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.

He shakes his head and walks off. "Forget it. I'm sleepin' this shit off."
Re: Food and Drink
"You'd be better off booting, you want my honest opinion. You try to sleep through this? You'll wake up and not be able to tell what's real and what isn't."

"That...that would be an extraordinarily bad idea, Ray. Of the Cats and dogs living together, mass hysteria, tell him about the Twinkie levels of bad."

With that, he melds into the crowd, making his way toward the liquor tables.
Run while you still can, Mike.

"Oh man, he's going to hit the Quasar Wall and not know what hit him, or like...try to fly.
WHAT EVER YOU DO, DON'T TRY TO FLY," he yells over the din in the direction Voodoo disappeared in.
"I'll see him. It'll be okay. He'll be okay. He's a big guy. I'll just...keep an eye on the door just in case."
