Ziggy Stardust Nexus Album Release Party

[ziggyplayedguitar]

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.]

Those eyes and that impressive plumage had Balthazar staring out of sheer curiosity more than anything. He could feel his vessel's side wanting to find out more about Rota and what sort of person he truly was. The feelings he was getting off the man were truly unique.

"Yes, I'm Balthazar. The newer of the two and partner to Jack. He's around here somewhere, no doubt with Ziggy or mingling with the guests."

Taking the seat offered to him, he smiled as he sat down, sliding his drink onto the bar top. The angel's eyes once more drawn to Rota's unique and special appearance.

"You really are a beautiful creature, Rota. I hope you don't mind me saying this. Your plumage and those eyes of yours. My vessel, Seth, he's an explorer and artist. He's very taken with meeting new forms of life and loves to care for nature."

His eyes stay on the other angel. He too is curious about the other celestials here. "You feel different than the King's angel."

It wasn't a slight, just an observation. His eyes momentarily shift out to the crowd even though he knows he can't find this person. He has no idea what they look like.

"I am an embodiment of the life on Earth. Dullness wouldn't do it justice." However, as he speaks to the angel, his mind reaches out to the sleeping human soul in greeting. Welcome. You are one of mine child. A heart like mine.

Balthazar felt Rota's eyes upon him as the words were also spoken to him. No, he was not Lucifer's angel but another existing within the same universe but his heart belonged to another. A rogue with a big heart and red hair. Yet, the next words caused the angel to close his eyes as he felt Rota's telepathy reach into his vessel, pulling out Seth's conscience. It was a remarkable and rather touching experience.

"I hear you. My goodness, you are so beautiful. Forgive me, but my I have to know more. You are of nature and I can almost feel your warmth and being around me. Like a warm rainforest or mangrove. I too, am a man of nature, spending most of my life exploring the far reaches of the planet in search of new species. Documenting as I go, I try to capture the beauty of life in my art."

Balthazar's eyes still close as he allowed Seth to commune with Rota.

[celestialpeacock]

He's sure he will meet this angel's lover. Lucifer was collecting angels to him, many angels and Rota knew why. Lucifer sought an end to the war and suffering. It was a noble cause and one reason Rota had agreed to be here. He also desperately yearned to reconnect with the creator.

If it pleases your angel, you can meet me in person some time in the future. I am the energy of diversity and part of the energy of the creator of the universe. You name the places I cherish most. There are angels that do the same, on Earth and across the universe. They document the beauty Lucifer brought into being at the very beginnings of creation.

The angel carried on sipping his drink whilst he allowed Rota to commune with his vessel. Seth, being in his element, was thriving on learning the knowledge around Rota and what he represented. The telepathy was something he'd gotten used to being a vessel to an angel.

"Yes, I would much like to meet up with you sometime. Perhaps, we could meet in the Wilds out in the open amongst the trees? I do enjoy walking and sketching on my own out in the company of nature. Oh, how wonderful. Energy itself...I am curious about you, Rota."

Balthazar opened his eyes slowly just keeping his focus on Rota, enjoying the link and could almost feel his vessels joy at such a meeting.

[celestialpeacock]

"I can come whenever you call. we'll walk in the wilds and satiate your curiosity."

Rota holds the mental link open for the human soul but turns his attention the the angel.

"Your vessel has an adventurous streak."

[angelic_asshole]

"I would very much like that. Just meeting you in person, walking through the woods out in the Wilds. Feeling the wind on our faces and the breath exhale through the morning mists."

Balthazar smiled and swallowed softly, feeling the rush of emotion well up inside of his vessel. Seth had indeed felt a strong link to Rota and all that he represented.

"Oh, he does. There are times I watch him venturing out on his own into the Wilds with his sketch pad and satchel. He loves exploring and saturating himself in nature."

[celestialpeacock]

I will come to you in a few days, in the morning at sunrise.

Sure. Rota had just invited himself.

"Explorers can be destructive. I hope he isn't one that will gain my ire." The angel had sudden memories of the conquistadors and worse the people in more modern times that destroyed his places of sanctuary.

[angelic_asshole]

"Thank you, Rota. I look forward to our meeting together."

Balthazar was fine with that as long as Seth was fine with it, which he was. To be honest it would be healthy for the man to start making more friends with Nexus residents. The angel would only encourage it.

"Indeed they can, yet Seth is a very caring individual. When I met him I know what sort of man he was when I looked inside his heart. He seeks out challenge but not at the expense of others."

[celestialpeacock]

"Then I welcome his company, and yours." Rota tells the other angel.

"I feel like I know your vessel more than you now." The angel explains, obviously encouraging his companion to open up.
