New Homecoming Queen Ads, all over the Dorms

::Having had a particularly not-so-pleasant day, Cally posts these latest posters with a vengeance. Frustrated Cally with a staple gun is not so much a cute sight, giving more of a "I'm glad I'm not that poster" sort of feeling::

::The posters read "Vote Cally for Homecoming Queen. She's cute. She's smart. She toasted zombies with a flamethrower. Honestly, is there a better candidate?"::

::There also appears to be a footnote which reads "Cally is also currently accepting any possible invitations for Homecoming dates. You too could have the sheer joy of spending the night with a possible Homecoming Queen!"::

[*is dead from the footnote.* That's one way to get a date!]

*has guilt like whoa*

(OOC: Hey, what happened with Archie???)

[ooc: Archie's going with Lana Lang. Cause he apparently had agreed to do so (before the kissing), and didn't really make that clear to Cally until today. So, yeah. Cally just got burnt. Again. And Hathor!Janet made her mood worse, so... yeah. Cally has decided to just openly advertise, cause she's going nuts.]

[OOC: Beka's not doing anything pressing at the moment, if Cally needs to talk. I'm working, so if you're awake, company gratefully accepted. But only if you want. I'd suggest drunkenness but they did that last night. ;)]

[ooc: Gonna have to take a rain check... Cally's currently set up talking with Vala in this time frame, and I'm about ready to pass out. Who knows, this could all lead to Cally having things screw up, again. Nothing seems to go right for her...]

[OOC: Voicemail me tomorrow. May have a hugely humorous solution to the HC date problem.]

[ooc: I am both intrigued and scared. ::snicker:: Will do.]

[OOC: Grrr. Angers Marty for some reason. Cally should not be treated this way! She does drunken Rover impressions and ends up handcuffed to Jedi Knights! She deserves a nice date for homecoming without having to advertise.]

[ooc: She does deserve better. But so far, it's just simply not worked out for the poor girl. ::sniff::]

[OOC: Marty's feeling rather big brotherish towards Cally even though he hasn't interacted much with her. Feel free to ~~put out a hit on people who break your heart~~ ask for advice.]

[ooc: Ha! Everyone feels big brother/sister-ish towards Cally. It's a blessing and a curse. She might just do that, depending on how today and tommorow goes for her.]

Xander, fresh from dumping rather a lot of ~~useless crap~~ beloved possessions in his dorm room and now carrying a rather crammed-to-the-gills laundry bag over his shoulder, sees Cally as she's stapling up a poster in the 4th floor hallway. [*]

Oh, God. Homecoming. Right, because the last one of those he tried didn't turn into a complete formalwear-flukey kiss-your-best-friend-who-is-not-your-datey trainwreck of massive proportions.

On the other hand, there's a certain air of desperation all over the school from those who don't have dates yet, and not just the girls. Desperation makes Xander twitchy. Granted, so does caffeine, too much sugar, and... being awake. Still... he gets the distinct feeling that datelessness for this particular event is likely to land him firmly in the same circle of Loser Geek Hell as, well. Broots. Just for instance.

And it's not like the ladies are tearing his door down ~~this time, thank God~~, or like this particular fellow desperate escapee from Loser Geek Hell is exactly hard on the eyes.

"What exactly does the sheer joy of spending the night with a possible Homecoming Queen entail?" he asked, walking up behind Cally. "I could maybe pull it off, if you don't mind your date wearing a borrowed-with-no-intention-of-returning--" He eyed his laundry bag. "--very very wrinkled, and possibly cursed tuxedo."

[ooc - which, er, is me godmode-ing a bit, and can be moved somewhere else if you prefer. Since the posters are all over the dorms, it seems reasonable IC that Xander could run across Cally while she's still putting some of them up, and OOC to branch directly off the same post for continuity's sake, rather than starting a new one - but only if it works for you.]

[ooc - also, someday I will choose a tense and stick with it. Today is apparently not that day.]

[ooc: Sure, we'll just assume that Cally, after her irksome visit to Cameron, decided to put more posters up this evening.]

::Cally turns around, smirking::

Well, the sheer joy is just, well... It's a marketing gimmick. All I'm asking is someone nice to dance and talk with so I don't get all lonely when everyone else is slow dancing.

::looks up at Xander, and smiles::

Cute doesn't hurt, either.

Xander looks worried. Well, no, he looks fake-worried, which is ok, because that's the look he's going for. "I can do nice. Cute might be beyond the magical powers of cursed formalwear."

::her smile turns into a grin::

I'm sure I could deal with cursed formalwear. The gods know I've already handled worse around here.

So... ::gives a little wave from her wrist:: I'm Cally.

*aims for 'charming' with smile; hopes to at least hit 'not smarmy'*

"Xander. Occasionally 'Harris' but mostly only my roommate calls me that. When he's feeling friendly."

[ooc 1 - note to self; it helps when you don't try to log in as notsouledyet, given that YOU ARE NOT HIM AND DON'T KNOW HIS PASSWORD SO WTF IS WRONG WITH YOUR BRAIN? -- for serious; I share this fact because it ~~makes me look stupid~~ is amusing. I keep trying to log in as someone I am not in fact playing.]

[ooc 2 - deeply sorry about slowness from hell; I went from vacation with no access at all, to work after being gone for 4 days, which might as well be no access at all. *stares at pile of Things For Tomorrow and cries*]

Well, I'm just Cally. ::smiles back::

So, cursed formalwear aside... You, uh, want to go to Homecoming with me?

Xander pats his laundry bag and smiles. "Assuming the tux is actually in here somewhere, yeah, that sounds like it could be fun. Or, you know, at least more fun than a barrel of zombies."

::laugh::

Yeah, definitely more fun than a barrel full of zombies. But I'm not sure... what if they were zombie monkeys? I don't know how I could compete with the fun of a barrel of zombie monkeys. ::smirk::

I'd be honored if you'd be my date.

Oh sure, you'd think a barrel of zombie monkeys would be fun, but when you try to make a chain out of 'em by linking their arms, they'd just pull out of the sockets and kind of go 'squish'.

Not that, uh. I've thought about this in embarassingly geeky detail.

I probably need to do that buying tickets thing, don't I? *makes note to hunt up that ~~post~~ Kane girl after he finishes his laundry*

::smiles:: Detail is good. Hey, atleast I know you're thinking about something.

But yeah, tickets would be a good idea. Oh, and... ::leans in to whisper in Xander's ear::

My dress is orange, just so you know.

::leans back out::

Just don't tell anybody. ::gestures at her all-black attire:: I kinda want to surprise some people with my sudden infusion of color. ::smile::
