Happy Diwali [open]

Who: All of Paradisa! That means YOU
What: Feasts and fireworks, oh my!
When: The third day of Diwali; Friday, Oct. 28th
Where: Everywhere (though just the ballroom for the feast)
Rating: Um, not more than PG? This is a family holiday, guys, come on...

Diwali is living up to it’s name today. The lights are everywhere today both outside and in.  Stands of candles line the lobby like a temple and lanterns hang from the very ceiling. Everywhere there is light.

Today, however, you can add new smells and sounds to the list as well. Music drifts through the air into the lobby, along with the fragrant, spice filled scents of foods and sweets.

((FEAST | FIREWORKS))

"They're really going all out with them," she replies softly, sounding a bit in awe at the fireworks. "Thank for watching them with me," Vivian adds.

He laughs after a moment, looking over to her. "You're thanking me?"
formersocialite: (half-smile)

"Why wouldn't I?" Vivian says. "I mean, you didn't have to do it in the first place."

[identity profile] gunnfire.livejournal.com 2011-11-12 03:24 pm (UTC)(link)
"Yeah, yeah, but bringin' 'thank you' in it? Makes it sound like an inconvenience."
formersocialite: (really?)

[personal profile] formersocialite 2011-11-12 09:41 pm (UTC)(link)
"What? No, no, that wasn't my intention at all," she replies, feeling incredibly stupid right now. "I didn't mean to offend."

He might have picked up on the fact that she was feeling a little dumb, because he laughs - winding his arm around her shoulder, tugging her over. "I'm just messing with you."

"You are?" Vivian casts him a sideways look, now feeling a bit embarrassed. "I thought you were being serious." She leans against him lightly, before laughing herself. "Silly me."

[identity profile] gunnfire.livejournal.com 2011-11-15 07:42 am (UTC)(link)
He shrugs slightly, grinning at her. "Hey. Fireworks, right? Try to enjoy 'em."

"I am enjoying them," she replies, offering a smile. "I think they're nearly over though."

[identity profile] gunnfire.livejournal.com 2011-11-15 11:17 pm (UTC)(link)
"Yeah. Looks like it." But he still keeps his face skyward. "So - other than horses, what d'you do?"
formersocialite: (look over)

[personal profile] formersocialite 2011-11-15 11:26 pm (UTC)(link)
"Well, I go to the shooting range, do a few sparring sessions now and again, go to the library. The bar." Vivian turns to him. "What do you like doing?"

[identity profile] gunnfire.livejournal.com 2011-11-15 11:56 pm (UTC)(link)
"Shooting range, right. You mentioned that before, didn't you?"
formersocialite: (w/Chuck)

[personal profile] formersocialite 2011-11-16 12:09 am (UTC)(link)
"I did, yeah. It's a good way to release some frustration, believe it or not."

[identity profile] gunnfire.livejournal.com 2011-11-16 12:45 am (UTC)(link)
"I like things you can hit. Guns are nice, sure - but it kind of takes the thrill out of it."

"I can see where you're coming from," Vivian says, clearly intrigued by his reply. "Maybe you could spar with me one day. Got my blackbelt when I was younger."

[identity profile] gunnfire.livejournal.com 2011-11-16 12:58 am (UTC)(link)
And up go the eyebrows. Gunn gives her a look. "You're a blackbelt, and you were just gonna withhold that info from me?"
formersocialite: (eyebrow; surprise)

[personal profile] formersocialite 2011-11-16 01:04 am (UTC)(link)
"Not withhold necessarily. I would have told you eventually," she says, making a mental note to probably share things like that. "Most people don't believe me when I say it."

[identity profile] gunnfire.livejournal.com 2011-11-16 08:47 am (UTC)(link)
"Not such a big surprise to me," Gunn admits. "I've known plenty of tiny women that could kick my ass six ways from Sunday."

[personal profile] formersocialite 2011-11-16 02:08 pm (UTC)(link)
"You do?" There's a slight smile on her face. "Think I could take you?"

[identity profile] gunnfire.livejournal.com 2011-11-17 09:56 am (UTC)(link)
"I dunno about that. Maybe we'll head to the gym and test it out sometime."
formersocialite: (Default)

[personal profile] formersocialite 2011-11-17 12:38 pm (UTC)(link)
"I'm game if you are. We'll just have to arrange a time that suits us both."

[identity profile] gunnfire.livejournal.com 2011-11-17 06:26 pm (UTC)(link)
"Considerin' my schedule usually consists of 'sleeping, eating, and beating the shit out of practice dummies in the gym,' figure that won't be too hard."
formersocialite: (profile; look)

[personal profile] formersocialite 2011-11-17 07:13 pm (UTC)(link)
"Okay, then. How about a Monday afternoon? I'm free most days as well apart from when I go to the range or the stables."

[identity profile] gunnfire.livejournal.com 2011-11-19 02:21 am (UTC)(link)
"Sounds good to me." He gives her shoulders a squeeze, standing up when the fireworks are over. "Gonna go say hi to some pals.. but I'll see you on a Monday, yeah?"
formersocialite: (Default)

[personal profile] formersocialite 2011-11-19 02:35 am (UTC)(link)
"Me too," Vivian replies, smiling a little at the contact. The last firework was spectacular to say the least. "I'll see you on a Monday, Gunn. Take care." She's going to sit on the grass for a bit longer before going back to mingling.
