Victoria Darya Romus

City Hall . Public Party . Firday evening

---

Victoria followed the flow of people eventually making there way to city hall, gathering momentum as it pushed up the steps, down the roads and paths to city hall. Hanging onto Milo for size, the smaller woman more vunrable to the mass, the tanned looking nervous woman having tagged on and the two seeming to share a small bond of similarity due to career and Victoria knowing what nerves felt like.

Beneath a confident outer layer. Various weakness, worries and little things churned underneath, things seemed to be going almost too well. New City, Milo, her sister and beginnings of friends. Life normally was not that easy. Maybe she could admit to Milo and he not run off? Repaired, but like all broken objects you could still see the cracks.

Smiling and holding hands on the way there before sitting down at a small group of sofas near one of the bars with views of the large and beautifully decorated city hall. Speakers playing and a live band on stage performing a mix of songs. Partly affection and partly not wanting to be pulled away by crowds, the young woman finaly released her grip of her date, leaning the walking stick next to her. Much as she could walk abit. She was not making it too far without.

Taking off the coat, revealing long white hair in a intricate layered platt, some hanging free, other parts tired back to keep out of face. Normally not bothering, though tonight was a special occasion.

Drinks gained and time beginning to get later as some headed home, others heading off arm in arm drunk in love or alcohol or storming off having f been betrayed and bonds broken.

Talking with Rajvi, she seemed quiet, nervous and rather much like some of the people she had worked with. They all had two sides, the online and offline. One group, The Cardinal, Athos, Porfos, and more, the rather boisterous online chats had been rather more muted when they met in real life.

Hey... Server coded are important too! Try emailing without correctly set up data ports and link nodes... Yet alone counter attack defence systems..

My date might be napping soon if go on too long!

Oh... Sorry... We kinda got caught up in things... OK I'm a nerd underneath..

Looking over to Milo who was likely confused as a nerd in a sports bar, or a sportsman in a hacker convention, he had been patiantly quiet and probbly either bored or just smiling along. Maybe he even learned somthing.

Stop by Frying Nemo after everything for fish and chips?
Make up? Curry sauce special tonight... I miss home food...

Smiling and teasing slightly, alcohol long having gone to head and dress showing more ghostly pale leg than before, dress cut to cover but also keep a person intrested. A small scar from a old IV line, other monitors marks and such, at hospital just poking out below the hem. Years later reminders remained, the ones one on arm and wrist though scars only seems a slightly darker pale shade than normal, raised in the shadows from lihghting. Everything about Victoria Romus was not entirely normal.

From there spot, she could see the party still going. The city was determined to stay awake, many gathered in another area yawned, obviously thr mayor and other senior people. Official suits and gold braids abound. When the city never slept. So must its staff.

---

Outside the street party was closing, thr thicker snow and growing cold forcing the people inside, winter was hitting harder than before. Across the city snow was gathering and the docks and rivers began to gain a thin layer of ice.

The animals at the zoo shivered or loved it in there controlled enclosures, the glass domes and sky lights of museum was covered by a blanket of snow. Across the city the winters bite was taking grip and would not let go till morning at least.

@PrinceAlexus@Pilatus

I do have a question, if you two could answer it. Where exactly is Sol City in the world? You mentioned where it was based off, but not where it is (to my knowledge).

Edit: More questions. What is the current date in the RP? December something?

@Poi

Location. It's North US, West coast. Roughly Seattle. Again we kept this a a little vague. Gave us more flexibility. Also abit of influences from Canada. It's abit of a hybrid of ideas.

We never have had a exact date, given weather... Likely December.
We never defined it super exactly,

Let's B!tch. I feel it's a healthy release for our roleplay annoyances 2.0

¯\_(ツ)_/¯ As a bisexual person myself, I don't really see the issue with it. So long as nobody starts PMing me and telling me to kill myself because of it.

<Snipped quote by PrinceAlexus>

I dunno, I still use queer sometimes. Depends on the setting. A roleplay based in the late 1800s - early 1900s would be thematically appropriate to use queer in its original context, for example.

@Grim

True. Though given people's ability to miss context. I'd certainly not use certain terms and names of some times and regions.

@Ms Patoots Which slur? Because queer actually means strange or odd. And now that I think about it, fag is British slang for a cigarette.

@Grim

Yeah, fag is a normal term for a cigarette.
It's regular word to some people in a non hate use.

Queer has fallen out of use for many years, it's meaning kinda implies homosexuality etc, not strange more often than not.

@RoccanIronclad

Maybe she can cheer him up and they can grab fish and chips on there way out with curry sauce.

I assume that during this time skip Milo has just been playing silent companion to Rajvi and Vika, seeing as computers are not in his wheelhouse, I assume that would be their initial conversation?

@PrinceAlexus@Lemons

@RoccanIronclad

Yeah.. Between a programmer and a coder...
He might be abit lost...

He can always do some amazon shopping on his phone lol.

Though I'm sure I can find somthing to make life intresting :)
