[OPEN] Leave that old record spinning~
Who: Jason Todd robintohood and you!
What: Grand Opening Week of Descendant Karaoke Bar and Lounge
When: Week of November 28th
Where: Central City
Content Warnings: N/A for now. Will edit if needed.
[Throughout November, you may have seen posts across all the major social media platforms about a new Central City karaoke bar opening up. They even include some nice professional photos of the interior taken by Mark Bryant. Or maybe you’ve heard vague rumors in the criminal underworld about a new safe haven for discussing and doing some illicit business.
Meanwhile in Central City, the renovations of a two-storied building with a basement and an attic were being done swifter than any legally permitted construction project. The owner made sure it was good work done too.
And now at the tail end of the month, there’s a newly opened karaoke bar and lounge known as Descendant. Everyone is welcomed, regardless of their meta status or if they’re part of any guild.
Descendant’s entrance door is relatively innocuous. As soon as you step into the building though, you’re in the security check area and met with bouncers holding metal detector wands. No one’s allowed further in until they get checked. Once you check your weapons, you’ll receive a key labeled with the number of the locker your weapon(s) are in.
In a nod to Ascendant, the previous bar that attracted some of Central’s criminals, much of Descendant’s interior basic layout is similar but now with a speakeasy-esque decor. Once you walk through weapons check, you’re greeted with the first floor being an open space for mingling, drinking, and eating. The walls are visibly brick and the tables and chairs aren’t too fancy. The first floor is also where the bar is.
Further towards the back of the first floor are private rooms for guests to enjoy if they reserve ahead of time and pay extra. The cheapest karaoke rooms are simple and while the most expensive are more luxurious.
One room that makes Descendant unique is the reading room everyone is welcome to use. You're free to drink and enjoy some quiet reading time. Take a book for keeps or donate a book! Quiet conversation is welcome, but overly noisy patrons will be kicked out.
On the second floor are a couple of arcade machines, pool tables, and a stage for live performances. There are plush lounges for people to sit and enjoy the shows, or to take a break between rounds of pool.
With the exception of the reading room and the employee-only areas, you’ll hear music throughout most of the building. It’s either coming from the karaoke machines or from a separate playlist.
Whatever you decide to do, the owner and other attentive employees hope you enjoy your time at their establishment.]
((OOC: Mingle post! Enjoy yourselves. More information about Descendant is here and here, including an opt-in form for the BatFamily to spy on your character.))

Sleeper starts to stand with a lazy stretch, taking the opportunity to study the table in question with all their eyes. Bomber jacket is easy enough to pick out, and certainly would not back down for most of the security on obvious duty.
no subject
"They'll be getting the house special for the rest of the night." Which is to say that everything will be as watered down as possible, to keep them from getting much drunker. Telling them they're cut off is only going to make tempers worse. "If they're still being assholes, I'll talk to Jason about getting 'em kicked out."

Sleeper brushes past her affectionately as they drop to the bar floor, weaving effortlessly between people on the way to the problem table. Before long, it's pretty obvious that something has happened turn the belligerence dial down a few settings, but they're still clearly enjoying things. No sense sobering them up, because impaired reflexes might be useful.
And then they return to their spot at the end of the bar, casually watching. "Hey, Steph, think you could get me some of that spiced cider we have on special?
no subject
They'll get a few more watered down drinks and hopefully decide to leave in an hour or so without much more fuss.
Once Sleeper is back with a request, Steph can't help but grin, "I'll have to check your ID first, and then you'll have to tell me what the legal age is for alien cats." She likes to think that she's funny.
