[OPEN] Summer lovin’~ Had me a blast~

[robintohood]

Who: Jason Todd robintohood and you
What: Various antics throughout August, including aftermath from the Downburst event
When: Throughout August
Where: Central City
Content Warnings: N/A for now. Will edit if needed.

Descendant:

[Now that Mechanima and the Society have lifted their control over Central City's borders and the teleporters between various American locations are properly working again, it's easier for visitors to come by again.

As usual, Descendant Karaoke Bar and Lounge is open for business and now hoping that they can have more customers again. Civilian or criminal; temporarily depowered or not; people will want a drink and/or blow off some steam.

This month's popular songs include hits such as It's Not Right But It's Okay, Escape (The Piña Colada Song), Don’t Stop Believin’, and Summer Nights.

The Coyote Ugly Nights were successful despite previous travel restrictions so now these events are happening at least twice a week, depending on which employees are available to dance or do extra security. The social media posts advertising the business and showing off performances are still in full swing as well.

Or you can just drop by during a normal day/evening. As Descendant's official owner, Jason can be found doing things like bartending, serving particularly close attention to the VIPs, or just in the reading room taking a break.

Mind Descendant’s shadier customers.]

Happy(?) Birthday (In-game date: August 16th):

[It's Jason's birthday and it… might be a mixed bag for him. Previous birthdays have wildly varied from depressing, bittersweet, and for a short while, actually happy. This year things with his family could be better but they could also be worse. There's also no doubt that this year he has people he genuinely cares about and who would care that it's his birthday. It gets confusing having so many ambiguous feelings.

In the hopes of minimizing potentially awkward conversations, he's taking a day-off from Descendant, sleeping in a little and perhaps going out later in the day to treat himself to a new book and his favorite foods.

Maybe you can catch him when he's out and about]

[robintohood]

Thanks. It’s been a lot of hard work getting to this level for us. We appreciate your help too.

[atypical_echo]

I'm always happy to support my friends and personal heroes, Jason. Even when they are younger than me.

[A lot younger than him. Okay, not a lot, but he was prone to getting attached to younger people. Through no fault of his own.]

[robintohood]

[Jason arches an eyebrow in mild surprise]

“Heroes?”

[atypical_echo]

You helped shelter me against the guards you know. That's heroic.

[robintohood]

[Jason finds himself feeling strange about that label. While Jason does still try to help people in his own ways, he doesn’t consider himself to be heroic. Most of his actions as the Red Hood certainly aren’t noble]

Well, you clearly needed help and it wasn’t right what was happening to you. Plus we’re friends so… you know. I was just trying to help.

[atypical_echo]

Exactly.

[He laughs actually. Because it's so nice to have someone acknowledge the friendship he offered so easily.]

I'm lucky to have met you.

[robintohood]

[Jason remains unused to having close friends but he certainly won't complain about the friendship he and Mark have established, despite the secrets Jason's still keeping]

Glad you feel that way, Mark. Now that luck just needs to continue into other things.

[atypical_echo]

LIke not getting mugged?

[He laughs.]

[robintohood]

[Jason snickers]

Exactly that.

So glad you took the other one.

[atypical_echo]

I swear it's less common these days.

The timing was too good to pass

[robintohood]

What's the count so far?

[atypical_echo]

What, this month or total?

[robintohood]

Both.

[atypical_echo]

Uh... twice this month and lost track of the total?"

[robintohood]

Maybe you need a visit to Sunset for a countercurse or something.

[atypical_echo]

... You think that's a thing?

[Damn, if that's a thing he wants that.]

[robintohood]

It's possible. All kinds of magic shit happens there apparently. Plus, the whole town's part of a shady deal with deities.

[atypical_echo]

Yeah. I'm friends, sorta, with Loki. So I've heard about some of it.

[robintohood]

It might be worth it to look into magical counters then.

[atypical_echo]

I'll talk to Loki I guess.
