Jaci_Rain stood to the side watching approvingly as her workers finished the last touches of decorating the big room.  She was sure this would be the kind of party that the Dance Hall had never seen before, considering her mother Jaci had been a bit more reserved than what she was, but all was fair in love, war, and parties, right??

Black and red lacy curtains had been hung for a more dramatic effect, and candles would be the only lighting used tonight to provide a more romantic atmosphere.  A band had been brought in from the west coast to provide entertainment and she had employed Robert and Monica to act as servers for her guests in their special costumes that would add to the theme.

She had learned the special recipe for the homemade liquor called Naughty and Nice that had been passed down in her family for many generations when she was only a child.  Her mother had been much more secretive about selling it, but Jaci_Rain wanted to make it available to all who wanted it and what better way to help people know they wanted it than to have a Taste Tester of all of the many flavors she had created it.  Her mother had preferred the strawberry flavor, but she had been up all night making a variety of different options to choose from in hopes of reaching even more customers.

A table sat in front of the stage with the many flavors of Naughty and Nice set out for all to see:  Strawberry, Apple,  Cherry, Berry, Mango, Pineapple, Watermelon, Sugar and Spice, Lemonade, and Hot and Spicy.

The invites had been sent out and the fliers had been handed out, now all that was left was for the guests to arrive.  She walked over the door, and placed the open sign out front.....

Jaci_Rain comes over to her new guest and greets Cody with a smile, extending her hand.  "Welcome, I am very glad that you are here.  I am sure you will find something that you like."  She motioned for Robert to come over with her hand. 

Within moments he was standing in front of Cody with a tray that contained 10 shot glasses each filled with a different kind of Naughty and Nice.  "Miss, what would you like?"

Jaci_Rain pointed to the glass of strawberry liquor.  "I know it looks innocent and all, but that one right there has the highest alcohol content of all of them.  A favorite of my mother's, but not recommended if you can't handle liquor well." 

She turned toward the band as they played an upbeat number, and smiled approvingly.  Money well spent. 

Brielle had received an invite in mail, usually she doesn't even look at them when she gets them but there was something different about this invite. It caught her attention, it must have been the designs and the colors on the invite. Someone actually took their time making it, the artwork was amazing. So Brie sat down and looked it over. Naughty and Nice Taste Testing Party was listed on top along with the details of the party she scrolled down looking at the hosts name Jaci_Rain. She thought for a moment then it hit her, Jaci was an ally up in New York. It sounded very enticing she hadn't been to New York in a while and was due to walk grace the streets of New York with her presence. She immediately picked up the phone and RSVP'ed.

She made her plans and arrived in New York just in time for the party. She was dressed in a fancy blue gown and all dolled up ready to enjoy the evening. She hailed a cab which brought her right up to the front door, she stepped out of the car walked up the stairs and knocked on the door....

Appelsap is looking at the Flyer in his hand, Naughty and Nice Taste Party. A taste party that a new kind of party, so Appelsap has to be there. So he took a plane to New York and got in his car and drove to Hotel. He got a nice suit out of his bag, it was black suit with a green shirt. When he was finished with getting ready for the party Appelsap walks out of the Hotel and enters the party next door. 

Walking to the shots Cody filled the bar with Appelsap starts drinking through al the different flavours and then he sees Brielle standing next to him. 

"Hey brielle, how are you doing? Have you already chosen a favorit shot?" he says while he takes a good look at her. 

"O my, Brielle you look amazing. I do think that the blue gown you are wearing is showing al the right things." 

Brielle is sitting down conversing with the host and a couple party guests, she is about to line up a second round of shots because by now so much time has passed she can't remember which one she liked the best. Just as she is about to pick up the first of the second round of drinks she spots Appelsap just as he notices her. He approaches her and they go about a bit of small talk about the party, the drinks and the overall atmosphere.

She listens as he comments on her gown.

"Do you like it"

She asks as she gives him a smile

"Oh by the way you look quite debonaire with your suit, I like it. Will you join me for the next round of tasting?"

