    Capitol Bowl, one of the best bowling alleys in Sacramento - at least according to Yelp. The Mastigos reserved a private party for the Awakened. There'd been quite a few rolling into town. So why not have some fun?

    Up the stairs, there was a pair of lanes and seats, just for them. The elevated platform overlooked the other lanes, while affording them privacy. No one could hear their words, situated up so and all the noise of crashing pins.

    The sweet, fragrant smells of roses mixed with lilacs emanate from her as she casts magic. The scent intensifies, bordering on intoxicating, when Life magic is cast. When Aurora casts Vulgar magic, the scent takes a nasty turn, to the putrid, nauseating odor of a rotting corpse. The stronger the magic, the more those around want to retch at the smell.

    Bowling? Hell yeah she wanted to go bowling!

    It was something she could not remember the last time she actually did. So it must have been years upon years since she last tried her hand at bowling.

    So she eagerly threw open her closet, looking for something amazing to wear. Black leather pants were pulled out and a flowing black lacy tank top with stars on it. Her long blonde hair had been left down and flowed around her shoulders and down her back.

    The red GTO arrives and finds a parking space. Hopping out she breezes into the building and gets a pair of shoes.

    Going up the stairs she was excited to see they had their own lanes!

    Sweet!!

    So she sat down and began changing her shoes. Frowning, she realized the bowling shoes just did not match her outfit.

    At first, there is a soft rattling of chains tickles your ears, which increase in volume as the sound of something heavy scraping the floor echos out. The scraping grows louder, and now heavy measured footsteps a company the ominous cacophony...which you realize seems to come from everywhere, no matter the distance.

    Bowling?

    Lacuna sighs once again even as she lumbers to the desk the attendant seeing the size of her and balking. Good thing she has her own fucking bowling shoes.

    The hunterwarlock can't help but think of Serorities once again even as a part of her remembers manditory team bounding outings to places very much like this.

    "Hey." she says awkwardly, her bowling shoe a neon nightmare of green and purple. Her competitively plain jeans, tank top and leather jacket seem just as out of place with the shoes as Aurora's more flattering ensemble dose with her own shoes. "Is anyone else showing up?" a thread of paranoia rattles. Still untrusting of the monsters in the night. Even if she is one.

    Campanella was down for a little socialising with his true peers. Eagerly he rescheduled his working activities to give him plenty of time to enjoy the whole day. He even decided to stretch his spell casting muscles with some ritual work in the morning.

    Pride cometh before the fall.

    By the time Campanella actually succeeded in crafting the basic ritual - and having the Glyph hold together - he was hot, tired and bothered. Not even a nap and a shower could cleanse him of his sense of outraged failure. At least the Glyph had settled into his Pattern, muting his Awakened aura so he appeared as little more than a Sleeper to the untrained eye.

    The Moros turned up to the little gathering looking like a down-on-his-luck old school professor, with his eyes still bleary and his hair unkempt. At least he had freshened up and smelt faintly of old spice.

    "Hello. Good to be here. Have I missed anything?" He said, moving up to the group. The enthusiasm seemed to leak from his voice as he inspected the bowling shoes he had been provided with.

    Ritual takes 3 hours to complete.

    Bowling. Not really a sport. But also not not a sport. But most definitely a break from research.

    Shoes obtained eventually so is the location of the gathering.

    Samael, Aurora, Lacuna and Campanella.

    "Me! And I hope not- since that would make two of us," is the reply to Lacuna and Campanella.

    Standard shoes are slid off and replaced with the nonchalance of one who wore a t-shirt and jeans.

    A long figure paused upon the threshold of Capitol Bowl, contemplating how fitting the name was for a place where reflections of Sisyphus' boulder rolled on and on until they crashed into the oderly ranks of pins like so many bodies cut down before a death squad, or ranks of soldiers being shattered by canon fire. Yes, Capitol bowling.

    It seemed much too obvious for Epitaph's taste.

    With only one more moment of hesitation, the Theoricus decided that it would be futile to simply leave now and finally stepped inside. It was, after all, one of her duties to begin to navigate the social waters of the Consilium, and this was the perfect opportunity to begin such work, even if it did necessitate walking amongst the dullards. Their stares always bothered her, and it was only the thought that those eyes would one day all rot from their skulls that helped to save her mood as she changed into her own bowling shoes. An old pair of leather and seude shoes that were covered in discolored splotches that would glow beneath the light of the blacklights, for they were stains from blood. They were also a few sizes too large for her, but she'd brought extra socks, and with her new wardrobe she climbed steps to join the Willworkers party.

    "Hello," Epitaph said, her voice as solemn as if she were delivering a eulogy. She didn't ask for permission to join, but instead simply found a seat.

    "I like your shoes,"
    she said offhandedly to the towering woman whose gaze had clearly seen death.

    A smile and wave was offered to the statuesque woman as she appeared, “Hey! Great to see you.” Greets the Shaman, “I’m Madison in case I didn’t tell you earlier. And I hope so, bowling is fun with more people.” A nod. Yup, more people meant more fun.

    And then Campy was here! Campy was going to bowl, this was great. First he played pooled, and now he was bowling.

    To her, the unkempt hair was actually a good look for him in her opinion. But that thought stayed in her mind as she waves.

    “Hey! And you haven’t missed anything, we were just getting out shoes on and all that fun stuff. Good to see you.” She enjoyed seeing him.

    And a Sand! “And we have a Sandy!” she didn’t remember Sand correcting or being mad a Tuesday for calling her that, so she went with it. Then a shake of her head, “Nope. Just getting our very stylish shoes on.” A chuckle.

    Now the next chick? She was an unexpected. Not someone she would expect to see bowling.

    But, Aurora, ever the friendly and social one still offers a wave and friendly smile, “Hi! I'm Madison.”

    With Aurora taking the lead as Social Butterfly, "I shall return," he skipped downstairs. The back of "James" shirt had his former team name, "Snakes on a Plane," with the image printed on it.

    10 minutes minutes later, he returned with an employee carrying a large platter of finger food - chicken wings, nachos, mozzarella sticks. "Friends, Romans, Countrymen, lend me your ears," He gestured to the young employee.

    "This is my very good friend, Daniel Warwick. Daniel here is captain of the bowling team. We are here as his guests tonight. All I ask in return is that we do one favor," a glimmer of mischief shone brightly in his eyes. "Tell his boss how stupendous he is!" The teacher grinned at his pupil.

    Daniel smiled, embarrassed by the conspiracy to repay him. "Thanks Mister Anderson."

    "So, my dear friends, what would you like to drink?"

    Daniel remained by Samael's side until he was dismissed with the drink orders. Then the young Sleeper departed to fetch the orders.

    He pulled out his bowling ball and set it onto the rack. "I am so glad you made it out. How have all of you been?"

    Her question is answered with the appearance of nearly the entire Consilium.

    Grunting out a greeting, Lacuna shifts awkwardly. Not a trace of grace within, and not feeling the easy comradery that appeared effortless to the confidant blond shaman.

    The grim and overly made up angel of death complements her shoes, though Lacuna dosen't know if its with sincerity or mockery, either way taking it as the former would be seen as right if it were, and infuriating if it were the latter. "Thank you. Your outfit is certainly thematic." the component sits awkwardly on her tongue and flutters through the air sounding even more so.

    She clears her throat. "We doing teams or what?"
