It's like paradise, spread out with a butter knife :: [OPEN]

Who: EVERYONE
What: Réjean has decided that more people ought to celebrate and help raise a bit of dosh for one of his favourite bars. See: flyer.
Where: The Apache.
When: Misdi night and into the wee hours of the morning.
Warnings: Discussion of Pickman's manky feet.

The Apache is much the same as it always is: dimly lit, with the jukebox playing in the background, and the bartender serving whatever's on tap. Tonight, the bar is packed with people from all across the city, different cantons and cohorts, all out to celebrate surviving the fungal plague. Patrons are encouraged to buy tickets for a door prize with the proceeds going to repair the damage tunnelling ants made to the cellar.

"Oh, yes, I'm perfectly fine." Which is a bald-faced lie, but you'd never know it to look at her. "I've had some... minimal experience of a similar situation."

Meeting oneself is either horrifying or enlightening. She finds she's hoping it was the latter for both parties.

"Mm, that's about the long and short of it. I'm given to understand that this sort of... large-scale abduction happens across all sorts of eventualities, but no one ever seems to know why."

She eyes her drink thoughtfully.

"The lack of recognition is likely a psychological fail-safe to prevent us all from succumbing to insanity."

"I can't imagine. I'm glad you're all right."

Ava lets out a sigh. She's given some thought to the question of why. "I wish we had more of a reason than what the brochure rather unhelpfully tells us. But then I suppose if we knew why we might figure a way out."

A pause.

"Or perhaps, it's as you said. The lack of a reason is another failsafe against widespread insanity."
