I'll just live on in the Dark

WHO: Anyone heading to the Iceberg Lounge
WHERE: At a damn fine building downtown
WHEN: 12/12; Night
WARNINGS: Will be edited if necessary.
SUMMARY: Opening night!
FORMAT: Whatever you want! Tag yo'selves in!



Walking into the bar is like walking into a wide open room, but the dimmed lights never seem to be bright enough to catch every detail in one swoop. To the far right wall is the bar, and a long bar it is, with bartenders lining it spaced by about five feet or so in between. Nobody actually sits at the bar, of course. The bartenders are there to make drinks for the servers. While both the bartenders and server girls wear tuxedos, the women's are made for the intent to actually catch the eye, of course. Fishnets replace slacks, dressshirts cut much lower than necessary, and tophats on each woman's head. They grin, and flirt, and make their way, but the moment a hand drifts too far, there's the legion of bouncers who line the walls, watching for any infraction. The Penguin is, after all a chauvenist, but he is no pig.

The middle of the wide area is devoted to tables, an endless sea of white clothed tables, each one a unique and different ice sculpture in the center. Each one unique, lit from beneath with a light that lets an almost wet light radiate from each table.

And of course to the left is the stage, performers that never cease to move, or sing, or whatever is up for the next part of the night. Breaks between each are sparse, quick, and the music never becomes too loud. And the stage, it is lined with penguins. A bit of irony, perhaps, but Penguin wouldn't begrudge his prior career as a gotham rogue. Perhaps he even reveled in the reminder. Out there for everyone to see.

Regardless, there would be no grand plots or schemes tonight. Just a party.

Weird to agree with him on something.

"Planning for the long-term, then?" She never did. Not even in Gotham.
meowminx: (take the wheel)

"No one wants that." She'd been living in luxury most of the time she'd been here herself.
meowminx: (breathe)

"Or be stuck here ad nauseam." She didn't sound too bitter.
meowminx: (uh huh)

"Never know when he'll show up." Selina sounds a bit disgusted if anything.
meowminx: (joke's on you)

"And who really cares what that psycho thinks." She glances around. "He hasn't shown up yet?"
meowminx: (breathe)

"Or perhaps he'll stay far far away." Clearly her preference.
meowminx: (bring it on)

"His entire existence is causing a scene." She glances around. "And it's too nice a place to get trashed right after opening."
meowminx: (glance)

"It would be nice to have a new spot to stop by after," she said with a little smile. Nothing like buttering up the little butterball.

"I hope so. Always good to know who you can trust with the important business." Another little smile.
meowminx: (really not safe)

She gave him a calculating little smile. "That's always good to hear."
