The 403 crew seemed generally enthused. Cathleen- "We're celebrities! Excuse us, gentlemen!"
Jarvis- "Cool baby!"
Kenny- "Huh. I feel like a whatchacallit. With the Jungle Jim getup and funny hat."
Kyle- "An anthropologist?"
Richie- "Sounds like a colonist."
Kenny- "I claim this land for the 403! Let's go." The band was live yo. Mature black lady on drums, asian teen dude on acoustic guitar, one teenage south asian girl on lead vocals, and three white teenage girls on powerless electric bass guitars and backup vocals. As they began to play, they saw that the bass section were playing in unison to amplify the sound, and the drummer and guitarist were playing light so as to not overwhelm quieter instruments. The singer was rather eccentric.As the drummer waited, the other players sand indistinct long notes and the strings were strummed rapidly to create a gently rising and falling sound, while the lead singer preached the lyrics. Singer- "Dearly beloved We are gathered here today to get through this thing called life
Electric word life It means forever and that's a mighty long time But I'm here to tell you There's something else The afterworld
A world of never ending happiness You can always see the sun, day or night
So when you call up that shrink in Beverly Hills You know the one - Dr. Everything'll Be Alright Instead of asking him how much of your time is left Ask him how much of your mind, baby
'Cause in this life Things are much harder than in the afterworld In this life You're on your own
And if the elevator tries to bring you down Go crazy... LET'S GO!" Oh. It was a Prince cover.

Micah could totally do parkour fucking smashed in his humble opinion. Well, at least make it home in mostly one piece, however he took what he was given. He drank his vodka in no rush, truth be told he wasn't much of a fan of vodka straight up. Fuck if he'd let Alex know that though.
Micah appreciated the music from his current position, he didn't quite enjoy the attention given as much as the other 403 members. The El Corazon people were just being fucking polite, he hadn't forgotten Jordan's previous opinion of 403's accumulative social skills. Kat- "A man to conduct himself with quiet dignity. What's on your mind, Micah?" A foxy lady sat down nearby. Tegan- "You serving, Kat?"
Kat- "It wouldn't be a party without an open bar!"

Brian- "Aw man, I don't know... it's time to dance, but I don't know if I even feel like it. "
Jordan- "Nonsense. You should get into the groove. Dance your cares away, Brian!"
Brian- "Hmm, maybe. Who do you think I should dance with, Jordan? I was really looking forward to... *sigh*"
Jordan- "Alex sure looks like he could dance with someone that can keep up."
Brian- "Hmm that's true, good idea."
Brian dove into the silly circle dancing with Alex, with surprising enthusiasm.

Jordan approached Micah and Tegan. Jordan- "Hey Tegan, have you met Kenny yet? I think you two would really hit it off."

Tegan- "Sounds divine. See you, Jordy." She foxied her way over to the revelry. With that, Jordan quietly excused himself, and headed out the back door. Kat- "So, as I was saying Micah... Hi there. "

"Hi. Sorry, we had a pretty big fucking night last night. So ah still recovering but I guess that's not gonna happen anymore... So ah just fucking waiting to go from hung over to slightly drunk again. How's it going for you? Going to hit up that Richie kid?" Kat- "Heheh, who says I'm not hitting you up, toots? "
Micah- "Haha touché. Although I've never been called fucking toots before, isn't that just for girls? Besides aren't I little fucking old, you're like 17 or something, right? Alex and Richie are still in their teens..."
Kat- "Y'know 18 is legal here, right? Guess what? MuHahahaha... But, seriously. I guess I have a tendency to see the sexy in anybody, but you are hella tight, dude. And I'm a grown-ass woman, like the saying goes... Stick it in your cap and think about it."

