comments at some point, i have no idea how this post will roll ]]

If asked Eliot would say he was way too old to go to a make-out party. Except for how he was totally showing up at the make-out party. It was next door and beat the hell out of sitting around wondering if his friends were having sex, so.

He didn't bring anything though. That would require preplanning, rather than just showing up.

Eliot shrugged. "Was all out."

It wasn't even a lie. He had a lot of repressing to do this week.

"Scout's honor," Eliot promised, proceeding to get the hand gesture completely wrong. "Didn't even know anyone was livin' over here."

"And you've done so much with the place." It wasn't as if Tamsin was the first woman Eliot had met who went with the 'permanent squatter' look. She was probably the first mayor he'd met who did, though.

"Luke's, yeah. It's currently a diner." With any luck, it'd stay that way, but Hardison could be pretty insistent when he set his mind to something. "Also been teachin' up at the school this semester."

"Yeah, the hell is up with that? She's, like, some kind of manifested acid flashback or somethin'."

Vic spotted Eliot across the room and held up her five-pack of Pabst Blue Ribbon. In cans.

And smiled.

"Want one?" she mouthed.

Eliot made his way over. "One of these days, we've got to get you some decent beer."

He was not turning down that beer, though.

"Yeah well if my goal is to get drunk, who gives a shit what it tastes like," Vic said holding out a can.

"But some beers taste good and get you drunk." Eliot took the can and popped the top. "Admittedly, this stuff ain't the worst I've had."

That would be Thief Juice. Thank you, Hardison.

"Stop being a beer snob and get on my level," Vic said shaking her head and pulling out a ball point pen.

She stabbed the bottom of the can with a pen and covered the hole with her thumb. She then put her mouth around the hole and popped the top of the beer and proceeded to shotgun it.

When she finished she gave Eliot a big grin and offered him a new beer and the pen.

"You're takin' me right back to my army days," Eliot said. Not to be outdone, he took the beer and the pen.

He was not as good at this as Vic was.

"Now wouldn't it be a shame to waste good beer on this kind of activity?" Vic teased.

Eliot coughed a little. "Damn shame," he agreed. He wiped his mouth with the back of his arm. "I think I need a towel."

Vic laughed and reached out to pat a couple of spots with the cuff of her jacket. "Ready for another?"

"You," Navaan said, pointing. "We were gonna hook up after beating up the wood animals. And the hugging. Because you were the only one who was gonna let me hug naked."

"We were," Eliot agreed. "We should probably get on that."

A small part of Eliot's brain noted that the pollen was really affecting him pretty hard when his first reaction to her teeth was 'sexy!' and not 'what is she how do I bring her down?'.

Re: Arrive/Mingle

But why would he want to bring her down, when he could get her to go down so much easier? Though fighting worked as foreplay with Navaan (though, let's be real, everything worked as foreplay with Navaan), so if that was really how he wanted it to go, she could be accommodating.

Very accommodating. Extra accommodating.

"You could always get on me," Navaan offered, because when someone gave you an opening, you took it.

Yes, very dirty.

Fighting was definitely not not foreplay for Eliot. Just ask Mikel.

"If that's the way you prefer it, darlin'," he said, grinning. "I'm pretty easy."

Especially today.

And Mikel would just roll her eyes and say he'd never have gotten the cuffs on any other way.

"I prefer you getting off on me, too," Navaan said, cheerful. "And, what? Like there's some benefit in being difficult?"

She gave him a lascivious smile, waggling her eyebrows. "I hear there are benefits to being hard, though."
