Waking the Dead 2.0 || August 9, 2063 || Tuesday
[Dinner is served late in the mess hall because it's a grand banquet in honor of the Magistrate of Kibo. It's a pretty modest celebration, all things considered: the people at Kibo are invited, along with her family, any Searing Wind members who feel like dropping in from wherever they've been as of late, and a few friends among the other Keepers of the Vigil. That's about it.
Still, Kalika looks like she's having fun. Her husband and her children are, of course, all in attendance, together with her husband's familiars and the entire division of the Strays from Seigi. The food, mind you, is excellent, and there is more than enough booze.
You're welcome to come and go as you please. Kalika's easy like that.]
OOC Notes:
+ Will have some threads for NPCs of note, but just to give you a general idea: many members of the three blades are in attendance, along with pretty much anyone whom Kalika views as family. If you want to request for somebody, lemme know!
+ Debby and Noey: feel free to put your NPCs in here. =w=
+ Feel free to start your own threads too. Just specify if it's open to all, or if you're going to thread something out with a particular PC.

[It's probably impertinent to ask this question, but then it just kinda comes out all on its own. He'll probably look slightly oops after asking it.]

[ Like being unable to commit to greater things and coming off like a flake while she was at it.
No, she doesn't mind the question. Living is all about improving yourself when you can. Dancer's philosophy, go figure. ]
Had a couple of really bad ones back when I was fresh to the Vigil.

[He smiles at you, because he gets it. Which is to say he gets it now. The point really is to be the best version of yourself you possibly can be.]

You're... what? Early thirties?
[ She says that with a sigh of wistfulness. ]
My kids are about your age.
[ They don't look it, of course. But eh, Changing Breed bloodline. ]
Where were you stationed?
no subject
[Your kids...]
Renae's a good boss. I haven't had the pleasure of meeting Margaret, unfortunately.

She's chuckling though as she takes another drag of her cigarette. ] You've been around then.
Renae's always been more stationary, so he's naturally easier to get a hold of. Maggie doesn't like staying put as much. [ She used to always wonder if those years spent in Thailand had contributed to it, but neither of her children had tolerated the thought of her blaming herself for very long once they'd figured out the missing pieces of her story. ] But the Riders are her calling and if it makes her happy, I'll just need to play the needy mother a little longer.
[ She says that gently though. ]
I hope that you and Renae get along. He needs more friends outside of his blade and Maggie's. My son... does not people.
