----------

It's honestly too much work to go to everyone individually, but who wants to come to a party for Niles's birthday?

It's tomorrow, November 11th, at Leo/Odin's temple. Bring anything you feel like bringing. Alcohol is encouraged.

Strippers are welcomed but not necessary. Though he would appreciate them.

I have a gift for him but that's as far as I go.

'Strippers'?

[The term is not familiar to the Valkyrie. And her phone is telling her something about screws which have been damaged.]

[wadoichimonji]

They're people who take off their clothing and dance for a living! Really fun in parties.

[nibelungvalesti]

Ah. Sex work.

Not the most worthy cause to embrace, and somewhat troublesome in the Far Shore.

[wadoichimonji]

Is it sex work if there's no sex involved?

Yeah, I don't think I've met many strippers in here.

[nibelungvalesti]

Is there not? The implications are strong and unsubtle.

You may indeed struggle to find them here. I am hesitant to inquire which gods or fellow shinki you regard with a desire to see them dancing nude.

[wadoichimonji]

Usually they're just dancing, making parties more fun and whatnot. Sex isn't something that's expected, but some still try to get it from the dancers.

I wouldn't mind seeing anyone dancing half naked actually, I got to do it once and it was really fun.

[nibelungvalesti]

Your first statement makes my point. Whether or not it is an intended offering, those present will often infer what is not implied. That can be particularly dangerous.

[wadoichimonji]

Dangerous how?

[sharkmaid]

This sounds like a bachelor party more than a birthday party.

[wadoichimonji]

There would be more dicks if it was a bachelor party though.

[sharkmaid]

I bet he'd enjoy that.

[wadoichimonji]

Wouldn't you? Dicks make everything better.

[sharkmaid]

I'm not shameless! And don't go typing all that stuff so freely here! Who knows who'll see it??

[wadoichimonji]

Isn't the point that everyone sees it?

[sharkmaid]

Not the disgusting stuff. Isn't that common sense?

[wadoichimonji]

Disgusting stuff. So talking about stuff like strippers is disgusting?

[sharkmaid]

Well... openly in public where kids could hear, sure.

[wadoichimonji]

Kids like you I'm guessing? Gotcha, won't happen again.

[sharkmaid]

Hey! I'm NOT a kid!!

[wadoichimonji]

Huh.

[!!! He has a suspicion, but...]

Would you happen to be Niles' boyfriend that he's mentioned?

[wadoichimonji]

I am. Why?

[artificialrose]

[Well. Crap. Now what to say... give him a second.]

I don't really want to lie, but it's something unpleasant, too.

[wadoichimonji]

[Zoro frowns at his phone. What the hell?]

Speak. Unless you'd prefer we meet in person.

[artificialrose]

Niles and I ran into each other during the moon viewing party.

[SO PLEASE DON'T LET HIM HAVE TO SPELL IT OUT, ZORO...]

[wadoichimonji]

[Zoro doesn't respond for a bit, for a long ass while actually.]

So you fucked him, is that what you want to say?

[artificialrose]

[....You know what, nevermind, maybe he should have spelled it out- ]

Yes.

[HE CAN'T REALLY SAY ANYTHING TO THAT????]

I didn't know how he had anyone he was in a relationship with at the time, and magic was happening regardless. We sorted out the whole thing later, since we felt regret about it.

[wadoichimonji]

Thanks for not lying, and don't do it again. Now you know I'm here.

[artificialrose]

You don't have to worry about that. For most of the time I've known him, I haven't exactly gotten along with him.

But even if I say that, would it be alright if I dropped by very quickly to leave you guys a bottle of alcohol again? Just as a show of good faith.

[wadoichimonji]

Most people don't get along with Niles, I used to be one.

And that's fine.

[artificialrose]

Somehow that's reassuring to hear in a way.

Anyway, thank you. I'll show up.

This not an appropriate message to post to a public board used by children and young teenagers, simply because you feel you are above taking the time and care to direct it to the correct recipients.

I would urge you to be more considerate in future.

[wadoichimonji]

It's the strippers, isn't it? That's what killed it.
