OPEN;
When; Saturday and Sunday, February 16-17
Rating; Individual threads may vary!
Characters; Everyone is welcome! This is an open log for Polyites and 4th Wallers alike, so just specify if it's an open thread or if you have 4th walling rules in the comment or subject line!
Summary; It's been a 4th Wall tradition to open up the Blue Light for mingling between the masses since even before Rosella took charge of it, and she certainly doesn't see any reason to change that tradition anytime soon.
Log;
The lucky thing about the days when the visitors come is that they do follow a sort of pattern--once per season, or thereabouts, the floodgates open and the tidal wave of unfamiliar faces comes pouring into the city to mingle about for a weekend. It's not predictable the way that some things are predictable, but for someone who's lived in the City for four and a half years now (and she has), it gets to be...well, anticipated, at the least. The last time everyone had come around was in November, and it'd been a fair few months since, and now spring was drawing nearer with every day and--oh, we haven't seen the visitors come about in a while, have we?
So while the Blue Light isn't precisely prepared for the rush of chattering guests, it's still certainly better off than it might've been. Nearly a year of practice at running things has made Rosella considerably more confident in the way she manages her staff, and the usual affairs of business are running about as smoothly as anyone could expect. Drinks are poured, laughter fills the air, and the band is doing an admirable job of setting the mood with a selection of swing classics (and a swing arrangement of Greensleeves, out of secret self-indulgence) that keep a fond and reminiscent smile solidly on Rosella's face.
So come on in, take a load off, try the food, have a drink; if you're feeling so inspired, head on over to the open space cleared near the band and try to catch a pretty partner for a dance. And if you're looking for Rosella, well, she'll be behind the bar practicing her drink-mixing and taking the time out to chat with anyone willing to stop and say hello.

Sometimes I think if the wedding hadn't--
[Pause.]
...I don't know why they think I can't do it on my own, Stevie.

[As if Steve wouldn't be there with her]
They want to protect you. I want to protect you, too. But I know that this isn't something that you need protection from.

Grandmother doesn't want me to be a tough corporate slugger, I know. But company politics can't possibly be more cutthroat than high school.
