She sat there in the booth, watching the ladies on the dance floor. All the single ladies, all the single ladies. Well, Rahne too. This whole being social thing was well and good amongst the Xavier Institute crowd, she knew them, and she'd had nearly two years to know them. As excited as she'd been to be invited here, the novelty had worn off when she came to the sudden realization that mingling would be tantamount. Couple that with a crippling shyness and general discontent around people, and the additional inability for liquor to have any sort of lasting or meaningful effect on her (in her past, she'd subscribed to it on a much more constant basis and thus, could maintain a perma-buzz, but with the advent of new ways of dealing with the pains of her mutation and now, the outright control she exerted over it, alcohol hadn't been in her system for close to two years), for a while, she'd been content to stay where they'd all originally arrived. But as much as she missed her home in the jungle, as much as she missed Kevin, it slowly dawned on her that sitting here in this grump-ass state was unfair to who this was really all about. And thus she vanished into the crowds. Five or ten minutes went by. Down on the dancefloor, Rahne had a blst with the others, and, by way of Lenny the Liquor Demon, made some confessions that, had she been there, Marrow would have busted up at in raucous laughter. But she was on a mission. She'd been missing from the party for maybe fifteen minutes when the thumping and crazy music cut out suddenly. A few people looked up to the DJ Booth. And there she was. "Uh... Hi." Don't chicken out now. "Uh... I'm here, and uh, my name is Sarah. And I'm here with a few friends because someone... well because one of us is getting married tomorrow to the guy of her dreams. And that's a big thing. Her name's Rahne, and she's right there." She pointed her finger to the wolf-lady. "And she means a lot more to me than she'll ever really know." She nodded. "And I don't really do this a lot and I can't really afford like, an actual present. So... this is sorta it. So, uh... she's not the only one to get belligerent, y'see." She looked behind her and, with a wince at just how unbelievably cornball she felt, she leapt down from the booth as the song started. "Tommy used to live on the dooocks." She belted into the little microphone, six kinds of tone death without a care of the world. "Union's been on strike, it's so tough." She wormed through the crowd, towards her friends, flailing about in her best attempt at a dance. "Gina works the diner all daaay, workin' for the man, she brings home her pay for love, all for love!" She hopped to in front of the gathered Xavierians and continued, smiling big. "She said we gotta HOLD ON to WHAT WE GOT!" She bumped her side against Rahnes. "IT DOESN'T MAKE A DIFFERENCE IF WE MAKE IT OR NOT!" She pointed around to Kitty, to Avery, to Storm, and Amara. "We got eachother, and that's a lot for loooove. We'll give it a SHOT!" Then the whole place erupted. "WHOOOOOAH WE'RE HALFWAY THERE!" The place burst in unison. "LIVIN' ON A PRAYER!" As the song continued, she drooped her hand to her side and gave the very drunken Rahne a solid hug as the song continued to belt through both crowd and sound system. |

The night had been kind to her and she was enjoying it immensely. It was almost sad that it took some sort of celebration to get the crew all out and together to let loose. She guess things just became overwhelming as it was always one thing after another in the lives they lived and their moments of peace were ever so brief. They should be getting out like this all the time, for like dancing or out to the movies. Or maybe she was the problem, perhaps it was her that needed to get out more often. Yes, she needed to do more of this…letting loose and letting herself have a bit of fun. There was no reason to feel guilty about that, was there? Drink after drink went down and she attempted to rotate in a water now and again, to keep herself from getting stupid drunk, but already on the other side of tipsy she tended to forget. A permanent smile was stuck to her face and her minty cheeks held a pink flush from the alcohol. Sitting in the booth she managed to keep from heading down the 'woo girl' or 'girls gone wild' path that plagued many a drunken female. Just bobbing in her seat or singing a lyric or two as she listened to the girls converse, nibbling on bowl of mix nuts that she probably wouldn't have touched had she been sober. Bare feet dangled just barely above the floor, only one discarded shoe below them and vaguely she considered looking for its partner when Rahne began to speak of sex. Violet eyes snapped wider than they've been all night with the very out of character moment. She nearly spat her drink but instead a loud snort came before accompanied by an eruption of loud laughter as the nurse tossed her head back…and soon tipped over. CLUNK! Onto the floor she went still laughing, hand reaching up to grip the table and pull herself up as she sputtered between laugh and catching her breath. Like Kitty she wished she had caught the moment, but it certainly would be forever remembered between the women. "Sweet baby Jesus, Rahne!" She gasped again through her giggles. "Talk 'bout left field dere." Avery exclaimed, flicking hunter curls from her eyes as she pulled herself back into the booth. Not a fraction as bd as Rahne, Avery's accent tended to return to her as if she stepped right off the island moments of drunkeness and anger when she forgot herself. It was something unique, as was isle she reigned from but the particular coast she was born was settled by the Irish and so added a bit of celtic charm to her accent. However, the more time she spent in the US the more her accent became very American and so it was rare to hear her old self come out so strongly. "I'm gonna bring back yer weddin' gift an' talk to Jack 'bout what ya really needs." She winked over to her canine friend. "Ah good, hard spankin'" Shrugging to herself, though she knew of Rahne's religious background, she added. "I don' see why makin' love should make ya feel guilty. S'long as the two love each other, its a beautiful ting." It was shortly after this that the music took a shift and went to something a little more told school and Avery suddenly perked up in her seat. Growing almost excited as if it was her favourite song, she grinned and exclaimed "Yes!! Bon Jovi!" She began sing along with the waa waa of the guitar until she realized that a female voice was nothing like any cover she had heard before. Her elf like ears almost tweaked and her mouth dropped before broadening into a grin once more. She kneaded up in the booth prompting her hands up on the table to get a better look, before one hand slammed hard on the table as her suspicion was confirmed. "HOLY SHIT IT'S MARROW!!!" She yelled. The cupping a hand to the side of her mouth and screaming as she drew closer, encouring. "Woooo! Marrow!!" It didn't matter what she sounded like, it was the spirit she invoked in the group and the crowd. The club loudly roared the song all in unison and Avery swayed with the music. This was the way things should be, mutants singing and carrying on like everyday people. Her hand lifted in the air and swayed back and forth and instead of holding a lighter she let her powers corse through her fingertips, causing them to shimmer and drip with molts of white light. Singing instead loudly the harmony part, she smiled and winked to Marrow as she looked to her. "You totally should do some Journey next," She prodded knowing that Marrow would probably never do something like this ever again. "Journey. Tink about it." She then rose and tossed her purse over her shoulder, a cigarette suddenly between fingers. "Smoke break!" She announced for anyone that wanted to join her and so trotted off barefooted, with a slight sway, towards the exit. |