At the arrival of Brielle, Jaci_Rain greeted her and joined her and Cody in a few drinks.  A lot of drinks, to be honest, but who was counting?  Who was even able to count at this point anyways? 

Appelsap arrived and joined the ladies at the bar and took part in the tasting.  Robert and Monica hurried around bringing more drinks when each round ended, keeping them quite busy.

"You guys should come to New York more often, sometimes its hard to find good drinking partners," Jaci_Rain stated with a wink.  "And please pass the word around, I think Naughty and Nice has stayed hidden in the family closet way too long, it is time it spreads it's wings. I can provide whatever quantity needed for a customer, I just need to reach a bigger customer base."
 

Brielle nods in agreement to Jaci, she knew more people needed to know about this place. I mean the drinks were amazing, by this point she even figured out that if you mix certain shots in your mouth together the flavors were amazing. She walked over to Appelsap with two shots in her hand a Strawberry and an Apple one she stand in front of him hands him one telling him to drink it but don't swallow it. She watches as he does exactly as she told him. 

"Now tilt your head back and open up."

She watches as he tilts his head back and opens up. Walking up behind him she takes the other shot dumping it into his mouth. There was so much liquor in his mouth that it began running out the sides of his mouth, he quickly closed his mouth and swallowed the mixture. Brie walked up next to him looked him in they eyes.

"I know... I told you, they are amazing mixed"

She walked over to go sit back down on her chair, but miss judge the distance and fell right on her ass. She could not stop laughing as she sat on the floor.

while Appelsap Is thinking about the tast of the drinks that he just got poured into his mouth by the lovely Brielle, he quickly walked overto @jacy_Rain. 

"I just wanted to say, why did you hide this al from the rest of the land?. And I don't only mean the drinks and this place but also you, you look beautiful tonight. " 

Then he hears someone fall down and there was someone laughing very hard. Looking around she sees Brielle on the ground but she doesn't seem to be said about it. 

"Jacy you should join us at the table when you get the chance, but as you can see I need to be a gallant and help a lady in need" he said with a smile. 

then he took a serving tray with shots and walked over to the table where Brielle was sitting on the floor. He placed the drinks on the table and got down to help Brielle up.

"You know that it's not very lady like to stay on the floor like this. " he said while helpen the Brielle up to get on the chair. 

Then Appelsap sits next to her and looks her in her eyes, "I've got to be very honest with you, I like the way you think. The combination of shots is a good idea, and ofcourse i like the combination you gave me there was apple in it. " he said with a smile

" I like everything with Apples in it, but now it's my turn to give you a mix drink" Appelsap takes to shots from the table to Brielle.

"You know what to do, put it in but don't swallow." he smiles, when she is doing al the things he did before. Then he takes his shot with the and he pours it into her mouth. 

"I call it CherryBerry, I hope it tastes as good as I think it sounds" Appelsap said while watching for any response from Brielle on his own mix. 

As Ocknotyn and his group of illustrious hooker mercenaries sit in an alleyway like zen buddhists. The commotion of moonshine connoisseurs and run down alcoholics is heard from the streets. He glances over to notice they are headed to a taste testing function of monumental proportions. 

He stands and becomes visible, sending a trusted servant woman to fetch his sample. Ocknotyn requested the mango using the voice that is not heard with the ear. The servant acknowledges.

-----

After a short time, the concubine made her way back to Ocknotyn, presenting his treat with respect. 

He takes his sip...

" Now shall I speak to thee, knowledge ancient beyond the thought of thy people. Know ye, that all of the future is an open book to those who can read. So, be sure the effects that ye bring forth are ever causes of more perfect effects, " Ocknotyn says while raising his glass. " Know ye, that the taste of this spirit, approaches perfection. "

Ocknotyn having enjoyed his time spent in the alley, calls to the God of Whiskey, who then teleports him and his haram of women to an off planet party house where he tells everyone of the all brandy and wine that has blessed his body..........
