[OPEN] Maybe not a literal monster mash

Who: Jason Todd [personal profile] robintohood and you. Also a mingle!
What: Various antics at Descendant Karaoke Bar and Lounge during October
When: Throughout October
Where: Central City
Content Warnings: N/A for now. Will edit if needed.

[There may be some changes to the timeline now but Descendant Karaoke Bar and Lounge is still open for business. There are always people looking to have a good time drinking and blowing off some steam with a good song. It doesn’t matter if they’re ordinary civilians or some of Central City’s more... colorful characters. Just be nice to the bouncers and check your weapons by the entrance first.

To reflect the fall season, Descendant has included seasonal drinks like pumpkin beer, apple cocktails, and spiced maple bourbon.

Meanwhile, some of this month's most popular songs seem to be reflecting Halloween, such as Highway to Hell and Monsters. Or maybe you want to do a more classy number like Witchcraft? Descendant looks like a speakeasy after all. And in a total coincidence, Time Warp has also shown up on the popularity chart.

If you drop by at Descendant on a Coyote Ugly Night, you’ll find the atmosphere considerably wilder and wetter. You might’ve even already seen some of the social media posts and videos of the employees performing. They certainly look like they’re having a good time.

Perhaps you’re coming in during a more normal time. Come by for a drink. Maybe rent a private karaoke room or karaoke on stage in front of others if you’re feeling brave. There are some bar games around too.

You can always just people watch as well. Those who are especially observant might notice that some of Descendant’s customers are a bit... furtive as they keep their heads low or quickly scurry to one of the private rooms.

There’s always the reading room too for those who want a more quiet ambiance.

And then there's the very select few who are allowed upstairs in the attic apartment.

Whatever the case may be, Jason will be around. As Descendant’s owner, he’s a busy guy with plenty he has to do]

((OOC: Jason will be around but feel free to mingle! My contact information is on this journal's profile and I'm in the game's Discord server. Also feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns as well. I also have a feedback post.))

Would have – ?

[ Realization strikes as true as a bolt of Zeus' lightning, followed instantly by a flood of distress. No, not Bruce.

But she swallows her welling sorrow: she is Amazon. Grief comes later. The young woman in front of her comes first. ]


Oh, Barbara.

[ She reaches to put a gentle hand over the younger woman's. ]

I'm sorry. I can see how that would make things... especially difficult.

There's only one person that would be harder to face.

[And she would never forgive anyone that made her face a younger version of her father, but he's also been dead a couple of years now, so it's not so raw.]

Didn't have much time to deal with it at home. Gotham is unrelenting. We're having to do everything we can to keep up, but we're doing the best we can. And yes, we could ask for help, but Gotham isn't the only place that needs it. [Not like Bruce trained them to ask for it, either.] There are four of us. We'll figure it out.

Just don't say anything to him? No need to add that to the mess when we can't even say if we're from the same place or not. I already know I'm not from the guys.

I promise.

[ Aside from helping Barbara, it would be just another heavy thing to place on Bruce and all the others. She remembers all too well those months when the Bruce of her home was nearly killed and how it affected all of them. How helpless his friends had felt. How chaotic everything that followed.

It seems they all carry secrets from one another. Only Kyle, she thinks, is from the same world and time as herself. And even he may not know... everything. ]


I believe you'll be able to keep Gotham standing, Barbara. The four of you. You have always been formidable.
