[Written in his cell phone, Arthur broke his period of silence as innocently as one ever could. He was seated on a big cushy chair in front of his cell, which was leaned on a table in front of him.]

I'm between job applications and my hand's crampin' up as a result. Anyone want to hang out, tonight? I managed to pass for 21 at the package store last night, so, y'know--

[He stared dumbly at the screen, realizing he said this aloud and where folks could seriously hear him and remember.]

We got a bunch of stuff. Er, y'know... Dependin' on what anybody'd like to play, right? Emi's house is mostly empty so it wouldn't be a big deal if we were a little loud, y'know?

(OOC: This is a prompt prep for an IC gamenight! Details will be provided if your muse is interested!)

HANGING OUT, you say?

[Video]

[knights_king]

[oh god he was just there out of nowhere]

Woah. Hey, man. Yeah, I mean--right now it's pretty quiet and peaceful, so it'd be a good time, right?

[Happy Birthday to me...]

[Video]

[italktofish]

[Like a really loud, large orange ninja who likes dressing up as Elvis.]

ANY time is a GOOD TIME to have OUTRAGEOUS FUN!

[He laughs.]

And I have A COUPLE OF DAYS OFF! Are you STILL IN LOCKE?

[Video]

[knights_king]

Yeah, still in Locke. I mean, we sneak around once in awhile just 'cause, but not right now.

[Since, well, the mafia was mostly dead and no one was after them--for now.]

You a drinker, big guy?

[Video] 1/2

[italktofish]

Am I a DRINKER?

[And Arthur just laughs. So much laughter. So much outrageous laughter. He's laughing for at least a solid two minutes.]

[Action]

[scarlet_devil]

[And before long, a certain pretty vampire decides to join him, and of course decides to sit on his lap, giving the network the sort of smile that says 'He's mine!']

A little loudness never caused us problems before... Anyway, are we having our little social night?

[Action]

[knights_king]

[Turning red, Arthur closed his arms around Emilia in response and tried to hide himself a little.]

C'mon, let's... y'know, keep me humble.

[He added, finally realizing she asked him something--]

Oh. Oh, yeah, I hope we have some people wanna show up. I feel like I'm pretty boring.

[Action]

[scarlet_devil]

[She giggles, and simply decides to relax in his arms...]

Perhaps they're busy with a few things and will be here eventually...? Still, you always have me.

[Action]

[knights_king]

I do, but you and Dani keep kicking my ass at every game we touch.

[He might have sounded just a little drained--]

I need to see if I'm just that bad or if you're just way too good at these.

[Video]

[prismaticdestruction]

[She'll be good and NOT ask about the 21 part.]

Play? Play what?

[Video]

[knights_king]

Oh, some... games.

[Luckily, Monopoly was around, but with Cards Against Humanity lying around and that D&D manual....]

[Video]

[prismaticdestruction]

Oh..Can I join or is this one of those adult type things?

[Video]

[knights_king]

...So-so. [Fortunately, he was sure CaH would be so far beyond Dani's point of curiosity that it wouldn't be an issue.]

[video]

[moreweaponsthanyou]

I'm up for it, especially if you have beer. Or I can bring my own drinks.

[video]

[knights_king]

The more the merrier! People and drinks, that is.

Where you headed from, pal?

[video]

[moreweaponsthanyou]

I'm mostly in Vegas these days but I make regular trips back to Locke.

[video]

[knights_king]

Oh, really? You got family around here?

[Because--who visited for fun???]

[video]

[stefanged]

I could swing by for a bit. [Hesitant pause] I don't drink, though, if that's okay.

[video]

[knights_king]

No worries, there. We've got non-drinkers, so that's not somethin' we'd bug you about.

[video]

[stefanged]

Thanks. [He doesn't even bother to hide his relief.] What kind of games are we talking? I left most of mine at school, but I've got playing cards, Uno... and I think Battleship.

[He'd have to check, because that's his college roommate's. Not that his roommate would actually notice if it went missing for a night.]

[video]

[knights_king]

Cards'd be safer. [Watch Arthur mold words into messes--]

Well, less messy. Plus, more people could play if it's cards.

[Video]

[goldenflames]

Why the heck not, sounds like fun. And it looks like the company's looking pretty good from where I'm sitting...

[Yelena, no, he's taken.]

[Video]

[knights_king]

[He turned red, pointedly not looking at Emi--]

I mean, sure, but--we haven't met, have we?

[Video]

[goldenflames]

[Okay, okay... She'll stop. She'd hate to tick of Emi too much. Seeing as she's her cousin's friend and all.]

Well... Come to think of it, weren't you at that Halloween party?

[Video]

[knights_king]

Halloween party?

[Oh, right. The free alcohol and dress up party. He couldn't ever go trick-or-treating in his neighborhood as a kid.]

Yeah, I went as Prince Cheery. [Charming.]
