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.]

When Luce answers it startles Jack and he steps back a little awkwardly. He looks to the woman but the eye comes right back to the floating thing.

However, revealing that they know Ziggy's family relieves some of the tension.

"I'm related to Ziggy. We're the same species." Jack tells them warily, though his appearance probably gave that part away. They nearly look like twins.

Luce drifted back slowly when the other man stepped back, not wanting to startle him with the movement. If any emotions were to be sensed from the little Ghost, it was mostly curiousity, concern as well as compassion. He genuinely cared about other people. This in a way, echoed in his Guardian, who was watching the exchange. It was interesting to note some kind of deep connection between the pair. Like their life forces were intertwined somehow; intrinsically linked.

"I had wondered if you were related." Katiri said with a small smile. "The resemblance is uncanny."

"Ohh, you are an Anthean? It is an honor to meet you." Luce bobbed, tones cheerful and polite. He thought of something he recalled from before and added: "If the bright lights of my shell bother your eyes, I can change it to something more comfortable." He knew Anthean eyes were sensitive, from what he had learned thus far. "I just saw all the bright posters and couldn't help myself. I don't use this look often." Considering he would light up like an obvious target on a battlefield it was a bad idea.

"His partner thought I was a clone." Jack shrugs. "I'm not. No one knows how we're related yet but we're the same kind of hybrid."

Any look at Jack will reveal his mind is strange, oddly empty and devoid of memory. Parts of his mind are blank and others are suppressed. There is a lot of emotions coming off of him, most of all is suspicion, fear, and curiosity that is mostly directed at Luce.

"I guess I am." Jack tells the Ghost. "I don't know really. I was vaporized at home and don't remember anything."

"The lights don't bother me. Ziggy thinks they partially blinded me or did something to my eyes too." Jack's words come uncertain and wary.
