one night of magic rush

WHO: Cain, Prompto, Hideki Maeda, and you!
WHERE: The popular Asylum club.
WHEN: Night of October 26.
WHAT: Cain and Prompto's joint birthdays!
NOTES OR WARNINGS: Beyond drinking/smoking, general wild party behavior, and fake friendship, there shouldn't be much. Will update as needed.


[Set deep in the downtown of New Amsterdam's entertainment district is Asylum, arguably the most popular club in the city. The exterior is cool steel beams and tasteful futuristic architecture with a long line down the corridor, suited bouncers posed at the entrance all armed with a virtual guest list. Its interior is fashioned with bright, colorful lighting dynamic to the music of the infamous DJ Semicolon, high ceilings and acoustic sounds to lend that feeling of a constant full-body hum. Any partygoers on the guest list for this event will be funneled toward the VIP section. They will have received an invitation a few days prior via their Cooltalk profiles. Jason is specifically blacklisted, sorry buddy.

DANCE YOUR HEART OUT. Nearly impossible to book without deep pockets or wide-reaching connections, Semicolon is at the top of their game mixing popular contemporary hits with Whitney Houston's classics. From song to song, Semicolon provides a unique and talented contrast of the slow to the energetic, so no matter your dancing style, you'll find something to move you on the dance floor.

DROWN YOUR... LIVER. Courtesy of the party's host, Hideki Maeda, the VIP section's private bar will provide an ever-flowing river of your favorite expensive high-proof alcohol. Pick your poison.

CHILL OUT. Tired on your feet from too much dancing, or just need a break from the packed atmosphere? There are plenty of comfortable areas where you can relax and take it easy until you're ready to get back out there. The lights around this area cycle through different colors in reflection of Semicolon's performance set, so a slower song might lend toward romantic shades of red while a faster-paced song is brighter blue.

SMOKE, EAT & MINGLE. Asylum will be serving real, fresh meat at this party, so enjoy that luxury while it lasts. There is also an outdoor area with a beautiful view over the city itself if you want to take your vape pen out there for a smoke, just get some air, or see who's around for a chat.]

Twice a week?

[Abel stares, openly and wide-eyed, at Angel. Wherever she came from, it's too hideous for Abel to even consider. He signals to the bartender too for another Moscow Mule. That's the only thing that's going to help him process this.]

If you're asking if I think Cain would air-lock me, I'm happy to report he's only threatened to throw my computer in it when I've worked late.

That's corporate culture for you.

[ Able's reaction to this information isn't great, regardless of how used to it she is, it'd probably do her some good to keep in mind most others came from more diplomatic environments. Their companies probably had workers right, unions even.

She raises her hands in front of her at Able's next remark, placating. ]


What? No, no that isn't what I was suggesting...though I'm relieved to hear Cain isn't the type. Just because it was a common occurrence does not mean I thought it was the right course of action.

What I meant was that if Cain has even a fraction of feelings you seem to have for him, then I don't think that the timing of your gift will really matter. I know it's un-ideal, but he will recognize the care you've put into it.

My fa- erm, former employer was a man of grandiose gestures, you know. He gave his last girlfriend an entire town, once. But I know she enjoyed the smaller, more personalized gifts more.

[God. If that's 'corporate culture', Abel's happy to be working in the public sector. Well. Sort of, at this point.]

[But despite how truly bizarre some of the things Angel describes are though, the sentiments are the same. This is the city Hideki built for Cain, full of flashing lights and booze and endless music. The thing Abel has built isn't real, but he's put his heart into it. Maybe that makes it real enough.]


I'd give him a town if I could, if I thought he'd want it. [He smiles and pulls his drink over as the bartender sets it in front of him.] Maybe the difference is that I know he wouldn't.
