A Barbarian, A Ninja, and a Rascal party with the Cats! (For SimplyWoo and Winner3)

[SimplyWoo]

"Sure thing!" Katrina replied to Tracy and finished signing people up, as she was doing that she smiled at Estrella, "Thank you for the compliment. Oh, don't worry, Tina never underestimates her opponent, but yeah, I have no doubts that it will be a fun match to watch." She then grinned hearing about Katherine's love for wrestling and would be happy to accept anything. "I hope that speech doesn't mean you are planning to pass the torch soon. I would love to have a friendly match with you during a training session sometime, whenever you are free. I would love to see how your bearhug compares to Oscar's Barbaric Brace." She mentioned with a grin and looking over at Oscar with a wink. She then joined in on the toast and took the shot before she stood up. "I'm going to go hand this list over." She mentioned as she stood up and gave Oscar a few playful baps on his lap with the clipboard before strutting off.

"Thanks cutie! Yes, everyone here is looking so damn good right now!" Rylie blushed at Aurora's compliment as she then turned to Moira, hearing her pondering what she did right, Rylie smiled as she cupped Moira's cheek as she blushed deeper as her fluffy tail curved down around one of Moira's legs. "Well to be fair, everyone's going to get an opportunity to hold the leash, but for you, you will be getting the Moira V.I.P. treatment, only you will be getting one of these." She mentioned as she leaned in and gave Moira a kiss on the cheek before shifting her cheek to nuzzle Moira's cheek. "As for what you did right? Dude, you visited me at the hospital along with Oscar without even knowing me, so there's that." She then took the shot with Moira's toast. "Did we want to get some appetizers or get some food brought over here to go along with our drinks?" Rylie asked as she cupped one hand on top of Moira's head and started to slowly massage her scalp.

Moira blushed at being kissed on the cheek by Rylie. Hrr brain seemed to stop working as well. ”Uhhh… yes. Food. Food is good. Let’s get food to stuff in face.” Moira collected herself and went over to order some tapas and sushi, tugging Rylie along. After ordering they rejoined the others. “Oooo what songs should we do? I know. LET THE BODIES HIT THE FLOOR” Moira exclaimed with glee.

Moira listened to Katherine’s speech with wide-eyed enthusiasm. She was always kept her distance from the veterans but was happy to know there were supportive ones out there. “Aww that’s very kind. Yes when I get more confident in me abilities, I’d love to take you on. I wasn’t sure I’d be in pro wrestling for the long haul. Always moved between gigs in Ireland, ya know. You all make me feel like I belong here.” she stammered.

[winner3]

This bunch was a lively one. Energy and cheer seemed to fill each corner of the room as everyone hit it off in different manners of conversations and interactions.

Kat's rambling earned her a brief heckling from Tracy across the room.

"NERRRRD!" The redhead jeered jokingly. But some sincere, sentimental responses from Oscar and from Moira quickly diverted attention away from this.

Katherine leaned back in her seat and smiled as everyone chimed in. The buxom, muscular luchadora adjusted her posture once more and hunched forward as she got ready to respond to everyone. Katherine would drape an arm over Moira's upper back as a kind gesture. She turned her head to Katrina to wink at her and acknowledge the bluenette's remarks before she took off.

"It won't be my turn to pass the torch for quite a while. I figure ladies like Alaina Sanders and Dana Ashford will be up long before I am." She thought aloud before turning to Moira. The Irish lass's boisterous singing made the smile on Hart's face widen.

"I'm a bit of pro wrestling nerd, so it warms my heart to hear that folks like you and Oscar are finding long-term goals in the sport even if you didn't have them at first. You guys absolutely do belong here. And I'll train with any and all of you guys until I manage to give each of you the confidence to come to believe that for yourselves!" She finished with a thumbs up.

"Oh, and...." she trailed off for a moment.

