[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!)

[Anya is also looking for the booze. It is an important element of parties.

Sadly she hasn't found it yet, but she does bump into an unexpectedly familiar face.]

Hey! When did you get here?

[beauchevalier]

[... Who is this woman and how does she know him? Was he drunk or something?]

Sorry, but how do you know me? Have we met before?

[dontyoujustwish]

Yes, we have.

[Hang on a second. She's run into this problem before.]

Unless you have a twin brother like that other attractive white-haired man. Is that a thing?

[beauchevalier]

I don't have a twin brother, only an older brother who looks nothing like me. And by the way, my hair is silver not white.

[He sounds a bit soured by that.]

Regardless, I'm sorry but I don't ever remember meeting you.

[dontyoujustwish]

Oh, yes, I remember your brother. He was some kind of priest? And not much fun.

[Why is he so put out by a beautiful woman recognizing him? It's totally a pick-up technique that men use, he has no right to be offended by it, especially when she's being honest.]

Well, I thought it was memorable enough. I rescued you from a vampire queen and then you rewarded me with sex.

[beauchevalier]

[He's not so much offended, but baffled. You'd think he'd remember all of this, but he can't. Even if for some reason he does have a sense of familiarity being around this woman and can't shake as to why.]

You'd think I'd remember that myself, but I seriously have no recollection of what you're talking about. So either you're insane or I was so drunk that I remember none of this.

[dontyoujustwish]

You didn't taste like alcohol at the time.

You really don't remember? My hair was more blonde then.

[beauchevalier]

I really don't remember whatever this moment you're speaking about is. But maybe if you tell me more, I might be able to remember.

[dontyoujustwish]

[Anya folds her arms.]

Well, now I don't know that I want to, if you just forget your sexual partners like that.

[beauchevalier]

Well darling, if you're not going to help me then I can't exactly remember our time together. For all you know, I could be suffering from severe amnesia right now and you're the only hope to cure me.

[dontyoujustwish]

[Anya is skeptical about the curing part because that is pretty far from her specialty, but he does bring up a point. Amnesia can happen.]

What's the last thing you do remember?

[beauchevalier]

[It takes him a few minutes to try recalling, but he does.]

I remember heading home after a wedding then from there... Nothing.

[dontyoujustwish]

[Were there any weddings in Vatheon?]

Are you talking about your home dimension?

[beauchevalier]

Uh yes? Why do you ask?

[dontyoujustwish]

So you don't remember anything about being abducted by scientists and living in a city beneath the ocean?

[beauchevalier]

Living in a city beneath the ocean? That sounds fascinating to say the least. But you'd be correct, nothing rings a bell.

[dontyoujustwish]

Hmm...

Maybe they did manage to wipe your memory. They did do all sorts of mind- and body-altering experiments.

[beauchevalier]

If these people are as terrible as they sound, then perhaps they did.

[dontyoujustwish]

They put me in the body of a pubescent boy once. It was horrible.

I suppose I'll give you the benefit of the doubt. I'm Anya.
