it's my party and I'll cry if I want to
Who: Gal Friday + YOU
What: Icebreaker party
When: 3/13, evening
Where: Rischie
Warnings: TBA
[the morning announcements alter daily now, by the second week of the month. one week until the party. four days until the party. the party is tomorrow.]
The new cruiser get-together will start at 9PM tonight at Rischie! Remember: The dress code is cruise elegant! Hm? [there is a sound like a crackle and pop of static.] The Captain says he won't be attending, but he'll be paying extra special attention to everybody who does!
[if that's a sufficient enough bribe.
"but we don't have cruise elegant clothing," you cry. but you do! have you not checked the top drawer in your room's dresser, where at most two perfectly suited formal outfits are located? you have? but they weren't there before today? don't ask questions. just get ready for the party.
the house lights in the club are at full brightness, giving everything the sort of uneasy liminal feeling a room gets when used for something opposite its intended purpose. booths line the walls, and small tables and chairs sit between them and the dance floor, which is empty except for one table, holding a series of "HELLO, MY NAME IS..." nametags and sheets of glittery stickers. Friday is there, of course, standing by the table. she's even dressed up! and if your character hasn't corrected her previously, their name tag will have their true name. there are also a few buffet tables with refreshments on them, and trays bearing canapes and flutes of champagne float by. (deftly avoiding minors! excluding Jinx, but only if Venti is within close proximity. welcome to parenthood, barbatos!)
once everyone is settled in, Friday will clear her throat (??) to get everyone's attention and explain the rules of the night. it's an altered version of twenty questions: every person in the room must answer ten questions about themselves, asked by their fellow passengers, collecting stars for every answer considered acceptable. when they have 10 stars, they're allowed to leave!
oh, yeah, the door to the club shut about five minutes ago. it doesn't seem very eager to open back up again.
time to break some ice! breaking ice and cruises always go well together, after all.]

So if you're a psychic, how'd you wind up stuck here with the rest of us?
no subject
I woke up here by chance, same as you I'd assume. Having psychic abilities doesn't make someone any less human, or more special than anyone else.
no subject
S'pose not. [He concedes as he slides the card into his inner vest pocket. It's not like he can argue.] I'm guessing that means you haven't foreseen any way out of this mess either.
no subject
[... There is definitely a "pot calling the kettle black" bit of hypocrisy here.]
no subject
What kind of psychic are we talking about then?
[Maybe possibly the kind that can find out who they need to beat up in order to get back home?]
no subject
[A pause]
So... you can imagine the irony of suddenly ending up a cruise ship absolutely rife with the damn things.
no subject
[That curly brow rises, instantly intrigued. This is the first he's heard of spirits, but considering the flying objects and unmanned restaurants...]
That what's going on here? Some shitty ghosts throwing a fit?

no subject
[Sanji trails off as he considers what it means if this guy really is the great psychic he claims to be. He hasn't had much contact with spirits himself, but... There were the negative hollows back on Thriller Bark. They were anything but considerate. They were pretty funny though, the way they made his crewmates so ridiculously depressed with a simple ghostly pass through. The spirits on this ship are significantly less entertaining.]
You know how to deal with them, then. These crazy rude spirits.
no subject
[And that's the reason why he even bothered to attend this farce of a party: he had thought studying Friday's interactions with people here, or keeping an eye out for anything unusual, might help in that department of figuring out what to do about the situation.]
no subject
So... Theoretically, some of these bastards might just need a good kick in the pants? [The question is tinged with disbelief despite that the fact he's asking it at all means he can't help but be a little hopeful.] Exorcism ain't exactly my specialty, but I'm ready to try any methods I can.
