Why not in the Nexus had started all of this and now skekSa's bar had glitter and space themed drinks for the night, karaoke and a band playing for the release of a new album. Ziggy had decided this was the best course since so much of his family and friends couldn't go into his world to be there for his own party in his own world.

Of course, as with any good party this one was open to any who had stumbled into it and there were those directly invited as well. And flashy posters too. He was going through the ends of a sound check with the band when the bar opened.

There was a merch table, with the usual swag and new album to buy on CD and Vinyl, where they would be signing autographs and doing the whole meet and greet thing. Why not have fans in more than one universe? It had been a trip explaining this all to Mick. Weird and Gilly before dragging them through the portal. Ziggy still imagined there was going to be some crazy moments later in the night. They didn't even know he was an alien, or half alien anywway. All of this was going to blow their minds for sure.

After the show they had plans to spend the night just hanging out with drinking, karaoke, a DJ, and the usual bar fare. Ziggy had left Sa to the food and drink though he had put in a few requests for food his own species could eat.

Ziggy fussed with everything before heading backstage to drink and get dressed. About an hour after the bar opened they came out on stage and played through the whole album front to back plus a few from the previous.

[OOC: Feel free to mingle, karaoke, DJ, dancing, drinking, etc. Will post the band meet and greet below at the swag table as a top level. Any questions feel free to DM me here or on Discord.]

"We're working on some right now," he offers back with a grin, showing Ziggy his nicely-glittered cocktail he put down on the signing table for a moment while they were chatting.

Dorian knows how much Toby's been looking forward to seeing Ziggy live, so anything that makes this a more exciting experience for the vampire is good in his book. It's fun to watch the other man get this worked up and excited, because Toby excitement always seems to involve a zest for life that he hasn't seen in many other people over the course of his long, long life. It's infectious, and does a good job at raising his spirits even when he's in darker or grumpier moods.

"Oh, this..." There might be a small uptick of greed and interest in Dorian's eyes as he watches the Anthean pull out the rare vinyl. What a singular and precious item. They're going to keep that one in nice condition and not play it often, right, Toby? "Isn't this vinyl rather rare?"

"Ahh!!!" Toby is likely bruising his soulmate's arm right now as he legitimately squeals with delight, first from the kiss and then again from all the goodies Ziggy showers on them. God, this is honestly one of the best nights of his life and he is so glad Dorian is here with him to experience it ...even if that experience includes his flailing, bruising, and screaming at inappropriate volumes with glee.

"Oh my God! I've seen these in passing but I never actually had one! And we... You're giving this to us?!" He's not really in control of himself right now but he's got enough control to do what he feels is necessary in this moment. Letting go of Dorian's arm, Toby carefully (and with an excessively light touch) takes Ziggy's face in his hands and kisses the Anthean on the lips for this unbelievable gift. He doesn't linger at all after the kiss, though he's grinning from ear to ear as he turns and gives his boyfriend a (slightly uncoordinated) kiss on the cheek. "Darling, you and I are going to have a very good night when we get home."

A fantastic concert, a handful of vintage tees, and now multiple vinyls, including a very rare one he never thought he'd see in person. Yeah... tonight is definitely one of the best nights he's had in a very long time. There's very little else that could make this any better.

Tonight he rates beneath Ziggy in terms of who gets the first kiss, and Dorian honestly gets it. At an event like this one Bowie is king. He chuckles at all of the squealing and doesn't quite take his eyes off the remaining albums. He really wants one to keep in a safe condition along with the other curiosities, works of art and literature he keeps in the townhouse. It's not something he thinks he'll ever get to share with friends on his Earth anytime soon, but simply having it as a memento for capturing the memories from tonight is enough. It's also a genuinely rare and excellent piece, and he'd be foolish not to try and collect it like the magpie of the arts that he is.

"If they're leftovers, would you mind if I bought an extra one?"

Unlike meeting Ziggy, he's less interested in visiting with the Anthean's family when there's the rest of everything else that's going on to experience. When the opportunity is offered he starts searching for a way to extract himself politely to do a little exploring to take in all of the rest of the party.

"Why don't I hold onto these," he says, picking up all of the merchandise they've bought, "and you say hello for the both of us?" he directs at Toby. "There are a few interesting faces I've seen here that I'd like to introduce myself to before the night's over and everyone's lost to the Nexus."

From: [personal profile] rockandrollvampire
In no universe could Toby possibly love Dorian more than he does right now. After one last squeal, the vampire turns to his boyfriend and draws him into a long, passionate kiss with hands on either side of the man's face. He grins at the man when they part. "Stay out of trouble and I promise you as much of it as you can handle when we get home." There's no possible universe in which they both don't wake up hungover and still thoroughly satisfied from what Toby has in mind for them. This will be a night to stand above most others for years to come, if he plays his cards just right.

With one last, lingering kiss (and a very suggestive grab of his partner's backside), the vampire takes a breath and finally parts himself from Dorian. Still grinning like an absolute idiot, he turns his attention back to Ziggy. "Yes, I would love very much to meet your family." How many more Bowies can he meet in one night? Only time will tell!
