just gotta ignite the light and let it shine

Who: Everyone who's stupid enough to show up for this, because legal drinking ages are for people from a different century/planet.
When: Afternoon/Evening, Day 30
Where: Lakeshore
What: Local Carnival workers get wasted and set off fireworks by the lake.
Warnings: Carnival shenanigans, ie. booze, drugs, and people getting set on fire probably. Put any tag-specific warnings in your headers!

So, Wismuth happened.

Lambert's pretty willing to bet a good chunk of the Carnival is pretty happy to act like Wismuth didn't happen, but he also doesn't really care about what sorrows people are drowning or not tonight: he knows he needed this drink, and after he'd slept off the immediate exhaustion that came with running around Wismuth for nearly two weeks with the power of Creation more or less constantly burning through him, he's ready to something, anything to feel like himself again.

Fast-forward to the lakeshore. There's a huge bonfire going, a box of assorted fireworks that's been 'liberated' from wherever the hell engineering keeps their supplies, and probably a crate of wine that's going to disappear sooner rather than later. Anything else, someone's going to have to bring themselves.

"Auh..." ....Come to think Lavellan didn't exactly look the picture of someone who had walked out of the year 2000, did she. He coughs.

"Auh-Y-Yes..! In the country which I, the man Gongenzaka, hail from, the age is 21; I, the man Gongenzaka, am merely 14 however...it will be some time before I have alcohol outside of medicinal purposes..!"

They do not SPEAK of the Moon and its...Cure.

he absolutely got super drunk and huggy

Fourteen. Creators help her, she's surrounded by children. Still, she smiles back up at him -- grateful for the clarification. "And your government can regulate that? It's a far cry from my world --" for she doubts very much that Gongenzaka comes from Thedas. "They have a hard time agreeing to do anything at all, let alone making sure teenagers aren't drinking."

And, as she contemplates this-- "Do your laws apply here?" You know, just in case he wanted to.
betheman: (oh god what)

"Ahh...certainly not perfectly, but those who serve alcohol and sell it certainly enforce the matter-more than that, it is a different rule within the household..."

Ah, but he trails off, sheepishly frowning. "N...no."

...

"But to take advantage of such a matter, would be unforgivable..!!" he insists after, face bright red.

She laughs at that, not cruelly, and holds out her hand to show she won't push the matter any. "Such self control is commendable. I won't try to encourage you to break laws that may or may not exist if that's not what you wish." Just a reminder that if he wanted to, he wouldn't have to abide by any of them.

"AUH-!" Oh! What a pleasant surprise of a compliment-and offer, for that matter. To that, he bows his head immediately. "I, the man Gongenzaka, thank you for that then..! It is much appreciated!" Most just tell him he's being silly. And dumb.

And also 'have a drink anyway'. "At the very least," he notes, beaming quite openly, "The juice available for alternative, is quite good!"

Lavellan didn't get to be leader of a paramilitary organization by encouraging people to make bad life choices. Well. Only when they came to her first wanting to solve a problem.

But she smiles at him all the same, and peers at the glass he has in his hand. "I don't know what I was expecting when I signed on, but it certainly wasn't anything like what it's been." Good juice and food included. Reminded of their earlier conversation, Lavellan grins at him -- showing off her two sharpened canines. "Turns out it wasn't pointed ears after all."

"Aaah-truthfully, when I, the man Gongenzaka, think that I am beginning to understand a routine here, it would seem something 'differen't arises in the face of it," he laughs, scratching his cheek.

Aaah, but that's something- he blinks, eyebrows raising considerably. "HMM!! Teeth! Hopefully not too much of an increased bite, alongside, then..!" he observes, nodding. Biting one's tongue with New Sharp Teeth sucks.
dirthena: (i think i did ok)

"So be prepared to be surprised. Got it," she says, light hearted. She's trying -- Wismuth was not exactly a fun memory. But now that she'd gotten over and done with it, perhaps she'd find herself in less trouble as her year went on. But she nods at the statement. "So far? No, thankfully. I kept cutting my tongue on them in the first few hours, but I think I've gotten mostly used to them by now."
betheman: (uwu)

[personal profile] betheman 2018-03-29 01:38 pm (UTC)(link)
"As well prepared as one can be, for a surprise of course..!" Gongenzaka laughs. As it is, he nods-tongue cuts sound about typical, after all. "Mm, that makes sense...I, the man Gongenzaka, would offer further advice...but if you feel you are already adapted to them, it would not have much use by this time-they do not seem much larger at least, so adjusting quickly is at least a little expected..." If it was a set of protruding fangs, it'd definitely be a lot trickier than just dealing with sharpness after all-one hopes no one would have to deal with that, however.
dirthena: (this seems like a terrible idea)

"For a surprise, yes," Lavellan agrees. "I don't think this place could attempt to surprise me as much as back home, but I'll give it credit -- it certainly tried." It would have to take a lot -- after all, by the time she arrived at the Carnival she'd found out that her entire faith was a lie, that her lover was not only a figure remembered as a god but aiming to destroy her world, given up on her job, and knew that she could never return home again.

So far, the Carnival hasn't completely done something to challenge that. But looking at him, her lips twitch up. "Like yours? That couldn't have been an easy change--" Or any of it, honestly.
betheman: (o3o)

There is little to do beyond laugh quietly at such a comment about surprises-his own world may have been fairly peaceful in comparison to others, but it didn't mean he couldn't take a guess at the variety of Other realms and what they could entail.

He pauses, finding himself pointing to his teeth for a moment-as if unsure they're what she's talking about. (He's quite sure however) "Mn! Indeed, you would be correct...even initially, they cut somewhat beyond my lips! It meant adjusting how chewing and eating happened quite a lot..."
