[Open - Communal] Meet 'n' Greet!

WHO: Anyone! Hosted by Wing, Vectorians especially encouraged.
WHERE: One of the larger upper platforms in Vector Prime's Quadrant.
WHEN: Now
WHAT: Mixer for Vectorians and general social gathering for everyone.
WARNINGS: None yet. (But there's booze so...at the very least there might be bad karaoke)

Upon entering Vector Prime's domain it's obvious that things are a foot. The typically serene atmosphere is enlivened with notes of music and the murmur of voices punctuated by the occasional bubble of laughter that filters down from the upper heights, a soft glow of illuminating one of the larger platforms with a structure built on it. Colorful streamers fly from crystalline light poles, marking the way through the various crystal bridges and small platforms, until one reaches the large terrace on which the gathering is situated.

A large pavilion-like structure, enclosed on two sides but otherwise open to a majestic view of the gorge and beyond, shelters the bulk of the gathering. Its roof is several stories tall, enough to accommodate their First Forged benefactor should he choose to join them, and what could be considered a dance floor sprawls off to the side. The platform edges have been lined with a railing here unlike most of the others, to waylay any highgrade assisted trips into the gorge itself. Along another wall, nearest the open area, speakers and other equipment have been setup to provide music and other entertainment. One of Vector Prime's Acolytes greets newcomers with a simple nod, and may later be seen looking after the replenishent of refreshments as needed.

Tables of typical Cybertronian height line one wall, where tapped cylinders of softly glowing energon, both standard and highgrade, sit alongside cubes waiting to be filled. Various pieces of make-shift seating suitable to the average mech are scattered around. Central to the pavilion is a wide raised platform, about waist height to the average Cybertronian, designed to allow the shorter attendees to converse with their taller robotic fellows at eye level. Human scale ladders allow access to and from the floor, and occupying the platform is a buffet table accompanied by several mis-matched chairs.

The buffet table is covered with an eclectic assortment of refreshments and serving implements more suitable to organics, mostly non-perishable pantry type goods, (you can be certain there's Twinkies!) along with a odd collection of various alcohols including a bottle or two of whiskey. At the end of one table sits an old refrigerator on its back, now tasked with being a simple ice box, filled entirely with chunks of clean snow and ice from Liege Maximo's quadrant. Accompanying it are wax paper cups and a pitcher of fruity syrup that smells reminiscent of Kool-Aid. (make yourself a snow cone!)

The pavilion is attached to a larger building, two doors at the rear of the pavilion each lead to two separate rooms. One that appears to be in use for the storage of unused supplies and materials while the other is filled with makeshift seating of various sizes, creating a more relaxed atmosphere. To the rear there is access to a second floor, the rooms of which appear to be currently unused.

Barricade and Soundwave have agreed to provide musical entertainment for the evening.

Miko may play some guitar for us if we can find a way to power her amp.

Wing will perform a traditional narrative sword kata with some musical accompaniment.

Vector Prime himself may make an appearance at some point as well.

((If you'd like to do a game, performance or other activity feel free to make a post for it and let me know, then I'll highlight it here.))

((I tried to set a foundation for the scene but leave a lot of stuff open, so feel free to embellish where you like. We have access to pretty much anything that's mundane though likely it comes from the Junk Pile. Feel free to have your character bring something if they want.))

A newcommer! That red color was nice and Blurr could see the door wings which meant the new visitor was most likely not a Decepticon. Not like those weren't allowed here now too but they should be approached more cautiously. Blurr is next to Mirage in nanoclicks, smiling.

"Hi, Welcome to the party."
perfavore: (What next?)

[personal profile] perfavore 2012-08-01 12:14 am (UTC)(link)
Whoa where did you come from. Mirage's blue optics widen in surprise at the SUDDEN BOT near him. He can't say he's seen anyone like you before...maybe Jolt, but Jolt was often more shy than that.

"Ah...buongiorno..."