"Super cool of you to have visited Rylie when she was in the hospital. I had no idea. Was it bad, Rylie? Are you fully recovered?" The Super Kitty directed her questions and concerns to the leashed beauty. It seemed there was more to her than her sultry, cuddly demeanor gave off.

Meanwhile, Tracy had managed to procure a menu from one of the staff. She held it high and waved it as she hollered to everyone.

"Yoooo I got a menu! Who wants to order?! They have hush puppies, you guys! And more drinks!"

Few would notice that Aurora had made her way over to the karaoke machine. She flipped through the songbook and perused the manual.

"Ahhhh, it appears we can reorder the queue of songs. We can play them in any order we'd like. Does anyone want to sing first?" The Lightweight luchadora held the remote for the machine in her hand.

Aurora wasn't as loud as Tracy, but she did hope that by making eye contact here and there, a few folks would take note and volunteer to sing.

[MappleMan7]

Oscar was completely enjoying the vibe from everyone at the table, smiling and laughing along as they joked around and got all mushy with eachother.

"It would be a great honor to have a training day with you or any other swat cat! Though I'll have to see how my schedule pans out. I think I'm going to be really busy in the near future. Still- I'll make the time whenever possible"

Oscar nodded to Katherine before looking over at Tracy, missing Aurora in all the commotion.

"Oo! Put me down for a hush puppy, please! I have no idea what that is but I'll totally try it!"

[SimplyWoo]

Rylie smiled at Katherine's concern as she pulled away from Moira to allow Katherine more freedom to drape her arm over her back as she and responded to Moira's suggestion of let the bodies hit the floor. "I think that might be a good one to add to the list when we are all completely wasted." She then turned her head to respond to Katherine. "Fractured ribs from someone that wanted to send a statement to Oscar and I would say I'm about 95 percent recovered. Thankfully there wasn't that severe a nagging effect when Oscar crushed the fight out of me during our match yesterday and even if there was, I wouldn't mind the pain to continue putting on the performance that we did." She mentioned as she smiled over at Oscar's direction.

She then heard Tracy talk about the menu and drinks and pointed at her. "Drinks for sure! We need to keep this party going." Meanwhile Katrina came back to her seat in time to hear Oscar talk about hush puppies but did grin at Katherine as she sat down hearing her willingness to train with everybody and was definitely here for that. "It's basically fried cornbread sweety. It's really good and goes great with most kinds of dipping sauces or jams." She said as she gave the o.k. symbol with a hand as she smoothed her dress down and crossed one leg over top of the other as she sat back down.

When Aurora asked about who wanted to sing first Rylie raised a index finger up in the air. "Right here cutie, I'm ready to rock!" She mentioned as she patted Moira on the lap and whispered. "Be back hon." She mentioned as she stood up and walked over towards Aurora to take the remote from her. "Gracias." She then readied up her song as she walked over towards the mic, to which some random people were giving her some howls and whistles as Rylie blushed as she got close to the mic. "Ooo, more of that please." She joked as she gave a cute cackle before clearing her throat. "Alright, this song is dedicated to those beautiful badass friends of mine over there, and I assume by the end of the night, even to you sexy cats that came out to play with us." She mentioned as she pointed over to Moira, Kat, Oscar, Aurora, Katherine, and Tracy. She then clicked on the remote to let the music play and closed her eyes as the opening of a Godsmack song started to play as she let the music envelop her. Sure enough when it was Rylie's turn to sing, she wasn't just phoning it in. She wanted to rock and when the song escaped her lips, she definitely caught the audience's attention.

"I'm living incomplete
My mind is racing day to day
It's bleeding every part of me
I've been swimming in desire
That's fueling my soul
But I can't feed this fire alone"

It was during the above verse that Rylie just had her eyes closed as she was looking down at the ground, up until the swimming in desire that's been fueling her soul, then she shot her eyes open to stare over at her friends as her tail swayed to the beat.

