#007 The Roaring Twenties

[hosting]

[It's that time of the month again! The Host Club is once more opening its doors for business, this time with a couple of new additions and a couple of losses... The ballroom has been completely transformed into a 1920s style speakeasy.

A few hosts are serving behind the bar, namely Allen, Maladict and Cole, all of them dressed in this bartender outfit. The rest of the hosts are dotted around the room dressed in this attractive outfit, complete with the hat. There are two notable exceptions to this - one of which is Haruhi, who is dressed in a flapper dress, and Tamaki who is dressed in a white suit.

There are tables for playing poker, chips provided, as well as three American Pool tables to have a go on. By the door, there are racks of dresses and suits in 1920s style, in case any of the guests wish to take part in the theme themselves - manning the racks is Delta, instructed to persuade the guests to take part and compliment them on their new look.

Come on and all and enjoy the club!]

[ooc: Please wait for the sections THE SECTIONS ARE UP - one for host club members to mingle and discuss the theme, and one for guests. Feel free to threadjack around in both sections, talk to your fellow hosts, your fellow guests, and everyone in beteween!]

Sorry, my planet doesn't have a '20's', I know how to make a Head Nailed To The Door, but that can be quite painful at times.

[demontobeloved]

I have no doubt.

I can teach you how to make a martini.

[mal_addict]

Well, I won't drink it, but I'd never say no to learning something new.

[demontobeloved]

Well, I'd say that working under the current theme would mean less GBH of the ear from Tamaki.

[He starts writing the process for making a martini down.] Want me to show you, too?

[mal_addict]

He's always welcome to try, but tangling with a vampire is never wise for anyone.

Sure, knock yourself out.

[demontobeloved]

Same with a demon, but I'm sure you'd prefer a peaceful existance.

[He gets the relevant 20's equipment out.] You'll have to excuse me, it's been over 80 years since I've done it with this gear.

[mal_addict]

A demon, huh? Interesting.

Take your time, I have plenty of it.

[demontobeloved]

You're looking at one fully-fledged upper-level demon.

[mal_addict]

I'll just nod and pretend like that means something to me.

[demontobeloved]

I'm one of the most powerful demons in my world.

[He starts mixing the martini]

Not that I'm bragging.

[mal_addict]

[She makes an amused sound]

Would you perhaps like a little medal for the achievement?

[demontobeloved]

[Unfazed]

No need. I'm working to undo all of that.

[mal_addict]

You want to undo...being a demon?

[Pause] Good luck with that, trying to not be something you are is really difficult.

[demontobeloved]

I can't change exactly who I am. Not without sealing my powers, which I'm holding as a back-up.

[A pause] I'm trying my best to not commit any evil atrocities.

[mal_addict]

Been there, done that, got the mental health issues to prove it. It's a hard road, but if you keep at it, you'll get there.

[demontobeloved]

I'm no stranger to mental health issues.

[mal_addict]

Then you're already ahead of the game.

[demontobeloved]

Well, I'm glad to hear that being good is the same as being insane.

[mal_addict]

Were you expecting anything different?

[demontobeloved]

If I'm totally honest...

[A long, thoughtful pause]

No.

[mal_addict]

That's good, it won't ruin your expectations.

[demontobeloved]

My expectations for Good can't really get any lower than they did when I was the Source's right-hand demon.

[mal_addict]

I have no idea what that is, but I'm guessing that it wasn't rainbows and kittens.

[demontobeloved]

Considering 'Source' is short for "The Source of all Evil," you guess right.

I'm still new to this explaining about my universe thing.

[mal_addict]

...Fun.

[She laughs] Try explaining your world when it floats through space on the back of a turtle.
