Nipclub October 8th, 2026, Sekurity Update by Slinky, @Slinky_the_Cat, Sekurity Agent, Late Nite shift
Nipclub Autumn Leaves Viewing Party!
I hurried into the bar just in time, where Moo tempted me with a whiskey sour and delicious baked Brie in pastry. I realized I hadn’t changed into my Sekurity uniform, so I disappeared for a few minutes to go change into our tan uniforms with the park ranger hats.
Gator walked in muttering something about a lack of meteors.
Pearl was having a snack before her shift started. The baked brie was very popular!
Gator said the Draconid shower was active, and peak viewing occurred early evening, yet he saw nothing. Very disappointed.
Gator likes to keep up with all matters astronomical.
Mizz Bassie walked in, so I asked about Armani. Mizz Bassie said Armani was back to his old self despite still trying to dial in the insulin.
Pearl said hello to everyone before going behind the bar.
Gator talked about dark sky areas for seeing meteors and shooting stars, and Moo piped up and mentioned they have dark skies where she lives in Australia; they exist in Jakku as well. It’s fairly dark where Pearl is, so she can observe a large part of the night sky.
Pearl’s animals are all good, and the new orange kitty is getting bigger. They must have gotten him while he was still a kitten.
Angus was there and mentioned he had a hurricane warning at his house. We all wished him and his humans safety. He’s near the Gulf Coast of Mississippi, so hopefully it won’t be too bad.
We’re all praying for our pals in Florida.
Pearl served Autumn Ale beer, warm apple cider shots, and butternut squash bruschetta to everyone while we worried about the hurricanes. Pearl shared a photo of her Ember, a fluffy orange cat. I waved to P and Jeego while Mizz Bassie spoke to them.
Angus showed off his new fall wardrobe: a snappy plaid vest and a woven muffler in warm oranges and brown tones. Purrfect with all the pretty autumn leaves!
We admired pictures of Angus and Louis’ various costumes, and a few images of Louis and his late tabby brofur Heath. Heath was a legend!
Pearl poured the shots while Louis and Angus discussed playing some music. We were ready to party, LATE NITE style!
Louis started us off with Barry Manilow’s “Weekend in New England,” and Chicago’s “Color my World,” for some easy autumn vibes.
Pearl served more food: pizza with ricotta, sun-dried tomato, squash, and fresh sage, plus more drinks. The pizza was incredible! There is something about a wood-fired pizza oven.
Louis changed it up with rock music from In Living Color, “Cult of Personality.” What a great jam!
TJS was here and greeted everyone while we danced around the bar.
The Bangles “Hazy Shade of Winter” played while we drank and had fun while Pearl brought out a ginormous apple crumble pie cheesecake! After that, Pearl went home, and I stepped behind the bar for LATE LATE NITE.
Louis was still playing music while I served hot buttered rum drinks. Moo announced she had to go, so I walked her out to the black SUV with a box of snacks and a sippy cup with hot buttered rum for her to drink on the way home.
Kira showed up. What a pleasant surprise! We hadn’t seen her for over a year, maybe longer. I offered more snacks to everyone and asked about some other friends we hadn’t seen for a while.
Louis was still playing music, and I served some baked Brie pastries and cocktails. It was getting very late.
Amber and Precious popped in and out, announced they were leaving, so I prepared delicious leftovers for them to take.
Louis played his last song and posted his playlist. Only a few of us left! I poured the cognac before cleaning up the bar. There were a few stragglers.
I cleaned up, set out some snacks to go, set the alarm, and walked outside to my waiting helicopter. The air was crisp, cool, and it smelled like autumn!
Until next week!
