The World Has Got a Smile Today, the World Has Got a Glow (Voltron Holiday Party Log)
Who: The Attack on Voltron House and YOU! Seriously, if you have Voltron CR, you're invited!
Where: Attack on Voltron House, Four Island
When: Around December 11
Summary: The Voltrons have a human/Altean holiday party at their house, come on by!
Rating: PG to PG-13, will warn as necessary
When Shiro proposed celebrating Grogory Day back at the harvest festival, Allura had honestly been touched by the suggestion, even more so when the rest of the household agreed. (Especially coming from Keith and Pidge, who liked their peace and quiet.) So after sitting down with a calendar and making a graphing calculator earn its keep, Allura determined that Grogory Day would be about December 8th. Of course, that was a weekday, so the invitations she sends out a few weeks beforehand (to give people time for travel) say it’s that Saturday evening instead. (And given the number of high-level trainers in the house, guests are more than welcome to request a ride.) And since it seems to be the main Earth holiday, why not make it an early Christmas party, too?
When people arrive, the spacious beach house is decked out with lights, mostly in shades of blue, and the interior beckons people to come out of the brisk and damp sub-tropic air, warm and bright and spacious (which it needs to be with the possible crowds), soft and cheery Poké-holiday music winding through the rooms, with interludes from Jaskier and his Wigglytuff throughout the evening.
As for refreshments, while Hunk might not be here, the non-Shiro members of the household are able to set out a decent spread from all their cultures. Lance contributes a host of Cuban recipes from golden brown tostones and empanadas, to roasted pernil with juicy meat draped in crispy skin, served with rice and black beans. A wintery gratin filled with mushrooms and kabocha squash, baked Brie topped with a rosehip jam in lieu of juniberries and wrapped in puff pastry, an assortment of Christmas cookies (including but certainly not limited to gingerbread and peanut butter blossoms), and an island of drinks featuring mugs of warm coffee, glasses of sweet coquito, slow cookers of mulled berry wine and apple juice, and a bowl with an extremely blue punch. And treats for the Pokémon as well, naturally. Of course, if guests want to contribute to the feast, they’re more than welcome!
(Also, at some point in the evening, Lance might have stolen Shiro's Gallade to help plant mistletoe here and there. Do with this information what you will.)
So come, eat, drink, mingle with old friends and make some new ones! And enjoy the night, no matter which holiday you’ve come to celebrate!
[[OOC: This is a mingle log, so feel free to make your own top-levels and such, and have fun!]]

[Geralt might have at least learned about the young space elf princess returning and being the one behind this whole get-together. Allura had been a bit tied up to greet Jaskier and company right as they walked in the door, but once she has a free moment, she calmly makes her way over to Geralt's corner with a nod of a bow.]
You must be Geralt. Jaskier's mentioned you quite a bit. [Which is a Gross Understatement, and they both know it.] It's nice to finally be able to meet you.
no subject
Whatever the bard's said, at least half of it's exaggeration and another quarter is an outright lie.
[Just. Starting off with that, because he's learned that Jaskier likes to fluff up his reputation and that hasn't really stopped just because they're in the land of magical dogfighting.]
You're Allura. I guess I have you to thank for the drinks.
[He's stuck with the wine mostly, and it's a far cry better than what he used to get served back on the Continent.]
no subject
[A soft chuckle.]
Oh, I'm sure it's a better ratio than that. And you're quite welcome, although you'll have to thank Shiro for the drinks; he's been an excellent bartender tonight.
[Who knew that Shiro could do something kitchen-related and NOT fill the house with black smoke?]