"I can't feel alive
If I can breathe the air
That's been frozen
When you're so far away
And I just need to find
A simple kind of way
To keep you closer
'Cause you're every part of me"

During the chorus above she was singing it with feeling as her eyes slowly scanned to each of her friends, old to new to stamp the meaning of the lyrics that she wanted to keep her friends close to her.

"Am I everything you need
Are you craving me the same way
Inside my body screaming
I'm addicted to your taste
And the way you like to show me
How we've become one and the same"

It was with the above verse that Rylie's eyes watered a little bit, but she closed her eyes as a single tear dropped down one cheek before opening her eyes back up, voice never cracking as her face tensed up as she continued to entrance the audience with the same level of intense energy.

"I can't feel alive
If I can breathe the air
That's been frozen
When you're so far away
And I just need to find
A simple kind of way
To keep you closer
'Cause you're every part of me"

It was at this point the song went into it's guitar solo and Rylie started to hop up and down and move from side to side playing the air guitar before bringing the mic back to her lips. "This Cruise ship isn't rocking enough! Let's get it swaying as we're cruising through a storm! Come on!" She shouted out to the crowd to motivate them to head bang and rock with her.

"Every night I've been bleeding
It's tearing me apart down to my bones
Every time I feel completed
There's always one more thing
Reminding me that I'm not whole
How can I let you go?"


It was during the above lyrics that Rylie really belted out and kept the high note towards the end as she clenched her fist and brought it to her chest as she sang from the heart. Honestly, if it wasn't for Kat getting to know her, she wouldn't have been here. She wouldn't have been wrestling. She wouldn't have gotten to know Oscar, Moira, The cats. She would still be without friends, without a job, without a roof over her head.

"I can't feel alive
If I can breathe the air
That's been frozen
When you're so far away
And I just need to find
A simple kind of way
To keep you closer
'Cause you're every part of me
Every part of me
Every part of me"

As the song stopped, Rylie put the mic back on the stand and closed her eyes and took a deep breath before the crowd roared to which she then smiled and opened her eyes back up, throwing up some devil horns and blowing a kiss to the crowd before blushing and walking back to her homies.

”I don’t really have a goal at the moment. I’m seeing more money in LAW than any other gig job I held before in Cork. Just taking it all in. Maybe hardcore champion? I feel like I’m built for that championship… or it’s built for me,” she chuckled and then her eyes went wide upon seeing Oscar again. “OH Scratch that. I want to beat Oscar! I owe him a hug after our training match. So me vs. him on TV. Beating him is me immediate goal,” she beamed.

“I’ll have you know, Ms. Marshall, that any song I pick would be better drunk. So I’m going to just select one and take some more shots before my turn is up.” She playfully stuck her tongue out at Rylie, chugged her whiskey, and ordered a large sake bomb. She drank it while Rylie sang, stopping only to cheer for her. By the time Rylie was done, Moira’s drink was empty. She stumbled her way up the stage, high fiving Rylie as she went. “Nice one dear. Now time for the professional drunkard to do the lord’s work.”

Let the bodies hit the floor
Let the bodies hit the floor
Let the bodies hit the floor
Let the bodies hit the… FLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOR

Beaten, why for
Can't take much more
ONE, nothing wrong with me
TWO, nothing wrong with me
THREE, nothing wrong with me
FOUR, nothing wrong with me

ONE, something's got to give
TWO, something's got to give
THREE, something's got to give NOOOOOOOOOOOOOW

LET THE BODIES HIT THE FLOOR
LET THE BODIES HIT THE FLOOR
LET THE BODIES HIT THE FLOOAAAAGH

LET THE BODIES HIT THE FLOOR
LET THE BODIES HIT THE FLOOR
LET THE BODIES HIT THE FLAAAAAAAAAAAAR

Moira had a good run but was incapable of making it through the second verse. She stumbled down from the stage, pointing in the general direction of her group. “You. Me. Arm wrestling. Now.” It was unclear who Moira was pointing to, but it seemed she didn’t care who her challenger was. She was ready for a challenge.

