happy holidays! ryan is both excited and a little anxious about this event as he wants everything to go well. of course he knows it won't go perfectly, because nothing does and kids are involved, but hopefully it will be a good time overall! he will be wearing that beautiful suit pictured to the left (many thanks to the photo shoppers of the internet)! though the jacket likely won't last more than an hour, in part because bowling in a suit isn't the easiest and also because he's wearing the amazing ugly sweater that natalia picked out for him! ryan is gonna be in manager mode for much of the time, but since he has two other managers around and plenty of employees, that more often means he'll be working the crowd: catching up with the regulars, introducing himself to newbies, and going above and beyond with the customer service so he can ensure everyone there becomes patron that comes back. his social battery is full and he is gonna use a whole hell of a lot of it, so know that if your character was there, they definitely got a moment with ryan eventually!

pretty much all the other members of the love family (there's a list of them in his info!) will be around through the day. at some point ryan's five year old nephew, caleb, will be attached to his hip and his back and his shoulders because the kid is always down to be carried around by his funcle ryan. later in the day, ryan and natalia will sneak off... to bowl by themselves, that's all! and of course, everyone is more than welcome to stay after the event is over for cosmic bowling until close, which of course has a holiday theme this month with the lighting colors and nothing but upbeat holiday music playing.

sorry this post wasn't up earlier but it's not like any of us could have gotten here to plot earlier anyway! ryan and i are here to help facilitate any lanes fun you and your wonderful characters can think of - within reason because he doesn't want kids getting ideas on any bad behavior allowed at the lanes. but when little eyes aren't watching, let's make some ridiculousness happen!