Alex viewed Brian as a challenge/somebody to impress hybrid and broke out his most flashy solo moves. He was totes showboating. Eventually, he slowed down to catch his breath chat."I've been practicing! So, how's your ballroom? I haven't partnered with a real dancer since high school. Those were the days. Tango and swing! My faves. You guys need to visit us more often, by the way. We got electricity and a tattoo parlor. Also, very soon, we'll have cows. Dairy. Calcium. Strong bones. Chocolatey milk." Brian- "Oh my GOD it sounds so amazing there. It sucks! I mean, we're all like family here but... Chocolate milk? Really? "
"Cheer up! I'll bring you a bottle when we make some. Promise." He spun a couple times, then gestured at the lead singer."What a voice. Wonderful. She's wonderful. I envy people who make music. Man, with this hair, Alex Pike got the rock star style, but none of the rock star skills. I can't even sing in the shower! You know, that's one thing 403 needs. Showers. SO sick of water buckets. Sometimes, I sneak outside when it rains. Guess that's risky, considering lightning. Uh. Yolo? No. I mean carpe diem. Maybe we live twice. Who knows? What do you think? Will we be reincarnated as a pair of neko mah tahs?" He imitated the nekomata dance, as Ashley had described it, and laughed with silly delight. Brian- "Oh my GOD that's so funny!"

Tegan sat down all slinky next to Kenny. Tegan- "Hey champ, you're the big man around here huh?"
Kenny- "I'm the most experienced so they wanted me on the job, but the boss of any mission is the guy that organized it. So that's the Baryshnikov over there, haha."
Tegan- "I think experience is what matter the most. What do you think is important?"
Kenny- "I feel like, we're all in this together, and the monsters out there, are, like, a lesson. It's about humanity. God made us to love one another, I think."
Tegan- "Oh wow, you must be the philosopher of the group. I can appreciate that."
Kenny- "That's cool, baby. I'm doing my best. What do you do around here?"
Tegan- "Oh you know, as one of the only adults around here, there's a lot to do. I go out with the rest of them. I take care of my little sister. She's... got a lot of problems."
Kenny- "Well, that's real sweet of you. Cool stuff." They chit-chatted and drank.

The singer was using some scratchy mix of torch jazz vocals and traditional Indian singing, which made the lyrics past the talky part at the beginning hard to understand. The next selection was some unidentified funk song, and easier to dance to at a moderate pace. TIME WARP Alex danced and laughed, and hung out with various people, having a good old time. Micah did his Micah-styled thing, but only managed to offend a few people in this naughty-styled enclave.
Independently, they discovered a few things about the place. For example, that it isn't wall-to-wall satans - Edda the drummer is like the Christian high priestess of the place, while Kyle is the Satanic high priest. The children lean Satanic and adults Christian, but there's a few exceptions. They also learned that they weren't really prepared for anything like the siege, and were concerned by what they'd heard of it. Also, the party seemed to lack refreshments. They had very little to eat, and little water to drink.
Meanwhile, the place learned a few things about them... Micah was hanging out with Brian on the roof. How did he get there? Go to horrorboys.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=elcorazon&action=display&thread=413 ...
Alex was on the dance floor with the little singer - Olivia - and the only other 403 person in sight was Richie - dancing with Kat. Edda had taken up the singing, while still playing drums.
A weird awareness crept up on Alex unbidden. Where did everybody go? How long had they been there?

Olivia cocked her head as Alex pondered deep ponderings. Olivia- "Hey, what's on your mind?"

"Uh. Mostly: how strong was that vodka?" Alex glanced at his naked wrist, then remembered that his watch died nobly during battle (RIP). "Sirena joven, what time is it? And where did everyone go? Like ... Micah. Judy. Cathleen. My head's in the clouds."

Olivia- "Who cares what time it is now? School's out forever." She was a mysterious, sphynx-like sort of girl.

"Haha!" Alex didn't ruffle Olivia's hair like a hella patronizing bastard, but the temptation: it was powerful. "Time was important before school. Day, night, and the in-between dawn twilight times control nature, liiiike ... tigers hunt at night. And that's when demons get powerful, too. Three people on my team were possessed - me included - so we shouldn't be outside together after sunset ..." He put a hand on his stomach and made a pouty face."Plus, I'm hungry."

She leaned into him, and ran her stickish arms over his body. Olivia- "We're hungry too, but it's OK. We're rich in love."
