holiday party post

Aphrodite's New York loft is done up to the nines.

The first good look as one enters is of twinkling Manhattan through the big windows, lights bright against a dark winter sky. The windows take up most of two walls; the rest of the space is largely empty, the star of the show a glowingly polished hardwood floor perfect for dancing.

There's a cluster of low-slung couches and chairs at one end of the room, velvet and leather and very inviting. They're situated by the fireplace, which lends them a cozy glow-- though it isn't cold anywhere in here, despite the windows.

Aphrodite is very proud of a few things about tonight:

1) The music, which spans a decent range of time periods and tempos, and will be playing for most of the evening.
2) The decorations, understated but quite lovely: softly glowing lights, silver and gold ribbons wound around columns and draped from the ceiling ... the occasional strategically placed bit of mistletoe.
3) Her dress.

And yes, darlings, there is a very well stocked bar and counter full of snacks.

That's what happens when you enlist the Three Graces to help you plan your shindigs.

"I'll grab you a couple of Mikey's funny brownies if you want 'em." That's the best she can do with no cash. At this point she just gives him a very loud, very obnoxious whistle, because he's earned a bit of praise.

"Funny brownies? Shit, I'll get some on my own."

Just go with it, the narration really wants to get him high.

Whistling's good! Voodoo likes whistling very much. It feeds his ego.

"Tell me, Miss 'I-Did-This-For-A-Living-For-Five-Years' - ever do anything like this?" Voodoo asks, transitioning to a Dangerous Bird.

"They're pretty damn good - not as good as my own, but pretty good." She likes Mike, but she needs to hook him up with one of her suppliers. Clem hows her appreciation, but once he's back to a standing position, she says, "once or twice."

Voodoo scoffs as he stretches. "'Once or twice'. I'll believe it when I see it," Voodoo says, stepping aside and gesturing to the pole.

(You have been challenged, Clementine.)

Oh, it is SO on, Voodoo!

"Give a girl a little space," she requests, bumping and grinding her way toward the pole.
