Who: Yukari

couldntpullthetrigger, any female CR of hers that wants to come, and any female CR of THEIRS that would've been invited for a night out. Like Six Steps To Kevin Costner, except only girls are involved.
When: Sometime Between July 2nd and 3rd(tm)
Where: La Coniglietta, Capablanca
What: Girl's night out at a club. Unfortunately, Yukari forgot to check what kind of club it is after she got a pass to a VIP exclusive room. OH WELL :D
Rating: DD for boobs. It is a cabaret after all. (Will update if it gets beyond anything you can expect at an adult night establishment)

[After the win at the Battle of Graupera, Yukari had found herself in possession of a pass and instructions on how to turn it in for what she had thought was just an exclusive hotspot of a club in Capablanca. Fortunately, it is indeed a hotspot of activity, men and women and somewhat less identifiable beings from all over gathering to try to get in past the burly bouncers and into the famous late-night club.

The pass got her entire group in easily enough, but upon walking in to the dim lights, the background music, preparing to set the stage for the show, and the...

... Well, just walking in the door gained a great view of a nearly-topless woman striding past with a notable bounce in her step, and Yukari felt the color drain from her face a little.

Oh god. What kind of club did she get invited to!?

The VIP room is on the second floor, sequestered off from the staircase by a lush, velvet curtain. There's a balcony that looks down onto the main floor and stage, with seats around tables, and they have their own, private couple of staff that wait hand and foot for their orders, and seem... well, particularly flirtatious. Likely because they want to get a good tip, but to be honest, personal space is not really a thing for long. They seem to like sitting on laps. It's terrible.]

OOC; y'all can treat it like a mingle, enjoy the 'shows', have fun, enjoy sexy wererabbits and anyone who isn't secure in their sexual orientation wondering why it's so flustering to have a rabbit girl shoving boobs in their face.

It did make sense, Lola was very personable and cute. She knew how to make that sell. "I've been meaning to get better, but a lot has come up."

Being kidnapped from her home to fight in a war does that.

"Oh," Lola wasn't sure how to go about fixing that. And the idea she can't help does visibly seem to bother her, friends are a good thing to have. Because Lola called everyone friends. But her scale of friendship was a lot looser. Generally if she friended you online she'd call you friend in person. "Is this why you took us to a stripclub? To make friends?"

Yeah, it does that to a lot of people.

Then again, Yukari is pretty sure people don't have the definition of of friendship she does She's fine at meeting people. It's the idea of trusting them enough... that's where it catches her. Not many people have given her a reason to trust them over the years. So she rather happily doesn't.

"... No," she sighs, and it's nearly a groan of frustration. Of course everyone is... "Don't get the wrong idea - I had no idea this was a... club like this. They don't exactly tell you up front. I thought it'd be more like... a regular nightclub. Where you can dance and hang out if you want to. Yanno, something slightly more acceptable to bring people you don't know well to?"

"But that was the point of this trip, to make friends. You just weren't expecting so many exposed nipples?" Lola wanted to be clear that this is why Yukari was bringing a bunch of girls out here. Even if this little adventure had gone horribly wrong. Which Lola was not quite sure she believed. Even if she accidentally carried a vibrator around for days, that was totally different from accidentally going to a skin bar.

"Why the big gesture and not just... asking to hang out?"

"Well, honestly, I more or less know everyone that's here... I wouldn't say it was entirely to make friends," she's not sure how to explain this. She's also from a canonpoint and a canon where the entire cast are sort of antisocial jerks that have a hard time relating to other people. "But more I guess to do something fun with people I already knew."

To the second part... "But it wasn't really such a big gesture. I got the VIP pass for free, and why would I use it just for myself? It'd be easier to just get a group of people I know and use it that way... I wasn't really thinking that hard about it."

"But you said you're not close enough to call any of us friend," Lola isn't the sharpest knife in the shed. But she has ears, she does listen, and she is good at being a good friend to people. Even possible lesbians who have trust issues. Lola wasn't sure what all didn't make sense, but it felt... weird, something seemed to be missing. And she was attentive, but just not getting it.

She guessed if someone just gave her tickets to a thing, she'd take whoever she was closest to. Unless she knew someone who would enjoy it more than her friends would. Lola knows Shay would pass on inviting her to any sort of sport thingie, in order to invite Frankie or Goldi who actually liked some sports. And here it wasn't limited, so bringing everyone is fun. "So... why did you only invite girls?"

"Doesn't mean I don't wanna hang out, though," she's... she's definitely not telling something. There's something she's withdrawn and closed off about, and she doesn't want to keep on this topic of conversation, so she's trying to be as vague about it as possible. Because this is so not the place, even if Lola was the person, to talk about all the shit that dictates her actions.

... The second question garners a sigh.

"Ever heard of a girl's night out?" she shakes her head. "Plus, I don't trust some of the guys I know not to be idiots, and I'm really glad I didn't now, seeing what kind of place this is."

"So... you want to go out with us to party, like friends. But you don't want to think of us as friends. Got it." There's no hint Lola's judging her on this, just stating it to keep the idea clear in her head. Lola's got to be getting it wrong, cause this seems weird. Who wouldn't want friends?

"Well, yeah, I guess..." Not that bringing boys to a topless bunny bar would do her any favors. As she'd have no luck keeping any guy's attention with such competition, but she was used to girls night was about either forgetting about boys or trying to meet boys. Or both, sometimes, that was possible!

"Well just because I'm not gonna spill my guts out to you doesn't mean I don't want to hang around you. You make it sound like it's... worse than it is, really." ... Maybe it's her definition of 'friends' that Yukari has wrong, but... she doesn't think so. "I wouldn't have invited you at all if I didn't at least wanna hang out."

And yes, taking a break from boys is at least 40% of what's going on here, because Yukari, while she's more or less forgiven her boyfriend for his little breach of trust, still thinks it's more fun to hang out with just the girls every so often. "Like I said, I didn't think this was this kinda bar. If it had been just a regular nightclub, this whole thing would be a whoooole lot less weird."