He gives a gracious bow, as he doesn't really seem to think this one is a Decepticon. The greeting gave him the tip off.
raceme: (Oh hai)

[personal profile] raceme 2012-08-01 10:59 pm (UTC)(link)
He's a very fast bot, blink and you'll miss him.

"That sounds lovely. What does it mean?"

The red Autobot Elite Guard insignia in the middle of Blurr's chest probably gives him away as a non Decepticon affiliate too.
perfavore: (Oh no you didn't)

[personal profile] perfavore 2012-08-03 11:09 pm (UTC)(link)
Someone was interested in Italian culture? Well colour him surprised. His wings perk up slightly as he tilts his head.

"It means 'hello'. Simple, yet beautiful."
raceme: (I'm the fastest bot alive)

Blurr enjoys leaning new dialects so he can confuse people with his talking in more languages.

"I've never heard of something like that before, it's really nice. What language is that one?"
perfavore: (Andiamo!!)

[personal profile] perfavore 2012-08-04 03:48 pm (UTC)(link)
There's a slight chuckle. This was certainly new. Sideswipe often mocked him for his Italian verbage, and Bumblebee could hardly even speak back half the time.

"It is Italian, mio amico~. A romantic language I've come to be quite fond of."
raceme: (Smile - calmly pleased)

[personal profile] raceme 2012-08-05 01:17 am (UTC)(link)
None of them were curious secret agents. Learning new languages is key in his line of work.

"Italian...from Italy, like EARTH Italy?I never been there but when I was in Detroit I saw a few lovely Italian cars around." An oh boy, weren't those nice.
perfavore: (He's in a bad mood.)

[personal profile] perfavore 2012-08-06 07:04 am (UTC)(link)
"Yes. It is where I first landed on Earth. It is a beautiful country. I am quite fond of Venezia myself."
raceme: (Elite Guard)

[personal profile] raceme 2012-08-06 07:11 pm (UTC)(link)
"A beautiful country for a beautiful mech then. You are an Autobot?" Because no Decepticon will call any part of Earth beautiful, Blurr can know that even when he's drunk. "My name is Blurr, excuse my manners."
perfavore: (Bene.)

[personal profile] perfavore 2012-08-06 10:25 pm (UTC)(link)
Beautiful? That was rather forward. If he didn't know any better he'd think this was Sideswipe...or more recently, Barricade. Was he really that much of a knockout?

"Yes, I am an Autobot. You may call me Mirage~"

He gives a slight bow to the mech, being as courteous as he can be.
raceme: (I haven't cried this much since ToyStory)

[personal profile] raceme 2012-08-07 12:53 am (UTC)(link)
Barricades was around, if Mirage mentioned him Blurr would point him to the direction of the Ex-Decpticon. Too bad he had no idea what was going on the other autobot's processor. It was provably for the better.

"Mirage...nice. Any reason why you got that name?" Blurr looks pleasantly surprised. "oh..ah..thanks."
perfavore: (Andiamo!!)

[personal profile] perfavore 2012-08-07 01:11 am (UTC)(link)
Oh? Someone was curious on that, were they? Well, he wasn't about to be rude and hide the secret. So he merely chuckles--

and soon, there is no Mirage in sight.
raceme: (OH MY GOD)

[personal profile] raceme 2012-08-08 10:49 pm (UTC)(link)
"What...." Oh so that's it. "Neat."
perfavore: (What next?)

[personal profile] perfavore 2012-08-09 03:30 am (UTC)(link)
That's not the end of the little trick show, either. Mirage reappears, but soon...there's another. And another. And another.

Until there were ten.
raceme: (Backing the fuck away....)

[personal profile] raceme 2012-08-09 06:51 pm (UTC)(link)
Infinite Mirages. Now that would come in handy for many...things.

"All of you are made of matter?"
perfavore: (What next?)

[personal profile] perfavore 2012-08-10 10:00 pm (UTC)(link)
As if on cue, they all dissipate, leaving the only original left.

"They can be hit, but they will disappear if struck."