[winner3]

Karaoke and festivities were in full swing! Everyone seemed to be quite enjoying the company and the vibe. With vocal talent and charisma like Rylie's, and with gusto like Moira's, who could blame anyone for getting swept up in the moment?

The beautiful and enchanting Miss Marshall had no qualms with taking the stage to sing. She volunteered herself to sing the group's first song, tonight. Aurora was all too happy to assist with working the karaoke machine and putting Rylie's song on. She smiled and set it up quickly. And what followed from there was a mesmerizing and impressive impromptu rock concert! Just seconds into the first verse, Kat whistled to herself and leaned slightly toward Katrina.

"Phew! Girl can really sing, huh?" The toned blonde's eyes and expression were filled with nothing but awe. She happily joined in with everyone else when Rylie hit a power chord on her air guitar and beckoned the bargoers to rock this boat as hard as she was rocking in the heat of the moment!

"WOOOOOOOO!!!!"
"WOOOOOOOO!!!!"

When Rylie hit her high note, Katherine and Tracy let out cheers in stereo! Tracy had been collecting her friend's orders in the background. The redheaded luchadora already had a good idea of what Aurora and Katherine probably wanted. Part of the reason she made an announcement out of the fact that the place served hush puppies was that she knew Kat Hart loved them.

Tracy had gotten around to asking some of their new friends about their food orders. But hearing Marshall really get into it here made her bring a hand to her buxom chest and out the food order in early so that she could stop to appreciate Rylie's singing. After allowing Rylie the chance to drink in everyone's reactions and cheers, Tracy was the first to walk up to her on the way back the greet her with a double high-five!

"You killed it up there, girl! You're amazing! We've definitely gotta party more sometime!" Canon would smile and walk back with Rylie.

When Tracy walked off to give Riley props, Aurora picked up the slack for her. She walked over to the group.

"Oscar, Katrina, would either of you be ordering anything? Food? Drinks? I heard one of the gentlemen seated near the equipment say that this place does a pretty mean dark and stormy." The petite luchadora smiled.

It didn't take long for a perhaps very tipsy Moira to rise up and call dibs on the next song. Katherine had taken note of the "goals" the Irish lass voiced earlier. It had gotten a chuckle out of her. Many of the patrons at the karaoke bar speculated about how things would go when Moira got up to go do her thing. But anyone who had paid any mind to the bigger girl's body language had some idea of how things would go down.

"Aw man..." Kat said with a worried expression when she saw Moira stagger. Things often went only one of two ways whenever anyone channeled "hold my beer" energy. There was usually no in-between.

The redheaded heavyweight had spirit if nothing else. Her voice boomed throughout the bar as she sang into the mic. Many folks sang along, even! But as she stumbled and staggered her way off the stage, it became apparent that she might need a hand or two.

"I've got ya, big girl." Hart seemed to have been waiting for this moment. When Moira stumbled down off the stage, Kat had already gotten up and began making her way there. By the time Moira began to point in the group's general direction, Kat was already at her side. The Super Kitty tucked her head under Moira's arm and helped her to one of the tables near the group. She made sure to sit Moira down gently.

"I'll arm wrestle you if you want, hun. But after that, I'm walking you back to your cabin, haha." Katherine laughed it off but the thought soon occurred to her.

"Anyone know where Moira's room is...?" Hart would ask the group.

"I guess if nothing else, she can stay with us Cats for the night. Those sake bombs really hit hard, huh? Guess the barkeep is heavy-handed, tonight."

[MappleMan7]

Oscar was truly enjoying the atmosphere brought to the party as drinks were passed around- though the Barbarian Prince was sure to keep it steady for as he cheered his heart out for Rylie alongside the SWAT Cats and Moria! Hearing Moria's goal in LAW was to take him down eventually, Oscar looked over at Moria and gave her a sincere, heartfelt smile.

