Heeeeeey there my good people! I have an announcement.

I want to get to know you all better, mingle a little, you know? So I'm having a party at my place! Everyone is invited!

There will be all the wine you can drink and music. I couldn't get a cow on short notice, and people were giving me funny looks when I started asking around, so for the feast, we uh, just have to settle for less at the moment.



Oh yeah! Gershom, I have a special gift for you.

Me? That's very kind of you, but why?

[What he really wants to say is 'really???']

un: winedad

[vapelife]

Erm, well, it's no big deal really! You were one of the first people I met, going through the same jazz as me and all, and I reward who show me favor!

[accidentallich]

[This isn't going to make him a bad Jew is it?? You should be nice to people even if they're gods???]

It was my pleasure to help.

[vapelife]

[Dionysus can't help you there, Gershom.]

Yeah, that was something real nice, so let me show the appreciation back!

[accidentallich]

[He's having a minor crisis right now but It's Fine.]

I'd be honored to accept. What is it?

[notgrande]

All the wine you can drink at no charge?

You're going to be pretty popular.

un: winedad

[vapelife]

Mortals do seem to love me once they've accepted the good vine.

But yeah, my man. Drink to your heart's content.

[notgrande]

Mortals?

I'll warn you because I'm so nice, but I'm not cheap to buy drinks for.

[vapelife]

[He's gonna laugh at that. Paying for wine?]

I'm Dionysus, the god of wine and madness. I don't need to buy any drinks.

free wine? for real?

un: winedad

[vapelife]

All you can drink! I'll keep the cups full.

[relieable]

huh nice
is there a catch

[vapelife]

A catch? Hmm. [He has to think about whether mortals would find his terms a catch at all.]

Well, you gotta come to the party...

[bloodyroses]

Count me in, almost all the parties I've ever been invited to in my life have been stuffy bullshit where I wasn't allowed to do anything I'd regret later.

un: winedad

[vapelife]

Doesn't sound like you've ever had a proper feast then, huh?

This won't be any Great Dionysia but maybe, well, eventually I'll be able to work up to that!

Re: un: winedad

[bloodyroses]

I get the sweet, sweet joy of Misrule, but that's only three days out of the year.

Otherwise, well. It's kind of hard to escape the fact that everyone's watching you and your family to swoop down on the first social fuckup you make for their own benefit.

[vapelife]

Only three? Great Dionysia is a six day holiday! You're missing out if this Misrule is a good holiday.

Hmm, overbearing family it sounds like? Or disliked nobles?

un: zeppeli

[casaposa]

You had planned to cook an entire cow for this?

un: winedad

[vapelife]

Haha, I didn't say anything about cooking!

The cow was supposed to be for the sacrifice.

[casaposa]

The what?

[vapelife]

The sacrifice! It's to bless the feast.

un: nekocchi

[envycatwalk]

What do you mean 'settle for less'?

Is there going to be a smaller animal in place of the cow, or...?

[vapelife]

Uhm, I didn't actually think about that. Man, that might have been a good idea, maybe a goat would have been easier to get?

Aaaanyway, what I meant is that there won't be a sacrifice before the feast. I used what I was told was about a week's worth to purchase a banquet. Wanted it to be proper, you know?

[envycatwalk]

G...What's the whole sacrifice for? Is this like, a cult?

I guess that might be proper in some places, but...

...Well, no matter. If it's not happening, that's fine. It'll still be just as good without. I'll probably be coming alongside my brother.

[vapelife]

You don't have to be part of my cult to join to party, chap. No worries. All you seem to be real concerned about cults here? Very strange!

But anyway, it's tradition! A thanksgiving. Normally the sacrifice would, well, be in my honor, but I'm honoring all of you this time around. Though like I said, no live animal, unfortunately. Maybe I could just get a fresh fish.

The more the merrier!
