[open] december will be magic again

Who: everyone!
When: the evening of D15
Where: A small meeting hall on the moon, close to the portal to the carnival
What: a whole bunch of show-offs meet up to show off their magic, people interested in magic come to learn about said magic, and other people show up to see if something inevitably gets set on fire. (aka mage club)
Warnings: none so far, will edit if needed.

The meeting hall is a large open space, with hardwood floors and a rustic decor. A few chairs and tables are scattered around, though there aren't enough for the amount of people who'll hopefully show up. Some food has been set out: mostly finger foods (tiny sandwiches, fruit, veggies & dip) though there are some savory options and plenty of home-baked cookies, courtesy of Rin. Drink wise, there's water, hot chocolate, hot tea, and a few bottles of wine because tipsy magic sounds like an awesome idea and this is what happens when the alcoholic makes the dinner menu. Aside from the food table and the few tables, there's not much of anything in the room: plenty of open space for showing off or getting out of the way of someone who wants to show off.

One of the doors of the meeting hall leads to the outside. There's a wider, 'backyard' sort of area with plenty of room for people to cast magic as large and impressive as they want. A fire pit stands outside also for warming your hands and other fire-based magic. Please don't set the building on fire.

This is all very informal. If pressed for details, Strange would have told anyone to just come whenever, stay as long as you like, and so on and so forth. The emphasis is on learning about each other's magic, displaying one's skills and talents, and helping anyone who wished to learn magic decide on a path for them to take.

Showing off is just a given.

( ooc: This is an open mingle log! Feel free to make your own top-levels & tag around! )

"So you are involved." There's no surprise in her voice. Rita already suspected as much, and Lavellan merely confirmed it. She doesn't press further, however. If Lavellan's framing of this situation is accurate, then it seems she at least has some intention to stop the worst case scenario from happening. Rita feels no need to argue with her, at least.

"That's enough for now, I think," Rita decides, rising from her seat and glancing over her shoulder at a clock. They ended up talking for a while. "...I wouldn't mind continuing this some other time, though," she adds, though her gaze drifts away, not meeting Lavellan's eyes. She appreciates the woman taking the time to discuss spirits and magic to such an extent, though she hesitates to express it and tries to maintain some sense of aloofness.
dirthena: (right yeah that sounds great)

A sad, small smile as she nods. Yes, and she cannot help but be involved, and perhaps more than Rita thinks. But she nods her thanks anyway, and lets the other go freely.

"Of course. I'll be easy to find, no doubt." And she stands as well, giving her a slight nod of her head before making her own way through the crowd. There are a lot of other mages to question, after all.