"What? No! No, Kitty, no, no... no cameras, come onnnnn," Rahne said, her head shaking from side to side in a bit of a sloppy motion. "I'm absolutely... I'm really... I am very blootered..." Her eyes rolled over towards Ororo and Avery, a half-strength smirk on her face. "I hear muhself jus' fine... I just... I always hold it in and... I'm nae feelin' so in… inhhh… in-holding… right now..." It was a novel sensation, to be intoxicated. She felt almost as if her mind was swimming through tapioca, and she was sure to be suffering for it later, but as of now, she was feeling good. "Oooh, we should get some more o' those chicken wings, they were absolu-" she stopped short as the music cut out, and a voice came over the speakers. Confusion struck her. Was that supposed to happen? Was something wrong? Was their little party about to be interrupted by some would-be super villain looking to disrupt a pleasant evening? "Is that...?" Rahne asked, confused at first. No. It couldn't be. She would never... Her eyes went wide as the source of the voice got closer, microphone clutched in her pink hand. Sarah was never much one for directly saying how she felt. Much less in public like this. If it wasn't for all the noise, Rahne was sure she would be able to hear her friend's heart pounding its way out of her chest. But no, there was just the singing. The loud, raucous singing, joyous and energetic. It was cacophonic, it was chaotic, and slightly off-key. But it was one of the most beautiful sounds Rahne had ever heard, partially because of the sentiment behind it, partially because she was drunk enough to Sarah came up to Rahne and bumped into her side, draping an arm over her shoulders, embracing her in a hug, Rahne met it, wrapping her arms around Sarah’s waist and leaning heavily into her side. She tried to keep up with the song, echoing the words a half step behind since she didn’t actually know the words… or the tune. This was it, really. This was what life was about, when it came down to it all. It was about love, it was about companionship. She had her friends, she had the love of her life, she had her surrogate family. And there were no aliens invading, no extra dimensional monsters to defeat, no ancient pharaohs to save the world from. There was just friendship and love and that meant that life was good. |

Kitty tried poking fun at Rahne insisting on catching her candid comments on video as Rahne was still sane enough to know that was not a good idea and she wouldn't want the embarrassing remarks plastered all over the internet. As she explained her words and actions admitting the alcohol was disabling her inhibitions to keep her thoughts inward. But the longer the girls sat around the table the effects of the alcohol began taking over as the night continued to progress even the small amount of alcohol Kitty had already consumed was starting to take its hold on her. However unlike the others who were seemingly getting more energized by the drinks as the night went on. The Drinks seemed to be having an adverse effect on Kitty as she was beginning to fade fast. While the girls continued to sit at the table talking and listening to the drunken Rahne, Marrow quickly left and headed out over towards the DJ and began singing with her own brand of Karaoke the shock and awe of Marrow breaking out of her shell and singing and dancing around for Rahne and the rest of the girls sparked Kitty to stay awake for a few more moments of glory as she joined in with the singing as did most of the bar. But once the song was over and Marrow hugged Rahne and the rush of excitement was gone, Kitty really began feeling light headed and than started to stumble over herself the alcohol the light weight had consumed earlier was finally catching up to her Kitty shuffled her way back off the dance floor over to the table. As Kitty sloppily cleared a spot at the table to rest her head for a minute she smelt the pieces of spare food on the table and lifted her head which now felt like it weighted 500 pounds enough to cram a nacho or 2 in her mouth before resting her head back down on the table and letting out a moan. Kitty wanted to pull herself up off the table and join Rahne and the others and not be the wet blanket of the bunch. But Kitty could probably count the number of times she actually consumed any amount of alcohol on 1 hand and just had no tolerance for the stuff and now found herself unable to hang with the rest of the girls as the night continued to rage on. She hoped taking the quick breather would revive her enough to give her a second wind as a new song began to play that she liked she forced her arm up in the air and let out a “Woooooo” of excitement before her hand came crashing back down to the table knocking over a drink. |
