Format: Any!
Warnings: Shouldn't be any but will adjust if needed

[Someone has been busy today. The kitchen and Distillery has been noisy and bustling, a departure from the much more quiet days when the illness was spreading through the Bastion and survival was once more on the uncertain scale of things. Somewhere around the time that the night cycle begins, when the sky is more of an orange-ish glow fading in to blue and purple, a large spread of food has been set up near the Distillery with glass lanterns hanging overhead.

Just like any other time there has been a feast be it random or planned, there is a wide selection of food on the covered, decorated tables. There's even meat this time! And yes, Aoi, your doughnuts have been transferred from your trees to a platter on the table. There's even a section for Paar, complete with massive amounts of bbq'd mammoth meat! You can thank Colin for that.

There's really no announcement for the feast, but chances are if you're outside at any point today you'll see the progress towards the set up, or smell the delicious scents wafting over the Bastion. (There might even be music playing, if Colin finds a way to provide it!)

Either way, come dusk food will be ready and mingling will be had!]

(ooc: Standard mingle log right here. Throw your threads up, poke other people's threads, and eat all the food!)

[Upon Rin's return to (semi-)active duty she would've found a new face helping in the kitchen, quiet and not particularly eager for conversation. Rob can make a few things, most of which are kind of generic and boring, and had mostly settled on making breakfast and bread and leaving the more complicated stuff to others, with the exception of several attempts at a cherry quick bread that could've turned out better due to not having the exact ingredients for the recipe he was used to. He was only too happy to let Rin take over, and with nothing else to do yet he'd agreed to help with setting up the feast, handling the breads, some cookies, eggs, and salads (though he didn't have the slightest idea how to make dressings). Through this interaction Rin would've discovered two things. First, Rob sucks at small talk and generates awkward silences like they're going out of style. Second, once he's claimed an area to work at he generates an aura of unwelcomeness whenever someone intrudes on that space. Of course, Rin has more ranks in Cooking and Baking than Rob and thus outranks him in the kitchen, but that doesn't stop him from claiming part of it while he works.

But with all that background info out of the way, Rob sees Rin sleeping and desperately wants to not have running this event fall to him. He also sees her tail just sitting there, its obvious fuzziness beckoning him. ...Touching it would be just like patting someone on the head, right?

[Rin noticed him, and was grateful for the help, but she also gave him his space as needed. Sure it was "her" kitchen in an unofficial sense but she wasn't so cruel as to kick people who had a modicum of cooking skill out. Especially after being flat on her back for so long. She's certainly not going to make a big deal out of a lack of small talk.

Now her tail being touched? That's another story entirely. But of course she hasn't gotten used to him well enough to determine just who is bothering her, so once he touches said tail she shifts and grumbles tiredly.]

Mng... Hikaru I swear to God if that's you you're gonna get slapped...

[dragonsorcsandwolves]

[Soft and fuzzy~ Oh wait, she's threatening violence to someone he'd better stop. She must be the kind of... cat... girl...? that doesn't like her tail touched.]

No, it's me.

[A low, hard to hear voice and someone she hardly knows makes that statement pretty useless.]

This is kinda your event. Are you going to sleep through it?

[hellpyre]

[... oh. Okay. She had been expecting Hikaru to bother her as he usually did but it wasn't him after all. That gets her to sit up with a yawn, fangs showing as she stretches and scratches at a pointy ear.]

Just restin'...

[dragonsorcsandwolves]

[...vampire cat girl? He has no idea; a demon would have a pointy red tail, wouldn't they?]

Looked more like sleeping.

[hellpyre]

[Not exactly, no.]

Sleepin', nappin'... whatever. I wasn't gonna stay out forever.
