you gotta fight for your right to party

[ jim kirk wasn't the captain of this station. he wasn't even a ranking officer but he knows enough about people to know that, if you put them through the wringer over and over again, they're going to break without some sort of downtime. and jim's not about to be on a station where everyone's breaking down. no, he hadn't come back from death to die again.
so, he goes back to his roots. he goes back to the days where he'd spent all of his time in bars, hitting on pretty girls and boys, and getting into fights. maybe possibly they can cross out fights tonight but the rest of the stuff? nah, jim wants it all.
he trawls his way through the station to see what they have, first of all. and then he gets to work. the replicators don't serve great booze but it's booze nonetheless and he gets those flowing, filling bottles and glasses and sliding them out for anyone to have. he fiddles with the lights in the bar to make it more appropriate and even asks this new ai on board for some music. if that doesn't work, everyone's just going to be treat to him singing.
then, he pulls out chairs and benches from the rooms and lines the halls. he wants everyone to be together, to talk to each other and the halls seem like the most well traveled place. he draws signs that lead people to the pool where he's tossed a bunch of small things in to take the place of beach balls and toys. he even suggests chicken fights because who can resist a good chicken fight?
is it sacrilegious to see up makeshift twister in the chapel? oh well because that's where it is. dancing, he decides, is best for observation deck so he asks for a little more music filtered in there because who wouldn't want to dance with that beautiful backdrop?
on the command deck, jim rigs up some lights, making it more apt for a party and sets up a few tables with cards and other random things to signify money. if people want to do some gambling, lose their shirts, jim's not going to stop you. he prefers strip poker, really, but there are youngsters around so behave. somewhat. ringing the room, he finds spots to set up arm wrestling tables because who doesn't want to show off their strength? not jim, he knows so many people would beat him but maybe other people want to grab the title of 'strongest on the station.' jim will make you a medal and everything.
he wants to do something with the library but he doesn't want to wreck it. so, poetry readings. there's no mic but he does set up a chair to act as a stage and even pushes various other chairs around it to act as an audience. don't get too wild in here. the nonexistent librarian won't like it.
lastly, he finds himself in the hangar. there are shuttles in there that he doesn't want to break but it's a big space so fuck it, he goes for a fight club type atmosphere. people need to get the tension out somehow and while fucking likes bunnies would be ideal, asking for an orgy tonight would be too much. so, he draws chalk outlines of various rings for various different matches. he makes rules that say this isn't till the death, be fair, no hitting below the belt and, if jim were to get into the ring, you weren't allowed to mess up his hair.
he was the party organizer, he got to make the rules!
once everything seemed to be set up, he just started knocking on doors at random to get people out of their rooms and out into the open. this station was stupid but he wasn't going to let things fall apart without a fight. ]
[ it's a party and it's open for everyone!! post your tl's, tag around to others and just enjoy yourself. there's no sinister motive here except getting that sweet, sweet cr. if you want to wildcard something being at the party, plz feel free to do that within reason, of course! hit me up at
spoonishly for questions/plotting! ]

[ he's just the tiniest bit cynical. no regrets. ]
For people meaning the ones with the power and the money, right?
[ wasn't that how it always worked? ]
no subject
[ There's a bitterness to her words that she can't hold back. Politicians who only work for the powerful make her want to rage about civic duty and abuse of power, but it's news to no one that corruption exists within government. ]
no subject
[ but really, they weren't even real politicians. they had the titles but they were controlled by the meths. they bent over and let themselves get fucked for a tidy handout. ]
Being for the people working out well for you?
no subject
It always has. I served two terms as Queen of Naboo and my successor asked me to serve in the Senate. I don't regret my choices and I'm not going to let anything, even attempts on my life, deter me from doing what is right.
no subject
People trying to kill you that fuckin' often?
no subject
[ Her expression shifts and she looks back out toward the dancers in an attempt to conceal the tense sorrow and anger vying for dominance across her features. ]
Though it appears he was right to worry. We were attacked just before I was brought here, and I fear many of my staff and bodyguards may have lost their lives.
no subject
Wish I could say that you were free from attack here but you're really fucking not. Maybe you'll get lucky and only lose a limb or some shit.
no subject
If that happens, then so be it. All that matters is finding a way for everyone to return home safely.
no subject
[ he scoffs and his leg gives an answering ache. that's just the physical stuff. there's plenty of mental shit that he's going to have to deal with for awhile too. ]
Oops.
no subject
[ Crossing her arms over her chest, she turns to look at him, not in defensiveness but rather curiosity. ]
What was your life like before this? If you don't mind my asking.
no subject
[ not entirely a lie but not really all that forthcoming either. ]
Spent nearly the last two hundred years in a cold prison. They woke me up to solve someone's murder so I've spent the last little while getting the shit kicked out of me or getting shot at.