"You're... really basing a goal in LAW on beating me? Wow, I uh- hey, that seriously means a lot to me, Moria. You have absolutely no idea how happy that makes me to hear that I inspired something in someone. I would absolutely love to take you on in an official match someday and I'll look forward to seeing how plan to improve to achieve it"

Oscar shot Moria a friendly wink before she went up on stage after Rylie, offering the Rascal a high-five and a head ruffle for her performance just because he felt like teasing her a little before calling out to Aurora for a food order.

"OH! If they have mozza sticks or some kind of good bar food I'll be good for some of those, please! Thank you!"

When Oscar's attention soon turned back to Moria, he looked quite concerned at how Moria was having a hard time walking in a straight line- never mind the fact that the very tipsy Irishwoman couldn't even finish the entire song. Since Katherine seemed to have things handled in helping his pal, Oscar looked back at Aurora.

"Uh... and maybe a pitcher of water for Moria if you can, please. Somebody's been a bit too crazy with drinks. Oh- I think she was bunking up with Rylie, Katherine. Pretty sure she was at least"

Oscar added on, addressing the Super Kitty's question before standing out of his own seat. It was his turn to show off his pipes after all! He would take it to the stage and adjust the mic to make up for his huge height before looking out at the audience and whispering something to one of the stage workers, who nodded their head and let Oscar be as he got ready for the next song of the night.

Rylie smiled and high fived Moira and when she joked about doing the lord's work, Rylie joked back by pretending to cross herself with a hand. "Knock em dead Moira." She mentioned and was then approached by Tracy as she grinned at her and high fived her back with both hands before wrapping a arm around her waist as she walked with her. "Dude, I'd love to party with you more. Speaking of, while Moira is occupied with singing, I believe it's your turn." She mentioned as with her other hand, she extended the end of her leash towards Tracy with a flirty smirk as she was to now become Tracy's pet Racoon lady.

As Aurora walked over to Kat to ask if she would like anything to eat or drink. She stood up and walked over beside Aurora to look at the menu with her as she turned her face to Aurora to smile back at her. "I'll order a dark and stormy if you're having one." She also heard Oscar chime in. "Oooo Mozzarella sticks do sound good." She also had an idea of sharing a cheese stick Lady & The Trump style with Oscar that made her giggle to herself and blush slightly. "What about you Aurora, what will you be eating? Also I'm free to share my food with you if you want to have some when it arrives."

After Aurora would respond, Katrina would then walk over to Rylie and give her a big hug after her performance. "I understood your message, thank you." She whispered to Rylie, knowing Rylie was singing about the value of her friends as she gave her a kiss on the cheek as Rylie smiled and hugged Kat back. "Hey, that was my thank you message, not the other way around." Rylie laughed out loud before pulling away to return at Tracy's side. "You want some food girl?"

It was then time to watch Moira and her performance as Rylie nodded her head to the music. "Bodies? Nice, that's one of my jams!" She mentioned as she cheered for Moira. She then looked on in concern as Moira started to stagger and then challenged someone to a arm wrestling contest as she frowned at how quick Moira got drunk. It felt like this night was only just starting. When Hart asked about the room, Rylie chimed in. "I don't know if you watched my match with Oscar, but remember when Oscar tossed me into the open porthole window? That's the room we were sharing." She then managed to smile a little. "Although I don't think she would mind if you Cats help take care of her tonight."

[ScylliasExoter]

Unfortunately for her, Moira’s day drinking had caught up with her. The shots with the group put her over the edge and she quickly started crashing. Moira got up to sing the song. She knew the words by heart. She believed she was singing them. But only the first verse came out. Moira stumbled off the stage and, despite desiring to arm wrestle her entire party with everything in her being, she was unable to remain standing on her own. Moira, was brought to a chair and sat down with the party. She sat there in a stupor while everyone else partied on.
